What misinformation or fake news people massively believe in, but that is proven wrong.

I’m prepared to get downvoted but here goes nothing(This is a huge risk).

Body positivity.
Body positivity is wrong but before you cancel and ban me, let me explain.
It’s promoting obesity and a whole lot of other health issues and it’s been scientifically proven that obesity shortens your life. Being healthy and eating right plus exercising is body positivity. You don’t have to exercise to look good, but you can do it for better health and longer life. It’s been scientifically proven for years that if you even do at least 30 minutes of exercise or really at least 15 minutes that it will benefit you long term. I can prove why being healthy is body positivity.
I am on keto and I have been for six months, but sometimes on off, but my keto/low carb lifestyle saved me from long term health issues. I went from 258 pounds to 215 in 2 months(I’m 17 and still young). I don’t care if I have abs I just want to be strong. I could give zero f**ks about how big my biceps are and legs but I just embrace what I have. Also, I am doing keto because I’m training for HS football. You can still be healthy at the right weight. You don’t have to be underweight or overweight to be body positive. Oh, and it’s not complicated on how you become healthy it’s actually rather simple. I’m not going to become a dietitian though I will make that clear.

agree, people should not celebrate being obese or overweight, being obese is bad. period. you are going to die early and waste taxpayer money trying to keep yourself alive, I understand that mental illnesses exist and some people just cant control themselves, but if you don't have any, then you have no excuse being overweight, just eat a bit less dam‌n it

That the lady who sued McDonalds over spilled coffee was had a ridiculous and frivolous suit. Actually she had 3rd degree burns and needed considerable treatment.
Furthermore, McDonalds had a history of selling super hot coffee and had been in court numerous times. The judge wanted to make the company to pay attention and stop selling boiling coffee.

And the corporation did a fantastic smear campaign to make sure that folks only remember their spin on it- not the real story.

He actually did something useful unlike Biden who takes 20 minute standing naps in front of the nation. Bidens bad financial decisions are really screwing up the country and I know we have always had a debt but it’s gotten WAY Worse since sleepy joe has been in office.

That diets work and all obese people have to do to lose weight is eat less and move more. It’s been proven that when we cut caloric intake our bodies adapt to the new conditions by decreasing our metabolic rate, increasing hunger and making us tired all in an effort to get back to homeostasis- and this is under the radar from our conscious minds, so it’s like your body is working against you behind your back to keep you fat. Which is why most people who diet gain back the weight and usually add more after the six month mark. It is depressing. I need a cookie.

How come you can get a shot or pill for anything, be it natural or synthetic, except metabolism? I'm not in the medical field, but if big pharma can create a way to change the chemistry in your brain, make you grow, stop pregnancy and pain etc., why can't they have something to increase metabolism if it's used to keep people at their optimal weight?

We got politics, so I'll be the one who mentions it. I can't put religion but I can put organized religion. Not wanting to single out any particular religion, if you congregate with others to hear one person's interpretation of a book used as a guide to a righteous, fulfilling life and happy eternity, it's a cult and they are speaking in tongues, mainly bu11s**t.

Yes. The two worst things that f**k people up, and turn them against each other. Politics and religion
