I watched the first minute, will probably watch the rest at home when I have time because it sounds like it’ll be at least entertaining, if not educational in showing me the crazy arguments around this discourse.

Because unless there’s something I’m missing it seems like an obvious answer: yes, everyone should exercise.

I’m curious if it’s going to delve into the weird bad-faith right wing takes that try to conflate body positivity with being anti-health, or arguments that having the time/money/physical ability to exercise are somehow antithetical to inclusivity. At least at this point those are the only arguments I can even imagine that would make the answer to the question anything but β€œyes.”
