The Internet has ruined me. I see that picture very differently than most.

What is this nonsense you speak of? Now that maga has put lard and full fat dairy on the food pyramid it’s all sorted.

Dairy Queen at the top of the pyramid.

Their soft serve is ice milk and thus not full fat. Probably something more akin to custard, which requires X number of egg yolks to even qualify. Culver’s, maybe?

If 220 million people died, you would notice....220 million obese kids? With a major medical issue, yea it's a problem.

[–] saigot@lemmy.ca 1 points 1 month ago

I'd definitely say ~8% of a population having this condition is concerning yes.

What are we going to do next, give diabetics insulin?!

Gosh i wish my childhood obesity was taken seriously as a medical issue, and treated with medicine in coordination with lifestyle change instead of it being treated as a moral failing and then suffering from chronic obesity for decades before finally finding this medicine which clearly filled either a gap in my body's ability to produce or respond to glp-1 signals

The issue isn't with your body or with a moral failing... on your part. We make food as cheaply and as addictive as possible. We don't need to give Ozempic to children, we need to hold food producers accountable for the shit they sling.

it is taken seriously by non shit parents. It's not a disease that cannot be treated. Stop buying 6 gallons of soda every week at Costco.

You are so destructively ignorant.

Or, I'm a parent of three teenagers who has watched parents of obese kids constantly buying them various forms of fat and sugar, or money to buy that fat and sugar.

Yes, Virginia, there are parents who don't give a fuck and a child is just another box to tick beside marriage house and two cars.
