I'm creating this thread in the hope of syphoning off people who seriously want a discussion about my concerns without further thread derailment from the Endgame OT2 thread. I'll link to this thread and then anybody who is still interested in arguing can come to this one and that will be that.
Don't read any further if you want to avoid knowledge of MCU events so far. Don't even think of going on unless you have watched Endgame and the first Iron Man film. You can sort of assume that, as this is largely a philosophical discussion, there may be references to key plot points in media that you have not yet consumed. Please take this as a hint to educate yourself more fully. I don't have time to wait for you to catch up with To Kill a Mockingbird or Catcher in the Rye. Just do your homework.

] I've got a serious concern about child abuse and exploitation, which has led to my expression of what I consider to be mild concern about the scene in which a five-year-old says they want a burger, and a parent figure says they can have as many as they want. These scene is very poignant and is very moving to most fans. But I'm worried about this because of what it says to me, as an experienced parent who has witnessed the growth of childhood obesity over nearly six decades, about the public awareness of obesity.
Obesity is a killer, and modern highly processed foods are the key suspects. WHO has been clear about the dangers of obesity, its epidemiology, and its likely outcome for adult healthy life expectancy. At this stage there is no doubt that poor diet is a killer in developed and developing countries.
For further reading I suggest a remarkably unfictional website, Wikipedia.
