Its not an opinion its a fact. Calling it a "culture" does not defer from the fact that the vast majority of that "99% of ppl" are mindless followers who are easily manipulated.
They don't spend more money on a pack of BackWoods than another brand because its a "culture"... Thats just an excuse.
Backwoods were around 5-10 years ago when EVERYONE in the bay smoked swishers, but only a fraction of smokers bought them.
Thats like trying to argue that ppl buy Nikes instead of Walmart knock-offs because they are all "sneaker heads".
