Fatphobia

(I wrote this on discord so it might not be well written but idgaf, also take a shot everytime i rant about fatphobia in this book because sjosjds it will be a lot)

i think what fatphobes don't understand is that by insulting people and constantly berating them you only make the problem worse. if you want someone to change you can't just yell at them and expect them to change overnight. you have to be supportive and understanding, even so, fat people don't owe you anything. they don't have to lose weight if they don't want to, if it bothers you so much just close your damn eyes and shut the hell up. don't pretend to act like you care about their health because i know you don't, all fatphobes could give less of a shit. you just think they're "ugly" and "abnormal" just because they're fat. you only care about how they look because if they aren't skinny then there's obviously something wrong with them. even if they are unhealthy, that's their decision to make and only theirs. they already get made fun of enough that doing it just because "you care about their health" won't make a difference to how bad it is. all negativity is bad, even if it is supposed to be "encouraging" (which its not). anyways it just pisses me off how people (especially EX-fat people) treat us who are on the bigger size just for being fat. cause like, we can't even exist in peace without the fear of being made fun of or berated for just being ourselves???
