Also an active alcoholic during filming
(media.piefed.world)
There's literally a section in the documentary where his doc is like 'You're getting liver damage from this diet. I don't believe it. I've only ever seen this from alcoholics.'
Thats the level of explaining USAmericans needed for this. Unless you directly show it to them in 1:1 the exact same way that they would experience it, they will not believe you. Even if you do, they will still call the film fake and CGI and whatever they like today.
The point he was trying to make is that people that eat McDonald's every day are unhealthy, and sure, the alcoholism on top of it made everything worse, but do we really think that MCD's is the only bad choice those people are making?
Like someone willing to eat a shitload of fast food (not for a movie) also is likely to have alcohol or substance use disorders, or eat unhealthy amounts of sugar, or not exercise.
I think a fair point was made regardless of the shenanigans.
Well that doesn't magically make mcd's healthy. Especially fries and sugary soda.
I know. I'm saying it for those who will read, "it's fake" and immediately discount its message. We both know there are far too many people out there like that.
That is a funny coincidence then
