 Here’s a real honest opinion. In my several decades of life, I have not met a single fat person who doesn’t either want to lose weight or tries but fails. That is just the way it is. Promoting fat life is Fiat BS ! There I said it. The Olympics opening was done to piss people off.  Sporting excellence isn’t fat trans people pretending to be The Last Supper. They would have at least 2 suppers and a bag of biscuits 🤷‍♂️ 
 give me a fat person, let me control their inputs, like a farkin human hamster - I'll give you a chad in 8-12 weeks.  
 The State doesn’t want that. They want medicated, fat, dumb, social media addicted, neutered morons 
 Post Modern philosophy came from France. I think French people realized their money wasn't backed by gold in 1971.

This made them question the foundation of reality itself.

If this piece of paper can be called money when it's not backed by gold, why can't I call myself healthy I'm fat? Why can't men get pregnant? What's physical reality got to do with anything since money does not equal gold?

I think the fact that France asked for their gold back and got rug-pulled is the root cause of this culture war.

Note: my personal opinion is not included in this discussion about post modern philosophy. I don't think this culture war is actually about trans-people. I believe they are being scapegoated. I don't think most Americans would give a damn if not for the industrial manufacturing consent complex. 
 “Of course trans people are being scape goated. The whole thing is BS. Just like Covid, just like Climate, just like inflation, just like education, just like history. It’s  all BS “

 Totally agree. It is all BS. 
 They seem to like the attention.
