Ironically, obesity is the number one risk factor for C19, so it would be more appropriate to put a ‘hazardous substance’ warning on that box of fries.

Exactly. Why not just promote the shot on drums of industrial hazardous waste with skull and crossbones on them adjacent to the hypodermic.

I think that is the way people will see it when they pull the fries from the bag. Hope it is a marketing nightmare for them.

Certainly it's a major factor. Obesity, especially morbid obesity, alone implies a whole host of health risks. Top of those is awful nutrition. Too many calories, most likely of the most unhealthy processed foods: sugars and simple carbs. That implies a sore lack of vitamins and minerals. People who eat fried salami and drink Double Big Gulps are not known for their consumption of fresh fruit or salads. Ditto for lack of exercise. The preceding are an excellent gateway to more severe chronic conditions: heart disease, diabetes, cancer, and many more. Covid-19 is just icing on the cake.

Not all obese people are sugar gulping fast food junkies. Sooo. Some are, in fact, merely overnutritioned. My female partner (in sports) is well exercised (she plays our sport at least 4 times per week for at least 3h at a pop. She does not eat fast food and she is on the same regimen for vitamins that I use except more D3 since she is overweight. She just eats too much and people in her family run fat. It happens. Why denigrate people? Seriously. Are you saying she and others with weight problems deserve to die from COVID? Heaven forbid. I know you don't. Unless you are indeed satan's something.

The problem with this whole thing has been the tendency to oversimplify. I am overweight, and I eat healthier than most thin people I know, and I've survived through two "waves" without a vaccination, so if I've come down with COVID, it's not been severe enough to even get me into a doctor's office or to a testing site. The problem is that weight is an easy way to judge a person's health, and there is some correlation, but it is definitely not the only way. And we love to take the easy way out. But honestly I've seen mixed outcomes. I've seen heavy people do just fine with COVID and thin people get really sick. Statistics rarely can be relied on if you don't know the nitty gritty details of how they were arrived at.

Yes, I have a pituitary tumor that first made me incredibly skinny and has morphed into making me fat. Add in pancreatic failure and a gut dissection that almost killed me… Honestly, if I could eat a donut without a trip to the ER, I’d assume I’d croaked and landed in Heaven.

It's cortisol that's making your "partner" fat. Stay the hell away from vegetable oils unless it is high quality extra virgin olive oil or avocado oil. Virtually all other vegetable oils are rancid (canola is probably the worst). They are exposed to very high temperatures during the manufacturing process and this breaks them down, resulting in the release of free radicals. Free radicals in the body cause inflammation, which puts the body under stress. When the body is under stress it produces cortisol (i.e., the stress hormone), and cortisol is a fucking killer. I guarantee that people who have been jabbed with the kill shots have cortisol levels that are through the roof.

A lot of skinny people eat poorly. A lot of poor people eat poorly. Sugar kills. My mom was very thin. The doctor told her she was a fat thin person (fat on the inside and not healthy). People of all rank and size eat poorly. Not sure it is an exception, but if it pleases you to think it...

If she can do sports for 3hrs at a pop, four times a week, then leave her alone. She's doing fine. We're too fixated on size. And no I'm not for making overweight people into models, but I'm also not for forcing them to focus on a number (weight or BMI) as the sum total of their being. Neither approach is healthy.

Many years ago, I was in the Marines, but wanted to be a photographer, so had to transfer across to the Navy to do so.

The Navy almost didn't let me in as according to their "chart" I was borderline obese, solely due to my height and weight.

The chart did not differentiate between muscle mass and fat and therefore neither did the medical staff.

That was the last time I bothered with BMI as a measure of anything and realised that common sense is anything but.

Expand full comment

My husband is similar. He's a trim carpenter and he's a bit on the shorter side, so while he has a stomach, the rest of him is just muscle from all the lifting and walking. I didn't know whether to laugh or cry when I saw his paperwork from the doctor and he was one BMI point over into the "obese" category, which of course shows up in his medical chart. BMI is only marginally helpful when it comes to judging health.

I think she does. She does something where she eats in a time frame and then no eating. I can't remember the name, but it has one. And she eats keto which is something like a bunch of fat and protein and no bread. I am sure I am mangling that. She says bread makes her feel bad. It makes me happy so... no keto for me. It takes all kinds. Whatever pleases you I suppose. Her doctor suggested it. Not sure she has lost weight on it. I don't ask.

Italian Archbishop Vigano shared with The Gateway Pundit his transcript and audio message to the American people this week.

Italian Archbishop Vigano sent a message to the American people. He continues to speak out against the globalist threat this Christmas season.

Advertisement - story continues below

He shared his message below:

DEAR AMERICAN PEOPLE, DEAR FRIENDS, for two years now, a global coup has been carried out all over the world, planned for some time by an elite group of conspirators enslaved to the interests of international high finance. This coup was made possible by an emergency pandemic that is based on the premise of a virus that has a mortality rate almost analogous to that of any other seasonal flu virus, on the delegitimization and prohibition of effective treatments, and on the distribution of an experimental gene serum which is obviously ineffective, and which also clearly carries with it the danger of serious and even lethal side effects. We all know how much the mainstream media has contributed to supporting the insane pandemic narrative, the interests that are at stake, and the goals of these groups of power: reducing the world population, making those who survive chronically ill, and imposing forms of control that violate the fundamental rights and natural liberties of citizens. And yet, two years after this grotesque farce started, which has claimed more victims than a war and destroyed the social fabric, national economies, and the very foundations of the rule of law, nothing has changed in the policies of Nations and their response to the so-called pandemic.

“Just because everyone else does it doesn’t mean you should.” my mother said.

I have been saying things to my liberal friends that I have never said in the past. Not huge things but comments about Trump, or questions why a young girl can decide that she is a boy, or about climate change, or about the covid vaccine.

Because of this I am being seen as a nutter or as a conspiracy theorist and I received in a round about way e-mail from a friend’s brother explaining to me about misinformation. He had a number of things to say on of them including, “whole business of alternative news and such has been a real cottage industry,” and, “One of my favourites (fact checkers) is https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/.” In the end he wrote, “Anyway, I find that if I am thinking that I am right and 99% of the world is wrong, that is usually a good time to stop and fact check a bit.”

I have been fact checking all along and I have learned how to do this effectually. To rely on a fact checker is a giving up of responsibility. And who is checking the fact checker. I may not be able to understand all the details of a medical theory but if I read enough of them I can get a good idea of the thrust of the theory. There are people who test the theory and discus them and I can see if they can explain theories in a way that I can understand. I never put my trust in any one, or any theory but with time and energy I can get a good idea of the theory at hand. And I always know that I might have got it wrong.

With covid it has become easier because the mainstream thought and so-called reason is so easy to see through. If 99% of the people I disagree with are pro-vaccinators then I know I am on the right track.

My mother was right. https://nikontim.substack.com/

As others have pointed out, truth and facts are not based on a popularity contest. But another thing is that your friend has obviously been misinformed if he thinks that 99% of people disagree with us. Depending on the specifics under discussion, the percentage disagreeing with us is nowhere near 99% and for some points, even the media's biased polls show that the majority agree with us.

He had no specifics about any topics, my friends are just 'worried' about me and he was the elected explainer. It feels like 99% to me as I am coming out of a liberal bubble. These forums are very beneficial for me to see many people who will engage in crucial topics.
