But the obsession over types of sugar is largely ephemeral. All sugars are highly processed and refined and equally bad. HFCS's only crime is it's cheapness and ubiquity.
Funnily enough, for interesting chemistry reasons, it doesn't matter which type of sugar you put in, it all breaks down into glucose and fructose anyway! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NY66qpMFOYo

The praxis of the dark side is to be ongoingly aggresive, to always bring out the worst in people. This is just another swing at that.
