>they eat too many calories which makes them obese
That's how anybody becomes obese.
>this is extremely expensive for the taxpayers to deal with, because the obese poors consume astronomical amounts of free emergency healthcare
Are they eating the healthcare? What are you even talking about? 90% of the population can barely afford healthcare as it is. Maybe start by making healthcare easily accessible if you're so worried about people waiting until an emergency to seek medical attention.
>compounded by the fact that poor people are too stupid to consume cheaper preventative care
Now they're eating preventative care too? Again, it's not that they're too stupid; we simply don't invest in accessible preventative care in this country. You must have at least been a fan of Michelle Obama's school lunch program, right?
>they also threaten to undermine the national defense because we don't have a population that's capable of fighting in a war
I have no problem with lowering defense spending. If you're worried about your tax dollars you should really start there.
>they also look hideous and make the country ugly
A fat American in a $10,000 suit looks just as hideous as the Canadians in the image you posted.

Saying a burger can be enhanced with American cheese is like saying french fries can be enhanced with ketchup. Yeah, they're classic, familiar combinations that most people aren't going to complain about eating every so often, but most people are also going to have half a dozen different cheeses they'd choose to put on a burger before American, just like they'd choose half a dozen other things to dip their fries in before ketchup. Being acceptable isn't the same as being good.

>i've never been to a real restaurant in my life
That's really sad, dude.

Yeah, a well done burger patty. Anything past medium is disgusting. There are a million different combinations of toppings that work well together, but if the burger itself is overcooked it honestly doesn't matter what else you add or don't.

>pajeets think they are flavorless... they really hate them... but they have to imitate their white overlords at microsoft
I live literally 10 minutes away from an Intel, which means I have a few dozen amazing Indian restaurants and grocery stores nearby, and I've never seen a single avocado at any of those places. I don't really understand how a culture on the opposite side of the planet with a very particular taste for foods grown in their homeland for centuries not liking avocados means anything. Fortunately I can go across the street from the Indian place to the Vietnamese place and get an avocado shake to go with my aloo gobi, palak paneer, baingan bharta, biryani, naan, raita, and chutney. I fucking love being born in America.

>actively harmful to everyone else by pressuring and lobbying on a governmental level
Insofar as there is such a thing as "vegan lobbyists", they haven't accomplished shit. They can be annoying, but not any more so than keto fags, for example. Most vegans understand that most people don't share their views and don't make a big issue of pushing their views on people who aren't interested. I actually like arguing with vegans because they all have the same half dozen arguments and at the end it always comes down to, "well, I just think eating animals is wrong", and I'm always like, "okay, I've never had that visceral experience of being repulsed by meat, so I guess that's that." The last time I met a vegan who was actually obnoxious and obstinate was probably in undergrad, where some 19 year old read a Jordan Peterson tier schlock popular "science" book arguing for veganism and took it as gospel (3 months earlier).

Keto fags, on the other hand, are usually former fatties who needed some strict meme diet to follow in order to get their life in shape and can't possibly understand that other people can be healthy without following the exact stupid thing that worked for them. This is true for most meme diets, and just /fit/ fags in general (they are all former/current fatties). This is why /fit/ fags always talk about "making it"; they think that anyone who isn't /fit/ must be a fat slob just like they were/are. It's pure projection and makes them far more obnoxious than any vegan.
