My experience is theirs. I grew up in a household that never had any real money issues, and was consistently fed UPFs. Drank probably around 6 sodas per day. Then one day I said "I'm tired of being fat. Why am I fat? Maybe its because I eat so much junk food, since it is well known that junk food makes you fat." So I stopped eating junk food and now I'm not fat. My parents and other people I knew in my hometown, meanwhile, continued eating junk food, and have continued to gain weight. I will firmly classify this as "their fault".

Ah right. You were fat now you hate fat people. That makes more sense to why you're the way you are.

I don't hate fat people. I just think that when my dad, for example, who is a boomer with a paid off house, a cushy management office job, and a significant 6 figure salary, goes to McDonalds on his lunch break, that that is a choice he made
