      It’s objectively unhealthy. Stop trying to convince others your laziness isn’t something to look down on and ride a bike

        While exercise is definitely a good thing, diet is the main factor for keeping a healthy weight. Kurzgesagt on youtube did a good video about it recently.

        There are many lean people that eat absolute crap, and are as unhealthy or more. I don’t think we make fun of bad eating habits; we make fun of fat people because they don’t fit into certain beauty standards.

        Also, being “fat” doesn’t mean you’re not healthy. Being a bit chubby or overweight is perfectly normal, obesity is a problem.

        And I think calling people “lazy” for being fat says more about you than anything. Exercise isn’t the most important factor on weight, eating habits are. Specifically, calorie intake.

        So there’s a lot of stupid fucks on this community, huh.

        Educate yourself and go to school before saying crap.

      Obesity is addiction.

      We need to stop normalizing it.

      You’re not a bad person for being fat.

      That said obesity is one of the most selfish forms of addiction given the carbon footprint it takes to become obese.

      You are not stuck in your disease, you can escape it. Do not normalize an unhealthy lifestyle because it is easier.

            There’s nothing morally wrong with it. There’s no reason to judge someone for it. Being fat yourself doesn’t excuse being an asshole to others for something that literally doesn’t affect you at all

              What right do you have to consume more than you need especially in a time where it is readily evident that our consumption ( be it material or food ) is causing our planet to be destroyed by us.

              So the argument can actually be made … yeah choosing to be obese and stay there and advocate for it is wrong.

              Being fat doesn’t make you a bad person. Anyone who says that is an ass. However advocating for obesity being ok and normalizing it does.

              The moral (and ethical) argument against obesity is: consuming more than you need is wasteful and selfish especially in a time where our consumption is driving the climate to the brink

                That’s a shit reason what the heck xD it’s not fat people’s fault shit gets wasted my guy, that’s like blaming people who don’t garden for climate change while they’re leveling the Amazon for farm land. Stop looking for excuses to shit on fat people, or at least don’t make them so cartoonishly stupid cx
