I am aware of the context of this specific show, but it still does not invalidate its parallel to the age we live in.

I'm pretty sure it's was a treehouse of horrors story, where the teachers were eating the students. But fattening up to be eaten or fattening up sure to laziness are close enough.

It was "Treehouse of Horror V", that specific segment was "Nightmare Cafeteria".

Cannibalism sounds more moral than gluttony.

Don't trip dude the Simpsons is totally relevant to the sub. Hell, there's an episode where Homer gets so fat his apathy nearly results in the entire town being destroyed. God, I love that show.

There is also an episode where Marge mentions that Homer puts butter in his coffee, now in real life people are putting butter in their coffee and saying it will help them lose weight. The world is on crazy pills.

You know, and the one where Bart washes himself with a rag on a stick.

Fat studies CANNOT be real. Don't link me to some article about how it is real. It doesn't really matter if I'm right or wrong but knowing that people are out there getting degrees in "fat studies" would just ruin my week, so as far as I'm concerned, that's not a thing.

Witness the death of higher learning, no longer will it be a place to force an expansive of your mindset but a voluntary closing of the offensive open-mindedness in all of America generation by generation. Once the education industry finishes 'enlightening' its personnel to the truth of social justice these values will grow to completely change America. Now that the two-party system works to protect itself bureaucratically from third parties it won't be stoppable.

Just because one denies something is real does not make it a figment of your imagination.
I will link to this site.
And this one.
Look at Emily Contois.
And now the real kicker.
Here is some eyebleach for you.
