Obesity rate more than tripled since the 80s (1980s), people had already access to more than enough food to become obese in 1980 USA, so this alone doesn't explain much

But surely you realise something doesn't add up... Either cravings somehow automagically drastically changed in two generations or you're plain wrong. > you have insight into the qualia of other people. Yeah that's called

> This is a pretty massive assumption that your "craving level" is the same as everyone else. We didn't go from sub 10% obesity to 40%+ obesity in 50 years because of people cravings.

Yeah right, I'm obviously an elite genetical specimen and 75% of people are simply dumb animals with insane amount of cravings I cannot even begin to comprehend. And these people didn't exist 45 years ago. Feel free to guide me to

The obesity rate in the US tripled in 45 years... so clearly it's not about genetics or cravings. People had the same genetics, cravings and access to calories in 1980 USA as today, we're not talking 1580 here.

But how did people survive their craving, they must have all been completely on the verge of insanity right? Are all these lean and healthy people from archive videos actually suffering and in distress? Poor souls...

180cm, 75kg, leanish, I optimise for rock climbing and do kettlebell workouts 2 to 3 times a week. I do close to the bare minimum of what is available to stay in decent shape, it takes me less than 4 hours a week total. Not counting the tim

I'm convinced it is but you can't help people who don't want to be helped. People who want to be helped get out of the problem in a matter of months. Fix your shit, it's much better than taking pills for life to fix your

AfD gets 30% of votes, the turnout isn't even 80% so even if we consider 100% of them are brain dead putin balls garglers, which isn't even remotely true, that's 14m people out of ~60m people legally allowed to vote.
