Comment on Lithium-ion battery waste fires are increasing, and vapes are a big part of it
CmdrShepard42@lemm.ee 2 weeks agoYou aren’t going to look for them because you just grabbed whatever image you found from a Google search and have no clue what you’re even talking about.
If these even exist, the only reason why a black market would exist for vapes is because of the idiotic bans that created it by killing the legitimate market further proving my point. Furthermore your argument that they’re “stopped at customs” contradicts your previous argument that they’re being marketed and sold to kids since they aren’t being sold at all.

A random Google search would find you these articles:
bangkokpost.com/…/vapes-ape-comics-to-lure-kids
dailymail.co.uk/…/FDA-cracks-e-cigarettes-child-f…
I’m not going to discuss recent history revisionism, circular argumentation, or the illusion that your country is the only one in the world. Have fun!

Imagine that, your previous images were pulled from an article claiming these are being sold in Thailand by Chinese companies just like I thought, so your argument is that vapes should be banned in the US because of what may or may not be happening in Thailand?
How convenient for you and your argument since that means you only need to find one example of a bad thing happening in the world and can then apply that bad example to millions of other unrelated products sold elsewhere in the world. What happened to your argument claiming that these were being stopped by US Customs? That so quickly morphed into “it doesn’t matter if these products were actually shipped and sold here because Thailand!”
Your other article, from the rag that is the Daily Mail, claims that Squid Games is a children’s TV show, and only lists one western company receiving a notice (which they incorrectly called a “Canadian” company rather than a California based company in true Daily Mail fashion) for having a vape that resembles a banana. How convincing since we all know how crazy and insaitiable children get when they see something that slightly resembles a banana. They gotta have it!
Didn’t you already say that when you claimed you “didn’t get those images from a quick Google search” and “wouldn’t bother to verify the legitimacy of these products” even though you just now claimed to do a quick Google search to find the very articles that your images came from? Why such inconsistencies?

You’re right. Please tell me more.
