because you don't care for other people but will whine about other people not caring enough to lose weight
nobody is here "blasting" you they are speaking from their own experience with weight loss and all you had to say was to question their mental health
yeah i lack emotional regulation, like that's a thing for me and people with my condition, at least i know my faults
I don't care for random internet strangers and people in the vague abstract mass of humanity, yeah. It's fucking weird that anyone thinks that is legitimate caring. It isn't. It's just a proxy for grand standing and ego-stroking.
I don't care about their experience. It has no impact on what is a massive public health issue. The world is not about them and their individual experiences. And their inability to see usually means they are a egotistical nutjob who thinks everything is about themselves and their personal feelings... which actually is the type of people who give a shit about nobody but themselves.
Randomly going into vivid detail abut all your personal problems to vent at some stranger you feel has aggrieved you in a public space is insane and hostile behavior. I'm sure if I randomly went up to you and started screaming at you about my personal health issues, you'd find that very offputting and offensive and you'd wonder if I was off my meds.
There is nothing hostile about challenging your narrowmindedness with anecdote. You don't need to care about every living being on this planet to understand that you can't just pull a one size fits all blanket over a problem to make it go away.
There is nuance, individual expereince does matter when discussing public health issues. Your statement about people being too lazy to make the effort is clearly misjudged. The fact that i am one example of evidence of that does not mean i think its all about me. Seriously, you are out of touch.
It is funny that you address everyone here, talking about me, except for me. The person you are talking about.
Why don't you have this conversation with me?
or, perhaps, they wanted to show you a different perspective you do not know without aggression
I've met tons of whiny people my entire life who write essays about their problems. I don't need to hear from more of them. I understand lemmy is full to the brim with them though, who have delusions of grandeur because they PC game with linux or something, and yet they can seem to struggle with basic adult tasks. weird how that works.
