True Left

Keep fat-shaming in order to accentuate our divergence from False Leftism!

The University of Illinois Chicago’s school of public health published an article by a dietitian claiming the medical term is “racist” and should be replaced with the wordy term “people with larger bodies.”

How about "people with larger carbon footprints because of their larger bodies"?

Author Amanda Montgomery, RN, argued that race scientists used “fatness and differing body characteristics” to classify black people as “less civilized” and “as a way to justify slavery, racism and classism, and control women,” according to her health brief, entitled “Addressing weight stigma and fatphobia in public health.”

In reality, of course:



Fat is a cold winter adaptation, you False Leftist idiot:

(Note that Montgomery herself is "white". She is stereotyping "blacks" as fat, but merely trying to claim that this is not a negative thing.)

Montgomery also contends that losing weight “has detrimental effects on our physiology” and many people can’t become thinner because of “uncontrollable genetic or environmental factors.”

But they can voluntarily refrain from reproducing. Imagine how much better the world would be if the next generation were populated solely by the offspring of people in the green areas!

Obesity is defined by the World Health Organization as having a body mass index over 30. The organization says the condition is “preventable” by eating healthy food and engaging in regular exercise.

A person’s BMI is calculated by dividing their body weight in kilograms by their height in meters squared. The medical community considers a “healthy” BMI to be between 20 and 25.

Montgomery argues that the BMI is a flawed measurement that is “not representative of the entire human population,” because it does not consider health behaviors or body composition.

This is true. Non-ectomorphs can become low-BMI via dieting. They are still not ectomorphs. Therefore ectomorph supremacism makes more sense than low-BMI supremacism.
