reread my comment—I said “does not *innately* materially benefit anyone else”, emphasis on “innately” every other action listed here is tangibly in service of supporting other people. “get jacked” is out of place, there’s a difference between saying that vs saying “if you’re able-bodied, offer to assist neighbors with physical tasks”

i fear many of my fellow leftists have not yet beaten the gym culture brainworms & still view physical fitness as a moral imperative, or at least as an inherently virtuous trait / behavior

Im not interested in arguing/being right. There’s a character limit on these posts, making it difficult to have perfect prose, I apologize to anyone who felt left out. However, I think people should be more interested in making the world around them better than making words perfectly encapsulate the spirit of action.

if you’re not interested in arguing then you don’t have to reply. but it’s not an issue of “feeling left out”, my problem is with elevating physical fitness to the status of a morally virtuous pursuit, because that’s a core tenet of what’s broadly known as “body fascism”. I’m not attempting to play “gotcha”, I’m raising a genuine ideological concern that gets overlooked too often by otherwise well-meaning & forward-thinking people

(also re: character limit, rather than articulating a perfect example of charitable ways to use physical strength, the solution would’ve been to just leave that last example out of the list)
