  • He predicts Harris will win citing 8 keys he uses:

     No primary contest and the party is largely behind her
    
     No sizable third party spoil
    
     In the short term and long term economies are good
    
     Biden made large policy changes like Paris accords, chips act, inflation reduction act
    
     No sustained social unrest
    
     No meaningful white house scandals
    
     Challenger charisma is limited to a narrow base
    

    The points against her are:

     Midterm gains by challengers
    
     Harris isn't the incumbent
    

    With Foreign policy failures and Foreign policy success left unchecked because she passed the majority of the keys.

    With those last two he says “The Biden administration is deeply invested in the war in Gaza. Which is a humanitarian disaster, with no end in sight”

    Seems like you just have an axe to grind about fat people. Protein is not the deciding factor in weight gain, calories are, so I don’t know why you think a link to the wiki page about obesity would be convincing that protein powder is snake oil.

    Even when you coincide that it is relevant you dismiss with little justification. Also BMI is not a great metric for individuals, many that have a lot of muscle are measured as overweight because there is a lot more to bodies that height and mass.

    Can you justify why protein powder is snake oil in line with the other things in the thread? I will grant that most people have more than enough protein in a regular diet, but stats about obesity says literally nothing about if powder can help your workouts give the results you’re hoping for.

    It is interesting how the fakest of things can offer such insight into their creator. This nothing of a human is so desperate for validation about the wasted hours they have spent editing a poorly drawn frog for the uncaring half laugh of strangers, that they invented a scenario where someone could show any interest. So detached from the world they can’t imagine anyone that would care enough to talk to them, so they project interest onto the therapist they pay to speak with.
