      This video is unbearable to watch. It's even worse than the DARE crap in the 80's. If this is your proof that there are ads directed at kids I'm sorry but it ain't it.

        Did you even watch it? I don't remember, but I don't think it's anti-vape or anything. It just discusses how they've forgotten why anti-smoking ads worked. It's largely a media analysis channel.

              You should watch it again. It is anti vape lol. You don't even know what you're linking .

              Which is fine, I'm not a fan of vapes, but that video is on the same level as dare if you can even get through the annoying narrator.

              Still waiting for a child targeted ad example.

                Rewatching it, it literally uses DARE as an example that doesn't work. It also talks about smoking weed in a non-negative stance.

                It's literally just about effective messaging, politics, and history, not about the product. I'd recommend getting past five seconds. There's some negative statements about smoking, but the only negative statements about vaping is that nicotine addiction is on the rise now.
