Fascist could also try a bullet salad.
Well that would weed all the diabetics out of the American gene pool in just a few days. I’m not sure diabetics are the real problem though.
Cute, little Trump
Considering that the GOP wants to kill SNAP, it is pretty clear that RFK wants his hands bloodied.
This guy, like the rest of that lot, are butchers of the innocent and trusting.
Isn’t that not how diabetes works?
I’m an idiot about biology anything, let alone food and drugs, but I know that.
Basically now as a type 2 diabetic I cannot eat anything and I’m still at elevated sugars…
Weight loss and a super low carb diet would work… Maybe… But if I even fuck it up for a week my sugars will be sky high again
Type 1 diabetics dont make any insulin at all. So as soon as you cut off their supply they start dying. 4 days should see them all gone. (I am type 1 myself)
Certain types and situations of diabetes can be effectively controlled with a low (usually very low; ketogenic) carb diet and careful weight management. It doesn’t apply to all or even most situations, which is why we use insulin.
Also, vegetables have carbs, and you really, really should be eating a lot of vegetables for many reasons.
Hey Marty! Every legal resident in the USA should have the same health insurance as you, dumbfuck. That would solve a lot of problems in 3rd World USA.
So many factors involved in controlling A1C. Not just your diet but lifestyle, exercise, access to health care and healthy inexpensive food.
To be fair, our western diet of mainly cheap non-nutritive carbs suck. America needs desperately to change their diet but when Michelle Obama tried to encourage better eating habits the Republicans attacked her. JFK jr, on the other hand is totally nuts.
It must have been quit a challenge to find the most incompetent losers to fill the failed, fucked-up, fat, fascist, felon’s cabinet.There’s no need to be fair here. Insulin is absolutely essential for diabetics, and the head of the FDA trying to proclaim that cooking classes are a viable alternative is nonsense. For type 1 diabetics, no amount of healthy eating is going to get their body to produce insulin. For type 2 diabetics, it is possible to eventually get to a point where you can be stable without insulin, but not for everybody and not right away. Insulin treatment is the only way to survive with diabetes for an extended period of time, and the focus needs to be on ensuring that insulin is both affordable and accessible.
Yes, there are things to improve in our food supply, but don’t let that distract from how egregiously insane his comments are about diabetes.
This is the truth, right here.
You do know there are different types of diabetes, right? And a lot of different things that can lead to diabetes?
Some people do get there, in part, due to poor diet, but not everyone.
To be fair
Well there’s your problem. Never hand it to fascists (or grifters, or cult leaders, etc. — basically any kind of bad faith actors).
Michelle Obama tried to encourage better eating habits the Republicans attacked her.
Part of her plan would have banned Cheerios in schools because of added salt. That was one of the things getting pushback.
Her initiative to get added sugars listed on nutrition labels had very broad support.
You guys have chips in schools? Bruh…
I know someone said cheerios are cereal, which they are. But we do indeed have chips, or crisps, in our schools.
Cheerios are a breakfast cereal. Generally considered a relatively healthy one due to their lack of added sugars.
It must have been quit a challenge to find the most incompetent losers to fill the failed, fucked-up, fat, fascist, felon’s cabinet.
Not really. Anyone who actually wants to support Trump automatically falls into that group.
People will die because of these fuck holes.
Killing people is a core tenet of the Republican party.
“Try not being so fat, you fucking fatties” is a reaction I have heard from people who are themselves overweight. It’s genuinely maddening to see how many Americans are sold on the most superficial understanding of “healthy” as “fuckable” rather than “capable and resilient”.
So much of the Trump attitude towards health seems to be geared towards eugenics against old ugly poors.
That’s what’s stupid too is most of the eugenics are directed at things eugenics don’t even “fix” - it doesn’t matter how well bred you are you will get old and we already have plenty of hot and smart poor people, lots of them even have college educations beyond that, beauty is in the eye of the beholder
You know, during ww2 when Britain enact very harsh rationing the rate of diabetes and heart disease did drop greatly. Because many fatty staples and meat were hard to come by and sugar was nearly nonexistent.
But you know what was instrumental in increasing life expectancy by almost 10 years almost overnight? The NHS after the war. Even when rationing fully ended in the late 50s life expectancy continued to be much higher despite all the previously hard to get stuff becoming readily available again.
Challenge Accepted.
We’ll get insurers and Medicaid to fully cover diabetes supplies in no time.
How many cooked billionaires does it take to satisfy the proletariat?
As many as it takes.
Syringes for me, but not for thee.
Is a total ban on diabetes medicine on the way? This is an effort to kill anyone who isn’t young and fit.
This is an effort to kill anyone who isn’t young and fit.
Or also chronically ill. I’m (relatively) young and very fit, but I’m also type 1 and require insulin to live. It’s eugenics, plain and simple.
Yeah, I’d say yes. It’s a primer and warning shot. They’ll roll it out in phases.
It gets a reaction out of us. And not always a logical one. A lot of people’s gut instinct is just to deny whatever “they” say. That does two things:
First, it gets their base thinking and talking about how many T2 diabetics are supposedly just consequences of lifestyle.
Second, it pushes the left into reflexively denying that even though it’s partly true. So now, when any real conversation comes up, there’s already a schism. And they can use that to sneak more garbage through, stuff that benefits them and their friends.
Can we head them off at the pass?
No. Never.
Can we head them off at the pass?
No. Never.
Can it come to pass that their heads come off?
“All of this has happened before, and it will all happen again.”
No. R3v0luti0n is impossible in a postindustrial society.
So was a housing price crash, until 2008.
Splendid turn of phrase.
A ton of T2 diabetes is about lifestyle and not much else that’s still absolutely not a reason to deny a person medical care! What’s next? Denying cancer care if they say it happened because of your lifestyle? It’s amoral
Well think about why they’re arguing this point. Break it down logically. What are you actually saying. Like when your wife gets mad you didn’t take out the garbage. Is it really about the garbage or is she mad you banged her sister. There’s usually a deeper issue at the root and you need to find that core belief. This is about the appearance of health and virirlity. They feel victimhood always and so they project strength. T2 Diabetes is a target because of the implication. My wife is mad because her sister is hotter. It’s all about the root.
Once you know the root, you can target their insecurity.
Is a total ban on diabetes medicine on the way?
Insulin, anyways. I’m sure semaglutide will still be available, since it’s such a weight-loss wonder-drug
He should take a look at reality maybe?
