I don’t know if I’ve actually seen much of this ngl but if you have any examples I’m curious because this sounds interesting

always with this smug tone of “well *I’m* fat and I know better” that just comes off like they’re fishing for the approval of a majority audience who wants to have their biases justified back to them. I’m not a fan of labeling people as “pick-me”s but it really is giving “aren’t I one of the good ones?”

the video that prompted this post was from the youtuber Mika’s Rhetoric but she’s def not the worst I’ve seen, I just make a point of avoiding those channels so it’s hard to name them off the top of my head 💀 basically if you search up drama videos yapping about someone like Amberlynn Reid you should find a handful of examples

Interesting. So it’s heavier people getting angry at even heavier people?

getting angry at them or making a spectacle out of them, playing holier-than-thou, performing concern from a place of sneering pity, watching their every move for something to finger-wag at in bad faith. usually towards people heavier than themselves but also often in the same size range

That’s just so sad. There’s just some thoughts best kept to yourself and not everything needs to be said on the internet either
