While I personally don't use twitter, a sad reality is often people get better tech support from making a fuss about a shitty situation on twitter while pinging companies' accounts publically and challenging them to fix it.

I'm not sure if it will help you, but it's worth a try, or at least trying to get someone else to make just such a fuss to get proper attention.

If a video has manmade captions and not auto-generated, you actually can check the transcription which has timestamps.

Fair perspective. What I felt compelled about is that it seemed like the message was "we shouldn't tell people to stop" simply because they won't comply, whereas to me applying social pressure is a part of the education and prevention, as well as motivating people to stop by annoyance and embarassment.

I'm a little short on time, so I'll also concisely say that at first I referenced addiction almost as if to show similarities and contrasts (i didn't fully consider it a real one), but now on further thought it really does seem like a true addiction...

Why can't they do those things? All of them are easy steps. Sure, they take time, but so does the process of someone dropping a drug dependency.

It sounds a lot as though the obese then suffer a severe addiction if they can't make even small changes to their lifestyle in order to directly save and improve their lives on both short and long term scales.

If that's the case, shouldn't we be pressuring them to get help? Obviously i'm not sure how you feel about alcohol or opiate addictions, but assuming you think we should warn people of the dangers of drug overuse and addiction, shouldn't we do the same for the obese and their addictions?

Also, i am rather genuinely curious on one point:

What makes some people seem to have such a hard time compared to others? How come some people can consume the same food overall, but still maintain the ability to self regulate instead of greatly overeating?
