Wait, they mean the Gravy Seals? The Fattack Squad? The PlaqueToon? The Blood-clot-hounds? The Infantiletry? The Dive Bummers? The Shillitary? The Krispy Kreme Kops? The Out-of-Breathalyzers?

body shaming those you dislike still hits those you like.

[-] Fawkes@lemmy.zip 57 points 1 month ago

This may be an unpopular opinion, but I don't think we should be telling people it's "Okay" to be morbidly obese. It isn't okay. It's extremely dangerous, and a massive resource drain. I don't see a problem with openly mocking and insulting people who have tattooed swastikas on their foreheads, nor do I see a problem with openly mocking and insulting people who weight a full x3 - x4 what their healthy weight is.

Obviously swastikas and obesity are not the same thing. But the point is, I don't think it's a universal taboo to mock people's appearances.

Body positivity should be "It's okay if you're not a super model, there are many body shapes and sizes." Not "It's okay to eat nothing but fast food and twinkies. Your doctor is fat-phobic if they tell you to lose weight."

[-] FudgyMcTubbs@lemmy.world 29 points 1 month ago

You're not wrong. Id add tho that there's a mental health component to obesity that I think makes it more akin to substance abuse than forehead tattoos. But we dont tell people that its OK that they're raging alcoholics, generally, and conversely, maybe interventions would help the morbidly obese, but we don't do them.

So I don't disagree with you, but i dont think making fun of fat people is cool, which is what body shaming really is when youre name calling the Gravy Seals.

[-] Fawkes@lemmy.zip 15 points 1 month ago

I actually fully agree with you, and the point about the alcoholics is quite pertinent. We don't tell alcoholics they don't need to change, and we also mock them for being self destructive.

I also fully agree that mocking does not lead to change, encouragement and support does. However, LACK of mocking leads to normalization. I think support and condemnation are 2 sides of the same coin. We should be supporting those who need it, and condemning those who arrogantly refuse.

And I may be conflating the 2, but I am quite confident that most of these obese ICE racists have no desire to better themselves.

i never affirmed anything nor was i talking body positivity. this is just about calling people out for their body. that is shitty behaviour for sure. none of us knows the life of other people, nor do we know their medical conditions and socio-economic situations. stop blaming them for stuff you don't know about. even if you were right about all of that for any given case and wished for them to be healthier: blame does not motivate people.

[-] NewNewAugustEast@lemmy.zip 10 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

We do know the life of these other people, some of the shittiest people of them all or they wouldn't be willing to do this job.

Sorry, they deserve every possible shame they can get.

Edit. They drop the ice, I will drop the berg.

Nobody said anything about it being okay, just don't use it as an insult/cudgel.

There are exceptions to every rule. In this case, this is a huge exception.

[-] deacon@lemmy.world 18 points 1 month ago

Likely too much nuance to matter, but in this case, the shame is relative to a fitness expectation for a certain kind of work, not relative to the expectations of wider society.

All the fat people I know don’t consider themselves to be cop material, because they aren’t unbelievably stupid like these icebergs.

[-] forestbeasts@pawb.social 28 points 1 month ago

A) Fuck ICE.

B) Let's mock them for being evil, not for being fat. There's actual reasons to hate them, going "oh haha look how fat they are" just hurts regular fat people.

[-] Psythik@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

To be fair, regular fat people should be shamed as well. There is an obesity epidemic, and we need to stop accepting it as normal. I'm no telephone pole of a human being myself, but I'd definitely be a lot heavier than I already am if no one ever called me out on my weight. Every fat person needs to be called out. It's a good motivator to be healthier.

[-] Tenderizer@aussie.zone 9 points 1 month ago

Fatshaming is almost never done out of a genuine concern for the person's health, and it's debatable how effective it is at getting people to lose weight. Especially because of how confusing the process is.
