TikTok’s Poison Pill

I find it hard to try to blame the cigarette (or any) companies in a world where maximizing money is encouraged. Don't hate the player, hate the game. I'm not trying to justify anything, but there would be another tiktok instantly exploiting the opportunity if tiktok would vanish.

I do, in fact, hate the player for doing something bad or evil. The game exists because there are players willing and wanting to play.

Does it help? Would it maybe be more useful to focus on the people that run the game, and try to make them change the game by changing rules?

I'm perfectly happy blaming people for doing immoral things even though they are legal. "I'm doing it unless someone stops me" is not a mark of morality.

I can do both. Hate isn't finite.
