You are both ridiculous,
France is one of the largest donors when it comes to foreign aid:
- France is the fifth-largest donor country, spending US$11.3 billion on net official development assistance (ODA) in 2017, a 15% increase from 2016. This represents 0.43% of its gross national income (GNI), up from 0.38% in 2016.
They also spend
more on social welfare than most other countries, basically a third of its GDP goes towards helping people in need:
- In 2016, France spent €714.5 billion on social welfare which represents 32.1 percent of the country's GDP compared to an average of 27.5 percent for the rest of the European Union.
And that's not even mentioning the capital generated by private donations through welfare NGOs.
Also you should be aware that
obesity is linked to poverty, because cheap low quality food is rich in empty calories, like sugar, and low on nutrients. In many cases, living a healthy live is costly, hence why
obesity is more prevalent within poor populations rather than rich ones. In the U.S., the most “obese” state,
Arkansas, is also the fourth poorest state overall, whereas the poorest state,
Mississippi, is also the third most overweight. In the UK,
obesity prevalence for children living in the most deprived areas in both age groups was
more than double that of those living in the least deprived areas. So the next time you're ridiculing someone for his weight, you might wanna think about that.
Also, the Church does not own Notre Dame, but the state, which is also the case in most European countries. If you want to virtue-signal because you've picked up on the latest fallacious injustice that's currently trending on social media, at the very least inform yourself before spreading false information based on fake outrage.
Lastly, your whole argument is based on the
fallacy of relative privation. If something is worse than the problem currently being discussed, that doesn't mean that the problem currently being discussed isn't that important at all. If you can't complain about X just because there exists another problem, Y, that's worse than X, then the only person who has any right to complain at all is the person who objectively has it worst in every way possible. The other 7 billion people's problems are meaningless by this reasoning.
If you'd truly care about the poor people of this world, you'd actually inform yourself on what's actually being done and what's not being done. Your general lack of knowledge in this regard merely indicates that your interest is not in helping people, but in hollow moral grandstanding.
