Food Fight

Of course obesity is a serious problem. Of course childhood obesity is a very serious problem. But do not let them charge you more for the same amount of food. That is their plan. Resist.

    "Of course obesity is a serious problem."

    Erm no David, "obesity" is a narrative device used to pathologise people through their weight. Effectively setting up a phony top down imposed identity. Those who bang on tediously about devisive ID politics invariably support this imposition wholeheartedly.

    [There is no such thing as "child/hood obesity" there are only children.]

    'Obesity' refers to a body mass index of 30 or above, which is neither here nor there unless you [individual or collective] decide it is.

    The real subject is weight and how to alter it, especially in a downward/reverse direction. Why would that require fixating a random by committee bench mark? How many slim (especially) women have you met who don't want to lose some few pounds or other?

    The human body knows how to regulate its own mass, most people, from the thinnest to the fattest's bodies tend to remain within a certain weight range.

    I'm sure you know your cells are destroyed and replaced as a part of continued human (animal) existence. Suggesting the body's maintainence of its own mass requires restoration to a previously settled point or range.

    If anyone truly wants to find out how to reverse/advance or maintain weight, they'd do well to find out how the body does all this and find ways to tap into that.

    Is that really what has been happening for the last 40 years of 'crisis'? No instead its all about starving the body of its ability to fuel its own processes.

    You are right about increasing the price of the same food. As we eschew the scientific/physiological route, for the anorexia/calorie restriction/dieting route is slowly becoming an organising principle of society.......

    "If you imagine a healthy future for Britain, or any other country that has put the hunger of millennia behind it, you see a kind of dictatorship. Not a tyranny, but a society that ruthlessly restricts free choice. It is a future that views the mass of people as base creatures jerked around by desires they cannot control. Expert authority must engineer their lives from above for their own good and the common good." Nick Cohen
