What a time to be alive, as others have said, when science reconfirms every day that simply being overweight is deadly, let alone being obese, while simultaneously being bombarded with demands to not only tolerate the overweight and obese, but to respect them, find them attractive, encourage them to take more than their own seats in public transport even if it means injuring "skinny bitches," and language being policed in the public and increasingly the private spheres to not breathe a word about how sick, vile, and indisputably deadly it is to be fat.
