Hey now. I have back pain and I'm not a meatcomet.
Turns out I neglected to stretch my glutes while squatting and training for my half marathon this fall and it fucked up my back. :3
Thin privilege is being able to solve lower back pain with a couple minutes of stretching after my runs.
Some friends and I semi-seriously talk about forming a nerd colony. I'm starting to think about it more seriously. Call it New Sparta, make physical conditioning a prerequisite of living there. An island of /fit/ in a sea of ham.

I thought about this too but it's not going to happen. Honestly, there is always going to be thin/fit people and with these people fats would always have a constant remainder. Not to mention there are many industries like modeling, fashion, ads, that would always feature good looking people. That's just how it will always be because attractiveness sells. And taking into the account that fatties won't be sticking around much too long, it would be almost like natural selection (slower though with medical improvements). There may be more fatties out numbering us, but fatties know deep down that they want to be thin no matter what they preach. Dw mother nature is one of us.

I think the US is already at that point. Obesity is the majority because we live in a glorified lazy, indulgent society. And women have to actively argue against having a C-section in nearly every hospital delivery because it gets you out of the delivery bed and into the recovery bed quicker, or they're too fat to push the spawn out safely.
We've passed the tipping point, OP, sorry. Go rage-workout when you get up.
