Doesn't bother me at all

Stuff like that does very little, if anything, to help people lose weight.

People will not make meaningful change until THEY are ready to make that change.

Seems like censorship to me. And FWIW, she is an annoying count I agree.

Yeah, I call bullshite. If they allow "Hitler is awesome" videos, "all the infidels must die and most of the shite they post on WorldStar, there's no way they're going to ban a fat shamer.


I think there might be an auto boot if you get enough complaints logged.

She will probably be able to appeal it.

That said, I agree that she is annoying (couldn't even finish the video) and especially agree with reginaphilange that she is desperately trying to ape Jenna Marbles.

As a borderline obese fellow, I actually appreciate this. I recently made the decision to make my life better, and it's for the exact reasons she said. It took a friend telling me that I was the same person inside that I've always been, but a slouch on the outside to change me.

Every overweight person needs to hear this again and again.

Never heard of the story or the girl til now, but kicked off of youtube seems a bit harsh.

She basically did a comedy routine with fairly standard jokes you'd hear from any number of comedians that we wouldn't bat an eye for saying.

If you listen to what she is actually saying, her comments are simply directed at the 35% (according to Arbour) of people who would fall into a category of discretionary obesity. Basically, these are the people who have no identifiable "disease", but are killing themselves through poor dietary, health and nutritional habits.

It is weird to me that we can have "smoker-shaming" commercials, but not talk about how being overweight can also cause a shiteton of health problems.




IMO, the worst is that even the media will skinny shame people. I don't see anyone getting called out on that.
