The CDC begs to differ: https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/fastats/obesity-overweight.htm

normally I would just say: appeal to authority, but since it’s the CDC and they have royalty screwed up the pandemic response I’m gonna go the extra mile: “fuck the CDC”

Ok so CDC is lying about body weight stats, got it. No point in discussing with you further.

that was always an option to stop the discussion.

I mean CDC lied about COVID repeatedly and issued guidance that was disastrous. Remember the whole “you don’t need masks unless you’re a doctor” in the beginning? How about withholding critical information about spread? How about underreported numbers? CDC is at this point a clown gathering and have 0 credibility. 0
