> If you try to fight ageing and look young people talk about you, but only to laugh and ridicule you.

If you do surgery and make yourself look deformed, then no, that's nonsense; plenty of women who aged normally are still considered to be attractive and didn't fade away as you say.

I support volunteer groups that try and get people off the streets, just like I would support campaigns trying to help curb obesity. Its fucking insane how saying "I don't support people dying from heroin overdoses" leads you to saying "Do you yell at them then?!?!". Americans in a nutshell lol

I don't go out insulting fat people, but when people say "being fat is perfectly fine and you can be very healthy whilst being huge and you gotta respect that, and you look just as pretty too" then no I don't support that message. You can surely rub those 2 braincells together and see the difference right?

If someone is fat but gets the issue with it and just lives their life, then its not like I have any power or say over their life, since they know its an issue themselves. But when people lie and maybe convince other people who could start a weight loss journey to essentially not bother because being fat is fine then that's not good at all.

>The vast majority of Americans are the people

And Americans are the only people on earth or reddit are they? Fucking pathetic how Americans think they're the only people that matter. Hilarious how you say "you people" when you're talking to someone who you can't believe doesn't fit your pathetic worldview to the level that you disregard my existence and shift the blame to a huge group of people I don't even belong to. Only fucking stupid person is you not being capable of talking to someone without massive sweeping statements whilst also ignoring everything they say

Again, "People".

Which people? Not the people in this thread, you just cant accept that, can you?

You say mockingly that people don't do anything to curb alcohol deaths and that we don't care, but when we do and just also include obesity in the list of things that need prevention just like addiction to alcohol, and say people shouldn't glorify it as a good thing, suddenly its "well it's their bodies leave them alone!!!".

The issue is anyone glorifying being overweight as okay is doing damage, I'm not saying people should be mocked, just not treated like its a GOOD thing, but you literally cant wrap your mind around any of that and think its somehow an insult or that people pick and choose.

>Imagine if all the people with so much "concern" about the health of others spent as much time talking about alcoholism or cigarette smoking

Many do. In most countries cig boxes have pictures of gruesome lungs from smokers and alcohol purchasing is restricted heavily or even banned after certain times of the day. So what's your response to people who advocate against abuse of alcohol, cigarettes AND food? If what you said is true then you should support that right?

I don't get your obsession with defending a Nazi sympathiser, she's not a War historian by the way either, she's an art historian through and through.

When historians who actually dedicate their lives to the war era say she assisted the Nazis, with the ONLY debabatable part of it being the tortures, I'm not going to look at a source written by an author who is clearly in the high risk category for bias, who isn't a specialist in the area. We know for a fact she worked to supply Nazi troops. We know she was Hitlers honoured guest at the Olympics. We know she was considered at the time a member of the French wing of the Gestapo. The fact the resistance, who risked their lives to free France considered her a priority target should speak to the fact she was obviously more than a basic sympathiser. Was she a torturer, who knows. But the fact you brush of even basic sympathiser is fucking disgusting. "Basic" Nazi sympathisers still deserve the electric chair. Fuck glorifying Nazis or their supporters, no matter how basic
