Idk some see it as using it in excess due to body image issues in Hollywood but a lot it seems like its always a thinly veiled shot at the body positive movement whenever I see this mentioned. The South park episode I'm sure helped fuel this. Hell of a lot of moralizing over ozempic in general and people not losing weight the "right way". thats-why-im-confused

Mandem perceive it as a sin and want people to be "punished" for it. Its always cited when they say "my tax payer money goes into it". Now that there is something that aids this theyre..... Somehow upset thats-why-im-confused Like some sick twisted karmic scale?

In KKKri$$tianity, especially the puritan strain of KKKri$$tianity which is foundational to amerikkkan so-called "culture," suffering, deprivation, and persecution are holy. The dialectic between this and the fact that amerikkkan kkkrakkkers are perhaps the least suffering, deprived, and persecuted group of all time leads to a profound level of derangement.

Selective as hell too. Trump has built probably the biggest deficit in US history by a single sitting president and filed for bankruptcy. He isn't seen as a corrupt failure like those African states. Man married multiple or so times. Not seen as a failure there. Assaulted several women. Nope not a moral fail. Indicted multiple times nope. Likely a massive pedo, not a failure. He can never fail hard enough on every one of the moral failings because he'll be embraced by amerikkka still

To the amerikkkan KKKri$$tian, all that just goes to show how persecuted, and therefore holy, he is

This is hilarious to me. Mandem talking about apologizing for being white while looting the fuck outta countries and using identity and moralism of being "democracy" as a means to justify atrocities and genocides. Somehow our eyes are lying to us
