It amazes me that people can continue to turn a blind eye to what will undoubtedly be the defining problem of the 21st century. People like you continue to tell people that it is okay to be fat. You claim that weight has no bearing on a person’s health and that you cannot tell what a person eats by their weight. You seem to think that people just magically get fat. Your telling people to stay fat is like telling sick people to stay sick when there is a cure. Why do you do this?

It amazes me that people like you consider themselves entitled to spout ignorant, hurtful nonsense at other people and don’t even have the decency or courage to do so without the cloak of anonymity. People like you continue to concern troll the inboxes of others as if your opinion is wanted, needed, or in any way original. You claim that you know what you’re talking about, when in fact you clearly have done absolutely no reading on the subject. Your telling me that what I’m doing is like “telling sick people to stay sick when there is a cure” is both narrow-minded and appallingly ignorant, as well as being flat-out wrong.

Why do I do this? I do this because fat people deserve better than assholes like you feeling entitled to comment on their bodies. They deserve to see and hear at least one person telling you off. We are people. We deserve respect and dignity.

Also? If you think that fat is going to be the defining problem of the 21st century, you are clearly not fucking paying attention to the worldwide economic collapse, egregious attacks on women’s rights in the United States, increased intolerance toward LGBTQI people worldwide (rape clinics in Africa, that ringing a bell?), constant and exposed racism in America, and a thousand other things that are significantly more important than whether or not people are fat.

You should be ashamed of yourself for this short-sighted, narcissistic bullshit. This isn’t about health. This is about you being unable to deal with the fact that fat people might not hate themselves. Go to therapy, not my fucking inbox.
