I suppose that’s a way to see it. In my experience being around hippies and ultra left people, a weirdly common view is that tobacco and weed are completely harmless and it should be allowed everywhere.
But that might have been them talking from their addicted perspective?
No, most of the views in this thread aren’t right wing views. Not allowing smoking in public because it’s hazardous to other health would be considered more of a left wing ideal because it puts the health of the working class as a whole over the desire of the individual to poison themselves.
So many of these comments are actually just extreme views that many people actually agree with. Most seeming to be left wing oriented. Threads like this are always stupid because the author is just trying to start controversy in the community and most of the commenters aren’t going to post their ACTUAL right wing thoughts because they know they will get downvoted and harassed for them.

Could also be that most people in this community don’t really hold right wing views, being leftists. Or if they do hold them, they aren’t really aware of them. I can’t imagine anyone here holding full on reactionary views and being aware of it, and we aren’t going to have economic right wing ideas here, what with the whole communism thing.
Is that a right wing view? I always saw the right wing view as “fuck you, I can give lung cancer to whomever I want.”

To be fair, this is lemmygrad
