If cigarettes are so harmful, why did almost everyone smoke them in the 20th century?
In 1946, as health concerns began to rise, tobacco giants launched one of the most calculated marketing deception campaigns in history. They turned trusted authorities—doctors—into their primary salesmen with slogans claiming doctors preferred their brands.

The narrative presented to the public often serves whoever profits from it the most. Learn to look beyond the surface, question authority, and think independently.
