It’s complicated! Ha. Yeah I mean there’s no value in harassing an individual at all about their fat pride, when they are not responsible for but most likely victims of society… a society that positions cheap and unhealthy food options at every corner.
Be mad at McDonald’s. Be mad at Family Dollar. Be mad at bullies. And be made about fat pride too, that we as people have created the conditions that have been so toxic to some people that almost by necessity they inoculate themselves from horrible attitudes that have never helped them in the slightest.
- camillomiller 4y agoVery good points. But frankly, this is Capitalism self-preservation in action. Convincing people of being proud of whoever they are is easier than fixing a systemic issue created by greedy corporations. It’s like prioritizing personal responsibility as a sustainability policy. It’s easier to buy into an ecological lifestyle (put down that plastic straw!) than fixing the systemic underlying issues through which big corporations generate profits.
