People are smoking and getting cancer worldwide, there might not be a reason to highlight specifically Cuba. But anyone doing it with some regularity is at risk
Exactly. It's not like I'm saying that people do not have a fucked up relationship with stimulants under capitalism.
I'm saying that people are unlikely to give up on stimulants any time soon, so liberal regimes banning that shit will lead to nothing but average people having an even worse life.
You can eat or vaporize marijuana, you cannot enjoyably eat or vaporize cigarettes, which also have a bunch of extra shit in them, and which have a significantly higher cancer risk vs marijuana

In my country alcohol is already heavily regulated, and it is illegal to advertise it.
There are no "corner stores" where you can buy anything heavier than 5% beer.
That's different than a full ban though.

Only way to live.
Number and potency of carcinogens, for starters
you could make that same argument for coffee vs marijuana though smoking shit makes carcinogens thanks incomplete combustion
