Lol, this gem is from thisisthinprivilege.org but the mod edited the answer. But they'll probably say that 'not all starving kids are underweight'. I call bullshit on that because actual medically recognised starvation is marked by a calorie deficiency. Excess adipose tissue automatically makes them exempt from the 'starvation' classification. What they are experiencing is 'fasting' or 'prolonged fasting' and the only reason fat people suffer from malnutrition is due to micronutrient deficiencies(mainly mineral deficiencies like iron or water-soluble vitamin deficiencies like B3 and B12). A shit diet full of empty calories(e.g. burgers, chips and soda) before the fasting period usually is responsible for this.
