There's a difference between shaming someone and offering to help them out of the situation that they've gotten themselves into.
But our society isn’t doing that.

We are building them up as “normal”.

That isn’t offering help. That is supporting the shameful behavior.

Sounds like Megan is making the transition from face to heel to get some attention.

Simply making an obese person or an alcoholic or whatever more depressed about their condition doesn't help them. Especially when people get off on shaming them.


This

There is a HUGE difference between being an a-hole going out of your way to make people feel like shite vs actively encouraging and helping them lead a healthy lifestyle.

precisely. we keep trying to make these fat fricks feel like their condition is acceptable, when it shouldn't be. They should be shamed and made to feel bad for letting themselves get fat.

I've lost 85 lbs in the past 16 months after hearing from multiple people about them not recognizing me at first. That was all the shame I needed. It works.

Fat people should be ashamed, especially considering what we now know about obesity and health. The problem is that we're now telling people that there's nothing wrong with being a land whale. And that they should be comfortable in their ever-increasing skin.

It's like a HC of a football team, you can't treat each player the same. Different people respond to different things.

For some people "shaming" them could actually hurt them. Make them feel worse about themselves so they continue to do what they are trying to avoid doing.

Even the language used, e.g. "shaming". If I point out someone's weight to them, it's because I care about it becoming a health issue. If I don't give a damn about them, I wouldn't bother. Fat shaming is more concern than anything else.

WHERE THE frick ARE YOU COMING UP WITH THIS shite?
the founding of this country was based on the desire for liberty

that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights,
that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. That

at no point nor at any time did the founders address "being judged"

Living how you wish? Yes

Whether someone wants to judge you is their decision. As long as they can't force their lifestyle upon you then you're living the American Dream.
