But yah, the whole thread was started on a misconception.
Somebody who works a tough job that impacts their posture is not "lazy" or a "bad person". And not everyone can go quit that job and hire a personal trainer to do everything "right".
It's not like jobs that have a physical aspect leave you in a much better place after 30-40 years either.

Au contraire, mon frere. I
did read the whole article. Not that I necessarily had to. The crux of the author’s argument is contained in the first response to the interviewer:
“Nice to meet you.”
“Your posture looks pretty good. And it doesn’t matter — that’s the whole point of my book. It’s fake news.”
The question isn’t of
blame, but whether or not good posture matters. And it definitely does. One article of many:

If your daily routine has you looking like the people in the pictures, you have to make some corrections.
