And also, since what we originally started arguing about was frosted flakes.
Is it really on topic to start throwing Genetics articles at this? All the above is about “obesity traits” which as I understand it are referring to intrinsic stuff not consumption of frosted flakes.
My previous point about neighbourhoods still stands. Or being racialized. You know how closely all this anti fat shit is related to racial essentialism right?
Your old articles are fine if there is a reason you chose them. I asked you directly if you actually read them, because one of them is paywalled and >99% of people can’t read the link you provided. Maybe you are at a university of something and you could read it and didn’t realize that. Lack of response suggests that I was correct in my assumption that these 3 articles were chosen by means of cherry picking because they supported your position.

You literally disputed there being a causal association between obesity and morbidity and mortality when there demonstrably is, so yes, it is on topic.
all this anti fat shit
I literally didn’t say anything ‘anti fat’. I said that there is a causal association between obesity and morbidity and mortality. And there is.

There are numerous systematic reviews and meta-analyses finding a robust association between obesity and morbidity and mortality. At this point you are just outright denying the science, which is your prerogative and all but don’t pretend you’re making anything other than an emotional, heuristic, non-scientific argument. You refuse to update your beliefs based on the evidence which shows to me that you’re not engaging in good faith, so I’ll stop replying now. I hope you come around to scientific thinking some day.
