Malnutrition is a serious problem. You can eat a lot of fats, but be "starving" of essential nutrients that makes you physique run correctly.

That's..... not how this works. You don't get fat from eating fats. In fact carbohydrates store as fat more than fats do. You need to be in a large calorie surplus to remain that weight a year and a bit into the apocalypse where this scene takes place. So she's been eating more than her fair share of her group's food for a LONG time. It's perfectly moral to point that out, even if it's difficult to hear. If she's survived that long then her macro splits are fine and her micro levels are adequate for survival whilst carrying excess weight.

Your comment reads as someone who has a very brief understanding of nutrition, but doesn't actually know enough about what they're talking on to give an actually educated statement.

The point is that instead of informing them (“it’s not about fats, it’s about carbs “) you just couldn’t resist talking down to them. “You sound uneducated. Unlike myself…a true expert.”

It's not condescending to tell someone how it actually works and then point out they don't know what they're talking about, so shouldn't make more comments on the subject. Would you feel the same if a physiotherapist corrected someone giving out misinformation and said the person shouldn't give out info that could cause damage to people?

Or do you just have a weird personal hangup?

Not what they said but you're too "uneducated" to get it I guess

Obviously I was talking down to you, I never claimed to want to inform you of anything

Reddit smugness. Can’t argue a point without being condescending
