You are normalizing early death's with talking like this .Weight is also an identity choice. Being plus size doesn't mean heart disease.

When I can get heart disease from your respiratory droplets.
I get it. In a just society we must protect our vulnerable or those who are helpless. We know how to do that, but they must also help themselves. Do we keep in perpetual lockdown mode because Sally from the trailer park can't help but stuff a dozen cheeseburgers down her throat daily? The immunocompromised should likewise take measures to safeguard their health and I'm more than willing to help accommodate that to a point. I'll mask up and keep my distance without a second thought as that's a fair ask.
Personally I don't want or need this type of "help" and should be allowed to make my own choices. Allowed? Lol. I do and will keep doing so. I'm also well aware that the next time (guaranteed there's going to be a next time as this thing isn't going away) I catch Covid it might kick my ass. And that's a chance I'm willing to take.
You've been to some of the shitholes of this world and I'm sure you've seen people take chances in order to have a better life and live free. Yet some people born to a life of luxury, and let's face it much of North America is luxury compared to recent world history, are so willing to bend over backwards to give away what others would value the most. Strange days indeed.
Damned wall of text

Do healthy people die from COVID at a alarming rate? or is it pre-existing conditions ?Last I checked you couldn’t get heart disease from someone sneezing in a grocery store

The 3 main causes of death per year are health related. What world do you live in? I see possibly 1 maybe 2 commercials a year as it pertains to any sort of healthy lifestyle or exercise. Meanwhile, fast food commercials and ads are minute by minute. Anywhere you go you are surrounded with it. Even forms of cancer have direct correlations to the foods we eat now and how we live.
Sugar has been routinely described as being 20 times or more addictive then some of the hardest drugs.
Ive heard the spiel about..."well fast food isnt contagious". Yes it fucking is. Psycologically contagious. You are introduced to it at an extremely early age and causes a myriad of issues from the onset. One you get used to it , good luck trying to escape its clutches. Its everywhere you look and go so its hard not to fall victim to it all. Alcohol most definitely included.
All this constant treating your body like utter shit ultimately weakens it and makes it more and more susceptible to recovering from illness or viral infections.
You speak of innocense. Whats innocent about an obese 6 year old who huffs and puffs running across the playground? Whats innocent about a mom stuffing her toddlers mouth with chicken mcnuggets and ice cream? These kids are being introduced to shit more addictive then drugs that may have a destructive impact on their bodies long term. Dont get me started on alcohol.
Im not here to completely dismiss covid, all im saying is that if people focused on some basic things and made some realistic changes, so much could be avoided or at least reduced.
Also im not in any way saying elderly are expendable. Just most people who are older didnt exactly live the cleanest lifestyles as well. Theres a reason so many suffer a slew of issues as they age. Theres also a reason a very, very select few live past 90 or 100.
Look, most people, maybe 95 percent have no clue how to properly live. Its just how we are all raised. What we are all raised around. The problem is, most people know they dont do shit right but do absolutely nothing to remedy it. People are cool with living "plugged in" and will do anything to preserve that lifestyle.
You can’t possibly be this dumb..In 2019 1.5 million deaths were from diabetes so I am not sure why we even bother with insulin.
Plus lately Covid seems to only seems to kill anti vax conservative talk show hosts.
I've never downplayed the importance and danger of Heart Disease, I've said that you won't die because someone next to you ate a Big Mac.
You aren't reading my posts and are way off topic, so I'm done. Feel free to read my posts at some point if that was ever the point of making this thread.
