Obesity is unhealthy, why is it being embraced?

You know how we get rid of the obese? Make it mandatory for Uber Eats and Doordash drivers to demand every customer they deliver to to give 20 pushups. If they cant do it, then the driver has to throw the order on the ground and stomp on it, then charge a $10 stomping fee.

Fatness = solved.

You are right, Galen. Good show, my boy.

All about dem votes.

Don't eat sugar. Don't eat carbohydrates. Eat protein and healthy fats. You'll be better off in a number of ways.

I wish there was something that conveyed tone on here because reading that back I sound really outraged. Do you really try to cut out all carbohydrates? Or just a general trend?

I want to gain weight so I don't really want to cut anything out, but I try to steer away from carbs. The thing I find most frustrating is changes over the past years to things adding in glucose/fructose syrup. It seems to appear in lots of things now where it wasn't before.

I thought that was a good statement I saw the other day on Twitter:

"More and more, it seems like #PoorMetabolicHealth to this generation is just like #Smoking to the last.

Most everyone concedes it's bad, they just don't want to acknowledge it's really as bad as it is.

Lots of focusing on other issues that are substantially less dangerous."

Obesity signals the ultimate consumer

If you're a consumer you're protected and coddled and glorified. Even when (not if) it reaches grotesque proportions. Ya know what, life is pain. Life is suffering. Suck it up, Stop stuffing your face w poison. Get off your moribund ass and move - the more vigorous the better (for you and society in general). We need to stop coddling the weak and self destructive.

There are a lot of fat Americans. They have money to spend. Businesses want a fat American to feel good about spending that money with them.

Yeah, this^ is the reason.

69% of adult Americans are overweight or obese. That is not going to change in a positive direction anytime soon if ever in our cushy society. It's not good business to alienate the vast majority of the population.

I actually agree with this.

But I fear one thing holding a lot of people back is that they have so many other significant challenges in their lives, that the thought of taking on one more like exercise or a fitness plan, or changing their diet to something less pleasurable, is just more than they can take on right now.

If you look at the demographics of the overweight, I bet my hypothesis is born out.

Additionally, we're asking them to voluntarily populate spaces (gyms, trails, etc) with people like the ones in this thread who clearly think their body represents some kind of moral failing and that their bodies are a direct indicator of their health and diet. It's not exactly welcoming - I wouldn't want to do it.

I think going on restrictive diets is a big reason that many people have damaged/slowed metabolisms, and honestly a legitimate reason that they may not be able to lose weight. It's crazy the way your body responds to/tries to compensate for restriction.

We live in a clown world. The same people that say that fat is healthy are the ones who are terrified that fit and healthy 10 year olds are going to die from covid.

Clown world dude. People are stupid. It's just a sad reality.

This is nonsense, Do a study on recovered anorexics and bulimics , they may have residual problems, but this messed up metabolism isn't one of them. People who did voluntary, or forced hunger strikes, no messed up metabolism.

You are the equivalent of a doping apologist.

Here’s hoping the judge sees through Mary Cain’s fat acceptance programming and metoo herding mentality.

The action starts at 2:09

Because fat people are weak. They are generally weak minded and thus people feel sorry for them.

Plus the government realized that fat people benefit their agenda. They keep the fast food industry thriving and will pay the hospitals money. Anything that aids the economic powers will be embraced, regardless of whether it hurts peoples health. That will be ignored. But yet they beat to death covid propoganda because big pharma pays them off and makes like a billion dollars per day from covid vaccines. Time to wake up.

Want. Buy. Have.

Fatter and fatter.
