#bodyshamingiswrong

A Beetoota Advocate satire piece e today reads: Demise of Menulog proves there’s no such thing as ethical food delivery you fat fuck.’ And then (paraphrase) no such thing as ethical food delivery…‘anyone who thought otherwise is, frankly, a fat fuck’. And the comments to my reply are worse. Here’s the thing: Punching down on fat people isn’t funny - it’s hurting a marginalised group. There are a myriad of reasons why people are fat, and in the vast majority of cases, it has nothing to do with being a lazy ‘fat fuck’ who can’t be arsed cooking or going out to get food. Rather, it involves complex issues such as socioeconomic status, food availability (and deserts), chronic illness and disability, mental illness, iatrogenic medicine (eg many medications esp for mental illness cause weight gain), racism, and other intersecting factors. @betootaadvocate can and should be better than this. Good satire is always about punching up, not down 😖 #fat #fatacceptance #fatacceptancemovement #fatactivism #bodyshaming #bodyshamingiswrong #disabilityactivism #bodyneutrality

@metaphil @janboehm @HBBuergerschaft auch wenn ich verstehe, dass es die Adressaten hier gehörig triggert, aber können wir uns niveaumäßig von "dein Penis ist kurz" als Beleidigung distanzieren?

One thing (of many) that I cannot stand is body shaming.
When I was on that other place years ago, I called out an activist, whose values I aligned with, for body shaming a famous person – to which I was blocked for. Yes, the person they were describing was a bigoted arse, but body shaming is low.
Have just blocked two people on Bsky for body shaming a misogynist – by all means, hate the misogyny, but body shaming isn't the win you think.
