LET THEM EAT BEEF

Couldn't contain myself. I'm so sick of this trade policy Trump is trying to push. Bottom line, he is trying to strong arm EU into buying inferior American products. Funny, how the capitalist of all capitalists can't do business in an open trade environment. Yesterday, it was American cars. Everyone, American or not, wants German cars, Japanese cars, probably Chinese cars if they could be sold here because they are SUPERIOR PRODUCTS, stupid!!! 

Today, it's beef and agricultural products. As someone who has been eating organic since 1989--no easy feat back then even in NYC trust me--I have seen the rise of the organic industry due to demand. Now, we want to export cancer and all kinds of diseases to the EU. 

Our beef or cars and a whole lot more aren't "beautiful"; they are inferior products that nobody buys unless the president of the US threatens them. Instead of that, why doesn't the US try to make a better product that the world would want to pay for?

MAYBE WE JUST GOT SICK

 

Well, written article about some influencer, but all this return to thinness maybe because of the fact that we got sick of looking at rolls of fat. I, personally, feel sick when trying to buy Victoria Secret lingerie. Imagine, Victoria Secret that used to feature true earthly angels. And that's woke. No wonder Trump won. The left is perverse. And then as soon as the fatsos can, they lose weight and celebrate that. Stop the fucking celebration and get real. Eat healthy, exercise and get on with it. The article would have served a better purpose to have explored what makes a society deem near anorexia attractive. 

However, the reason I hate this inclusivity ethos is that it hypocritical. They shame us normal people into being judgmental about health issues that obesity brings while they indulge their food addiction. Do, I want to eat a pint of Hagen Dazs everyday to forget my troubles? Sure. But if I did, I would acknowledge it; I have an addiction, it isn't good for me and I'm trying to fight it but sometimes it just feels too good. Judge me as you would an alcoholic, a heroine addict or a smoker, but an addict I am. I don't like that part of me and I don't ask you to. I may be fighting today or not,  but everyday I expect empathy and sympathy and manners, perhaps kindness from my fellow flawed humans.
