I agree completely with every assertion Rollo. What mystifies me though, as train wreck as this interview admittedly was, was how Dr. Oz would barely give even an inch that, yes, maybe the "fat acceptance" movement is maybe just a little bit full of shit. You'd think a medical doctor would have taken even 20 or 30 seconds, even with his anti-Roosh agenda (which I get because Oz's primary audience is fat old married women and he has to pander), to maybe plug the benefits of fitness and a healthy lifestyle.

Instead, what he did was line up a panel of four clinically fucking obese (not just "fat", "chubby", or "overweight") women to wag their fat fingers and deliver fat acceptance lectures. None of those women were "marginally overweight"; they were fucking ham-beasts who are heart disease risks at age 40 and beetus type 2 risks earlier than that.

So the message Dr. Oz, the medical doctor, essentially delivered to this audience was, "being clinically obese is just fine in the opinion of this medical doctor, as long as evil fat shamers like Roosh exist. You should be more comfortable with the idea of your obesity than you are with the idea that other people make fun of you. Be comfy in your body, accept your fatness."

And the danger it does to these women is immense, because if a person is "comfortable" and "accepting" of their obesity, then they really have no motivation to really change, right? If fitness is OK, and obesity is OK, what motivation is there to transition from obesity to fitness?

Dr. Oz, IMHO, is betraying the Hippocratic Oath when he betrays clinical science in favor of currying ratings and favor of his primarily obese female audience, and it's disgusting. He's the real "monster", not Roosh. Roosh had the right message, but poor delivery, and yes I agree he did TRP community no favors by doing it, but he definitely wasn't the biggest failure on that soundstage.

The medical doctor minimizing the health problems of obesity was the biggest failure.
