>The obesity examples fails because obesity is non-contagious.

There's plenty of research showing that people tend to gravitate toward the weight of other people they are around.

What an interesting response, do you really think obesity is similar to a contagious virus or are you just grasping at straws to support your ideology?

All I'm doing is pointing out that a statement in the parent comment is false, nitpicking essentially. It's kind of what we do here. There's no need to project an entire ideology onto me. Just because I disagree with one particular falsehood on one particular side of an issue does not immediately mean I am on the "other team".
