    thank you for this, i scrolled looking for someone saying this, and almost commented something myself, much less well-put. it seems to be a ubiquitous belief that anyone with type-2 diabetes got it from making sinful food choices, rather than it being caused by unknown factors, and there being many risk associations such as stress and genetics, but also including weight. to me the bottom line is that it isn’t a settled question, and it irritates me when people act like it is, and moreso act like the answer just so happens to perfectly align with fatphobia
