not call YOU disingenuous. That's what you're all worked up over??? I can't imagine how you'd react if I'd said something like you're a "myopic dense fool".

I said "Trying to compare actual infectious agents to learned behaviors and genetics is disingenuous at best." Obviously I'm talking about the logic of trying to compare an infectious disease with learned behaviors (you know exactly what I said) but somehow you managed to take it super personal. It's amusing that you somehow think that is a personal insult but calling me "dishonest" and a "myopic dense fool" is a-ok. But you want to talk about me "attacking" you.

You want to talk about me wrongly attributing things, how about you saying this:

"and here you come in with more "BUT IT'S NOT CONTAGIOUS IN THE SAME WAY!""

Not only did I never say that. I said the exact opposite.

Basically everything you're trying to say I did is something you've done yourself.

As far as this statement: "I've acknowledged and stated numerous times it isn't the same."

That's not exactly what you said. You said "I acknowledged numerous times it isn't contagious in the same way that viruses like the cold and covid-19 are."

It's not contagious at all. That's the disagreement here. I realize you're saying it's not contagious "in the same way". I'm saying... it's not contagious in any way because... it's not no qualifier needed. I understand the point you're trying to make about obesity having a learned component, running in families, etc. That does not make it contagious in any way.

As far as this discussion, it could have all been avoided if you had either A) not posted an unfunny and completely inaccurate "joke" or B) not gotten so bent out of shape when someone pointed out that your "joke" was not funny and inaccurate. You also seem to be confused on how message boards work. I'll respond to your post if I want to. If you don't like my response or find it disingenuous (did I just insult myself???!!!) then you're free to ignore it. I do it here every day.
