>>31712Maybe too, most people aren't smokers so there's less concern over people using it nowadays. More people nowadays get told that fatness is bad, it's a sign of diabetes and heart attacks. We are more exposed to anti-fat messages nowadays versus anti-smoking stuff which is nowadays more here and there.
Anti-obesity stuff happens a lot more nowadays over anti smoking PSAs. So many documentaries, tv episodes/shows in recent times explain why we're getting fatter and how all this food we're eating is making us bigger and bigger and the horrors of a fatter world. This is what most people have as a thought system now. I think this may be why we focus more on fatness over smoking now.
I also see a moralizing attitude towards fatness, I think we often believe that it's our duty that tell people they must be healthy, they must eat right, exercise and not do drugs and we must nag them and not stop until they agree to be healthy. If I encounter a smoker, I must nag them to quit smoking. Encounter a fat person eating a mountain of food, you must tell them to eat a salad and run a mile. We can't accept the choices other people make with their lives, we must always be butting in and telling people what to do. Whether it's sexual activities they are doing, whether it's their diets, whether it's their beliefs, gender identity, sexuality, etc. We must always butt in and nag people.
