    Physical fitness is good, the cult of physical fitness based on aesthetics and eugenics is not. Making a mountain out of this molehill isn’t really productive IMO.

      The message is that being fit isn’t important for some reason because you’re going to do a revolution with FACTS and LOGIC

        True. Both posters seem to use it interchangeably with being weak and I’m just a little annoyed by it is all.

          The CIA loves nothing more than a fully neutered movement which focuses exclusively on verbal action and takes no physical material action. Words are a means to spur to real action. Without that words hold no power.

        I mean, if you ignore all context and see eugenics in both spots. I just want to highlight how the framing itself is reactionary.
