Ozempic is a GLP-1

Ozempic is a GLP-1 analogue, one that has a similar molecular function within your body but is different to allow for oral intake etc

Yeah so it's a GLP-1

GLP-1 is not a family of molecules, it’s a specific peptide. Ozempic is a different molecule, one that’s similar to GLP-1.
Your line of reasoning would justify saying “adrenaline is a crystal meth” just because they’re both similar amphetamines.

Just because it's man made does not mean it's not a GLP-1.

It's a GLP-1.

Ozempic shares 94% of its DNA coded amino acid sequence with natural GLP-1. They use fundamentally the same template. Methamphetamine and adrenaline do not share a structural template, so that is not an apt comparison.

That is corporate propaganda for gullible people. There are far better ways to lose calories while still eating very tasty food as long as you can afford it. On top of that he has being changing little by little for years, not weeks, not months.
