Yeah, I've always wondered why type 1 and 2 are just flavors of diabetes.  They have the same symptoms, sure, but wildly different causes and type 2 is almost entirely treatable with diet and exercise.  When the author mentions things like "There’s the invisibility of the deeply dedicated management it requires." it's easy to be furious because, well, type 2 doesn't usually require "deeply dedicated management."  Type 2 usually just requires that they stop stuffing their maw with bullshit all day.
