Can't really say I agree with you.
For one, most people that become obese are overfed as children when they don't know any better, so blaming them for the obesity that was thrust upon them by heartless and inconsiderate parents, is just like a step too far.
For two, the nutritional content of food has decreased dramatically in the last 40 years, so many people could be induced to overeat due to lack of essential nutrients.
and for three, there is an entire industry of people with PhDs who are paid good money to craft food that never satiates.
People that become obese in the western world are getting hit with a threefer. Adding blame to them on top of that? It's just too much.
Oh no, poor ignorant supposedly functional adults, totally unable to change anything about their behaviors or learn something new! Awww poor wittle ~~babies~~ actual adults.
Stop infantilizing people. Shit like this is half the reason there are immature adults that do not know how to take accountability for anything.
Not every obese person is the person you are picturing in your head.
I'm not saying don't be hateful, I'm saying understand who you're hating first. Be a little selective.
Yes, some people do have glandular problems or underlying health issues.
No, that is not the vast majority of obese people.
Again, stop infantilizing grown-ass adults.
