Okay, great, so we're all in agreement here, Marxism-Leninism is auth left. That's the only point I care to discuss here.

You know fine well what it is, an authoritarian state with a great deal of control over the people living under it. You can argue that this authoritarianism is justifiable because it's the best way to bring about communism, but it's still auth left. Heck, we currently live under an extremely authoritarian right wing system, so it could be less authoritarian than the current system but still remain authoritarian in the full balance considering alternatives, and thus auth left.

I hope this helps clear things up for you.

Oh my god, shut the fuck up. Nobody should face social stigma for their body, full stop.

It can be a form of harm reduction at best. For the few minutes it takes to postal vote, I feel like it's worthwhile, personally.

because capitalism

If you want to reduce intergenerational conflict, it helps to acknowledge the pain and how society has failed the less privileged.

As a millenial, you likely had a fairly normal childhood, a privelege many GenZ did not, due to COVID.

Obviously this isn't your fault, and older generations have privelege you don't have. If we want to advance class interests we need to be intersectional, and acknowledge the unique problems that affect some groups more than others.

Back when everyone was glazing Carney for his whole "neo-liberalism is dead" speech, I said that talk is cheap and that everyone who believed in a fucking banker saving us from liberalism is just being fooled by a charismatic snake.

Leftists being proved right again and again never even get the satisfaction of vindication because we're always right, but because nobody listens to us, everything always gets worse.

The judiciary is, by and large, owned and controlled by the ruling class. Don't expect anything resembling justice to come from that system.

Without doxing myself, I have expertise in this topic. It's not a matter of my world view, it's a matter of science and communication.

It is very unlikely that human adiposity leads to increased cancer risk directly. It is correlational, not causational. Human adiposity itself, isolated from compounding factors, has a complex relationship with health outcomes, and not at all the linear correlation where more fat = more bad that the mainstream likes to pretend.

We know that certain foods, particularly animal products, especially cheaper animal products, lead to cancers, heart disease, etc. This is most likely explanation for the results in this study. But yet again we have yet another study uselessly pointing out a correlation which is unhelpful for actually solving public health issues and continues to encourage the passing of the blame to those in society who have the least responsibility for their situation.

Hate these studies. They're always just based on correlations, and ignores the elephant in the room: class. How wealthy you are, how wealthy the area you live in, those factors have the highest impact on health outcomes, but the mainstream media (which is owned by the ruling class) will never be honest about that. So they just find correlations that let them blame poor people for having shitty diets.

Mainstream media is owned and controlled by the ruling class, so yeah, only independent media will report such things
