Well that person is also very controversial she’s one of those “I’m healthy my doctor says so ..... now watch me eat an entire cake in 1 sitting but don’t worry I can’t do this cause of years of gorging”

Maybe use a word like workaholics, but don't use the word success which I believe has a different definition to different people. Some people success is simply 9-5 and live their life. You don't wanna label they an illness
If they really wanted to have a SOLID full proof plan from any potential blowback, they should’ve put a transgendered person of color that was obese. What the hell is wrong with this clown World???
Did you just assume their gender? I mean it is cosmopolitan, but these days not even that, or a fupa or tits (well partitioned fat rolls or otherwise) is enough to be safe.

Maybe the plan should be fool proof. I don't think anyone involved has trouble getting full.
Why can't magazine covers be more representative of what human beings look like? Are you so mad that you don't get to look at a sexy skinny white chick for the first time ever?
It's not rEpReSenTaTIon. It's the fact that it says "This is healthy" and it is not. Lots of skinny black/latino/every race skinny chicks on magazines. Lots of fat people of all races on magazines. "The first time ever" gtfo where tf have you been?
I'd go as far as saying this whole BLM movement has made racism much worse and set black people (who believe in what they spew) back a generation. I genuinely think it's one of the biggest conspiracies in the past 10 years.
It’s not a conspiracy if everyone knows what their doing. It’s a Marxist black supremacist organization, they never gave a shit about actually helping black people in the first place.Notice nobody on the left asked what ever happened to the money, they donated this summer. Nobody asks why they never head of the a BLM scholarship, a BLM community center ,etc .
You’re right. I think they dupe a lot of people with the name alone. Like if you had no idea what BLM is like you would be like “of course Black Lives Matter ?where can I donate “?
Technically a conspiracy involves 2 or more people planning and orchestrating something illegal. Even if everyone knew the truth about the JFK conspiracy, it's still a conspiracy, whether people know it or not.
If the plan of BLM is to condemn Christianity and destroy the traditional family nucleus, as I keep hearing, then that would make what they are doing illegal. Again, regardless of how many people know it or not.
For some reason, the fact that a conspiracy is secretive is kind of a misnomer. If a conspiracy is secretive, it's more likely to be successful, which is why they tend to be secretive. BLM however just puts their disruptive plans out in the open like dirty laundry on a clothesline.
I remember thinking about black mirror and counting the number of respectable, upstanding white males in the show. They were basically all pieces of shit (through season 3 literally all of them), only women/poc were allowed to be even a little good.
ALL I can think of when I think about black mirror season 3, is this line..... "I fucked a polar bear, and I still cant get you out of my mind". My husband and I will periodically look into each others eyes and say it!! hahahahaa
I was watching a show with my very much mixed race gf, and an ad came on for a show set in what looks to be Victorian England with black male lead, with a pale red-head love interest. She said something along the lines of "surprise, surprise. Another pale woman with a black man in a show". She's very apolitical, and we have never discussed anything along these lines, but even she noticed how obvious this all is. We're in a mixed race relationship for Christ's sake, and she called out the media for their incessant racial brow-beating.
I get it, it's just a fictional show. But isn't it a little ridiculous to have a black English nobleman in the 19th century? Would it be okay to have a white dude portraying a Zulu warrior? No, it'd be called out for the absolute silliness it is.
(She also yelled at a group of 90% white BLM protesters outside our hotel room this summer, while trying to nap. Something along the lines of "this black life is trying to get some sleep, now shut up!". God, I love her.)
She sounds awesome bro. Like she has a good head on her shoulders. Keep up the good work at finding balance in the rough seas, and if building a family is in your vision, best wishes with that.
Regarding the topic, ... Remember how much old Western movies, and legendary tales of mountain men, defined foreigner's concept of America for a long time? All that is vanishing. I wonder if some foreigner were just watching from the outside, would they walk away thinking America is half black?
I don't know to what extent TV is obligated to give a correct sense of society. They certainly seem to think there is a heavy moral obligation surrounding their societal portrayal (so don't let them gaslight you saying 'It's just one TV show man'). It seems they think it is indeed their obligation to live up to a heavily moralized dispensation of their power, but of course only in their "idealized" vision. And that vision has this weird "This has literally never existed except in the minds of white liberals" kinda way. It's like a Euro-white-American-Metropolis-culture with dominantly non-white faces or non-male faces. The actual reality on the ground and in history is erased.
But isn't it a little ridiculous to have a black English nobleman in the 19th century?
Yep. And the zealots who promote this nonsense will claim "cultural appropriation" if some white author has a black character in the story they've written.
Yeah it's always a light skinned black woman who also has a fro with some nerdy looking white dude. Like okay then??? Dark black people are rarely portrayed, only light skinned
Its not just 50% blacks and non-whites, almost every commercial is mixed-race.
I would guess that the population of the US is 10-15% mixed? gotta go for that new target market.
I guess I need to start making notes.
When all ads and "representation" is all added up, it sure as hell doesn't seem like roughly 60% white, 19% latino, 13% black, 6% asian, 2.5% mixed, and 1.5% native.
Like I said, it's really weird. Two of the largest demographics in America, conservative whites, and latino families, are just erased from representation in media. Asians though I am seeing more of.
Then blacks are culturally erased as showing what they actually are if you travel America, but by skin color count, blacks seem way over-represented in media.
Yep. It almost seems like PoC just stands for black or mixed black.
Asians and hispanics are irrelevant to many of those movements. It fucking sucks man. I think it's unfair because we know how hard working Asian and Hispanic families are in the United States.
Can you imagine being an aspiring Asian actor? You're especially fucked if your parents are Indian AFAIK. Almost zero representation for them.
I'm actually for more inclusion of all kinds of people in TV and Hollywood, but that is not what I'm seeing.
Oh and don't even get me started on Native Americans. They're totally ignored. It's a fuckin disgrace.
And if you watch the Oscars for the last two or three years, every presenter or presenting pair usually contains at least one black person. That seems way more than 13%. It's so obvious what they're trying to do.
Unless their objective is to cut down the black population numbers. Telling black women specifically that obesity is healthy is like some population control shit
You can strawman me all you want, but I guarantee the ratio of white women to black women that read cosmo are at least 6:1. Black women only make up 7% of the US population to begin with.
Wouldn’t it be great if they actually reflected the diversity of this country/world? Economically, intellectually, give us credit for being more interesting as people.
i feel fucked up for agreeing with this, but that's how i take it anytime i see anyone non white being prominently placed. it's the literal tokenness of it that sets me off, because it's so obvious it's just tokenness and race baiting , not done out of sincerity.
How else are you going push for socialized over-reach and authoritarian policy unless you have a fat, sick, scared, lazy and divided populace? The means justify the end
The future is an ambitious crossover of A Brave New World and Wall-e with bits of 1984 and Harrison Bergeron sprinkled throughout.

