r/fatpeoplehate

They were so toxic that the site got noticeably better within 24 hours of them being banned.

They all migrated to Voat. Later, people from r/The_Donald also tried to join voat, but the fat hate people were too toxic even for them!

Yeah, they were awful, awful people.

I too have been struggling with my weight for most of my life (the worst was 135 kilos at 189cm height, usually sitting around 95-100). I have been occasionally made fun of as a kid for it too, so I’m happy treating fat people like shit isn’t that acceptable any more.

However, I actually feel society has gone too far in accepting it, being overweight is very unhealthy and at a certain point even a burden on everyone around you and the healthcare system. It should not be normalized like this.

Fat people don’t deserve to be ostracized, but they sure as shit don’t need to hear that they are healthy and okay to remain as they are, because it’s a blatant and dangerous lie. For the vast majority of overweight people it is a symptom of their poor lifestyle and not an actual medical condition.

It is? This sounds more like a moral judgment based on nothing but perception and the way fat people os portray in media and exactly wat the fat acceptance movement try to fight against.

Hi, fat guy here. I can't speak for others and I certainly don't know statistically whether or not I represent any kind of majority, but I do know that for me my excessive weight is entirely the result of poor lifestyle decisions.
