Why do "Liberals" want to do something as a nation to "fight" Obesity?

[The True Adonis]

I`ve never understand their logic (lack thereof) on this issue.  They point the fingers at Fast Food and Soda which are completely harmless to eat and drink.  How come nobody realizes that all you need to do is eat 2000 calories or so a day?  (that little piece of advice also eludes people of ALL political persuasions-many on Getbig even)

Ban advertising for such products.

Advertising by definition is made to manipulate the viewer. If a company puts millions of dollars on the line to manipulate people into unhealthy life choices how can they act innocent.

I'm all for freedom of choice, but allowing coke ads free reign is just the opposite.


But anyways continues this childish diatribe, and be sure to stick your "values" and ignore virtually everything we know about human behavior.

I also think its an issue of personal freedom. People should be allowed to be unhealthy and obese if they so choose.  Any idiot knows the risks.

You are a moron.  How come I never wanted to smoke cigarettes despite being bombarded with tons of ads as a kid and all my friends smoked?

What is unhealthy about Coke?  Especially Diet Coke?  

Banning advertising?  Really?

Also the sodium levels in fast foods are off the charts...

About as much as the over eating, Americans over indulge in many things. We have this belief that its ok to over indulge and that there is something wrong with those who do not, aka party poopers.

Smoking is a horrible example.

The much better question is why would coke spend billions of dollars on add campaigns.

Do you believe it's because it don't work?

Are you that fucking naive?


But again this is a typical adonis debate, if you completely ignore everything we know about human nature you are correct. However if you factor it in for even a fucking second, your autistic, beliefs seem child like.

This^^

I don't think you're really a liberal. You seem too smart. LOL

Great logic, but if adds didn't interfere with personal choice, they wouldn't exist.

What you'd like to do is treat adults like children who can't make decisions on their own.    We should expect people to think about the repucussions of their actions and make informed choices.  During no other time in history has information been so readily available.   If people are too lazy to think for themselves, that's their problem.

Smoking is a horrible example?  They were the king of advertising at one time.

I want Coke to spend millions on advertising.  I want them to sell as much product as they can.  I want them to succeed.  I hope the ads work incredibly well.
 
For the record, I do not like Coke Products at all.  I am strictly a Pepsi Man.  Coke is not nearly as good, despite the millions they spend in ads.  I choose Pepsi for the taste any day.  Especially Pepsi Max.

I also feel sorry for people like RAtard who cannot think for themselves and cannot make up their own mind about a product and have to rely on whatever advertising they "succumb" to.  Poor RAtards.

You're the second person to tell me that.  I like to tell them I'm complex.

Ads help you make a personal choice.  Their goal is not to "interfere".  Again, you are a moron.

smoking is a narcotic it doesn't need advertisements.

Anyhow I find it laughable, that you think I fall for adds, I'm autistic like you remember, adds tend not to work to well on us, it's a matter of neurology.


However for the general population, the ability to think for themselves is a massive delusion.

The Democrat Party left us a long time ago my friend.  I can`t believe the nonsensical farce it has become.  It was always a bit nonsensical in some areas, but its going over the cliff lately with the Republicans.  I don`t really feel like any party represents us for the most part.

I see, you're trying to turn your "disability" into a super power.  All us normals are such idiots.

You're right.  Where's the simple logic and common sense? Shit, where's the intellectual consistency?   If you're not a true believer who swallows the party line without question you're not a true Democrat/liberal.

Yeah by manipulating your personal desires through associations.

Like I honestly can't tell if your actually this naive or just trolling.

You can't expect a regular person to make a rational decision when they are filled with manipulation.

But again this is your whole circular argument, if you ignore human behavior you are right, otherwise fuck no.

Fuck you dude, I never said that, I don't think billboards work to well on a blind man either, don't make em special, think for a fucking second.

Caffeine is a narcotic.  You are the board`s only special RAtard.  No one is autistic but you.  I thought you had AssBurgers?

I see no issue whatsoever with manipulating personal desires in any way in order to steer them in a certain direction.  Its what I do best and I do it extremely well.

DSM 4 redefined assburgers, as a form of emotional or high functioning autism.

And you my friend clearly are.

And the more you make threads that are both well thought out, and completely ignorant of human behavior the more this shows true.

Seriously maybe your just a sociopath who knows.
