đŸ‡«đŸ‡· The French vape market is in danger – and with it the future of European vapers!

That’s exactly what I associated this with :hugs:
But I have referred to this many times :thinking:
You know, I am precisely not the one who “just” bought something :grin:
Only positively forward and onward :crossed_fingers::right_facing_fist::left_facing_fist:

But these are not specifically protesting against the tobacco law.

We don’t take it literally. But it is also included in the list of restrictions.

This concerned care somehow never extends to our livelihood
 . It is annoying that the current authority is incapable of treating adult society as adults! What business is it of anyone’s whether I vape or smoke if I am not harming others with it? I am an adult, why can’t I make the decisions regarding my life, my health, and my body myself? Am I even a free person if I cannot make these decisions for myself?

Let’s not abandon the French ones; since everything else closed down in the neighborhood, I’ve been shopping there!

Of course you count for the state. You are data and tax as long as you live.

In a French Discord/Facebook group, following the news about the announced taxes and the cessation of online sales, there was already a debate about how the main goal is not to penalize vapers, but rather to exclude online shops from this huge business. Obviously, not everything has been decided yet, but the signs are telling. :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

I don’t like Origo. But unfortunately, they write a bit more detailed here.

Living through many storms, it is tragicomic to experience the lobby that they try to force down our throats, citing health and environmental protection, regulating, and hiding in its shadow, knowing and feeling that it represents the economic interests of a narrow circle.

When they said if you don’t like it, you can leave. But where to go???

Because here I am Balkan, there Western. Here left-wing, there right-wing. I am green, I am an environmental polluter. Materialist, idealist. Here they don’t like my face, there they don’t like my religion, what I do, what I want to do, how I do it.

I want to live, not just survive! A hobby, passion, and a job for myself. But no, because something always sticks in someone’s craw. :roll_eyes: My passion/hobby/work is dangerous, deadly, ridiculous, unhealthy, incompatible, despicable, subject to lawsuits, stigmatized, worthless. The negative voices are louder in the media.

Kodály method: stand up, straighten yourself, deep breath into the lungs, lift your head, smile and say: To hell with it. I don’t give a damn, we’ll solve it like we always have. Not nervously, angrily, just letting go.

We are here together in community. WE WILL SOLVE IT. :grin:

I already signed the petition earlier, based on a newsletter from a French distributor!

Of course, signed!

But their flavors really haven’t tasted like much lately, or maybe I’m just impatient (10 days) :grin:

Hi!

In my opinion, this generalization doesn’t hold water! Yes, there are good French flavors! Let’s not stick to, for example, the well-known Solub, which used to be able to produce good things, but after the market boomed, it only threw slop at us. I suggest you experiment with brands you don’t know, and last but not least, communicate with the members of the Community who are experienced and helpful. I did the same, for example, I found a gem in the Columette brand name, which I think can compete with the well-known big ones!
