    Former porkchop here as well. It’s all behavioral.

    Yes there are external factors that can influence behavior, but at the end of the day it can’t be reduced further than that.

    I am exhausted by the collective delusion and endless disavowing of any form of personal responsibility for one’s own dietary intake. Focus on the external factors, always, never look at choices because then it becomes a “they” problem not a “me” problem.

      I’m sorry you guys are getting so much pushback here, lol. I was hoping Lemmy would have less… “Reddit” problems, but the number of dislikes and comments here tells me there’s still a LOT of pedantic, self-deluded, minimally educated, credential-worshiping fatties in denial within our community. It’s too bad so many give in to their emotions without practicing REAL rationality these days, it sounds like both Lemmy AND these people could really benefit from that ability.

        What I find the most depressing is the fatties have invaded the scientific discussion. Want to literally scream out-loud at nothingness out of sheer frustration??? Listen to that “Maintenance Phase” podcast… it is literal mental illness and her own personal Cognitive Dissonance playing out in front of the listeners in realtime, portrayed as informational.

        Describe “real” rationality ?

        I genuinely can’t infer what you mean from that statement.

            You probably want to keep to DM’s if you don’t want conversation on a public message board.

            Though I suppose a demonstrated lack of understanding of how public message boards work gives me my answer so, thanks.
