    Gee, straw man, you somehow wrote an entire paragraph while ignoring literally all of my points 👍

      The points keep changing. Went from cheaper to buy fast food to takes more effort to make food to it needs to be well rounded. The goal posts keep moving. It’s been my experience that it takes less time and money to make a healthy meal at home. I don’t know why that’s a problem to you.

        The fact that I had several points (in a single comment, mind you) does not mean that they keep changing. I suggest you revisit what moving goalposts actually means.

        It’s been my experience that it takes less time and money to make a healthy meal at home. I don’t know why that’s a problem to you.

        That’s been my experience, too. Like I’ve already said, I frequently cook cheap, healthy meals at home. I rarely eat fast food.

        But my original points aren’t centered around my—or your—personal experience; we’re not the only two people who exist. Everyone has varying degrees of resources and ability.

          My comments are in reply to it’s cheeper to buy fast food than healthy food. I pointed out that’s not always the case. I’m not the one using the disabled as a strawman to attack anyone’s point.

            TIL that merely mentioning the struggles and limitations that disabled people face—as a disabled person—within a seemingly cordial discussion about peoples’ access and ability to cook healthy meals means I’m literally ATTACKING the point of the person I’m replying to.

              Please discuss that under a comment relating to the poor overworked disabled peoples access to food. The topic at hand was is it cheaper to buy fast food or healthy food before you railroaded it. Blocked.
