CreateDebate is a social debate community built around ideas, discussion and democracy.
If this is your first time checking out a debate, here are some quick tips to help get you started:
Arguments with the highest score are displayed first.
Argument replies (both in favor and in opposition) are displayed below the original argument.
To follow along, you may find it helpful to show and hide the replies displayed below each argument.
To vote for an argument, use these icons:
You have the power to cast exactly one vote (either up or down) for each argument.
Once you vote, the icon will become grayed out and the argument's score will change.
Yes, you can change your vote.
Debate scores, side scores and tag scores are automatically calculated by an algorithm that primarily takes argument scores into account.
All scores are updated in real-time.
To learn more about the CreateDebate scoring system, check out the FAQ.
When you are ready to voice your opinion, use the Add Argument button to create an argument.
If you would like to address an existing argument, use the Support and Dispute link within that argument to create a new reply.
As someone who might have thyroid cancer due to smoking and genetics, I DON'T CARE! People don't need to pump their bodies full of addictive carcinigens, they need addiction care to quit smoking.
Yes because I am trying to protect people from harm. I learned the hard way how dangerous smoking is, it's a drug.
But if you’re to be consistent as in you’re trying to protect people from harm , why not apply the same criteria to fast foods as the damage they cause people is costing out health systems a fortune?

Blatant appeal to hypocrisy with no relevance to what the other person said. Believe it or not moron, one can point out the dangers of smoking without being morally obligated to list every possible cause of death in the universe.
Right 👌 So by the O P wanting to add sin tax on cigarettes because of damage done to health it’s “hyocritical “ to point out damage junk food does to kids and parents 🤣🤣🤣 You’re a moron of spectacular proportions
with no relevance to what the other person said.
Most things do go over your head , yes
Believe it or not moron,
You’re the one using an alt account because of your recent humiliation at stating scientists had invented a drum roll 🥁
Time machine 😂😂😂

Terrible red herring there buddy , I never said she had to list every possible cause , I said she was being inconsistent singling out smoking for a special tax all because she has a dog in that fight , if it was fast food that damaged her she would switch quick enough .

Ahahahahahaha! Oh, the pure irony. No, dumbass, YOU were making an appeal to HIS purported hypocrisy on the sole basis that his debate is about cigarettes and not junk food. It's commonly known as the tu quoque fallacy, or "whataboutism".
Jesus Christ, you're so astonishingly stupid. Even when I explain precisely what you have done wrong you somehow still manage to misunderstand.

Nonsense , I never said the debate should be about junk food , I said a sin tax on one is not hypocritical without a tax on the other
. It's commonly known as the tu quoque fallacy, or "whataboutism".
I know , which is why I’m not guilty of it
Jesus Christ, you're so astonishingly stupid. Even when I explain precisely what you have done wrong you somehow still manage to misunderstand.
But you believe in time machines 🤣🤣 My argument is perfectly rational and has no valid defence
Nonsense , I never said the debate should be about junk food
Oh God you're such an IDIOT. Lol. You literally told him that he should be concerned about junk food without establishing his opinion on junk food, and without acknowledging that his debate is about cigarettes. That's a tu quoque fallacy you bumbling fucking halfwit.
I didn’t mention my concern at all I addressed consistency
It’s not (a tu quoque fallacy)
This is what you wrote:-
But if you’re to be CONSISTENT as in you’re trying to protect people from harm , why not apply the same criteria to fast foods
This is what Wikipedia says a tu quoque fallacy is:-
Tu quoque (/tjuːˈkwoʊkwi, tuːˈkwoʊkweɪ/;[1] Latin for "you also"), or the appeal to hypocrisy, is a fallacy that intends to discredit the opponent's argument by asserting the opponent's failure to act CONSISTENTLY in accordance with its conclusion(s).
Go kill yourself, you fucking pointless halfwit. You are literally more stupid than a wet bag of onions.
Read it again and weep at the destruction of your nonsense .....
You might actually want to keep smoking as it may decrease the risk of thyroid cancer ....
.No risk factors other than ionizing radiation have been identified for differentiated thyroid cancer. Studies of the relationship of thyroid cancer with cigarette smoking have been contradictory. Most studies of alcohol consumption have found no association with thyroid cancer.

I have once again been publicly ridiculed by Lord Nom and chastised both for my insubordination and for my rejection of his far superior intellectual gifts. You can always tell when this happens because I start inventing my own quotes.
Very honest of you good buddy. Perhaps we can be friends after all.
Ha , ha tough luck buddy game , set match to me .....
.
Smoking may decrease the incidence of thyroid cancer ......fucking ouch 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Fast food and bad nutrition may increase the risk of thyroid cancer ..... it’s so easy to checkmate you every time 🤣🤣👌

As someone who might have thyroid cancer due to smoking and genetics I DON'T CARE!
Your reaction is merely due to the fact that you may have thyroid cancer , I’d wager before this was the case you would have strongly resisted such a tax.
I don’t believe you either way as you also post up a debate topic which places you once again as a victim fighting against yet another imagined outrage against yourself
People don't need to pump their bodies full of addictive carcinigens, they need addiction care to quit smoking.
People don’t need to fill their bodies full of fast food and do so why not dractically increase sin tax on fast foods as the damage it does to people is widespread?
Thyroid cancer runs in my family, and while I am most certainly not 100 percent sure, it is a possibility. I will keep you updated when I get my results if you want. Eith way, I am hoping Jesus blesses you with good health, and and don't let yourself be addicted to smoking, like I am.
Thyroid cancer runs in my family, and while I am most certainly not 100 percent sure, it is a possibility.
Hopefully the results are negative
I will keep you updated when I get my results if you want.
Yes , please do
either way, I am hoping Jesus blesses you with good health
Jesus has nothing to do with good health otherwise babies wouldn’t die of cancer , normally at this stage a Christian invokes the mystery card by stating “ well god works in mysterious ways “ how does babies with cancer prove “justify” the claim Jesus gives “good health “?
, and and don't let yourself be addicted to smoking, like I am.

If a person chooses to take that first cigarette even though thousands of health professionals constantly telling you it will someday kill you, then YOU ARE RESPONSIBLE for the choice you made.
If a person chooses to abuse alcohol, and someday becomes an alcoholic? It's his fault and not a disease. The Left refuses to hold people accountable for irresponsible choices in life. They want to force tax payers to enable other's irresponsibility.

Hello From:
Uhhh, not really.. It's true.. I AM ultimately responsible for the choices I make.. But, I was 14 when I started smoking.. Marlboro's were advertised EVERYWHERE so that was my brand.. Did you ever see a Marlboro commercial?? Manly men smoked Marlboro's..
Nobody knew back then that it was bad.
So, although I AM responsible for my personal being, the tobacco industry had something to do with it..
In terms of money, it seems that it would be CHEAPER for the government to help me STOP smoking, than it would cost to treat lung disease. You know me.. Math and all..
