Ok look, I want to preface this by saying I am not saying this out of hate for anyone, but because I think your ignorance may cause actual harm to people.

it’s kind of obvious that this post is referring to the fat/body positivity movement. And yeah you know what, telling people to be unhealthy is bad. But no one actually does that. What people do, is tell fat or obese people that they shouldn’t feel like their bodies are inherently ugly (which by the way finding fat people ugly is rooted in actual racism) it’s telling them that despite what people have said, being obese is not a moral failing. Because you know what people do when they’re made to feel that way? TW EDS, SELF HARM! They starve and sometimes even hurt or kill themselves. They feel terrible. TW END. People don’t celebrate poor health. They celebrate that their bodies are beautiful and worthy of love. People are obese for a variety of reasons; mental health, genetics, disease, and yes, eating too much or not exercising enough. But none of those things mean anyone deserves to be shamed. So yeah. It is ok for people to be obese, because their health is their business, and no one should refrain from celebrating themselves or their bodies just because they are unhealthy.

Hot take: people should not celebrate or endorse obesity. Making something that is very unhealthy seem okay isn't right, especially something like weight.

Edit: I wholeheartedly do not mean to insult or make anyone feel bad. I support anyone who is fat, being fat does not make you a bad person or anything, but it's extremely important to understand that weight issues can be big health problems and it's important to care about weight.

Again, I mean no harm to anyone. If you are feeling depressed or negative, please reach out. There are people who will support you.

I feel like people should just be honest, being fat/obese is a personal choice. If you chose to not work out, then you have a higher chance of heart disease, and there are a tons of disadvantages, like traveling on an airplane, not being able to do a lot of things, being generally not very mobile. But some people love eating a lot, so it’s worth it to them. We obviously should not shame people, but we also don’t want to gaslight them into thinking being fat has no disadvantages, because it does, it’s a fair trade off, you eat tons of food and can drink as much soda as you want, but on the flip side, you live shorter and some things are harder to do. Doctors and the media should accurately explain the side effects, and let people make the decision for themselves. And we ofc should judge people by what they choose to do with their life, because life is short, and people are entitled to lead their own life

literally no one asked you

the “i know i’m wrong so i have no response” response

What am I supposed to respond to? You just said to log out? I was saying leave me alone unless your actually gonna challenge an idea

maybe you should follow my advice ^^

I mean, I technically did, about 20 minutes ago I logged in an out of beta.

All I did was say this, we should make it clear that being obese has it’s disadvantages. Then we should just let people live their own life. It’s their choice

No one was mad or argueing until this point. It’s always a civil debate until you show up

i never said any of that, i just think your comment is really weird and you should log out and touch grass!! fyi, lying about someone to their face doesn’t make your argument stronger, as a matter of fact, it does the opposite.

Also, why are you mad, I literally said we shouldn’t shame fat people.

i just think saying it’s a personal choice is weird!!!! :3

Based esben as always

There are some other factors like dna but for the most part, yeah.
