I absolutely despise the idea of "fatphobia"
Fatphobia is not real. Not only is it stupid, but it's also disrespectful to people who experience actual oppresion.
I was once very fat, bordering on obese, but even then, i never bought into the "fat acceptance" bullshit. I knew and understood that it was my fault and responsibility. (Child obesity is a more complex issue, because it's more that often the parents fault for feeding their kids unhealthy food).
But anyways, I eventually realized that I was slowly killing myself, and I made a change. I lost over 60 pounds and am now at a healthy weight and bmi.
Recently, i've seen so many people talking about the hardships of fatphobia and as a actual oppressed group, it infuriating.
I am a poc and a member of the LGBT community. All my life, I have experienced bullying and physical harassment because of those factors. Now you might be thinking, "fat people experience those things too!", but the key difference is that fat people can change. I can't. I will never be able to stop experiencing racism and homophobia, but if they really wanted to, fat people could stop experiencing fatphobia.
Now, I do not support bullying or giving people unsolicited health advice, but i do think that fat people should stop playing victim. No, you are not oppressed or discriminated against for being
fat, and (white,cis,straight) fat people will never understand what true oppression feels like.
Also, before someone tries to bring up the fact that some people cannot lose weight because of a medical condition, this does not apply to them. But the majority of fat people do not have a medical condition that stifles weight loss, so don't try to to use that as a justification.
Oh god not this shit again cant u ppl go back to Twitter and suffer in silence
Oh my god shut the fuck up op no one's cares about what you think go home
clearly you do
They fucking got me guys. They got me with a 5 year Olds, no you. Great fucking comeback really showed me and put me in my place/s
im glad to hear!
also, i recommend a little something called grammar! based on your message, you've probably never heard of it!
Oh they got me again guys they got me with a Grammer so therfore no matter what we say it's null and void because "um achtually"
Get a life because you clearly don't have one besides being a bitch
fine then, you want to have an arguement, lets argue.
first of all, explain to me why fatphobia is real oppression, and on the same level as racism/transphobia/homophobia?
also, while were at it, show me three RELIABLE sources that being fat is not a detriment to some ones health and overall life expectancy.
PS: Buzzfeed isn't a reliable source!
No 😌
You can easily do it yourself. The only reason you don't want to is because you don't care and are dead set in what you believe. It won't matter how many 'reliable' sources I send you, you will always find faults and flaws with them just like how anti vaxxiers will still be anti vaxx despite the numerous scientific sources that are out there proving them wrong.
You want the sources? There's plenty found on other blogs and online. Go find em.
wait wait. do you hear that? it think its the exuse train!
your reply is pure bs. just admit you dont have them and that your arguement is based purely off your pwoor lwittle fweelings uwu🥺
what do you put when a teacher asks for sources to support an argumentative essay?
"sorry ma'am but no 😌
you can easily do it yourself. you want the sources? theres plenty found online. go find em"
also, its really rich of you to claim that im like an anti-vaxxer who doesnt listen to scientific sources when the literal CDC has proven that being fat is detrimental to health and yet you refuse to accept that.
Sources (because my arguement isnt based purley on emotion);

Yeah I'm not gonna read all that since I don't care about what you have to say
If you were able to find sources for yourself you should easily find sources that show fatphobia. Butcha won't
at this point just admit you dont have them💀
you think i should spend my time looking for sources when you wont even skim through the sources i have so kindly gathered for you.
you FA people just want an exuse to be complacent. you guys want sit on your asses on day and do jack shit while others cater to you. its not gonna happen. the side effects of being fat kill thousands each year. you are actively encouraging people to engage in a lifestyle that could kill them. its like the equivalent of encouraging an alcoholic, a smoker, or a drug addict to keep doing the the thing that hurts them.
i dont hate fat people. i actually believe that a lot, if not most, fat people suffer from a BED, food addiction, or use overeating to cope with stress. its sad because i know what it feels like to find solace in something unhealthy and how detrimental it is both mentally and physically
sureeee
im the stupid one
theres no better way to prove your point than by replying with a meme! good job youve definitely changed my opinion!
I don't do this with the intent to change someones mind or opinion. I do this to annoy you and make it harder for you to hate on fat people
Glad to see the transphobe agrees with the fatphobe
You're ridiculous.
Is JK Rowling a transphobic pos? Absolutely. That's not even an arguement. But liking her work doesn't automatically make something transphobic. Plenty of people are able to separate the art from the artist and its not your place to shame them for it.
Almost nothing exist without some form of a shitty past/history.
Once again I am not trying to change your mind and also trans people have said tike and again how liking her work is transphobic and have explained why. All you're doing is digging your grave further with that
I myself am a transperson.
If those people think that it is transphobic then they are free to do so, however they do not speak for the trans community as a whole. My bestfriend, a trans guy, is a massive harry potter fan. He loves the franchise and anything to with it. Does that make him transphobic? Of course not.
Almost everything has some form of a shitty origin. Disney? The creator was a masisve racist? Ford cars? The inventor was a huge anti-semitic. Etc, etc...
If you can no longer find enjoyment out of harry potter then that is completely fine. But if others do, they are not automatically transphobes.
It does make him transphobic and trans people are just as capable of being transphobic. Hope that helps.
And if you want to know why, just in case for some magical reason you don't know, its because she uses her money to fund transphobic groups specifically against transwomen and those groups try to get transphobic laws passed. If you give her money you are quite literally giving money to a transphobic group. It's the same exact premise as chick fill a
I do know what she spends her money on. You can enjoy a franchise without giving money to the creators.
He's owned those books and watched those movies long before JK Rowling's transphobia came to light. He no longer spends any money on things that will go to funding JK Rowling's transphobia. Sorry to break it to you, but people can't just suddenly forget the books and movies they grew up on because the creator is revealed to be a pos.
Since you so clearly believe that you cant seperate the creation from the creator, i hope you don't like anything Disney, after all, Walt Disney was a huge racist. Oh wait... i'm pretty sure I saw you reblog a star wars post? Seems a bit hypocritical to me.
Also, stop with your whole holier than thou mindset. Where do you get your clothes? Because most large fashion brands use child labour to make their products? If we use your logic then that must mean that you support those actions. What about your food? Do you buy meat from the grocery store? If you do then you are supporting the inhumane abuse of animals in factory farms. Have you ever ordered off Amazon? They mistreat and underpay their workers. Almost everything now-a-days has some sort of rotten underbelly. Stop acting as if you are some perfect angel who knows all and has never supported anything even remotely harmful.
Even if you yourself are trans aswell, it is not your place nor responsibility to speak for transgender people as a whole.
It's funny how you keep making long arguments that I won't read or care about. This started out with your fatphobia and now your showing your trabsphobia too. At this rate I wouldn't be surprised if you think it's totally OK to write stories that glorify pedophilia and incest
Alright then.
Thats a disgusting accusation. Im a CSA survivor. Fuck you.
If you genuinely belive that not thinking that fat people are pwoor lwittle vwictims and being able to seperate the art from the artist makes me those horrible things then you are just grasping at straws.
The fact that your just using those things as low blow insults is digraceful. Its insulting to survivors.
You aren't the good little holier than thou knight in shining armour you think you are.
I never said I was holier than thou, I caught you being fatphobic and transphobic and called you out on it
Wow look at that being even more farphobic while saying fat people don't go through anything bad, I'm so shocked/s
Do you seriously think that a small joke is equivalent to systemic oppresion?
