yes, i agree with this but there are too many industries (especially doctors, food, and drug) making money off them. so you have to incentivize them having fewer fat patients. whole new sub-industries have been created off the backs of blobs. but consumerism is bad in general and everyone has a share of the blame. fat people definitely have a larger portion of the blame (sadly this is a portion they can't eat) but profit not environmentalism runs economies and countries. it would be a nice fantasy to think that society could keep people in line and not let them outstrip resources so quickly though.

Just because fats virtue signal with everyone else doesn't mean they give a shit about anything. Obesity exacerbates involuntary celibacy, nurses' back failure, rotting flesh, and more; yet, the beasts keep eating. If you really support depopulation, give up on trying to communicate with couch bison and start tipping them into traffic instead.

That'd be fine too but I would feel a lot more sorry for the driver with bumper and windshield damage than for the fat family of the sacrificial whale.

Well, they definitely use more resources.

  • Their clothes take more material, don't last as long, require more loads to launder, and can't be donated because no one wants something worn by fats.

  • They are less likely to walk or bike somewhere. More likely to drive car. Car will not be compact because they can't fit in compact. The extra weight causes more strain on the vehicle and uses more gas. Fats have to replace vehicles more frequently. They also need to replace any product that supports their weight (furniture) more often too.

  • Fats use more farming and agricultural resources. They eat more and will waste food in certain situations that benefit them. For example, ordering 4 pizzas and returning 4 half eaten pizzas in order to get money back / free meal. Just by nature of overeating it is a waste of food.

  • Fats are more likely to use more energy. They need to run the AC lower than a human in an attempt to minimize sweating and be comfortable. They cook more food and use more dishes. Just by nature of being overweight, it takes more energy to do things. This makes them lazy, for example: fat forgets to turn off light leaving room, but has already sat down, that light will be on all night!

  • Fats require more medical treatment. Medical treatment usually comes with some kind of cost to the environment. For example, the prevalence of anti-biotics. Certain medical wastes are bad for the environment or hard to dispose of. Not to mention all the personnel, facilities and special bariatric medical supplies.

Excellent, thank you for confirming my idea.

The environmentally friendly thing would be to either harpoon them as a harpoon can be used over and over again. Alternatively they could be forced to spend all waking hours minimum 16 on tread mills to generate electric for humans.

All of this, and then some I am sure. If something were to wipe out all the fats I'm convinced the world would last alot longer. Being fat should be illegal, punishable by prison sentence including mandatory rationing and forced labor/exercise. You get out once you're human, and if you become fat again you are summarily executed because you were given a chance already, repeat offenders will not be tolerated.

You're not wrong, but the problem is that you are arguing about consequences. Fats' bodies are monuments against acceptance of consequences for their actions, and every fat people hate story is a testament of the same.

Fats consume a LOT. They are dooming the planet, and they don't give two shits. I knew a fat once who only used paper plates, cups, and cutlery because he didn't want to wash them every time. And just think of all the Starbeeuts and Fast Food cups everywhere.

Surprised he didn't just put everything in a plastic bag and devour it like the horse he is.

Well a little take on it, the amount of lard arses who ride scootypuffs, the power has to come from some source and heat will be produced plus materials to build them, Lion batteries are highly damaging to the environment in production. I drive a very economical diesel car, 55-60 urban 65-80 motorway, I rarely see fats in smaller economical cars they tend to go for large gas gluttonous cars as the want bigger seats. The fuel used transporting the food is a multiple of the amount a human eats, plus as they eat a greater percentage of processed food that again uses more power. Then there is extra material for clothes, greater wear and tear on things they use and break as well as stuff I can not think of right now. Please note I do not in any way approve of the stinky fats using cars or scootypuffs or public transport for that matter, they should be made to walk every place, they might get some exercise then.
