They are just bigots,

    Sorry what I mean is that the explanation goes beyond just science. These other factors are real and affects a broad swathe of the populace. I’m saying that fatphobics are bigots for more than their misunderstanding of science. I’d say that’s supporting the original argument.

      The original statement refers only to not understanding medical science, and that they’re bigots because they don’t understand that science. I refuted that argument. Now you’re saying that there are social and cultural factors rather than just science. You have moved the goal posts of the argument.

        Oh I didn’t realize you were refuting the original argument as it’s clear from years of research that population level guidance (AMA recommendations) has been both wrong and ineffective. Even in the scientific community there has been bigotry against fat: https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0033062021000670 which is why some of these recommendations have remained for so long.
