  • One of my lowest points (from the point of view of being a good person) was that I subscribed to that sub when it first started. Back then it was making fun of the people who yelled at doctors for telling them that obesity leads to comorbidities and that they should consider weight loss.

    The sub took a quick turn for the worse, and started being downright mean and horrible. I unsubscribed but am still embarrassed about it. Like of course it was going to go that direction. When the anti-sjw shit came in that made me do a quick 180 and realize some of my internal biases. I remember getting attacked on the old cth sub for getting mad at a meme with a very obese person on a motor scooter at a trump rally, and being unable to articulate the problems with that in a way that didn’t come come across as sjw concern trolling, but my experience with FPH saw the red flag immediately when seeing that image used in that way

    I think fat acceptance is different than having solidarity and recognizing your own biases.
