Editorial cartoons by Racket News' Daniel Medina
A more insightful version of this cartoon would depict a very overweight or obese person making this statement. The reality is that there is a high correlation between obesity and diabetes in the US. (https://newsroom.heart.org/news/obesity-contributes-to-up-to-half-of-new-diabetes-cases-annually-in-the-united-states).
Fat shaming? Absolutely not. Americans have been failed by their food system (big agriculture) as well as by their medical system (big pharma)*. System failure in the US is widespread and catastrophic, and it might be nice to see a cartoonist with the insight and talent to reflect that reality in their work.
*as well as by their military-industrial-congressional complex, their legacy media, their "judicial" system...the list goes on and on.
