Why are they obsessed with cigarettes?
>>84880492
Because they smoke a lot
>>84880492
because literally everyone in Asia smokes
>>84880545
smoking is actually alright for you in moderation - like anything
it actually varies from person to person who cigs give cancer to
japan has the highest smoking rate yet low rates of lung cancer
>>84880545
Socioeconomics
>>84880545
Cigarettes rule loser
>>84880545
it keeps away all the dolphin meat radiation
>>84880602
80% of lung cancers are directly correlated to smoking you absolute retard
>>84880492
There are more smokers in China (400+ million) than there are people living in the United States.
>>84880492
In the US/West, they realized how influential movies can be on kids and teens. So a bunch of studios decided to be conscience of this, for example there's no smoking whatsoever allowed in any Disney production.
I guess that never happened in these Asian countries.
>>84880690
You know who didn't smoke? Hitler.
>>84880690
it's actually a lie
most of the cancer in the USA is caused by nuclear testing
the population of greece
about 30% of the whole population smokes yet there is almost not the high rate of cancer in america and canada
tobbaco got mostly scapegoated if you actually care enough to look and do some research
>>84880800
>most of the cancer in the USA is caused by nuclear testing
You're gonna need a source on a claim like that bucko. If that were the case then lung cancer would be highly concentrated in the southwest. And wouldn't Japan have had a spike in lung cancer post-WWII?
>>84880685
it all adds up
>>84880545
It's not as heavily regulated as it is in North America so it's marketed up to their eyeballs.
Also cheaper over there, like a lot of other things. ie. soda and beer are cheaper than drinking water
>>84880778
Yh it's like the asian actors are always chainsmoking in movies yet they never show the brand

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_weapons_testing
>These tests include 904 at the Nevada Test Site, 106 at the Pacific Proving Grounds and other locations in the Pacific, 3 in the South Atlantic Ocean, and 17 other tests taking place in Amchitka Alaska, Colorado, Mississippi, New Mexico and Nevada
do you think you can explode nuclear weapons this close to home without ill effects?
the falloff from the bombs would cover the whole united states in a matter of weeks
>>84880492
because nothing is more tragic than chow yun fat going from a badass gangster that lights his cigs with counterfeit 100 dollar bills to a crippled janitor
>>84880800
wrong friendo
nukes arent what you think they are
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMqHTbXm3rs
but keep sucking that kike dick
>>84880690
Then why don't the japos get cancer? They smoke like chimneys.
kino
>>84880864
Japan had a spike in leukemia after the nukes.
>>84880983
>>84880781
Hitler was a shit artist and was never aesthetic
>>84880492
i know in korea's case they pretty much promoted drinking and smoking cigs so that people would be less tempted to do drugs. 5 years ago, bottles of soju were a dollar and a pack of smokes were $2.50. i think smokes are around 5 bucks now but still you get my point
>>84881063
Where do you stats come from? And are japanese cigarettes as toxic as in the west? It all depends what you put inside.
>>84880545
I think asian cigs taste better
>>84880492
smoking is alpha.
chinks don't like girly faggots that are vegan and drink soy lattes all day while they vape.
>>84880492
How else are we suppose to know who the bad ass tough guy is?
>>84881012
>1 hour and 30 minutes
>>84881012
all your video do was prove my point lol
this guy talks about shipping nuclear waste all over USA in trains
>>84881228
in their movies the filter almost always looks white, not that disgusting brown color
what brand is it in the korean flicks?
>>84880602
This. If you don't believe me, look up your cancer risk after like 5 "pack years" or so of smoking. If you keep it to like a pack a week, your cancer risk is barely elevated past that of a non smoker. You might be a little phlegmatic like me, but that goes away after a few weeks of abstaining (which I do)
I've smoked socially for a decade without getting addicted.
they are everywhere
>>84881201
Just observational. All bars and most restaurants out here people smoke in. Every japanese person older than 30 that i've met so far smokes
>>84880545
it's nature reaching towards equilibrium due to the overpopulation of asian countries
>>84881287
I can't speak for Korea but I live in Japan
We can still smoke in bars and restaurants here. Lots of choices. From 0.1mg to stronger. Lots of flavours, menthol, cherry, strawberry on top of lots of regular types of tobacco
It also works on around 5 dollers for 20 which compared to the UK is cheap.
>>84881087
I'm feeling such a lovely warmth.
>>84880690
You must one of those sheeples who accept to be vaccinated.
Enjoy you autism!
>>84880545
Smoking looks cool and is a mild stimulant.
Too dumb to not smoke. Wait till vaping hits over there
>>84881087
I saw this movie cuz a friend recommended it to me. I thought it was fucking stupid, everything felt so contrived I hated the romance.
What do you see in this movie?
because they didn't had the yuppie health phase
>>84880980
weak bait, there is no connection between your claim and your "source". bo back to >>>/pol/
>>84883195
>What do you see in this movie?
Visual beauty
>>84881583
fuck your observations

This and Chungking Express are the best movies that Wong Kar Wai has ever made, it's too bad he will never make a movie like that again.
Reminder that "smoking is cool" was literally pushed by jews. For real for once.
>>84883555
Or it was just seen as "cool" before any agenda was pushed
Even kids think they look cool with things in their mouth like a lollipop, whistle pops, icepop stick, toothpick, straw and when they see adults with cigarettes
>>84881305
How would you know unless you totally stopped?
>>84881087
>that scene where the mute guywatches the home videos of his dad after he died
Choked up a little bit, senpai.
>>84881087
Is there a torrent for this thats any better than the youtube version?
