      That is a basic tenet of Stoicism, and let's just say that Stoicism is a little bit problematic of a philosophy.
      Are you getting a niggling feeling that you are participating in a system that might be doing extreme harm? Don't worry about it, you don't have control over it. Keep on participating.
      Stoicism is a great philosophy for the PMC and elites. Christianity's promise of heaven after suffering in life is for the poors.
      I'm more of an Epicurean and Marxist myself.

    For whatever it's worth, probably not much, it was the battle of Leyte Gulf, and the phrase was "Where is, repeat, where is Task Force Thirty Four? The world Wonders." Which is actually funnier than what Matt said. And the reason Halsey was upset was not because the command (CINCPAC) was mad at him, it was because he left the transports completely unguarded and becaue he wouldn't get the "big battle" he had always wanted his entire professional life. Anyway, whatever. Correcting the record on the internet is a fool's game, and I guess I'm the fool this time.

    The story was actually that during the Philippines Campaign in 1944 (when the US returned to liberate its former colony from the Japanese occupation), the Imperial Japanese Navy launched an enormous, 3-prong counterattack. The USN spotted the IJN forces as they approached and split their force into three parts to deal with it. The old, slow battleships went south to cut off the southern force while the fast carriers and fast battleships went north to attack the Japanese northern force (which unbeknownst to Halsey was bait; the carriers were loaded up with outdated planes and untrained pilots and got slaughtered), while a token force of slow destroyer escorts and escort carriers (codename Taffy 3) were left behind to cover the landing forces and hunt for submarines. Halsey felt confident that such a weak force could hold the center as he was under the impression the IJN's center force was driven away by an air attack which sunk the battleship Musashi. Halsey was then convinced to detach his fast battleships (code name Task Force 34) from his fleet and ordered them to be sent to hold the center, but due to a miscommunication, those battleships weren't available.
    Fast forward some time later and suddenly Taffy 3 is under attack from the IJN's center force-it hadn't actually turned around. They start frantically asking for Task Force 34 (the fast battleships they were told they had available). Now, at the time, messages had a prefix and suffix appended onto them in order to fool decryption efforts. This particular message had the prefix "TURKEY TROTS TO WATER" and suffix "THE WORLD WONDERS". The guy decrypting the message correctly identified the prefix but kept the suffix appended to the message since he was unsure if it was part of the intended message or not. Then, the message was relayed to Halsey, who sees the message:
    WHERE IS, REPEAT, WHERE IS TASK FORCE 34? THE WORLD WONDERS.
    And to be fair to Halsey, this would be a tremendous slap in the face and could've been the critical minutes in which he career ends along with the lives of tens of thousands of men under his command. If Taffy 3 is being attacked by a force this powerful, *obviously* they're about to be wiped out along with the landing fleet, which means potentially the deaths of 100,000+ men and the total failure of the Philippines campaign. It would all tie back to his leadership and his failure to leave the fast battleships behind, and this message would become the defining L of his career...
    ...But then miraculously, Taffy 3 wins the battle. Comprised of just slow destroyer escorts and some unprotected, slow escort carriers, they drive off a force whose flagship has a greater displacement than their entire force combined. Halsey goes down as one of the most decorated admirals in USN history.

Everyone's different, life is fucked up and strange and unequal; nobody really knows what's going on in stranger's lives; nobody was really meant to have access to the quantity and """quality""" of food in America, for instance, and a lot of it is made to be addictive, on purpose, by powerful concerns with a vested interest in keeping things unsustainable and unhealthy! There are big forces at work on everybody's lives, some people get squeezed way harder than others, by different forces (for any number of reasons), not everyone is able to cope or adapt, and everyone already knows all this!
      People just really love shitting on fat people, because it's an acceptable group to shit on with no negative consequences. Which is great news if you're a smug cunt, but it's clearly not working if the desired outcome is healthier people.
