MODERATORS
You can just admit your take was bad and you didn't read the article or watch the show but insist on talking anyways.
I still don't think it's a bad take (despite all the... opinions people shared with me) and I didn't read the article because it's in Mandarin lol (did you read the article? >_>). The ironic thing is I only watched the most recent episode where it portrays smoking as normal and then it gets banned. So, if it was banned because of this episode I understand and agree with that because cigarettes slowly kill people in fucked up ways and this episode portraying it as a normal thing that everyone does is extremely irresponsible. Cigarettes and tobacco are shitty, awful drugs governments banning their portrayal in media that is broadcast for public consumption is saving lives and preventing suffering. Have ever seen someone dying of cancer? I have. It's fucking awful. So I'm not going to change my "take" on this no matter how big of a selfish asshole anyone shows themselves to be.
I'm also not going to stop replying if you keep trying to goad me on so you should just block me. It's really quite simple. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
