Americans are a bunch of entitled victims


Now, I know all Americans are not entitled and work hard for what they have and have good, traditional values. But for the majority, they love being the victims. They are never responsible for their own actions. It's always someone or something else that made them fat or the reason they can't do this or that. Nobody forced you to go to McDonald's three times a week and ordered a Big Mac. No one told you to have a bunch of kids out of wedlock or married that dude that your father told you was no good and left you for another woman. We think we are entitled to governmental assistance. We think we are entitled to Medicare. We think we are entitled to healthcare or the American dream. And when things don't go the way we think it should, we want to place the blame on someone else instead of looking at the person in the mirror. The majority of you know by common sense that this diet makes sense. Eat food, mostly plants, not too much.Eat everything in moderation even meat, plants, vegetables, and fruits.Too much of anything is bad for you. We have to eat to live and not live to eat.

So instead of fat women protesting and forcing retailers catering to skinny people to hire them or create clothing their size. Create your own boutique that cater to someone of your size. Instead of making the word "fat" politically incorrect and now we have to call all fat people obese to overweight to not make them feel sensitive or self-conscious about themselves or offended by calling a spade a spade, accept that you are and start making steping to living a healthier lifestyle. If you are genetically big boned, then live a lifestyle as healthy as you possibly can.

Gay people! Stop shoving your lifestyle down everyone's throats. You're just as bad as the Christians you constantly bashed and mock like you are superior to them for believing in something bigger than themselves. If a business doesn't want to cater to you, instead of protesting it, go somewhere else or create your own. It's like you want the entire word to accept your lifestyle. No one gives a damn about what you do behind close doors but respect that people don't agree with your lifestyle and still like you as a human being.


Black people. Stop protesting and begging the white man for everything and create your own. You can create your own communities and businesses again without the white man.You can stop the violence in your own communities instead of expecting justice from an injustice system that targets black and cater to only whites especially rich, white people.Stop being the victim and start being the victor. White people are never going to admit to the wrong they have done to you for centuries until modern day and racism will never end. Accept it, leave the Democratic and Republicans alone and start working together to rebuild your communities once again.

I can go on and on, but my point is that everyone can help themselves without being the victim. Things don't change when you are the victim. Things change when you admit the truth to yourself and start taking control of your life and actions. I know what I say is going to offend people. But remember, you are choosing to let my words offend you. Some are going to go out of the way to justify why people are like that or certain group of people are in the plight they are in. We know why! The thing is stop being the victim. Get out of your comfort zone and start living your life. You not going to change people but you can change yourself.

People are lazy. It's easier to play the victim than it is to actually do something. When all you have to do is loudly complain about something to get everyone to cave to your demands, there's no real incentive not to do it. I think the people constantly caving to the demands of these idiots are even worse than the ones doing the complaining in the first place, because it's basic conditioning - entitled person behaves poorly, you reward them for that behavior, so they continue behaving like that, and every time they're rewarded for bad behavior it just drills it even further into their heads to keep being like that.

Some of what you said was right and then it just turned into near prejudice.

The U.S. is a first world country and that means, at no point, should any choice be denied whatsoever. Once that happens, everything turns third world. If blacks and gays and fat women did their own thing, they might as well create their own country and that is NOT what being American (more politically correct, U.S. citizen) should be. I would say the U.S. should cater to most, yet people do still need to be responsible. The whole reason of why America is so great is because of all the minorities. Back in the day, colonists came over and were probably idiots. The only smart ones WE THINK were the founding fathers. What came next? Wars. We won wars through assisting other countries and we acquire German scientists. Then acquired blacks and Asians. They were most great for menial work. Then Japanese came over and they added their brains to the mix. Then Indians (not Native Americans) and so forth. Hispanics can outwork any other ethnic group and never complain as much. We have to be proud of that and we all are trying to work for a common goal (unlike what most Conservative minded people think).

I would say that most people being victim is because their choices are inhibited. From your argument, it is because gay people are denied, fat people are denied, and black people are denied. This slows progression down. It is almost like the confederacy seceding from the union. Third world.

If you're fat, it's nobody's fault but your own. Beginning right now, expend more calories than you consume, and you will gradually become less and less fat, until one day you will be normal. That's all there is to it, but if you keep denying that fact and lying to yourself and blaming something outside yourself, you will always remain fat. Good luck.
