> What we actually need to do is un-fuck our food supply

Seems like something you could lead with instead of moronic gut reactions...



There's nothing moronic about the argument that calorie deficits can cause weight loss. Most people using Ozempic have never tried multi-day fasting as an alternative. There are plenty of ways to lose weight that don't require taking medicine that might be fucking up your digestive system long-term.

That’s not the argument you are making, and that is one I’d agree with.

Source? This is an assumption that requires data, because it is intuitively not true; and anecdotally, it is also not true.

This is purely a prejudiced assumption.

Or it might not, and hasn’t, at any meaningful scale, since 2005. Seems like you really want it to, though, and that seems like more a problem with you than it or them.
