Those fears are valid but those solutions are comical.
The real solutions are much harder 🥲
Very interesting critque. Though the attempts to unify people, often get find out as shams, and end up splintering people into what Joseph Campbell called "Anticults". The solution, he says, is to create something global in scope that is grounded in reality (rather than feel-good marketing), and teaches people as they go along.
💯
People are getting paranoid and psychotic. It’ll kill them faster than any seed oil out there.
yawn
this cycles every 5 to 10 years.
- do this diet - it's a craze, people get bored and stop spending on it
- do this stupid exercise because you have to buy stuff to support it, people get bored and stop spending on it
rinse repeat. the crazes of today are the same as the crazes of the 70s 80s 90s 2000s 2010s, they just get a slight modification, a new name and branding and the 🐑 go for it because 'all their friends' are doing it
meanwhile those of us just doing the tried and true mundane diet and execise quietly stay healthy and laugh at the fools doing hyped up things that are so extreme that they are unsustainable long-term...
almost no one I meet who parrots the crazes of the day has any clue what the point of it is, how it supposedly works, or why they are doing it.
another one you could add is people who spend thousands of $ on new workout clothes before they attempt to drop 50+ pounds
most of what OP said are running jokes on mon, wed, fri when my husband and i workout with our PT who doesn't take supplements 🤣
It's all marketing and lies that work by people copying each other to 'fit in' or 'keep up to date' when in reality it's just the same shit again and again.

I do like posts like this, it is because not everyone is the same, i get up at 5, because i go to sleep with my children at evening, i take cake of them in the Morning, plus i get time for myself.
I can do gymnastics, because without i wont be able to move…
Whats next ah yeah i do share your opinion there are even ppl out there who want theys dog and children to be vegan.
But as long they are not “convert” this and that people im fine with that.
The problem is the when they get group dynamic momentum that ends in a green climate lobby and other bullshit im am finde with anybody as he wants.
Stay free, stay individual :-)
The solution that makes you healthy and kills you at the same time, over and over, for years and years? Have kids and try to keep up. Lol.
An aside, mine broke my nose twice last year while playing.
Let’s expand:
- Ah, what a nice day for a walk!
- Dude, they’re spraying toxic metals in the atmosphere, no wonder we get sick all the time!
- Ok, I’ll just go to a restaurant and have a burger.
- Man, they’re spraying toxic fry everything in seed oils, you’ll get all inflamed!
- I guess I’ll just have water then.
- With fluoride? It’s literally toxic waste!
- Ok, I’ll just sit here and do nothing!
- Sitting is like smoking, it kills you!
And on and on.

This is true and false. There are chemical compounds killing us. Worrying about it is not the answer. Rationally mitigating the best we can in peace is the answer. This is true of prepping, Bitcoin security, privacy mitigations… anything good can be obsessed on and destroy us.
I thought you were a communist now? Back to being a rugged individual again?
Excellent post. I too have had quite enough of the self-improvement culture. Eat a balanced diet, exercise in moderation, work hard, and call it a day. People make things too complicated!
100% nailed it. Pussies
religion of one they are not
Fear is a liar.
Yeah why would you want to remove the poisons from your life that leave you feeling sick and fatigued? And why would you want to make other lifestyle changes that leave you feeling vitalized and healthy? It makes no sense 🤷♀️
Trust God, eat meat, drink water, get sleep, and most importantly, spend meaningful time with family and friends. That’s all it takes!
Damn so doing a bit a cardo before 6am is part of the grift? And here i thought I was burning fat with fasted cardio
the food is a fucking landmine lmao
The are trying to destroy you in every way possible
Lol
