Lots of fat people are insufficiently shamed?

I don’t think under-mocking is a cause of the obesity epidemic. And I don’t think more mockery can solve it.

Like her or hate her, the positive message promoted by Michelle Obama had the same goal, and had a much better chance to help.

If it emphasized portion control over kale, it would have been better. But still.
