a LOT of replies to my fatphobia tweet saying "they look racist so idc"... how many times do i have to explain that it& #39;s not woke or progressive to code poorness and fatness as inherently evil?? what& #39;s not clicking???

A lot of racists look like ivanka trump or the sorority girls at ur college but yall are so brainwashed by capitalist aesthetics that you jump to defend fatshaming because you never graduated past the Disney movie belief that people you think are ugly are always bad

Let& #39;s talk about how our standards of beauty are based around the ruling class!!! Let& #39;s talk about how fatphobia ITSELF is racist!!! you don& #39;t look fucking good when you look at a fat person and immediately assume they& #39;re stupid or ignorant!!!

this statement is easily googleable but just to clarify i& #39;m referring to the way that fatphobia& #39;s origins lie in systemic racism and the demonization of the Black body. this is a fact. i recommend reading fearing the black body: the racial origins of fatphobia to go more in depth
