    The current one is did you know that medical doctors continue to reccomend "diet and exercise" as the only reliable way to lose weight, and in fact routinely refuse medical care to fat people and treat fat people with contempt, when it is provable by overwhelming evidence that "diet and exercise" fails to reduce body weight for 90+% of people? That's not bad medical advice, that's an entire culture of deliberate malpractice.

    There's also evidence that people who are fat but not extremely obese have better health outcomes and live longer, despite conditions like diabetes, that skinny people.

    Doctor's hate this one weird trick that's supported by evidence from numerous studies because they're superstitious bigots.
