  Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is too nuts to be secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services. Also the left: We need a pro-obesity activist as a health consultant in one of the nation's biggest cities.

The article from MSN discusses the controversial hiring of a "morbidly obese" activist by the city of San Francisco as a health consultant. This individual, who identifies as a "fat liberationist," has been appointed to advise on health policies, particularly those concerning obesity. Critics argue that this appointment sends a mixed message about public health, especially in a city known for promoting wellness and fitness. The activist's role includes advocating for body positivity and challenging traditional views on obesity, aiming to shift public health narratives towards acceptance and away from weight stigma. However, this decision has sparked debate over the implications for public health initiatives, with some questioning the alignment of such advocacy with conventional health guidelines that link obesity to various health risks.
