They're putting the emphasis of the blame on the food industry and the government being in bed (which we know is true) and not enough emphasis on the parents feeding their kids shit foods and a lack of exercise.

In the end it is right; you will have better luck losing weight if you avoid junk food.
However, it denies the whole "calories in vs calories out" concept which is just not true.
It mentions that a calorie from almonds is not the same as a calorie from chocolate, and yes, sure that is true because of the quality of that calorie, but technically you can lose weight on 1500 calories of chocolate just as you would lose weight on 1500 calories of almonds.

That film is an evil fatshaming propaganda! It's made by godless people who just want to humiliate perfectly healthy 500 lbs hard-working Americans! My feelings were so hurt after watching it that I was forced to eat a jar of Nutella just to be able to calm down so I could fall asleep at night.

I didn't like it. Anything that goes again CICO is bullshit. Sugar is not the problem. It's the idiots that eat it, feel hungry, don't understand why they feel hungry, and then eat more. The problem is always willful stupidity. ALWAYS. No one taught me how to do what I do. Many years ago, I typed "bodybuilding how to eat" and "bodybuilding how to train" into google and read the first 10 links for each result. This is all that it takes and I have ZERO sympathy whenever I see whale tears about how they don't know, or weren't taught, or it's hard.
It's not hard; you're not entitled to be taught perfectly; you have no excuse to not know.
