Fortunately, there are cost-free alternatives. And the health improvements from the cost free methods will also improve productivity and even lead to higher income.
That isn't our way. We aren't known for patience or long suffering. We want quick solutions. That's why surgery and drugs are popular.
But I can see health playing a part in job selection and promotion. Especially as layoffs continue and they're cutting costs. A healthier workforce requires less expensive policies. There was an initiative in the past led by employees that shifted the burden to those who required the extras that resulted in higher premiums. Smoking and weight were two of the conditions but there were others. They believed it was unfair to pay extra for coverage they didn't require. I didn't follow the story but I'm not surprised.
We'll definitely see it in social media and the platforms that are promoted. Nara Smith is a great example. That isn't the typical image of a woman in the kitchen we expect and that's intentional. Everything they put in your face is meant to trigger you. Women look at her and they like her or explode. And the powers love it.
I'm not very particular with size but proportion does matter to me.
When you consider the reality we're going backwards in its proper context you'll understand why there's a greater emphasis on appearance for the sexes. You had the gentleman and the dandy and the lady. They were the fashionistas of that period. But the rest were working class and they have a different narrative. That's what the red pill provides.
They're meant to incite men against modernity. In particular where women are concerned. By opting out or doubling down on tradition they prepare the population for a reduction in income. Once you convince him she's better off at home and he's willing to make the sacrifice he'll get along with less without complaint.
That's where trad wives come in. She stokes the ego and restores the man's dignity by her attention to the home and domesticity. He isn't threatened. She keeps the women occupied by cooking, cleaning, and minutiae for daily living. Her image is unrealistic but she won't tell you how to be like her. You're meant to mimic the example or get upset.
Then there's the gurus of course. They give you the stats and truth about dating, marriage, etc. That's meant to foster hopelessness and anxiety. That's why their platforms are big. The more you listen the less you'll do until you throw in the towel.
This is all a foreshadowing of transhumanism. They have to make you miserable with your condition, envy another's or be willing to undergo significant changes to have the same. Designer bodies are the first step. They created a drug you can't have unless you can pay out of pocket perpetually. Weight loss surgery is on the chopping block. They'll reclassify the procedure as cosmetic or make it nearly impossible to get it approved.
They don't want a healthy society. That's why the $1 menu is back at fast food restaurants. They're giving you the tools to unravel yourself. Whether it's through food, poverty, health, stress or loneliness. They're filling your screen with messages that make you feel worse. They know the average person won't take the higher road. They'll feed what hurts.
Keep doing what you're doing. People are beginning to crack and you'll see greater fractures in the coming years because the pressure is mounting. Several years ago I said we'll see the return of relationships of convenience as things worsen. Be mindful of that as your fortunes improve.
