I'm not even sure what they were trying to accomplish. They sure as hell weren't trying to make Epstein look good and Epstein was totally playing into it. It almost feels like he did it just to flex, knowing full well they had no intention of releasing the thing. At one point he flat out calls Epstein Satan and his reply is basically "Not saying I am, but I'm in no position to refute it." If anything, it fed into his ego and I think it chubbed him up a little.
being fat is not a "health problem" it's a fucking "self control problem."
I agree with the principle you have stated, but if only it were simple as "self control." Don't get it twisted, you are right, but there is a severe problem with how we are processing food for the average joe. We are poisoned at every fucking angle you have to maintain a constant vigil on what you choose to consume.
Bread in America is so fucked you can't help but feel like you are committing a crime at every sandwich when you really know what's going down. The moral really amounts to not so much as "self control" imo and more down to going back to basics and learning to cook meals from base ingredients more. The convenience of complacency is the villain hiding behind the curtain.
A 2 minute ad per session sounds like a really good deal. The problem is that can be taken further and in much more abusive ways. This just sounds like a means of getting people acclimated for when the whole fist goes up the ass.
This is what happens when you bring a new game for the party to play, because only you know the rules, so you roll them, but then people start to understand the rules and just CRUSH you, because you suck at your own game.
Those Old Gods did far more damage to Azeroth than anyone could have ever fathomed.
