Lately I’ve noticed a trend here and there to make it less acceptable to ‘shame fat people’, or to encourage ‘fat acceptance’.
I’m not much for conspiracy theories, but anyone think this might be an astroturfed campaign started by fast food corporations trying to infiltrate the online ‘social justice warrior’ movement?
I mean, who more than McDonald’s or Burger King corporation would love for obesity to be accepted as the new norm, and anyone who doesn’t have a gut the size of a cannon ball considered “anorexic”?
Back in the 70s or so, Phillip Morris and the major cigarette corporations tried to advertise cigarettes as a health or weight loss product before it was cracked down on; if they could I bet many of the major fast food giants would try to advertize their fattening foods as some diet designed for “anorexia prevention” or something, lol
So how many of these ‘fat acceptance’ peeps to you think are actually plants being paid by the McDonald’s or Burger King PR departments?
Corporations are trying to make money. I’d imagine it’s a heck of a lot cheaper to simply co-opt public sentiment, which corporations have done plenty of times in the past, than to put plants and all of that. People want X, you provide X, they give you money. That is much more likely the cause.
