i found an interesting viewpoint on obesity

this is from a post on another subreddit, however this sub does not allow images so i will type it out here.

“i swear to god if i see another person telling me that if you think obesity is bad then you’re a fat shamer. no, obesity is a real problem that causes a lot of health issues and diseases. and just because i don’t like obesity doesn’t mean i don’t like obese people. it’s like, i hate cancer. but i don’t hate people with cancer or shame people for having cancer.”

i think that this is a very interesting viewpoint because it targets the problem, not the person. that’s the viewpoint i think a lot of people tend to miss and as such, make fun of people for being obese. it does nothing but make people feel bad, instead you should ask the person if they’d like help or advice but be respectful and kind about it.
