The media fear-mongering is driving me insane.

I was out at the store and I noticed the strangest thing; only the morbidly obese were wearing masks; oh, now they give a shit about their health.
The pandemic would have been a great time to remind everyone that obesity is the number one comorbidity for nearly every major disease. An earnest push to improve everyone's diet and exercise habits would have saved way more lives than any lockdown or mask mandate. But as is par for the course, only certain deaths matter - and conveniently, it's only those deaths that permit greater power grabs and profit for the elites.
We have pinterest getting rid of weight loss ads, that was never going to happen.
Yeah, instead of their mask they'd be way better off having taken the opportunity over the last 18 months to do nothing more than go out and take a brisk 30 minute walk every day. Change absolutely nothing else about their life, just a little walk. It's Arkansas too, there was never any sort of lockdown enough to make doing that difficult.
We should use the media propaganda machines to broadcast messages about the dangers of obesity and sedentary life styles. It would be far more beneficial to public health than the campaign they are currently conducting. Seriously, given how susceptible these people are to propaganda, can you imagine how much good could be done if instead of broadcasting "be afraid of the virus" we were instead broadcasting "eat whole foods and live an active healthy life"? We need to harness this power and use it for good.
