    “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
