I think there are a number of fat people online who are like, that's an instant block. And so the challenge is to not just flame those people. I really have no interest in making people choose anything differently individually. Like if somebody wants to lose 20 pounds by Christmas, it just isn't what I want to spend my time on trying to talk them out of that. The thing that matters most to me is that they are cognizant of how they are treating fat people and that they are not just defaulting to, I don't mean to hurt anyone.
