Completely false comparison because junk food doesn't harm other people around them who don't eat it. The only way she could make that comparison was if anyone who ate junk food around people shoved parts of it down the mouths of other people around them... and even doing that would be less harmful than shoving smoke down people's lungs. Unhealthy food is still at least a food. Not just a fucking addictive poison that harms other people around them who don't want to even consume that fucking addictive poison.
I stand by almost everything I said (except the tax rates, which was a little extreme, I typed it while pissed off), junk food should be taxed like cigarettes. Fat people are still a drain on the NHS, at least smokers pay their fair share towards the health system. Maybe age restrictions should be placed on unhealthy food as well to cut down on child obesity.
Are you saying overweight people don't pay their fair share toward the health system?
I mean, lung cancer and COPD are not cheaper than diabetes and heart disease. Or did you mean that fat people are lazy and don't work?
Personally, I think we should encourage people to love themselves while always striving to improve. Saying, I'm fat, and giving up and not trying to change is not mentally or physically healthy. We can accept the person whole encouraging better health all at once, it does not have to be all one way or the other.
Then again, when people use words like fatties and streetlights them as lazy drains on society, you are wrecking self extreme so people are more likely to say, fuck you and fuck it all, Imma go eat a shole cheesecake and cry. You are not helping the problem, anymore than someone who uses words like libtard or republicunt.
Ps, why go through the trouble of changing on the outside if you stay the same on the inside? People will eventually notice the same old persona underneath.
