dismissing millions of people as lazy based solely on their physical appearance is extremely unempathetic

and how do you know when you see a random fat person if it’s from an ED or a health condition. like do you automatically judge them and the retroactively go Oh actually it’s fine they’re fat bc i personally can justify it

also why the fuck do people even CARE if other people are fat 😭 like genuinely how does it affect your life enough that you have to insult them

sure i can because lowkey you are lol maybe those things are realistic and doable for you but immediately 1. you have to have education on this to make educated decisions duh 2. not everyone lives somewhere walkable 3. some people will gain weight if they don’t exercise not just based on diet 4. crap is more accessible

#1 is also kinda a prime example of this. They’re poor and they make good food choices, and they have time to walk. Not everyone has time or a place to go walking. Most Americans work so hard in a shitty job all they wanna go home and do is sleep. Some Americans live in food deserts, and their only grocery store is a Dollar Tree. Some Americans simply just don’t have the education about being fat and the health consequences that come with that.

what i could’ve said is lack of critical thinking so ignorance is the nice explanation

oh yeah the detriments to health are without question i just think people dismiss obesity as an epidemic tbh just cuz of fatphobia when it should be considered a national health concern

bc they make it everyone else’s problem like im sorry but if you’re fat and it’s from a disease then you DO have an ED how is that any less harmful than promoting overly skinny people as an ideal?

Respectfully you’re dramatizing all this to make yourself seem correct

just living as a fat person isn’t promoting anything lmao if you’d said you dislike people saying being fat is healthy that’d be one thing but that’s not what you said

Like yes, being fat, bad. No, not all fat people want you to become fat too and no, they aren’t all happy in their weight

you didn’t answer my question. how do you tell a fat person with a disease from a fat person that’s just (in your own words) lazy?

don’t give me the “i can’t walk im too tired” bs. you can walk for literally just THIRTY minutes a day and do wonders. i have three jobs and i find the time. if you wanna go home and watch tv, then fine. good for you. but don’t sit there and say oh i can’t walk bc you CAN. you don’t have to walk in a darkened alley. walk in the daytime or with a buddy, or even on a !!! treadmill. planet fitness is cheap. i choose to walk to work in the morning and take a bus back home at night.

You’re young. Maybe your jobs aren’t super physically demanding. Maybe they are. You’re obviously in shape, and in a good mental place, so it’s easy for you. Me personally, I’m young and very in shape, but after a 12 hour shift, my ass is not going anywhere but the bed. Walking to work is also an ability most people do not have. As well as the bus. No where has busses in my state. Not a single town has a functioning bus system. You can’t walk to work where I’m from because everything is too far.

30 minutes a day is really not enough to change someone’s weight dramatically, I fear. Maybe their cardiovascular health yes but not weight

girl be so serious. do you want fat people to sit in a dark windowless room until they get skinny or what? fat people existing aren’t “promoting” anything.
