We really need to convey to people that feeding a narrative makes it stronger, and certain narratives will ultimately undermine our goals and be used against us by those who want to destroy us. Ugly=bad is not a narrative we want to feed; it is a very effective tool for fascists, so the less power we give it the better

that’s exhausting, it’s like they think the shit being said would’ve been less egregious somehow if a conventionally-beautiful person said it

I reallllly need more people to engage with academic theory on how conventional desirability is weaponized both structurally & in daily life 💀 there’s a lot of great writing on how this harms fat people in particular (tbc I’m fat myself / reclaiming the term rather than using it as a pejorative)

are you the OP from that thread? cause I’m the person yammering about being a Da’Shaun Harrison fanboy over there lol I’m feeling vastly less pissy about it now that I know your perspective better, anyway—not worth holding that post against you when it’s clearly not representative of your worldview

Oh no I’m not, sorry. I meant to refer to you, the op, when I said op.

oops my bad 🫡 I got that you were addressing me when you said “OP”, I was just assuming you might have been that other person because I’d been chatting with them in another thread here right before you left this reply
