But that’s why my analogy works; imagine if all you ever got to eat was potato chips. You’d survive, at least you a little bit, but your quality of life would be abysmal. On occasion they might not be too bad but in excess, or exclusively, you’d die young. Yes, it does take effort to consume something better, especially in a society incentivized to continue feeding you empty calories, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try getting a fresh vegetable in your system.

Oh yeah, I 100% agree with that. Just lamenting about how a lot of people are… well, dull.
Ironically that also works for the metaphor given just how many Americans have terrible fast food diets, either by choice or necessity. Lol.
