Called you a fat piggy Anyway this is bolstering fascism And adds pressure to this thin-is-in backsliding (and I lowkey love that FOR ME ONLY though cause it speaks to my negative self talk and seeing it like affirmed irl just like scratches an itch in my mentally ill brain 😜😜) but yeah it’s dangerous but also the body positivity movement (some of it) was annoying and it was always a damn lie, saw right through that
No they’re onto something, skinny culture is often a tool of fascism because it promotes conformity and hierarchy. It also diverts your attention away from injustice—if you’re constantly hungry and anxious about your body, you don’t have the bandwidth to fight against totalitarian takeover
People also forget that fat people can have restrictive eating disorders too, and it does NOT help them get healthier. It only fucks up their mental health and gives them worse health issues down the line. Shame only makes things worse, if you want to talk about health let’s encourage sustainable healthy habits and mindsets when the context is appropriate to bring it up. And let’s not pretend that fat-hatred isn’t ubiquitous in this country despite our high obesity rates. It just doesn’t help.
