Does it seem like celebs get more heat for ozempic usage more than the obvious steroid usage for roles?

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". 
I think, hypothetically, there's a contrast between the two: just taking steroids won't make your muscles inflate, you have to work out at least a little to actually get gains, which is where the steroids come in you can recover and exercise more using steroids. Meanwhile, ozempic sounds as close to a miracle drug as can be: you just take an injection and start losing weight (maybe more than 1 I'm not that familiar with the treatment plan) so I think I agree most with the user who suggests its due to Christianity, because the protestant work ethic that infests western culture results in people taking the idea of "working for something" more generously than "getting something for free"
Still gotta put the diet work in with ozempic. And exercise is also advised to maintain long term weight loss to not lose as much muscle otherwise which would be undesirable.
And tbh.... I'm gonna sound controversial but PEDs and steroids kinda are miracle drugs tbh. Its just that they can have really bad side effects. But the shit you see with em especially when they're hyper responders is nuts. I've seen people come back from injuries in a short time on em. Recovering from working out 3 to 4 times a day and it not being diminishing returns is crazy. The numbers powerlifters are hitting nowadays is loco. Seeing athletes still do impressive things while injured as well....idk like in terms of bodybuilding and I guess some strength sports for instance if you aren't a hyper responder you aren't gonna be a ronnie coleman but for other performance benefits maaaaaan I don't maaaaan if you see this shit especially with a proper regime
Honestly, not always. In over a year on it I've never really had to focus on my diet and I've lost 100 pounds. I just feel "normal".
How's everyone on steroids like do they go to their doctor and say SIR, I say SIR, I need to get jacked TODAY, and they give them the gear
I was given a steroid shot once for a shoulder injury I had. Prior to the shot, I had been in chronic pain for months and had been consulting a surgeon for a possible operation to fix the problem. I could barely lift my arm above my head, and even pushing a car door open was painful.
After the doc gave me the shot the relief was almost immediate. It was like I had never been injured at all. I had never considered using PEDs for working out before then, but holy shit did it feel amazing. I remember wondering why the doctor warned me not to come asking for another shot if I ever got injured again ("it can't be that good, why would he be warning me about this?"), but I completely understood afterwards, it was genuinely like a miracle drug.
Prednisone was like a surprise for me. Never felt anything like it. If it wasn't for the side effects I would be taking it more often tbh.
Steroids aren't just a recovery thing, they actually make more muscle mass, hence the anabolic
