Disagreeing Requires Strength
There is a glaring focus on regulating nicotine products while the significant issue of fentanyl, which claims 100,000 lives annually, remains neglected.

Individuals lacking the physical or social capacity to dispute prevailing views may choose compliance over confrontation.
