Quote: The “individual choice” narrative does suit one group in particular, says Martin: food companies, which have spent years pushing it.
“Those big corporations love to put it back on the individual,” she says.
“It suits them, because where are the solutions?
Not with the individual, but with government.” [Jane Martin]
https://www.smh.com.au/national/the-end-of-just-eat-less-science-doesn-t-see-being-fat-as-a-choice-20221027-p5btcp.html Abdication, and abandonment, of personal responsibility [in this 'permissive' age], is what persons like Jane Martin are 'pushing', imo. Yadda paraphrases what darling Jane is actually saying to us..... "I, I, I [or 'we, we, we'], must be permitted to choose, to do anything that i wish !!!!"
"And if some terrible consequence were to arise, from MY CHOICES, well, i want YOU, to attribute responsibility for any blame, to somebody else !!!"
"Because everyone knows, darling, that I, I, I would never do anything, to cause harm to myself or to another." IMO, this is called the personal philosophy of; 'No care, and no responsibility.'. SERIOUS QUESTION;Do you, PERSONALLY, believe in the science of 'cause and effect' ? Q.Where it can be demonstrated that our DIRECT choices or DIRECT actions resulted in a cause or a 'symptom', should we be held legally responsible for [a detrimental] cause or 'symptom' ? responsible = = 1 having an obligation to do something, or having control over or care for someone. 2 being the primary cause of something and so able to be blamed or credited for it. reporting to; answerable to. morally accountable for one’s behaviour.. Whether you regard it as a Karmic paradigm or as simply a basic law of the universe... For every action, there is an equal and opposite reaction. - Newton's Third Law of Motion AND.... Psalms 7:15 He made a pit, and digged it, and is fallen into the ditch which he made. 16 His mischief shall return upon his own head, and his violent dealing shall come down upon his own pate. . FROM THE SAME ARTICLE...And yet more deflection .....[which is a means of blame shifting,] and of seeking to avoid our own PERSONAL RESPONSIBILITY for the consequences of OUR choices. ------ > Quote: Fundamentally, obesity is caused by an energy imbalance. Too much energy in, not enough energy out. “You can’t escape that,” says Professor Stephen Simpson, academic director of the Charles Perkins Centre.
This equation seems to make the cause – and cure – of the obesity epidemic simple: make an individual choice to eat less and exercise more.
But over the past decade, science has discovered this equation is far more complex than it seems.
Careful studies with double-labelled water – water marked with elements scientists can track, allowing for precise measures of metabolism and energy expenditure – show that as we exercise more, our bodies compensate by increasing our hunger and cutting our resting energy expenditure.
One study spent 40 weeks training people who did not exercise to be able to run a half-marathon. To compensate, their bodies increased the amount they ate, and at the end of the study, their resting energy expenditure was lower than when they were sedentary.
".....THEIR BODIES, THEIR BODIES, THEIR BODIES, ....increased the amount they ate...." - the opinion of a 'darling' researcher. Did you catch that ??? It was not their own choice to eat, to excess !!! Oh no !!! It was the choice of, an altogether different entity. An entity, known as; 'THEIR BODIES'. COMMENT;And this is what passes for 'scientific enquiry', and 'sound reasoning', ....today. No wonder this nation, in 2022, is up to its eyes, in sh-it-for-brains experts.