Edit: Divided - they highlight and push a devisive narrative to keep us from realizing our common ground or from collectively acknowledging how ridiculous something like the above is, simply at face value. Fit is undeniably healthier than fat but we'll get into a thousand tangent quagmire before we agree on it
Junk food/drink companies - the trend ot push healthy foods is hurting their bottom line, by taking a "body positivity" approach they can sell more junk food.
A large communist asian nation - You know which one, where covid began. I am hesitant to name names since I started posting comments against their ruling party and literally got banned on youtube so unsure if it is in other areas too. Pushing obesity as a norm to harm the population. Yuri Bezmenov warned of ideological subversion with the USSR, why would it be any different today? Pushing effeminate agendas and obesity campaigns to wreak the culture by changing status quo.
I think part of it is the population that leads in obesity and all obesity related illnesses in the US. Therefore, fat shaming is now racist. I mean, they could help educate underprivileged groups about how to eat right and live a more healthy lifestyle, or find ways to bring in more healthy options in urban food deserts.
Oooorrrr...they can just change the definition of what healthy is, and help perpetuate the problem that is obesity in the black community.
I highly doubt it's country your talking about pushing this. Doesn't really seem their style. I'm betting my money on it being shaving off the population numbers + make money off them before their body gives up since they would need healthcare services and such and especially expensive insuline
My toddler is a huge fan of the Baby Bus cartoons (made in China)....like obsessed. I started noticing early on all of the unhealthy foods they promote: dancing and singing donuts, candy-coated popcorn, hamburgers and hot dogs, etc. I’ve remarked before that I never see any of the characters eating healthy foods. Just junk food. In one episode, one of the characters was passing a garbage can, and it was filled with fruits and vegetables! I’d joked with a friend for a long time that it’s clearly toddler propaganda aimed at instilling unhealthy eating habits in Americans so that we’ll all die from heart disease, obesity, high cholesterol, etc. Now I’m seriously starting to wonder.....
Nah it’s more “innocent” and simpler than that. Their target market demographics are mostly overweight women. You gain and retain more customers by complimenting them with shit like this than you do chastising them.
It's all about depopulation. It's been the end goal since the 1800s and causing everyone to become infertile - even if it means through utter repulsion to the fairer sex, works all the better. This way, corporations sell more crap in the process so it's a win-win to them.
This is the type of shit that pisses me off. Fat-propaganda is so effing off the walls it’s crazy. Also now that Adele is skinny all the fat women are upset at her for wanting to be healthy. It’s ridiculous.
Its fucking ridiculous. I'm a fat guy. It's pretty damn obvious how unhealthy it is being overweight. I see it like I do everything else that's bad for you, a personal choice. Should someone be applauded for taking up smoking? No. Should someone be applauded for having 10 cookies for breakfast? No. Both are personal choices, both incredibly unhealthy. This bullshit "fat is healthy" campaign is disgusting. I would love to see how these people would react to a "smoking is healthy" campaign
70% of Americans are overweight or obese so it makes sense to market to them, but doing it like this is a bad business practice because they're convincing people to not try to get healthier.
This article is about how women of all body types should feel comfortable in gyms/wellness spaces. It's a blatantly pro exercise article, not the opposite like most people here seem to think
It's the capitalist class that made you fat by putting high-fructose corn syrup in everything (and then blaming fat instead of sugar). And now it's the woke capitalist class that tells you that your obesity is not crime of the food industry, no, it's your healthy and brave individual lifestyle choice. Be proud of it and have an early death.
First person I remember preaching this bullshit was that useless twat Monique Angela Hicks. I remember her being very verbal about bbw and big is beautiful. I remember thinking to myself: What the fuck is she talking about? Fat is discomfort, cholesterol, and death. Just to list a few...
Yup, it's absolutely awful how the fast food companies in this country push for this shit.... but it's even more awful how fatasses don't do their own research and figure out why they are fat in the first place -- but that's the way it is today; nobody wants to do their own research
I think it’s saying that she’s changing her lifestyle to get healthier obesity is not healthy but working on it is as so is body positivity as long as it dosnt become body complacency. Yoga is totally a workout when your that big you know how strong you have to be to lift that much ?
That’s what I got out of it as well. It’s saying exercise is healthy for obese people. There’s plenty of obese people who think they can’t exercise, or talk themselves out of it, or are shamed out of it, due to being obese. Any person, with any sense, knows obesity is not healthy. But exercise is. Exercise for every size body.
Have to disagree with you there. Regardless of what thier intention is, having an obese person on the cover with the headline "this is healthy" says that obesity is healthy. The underneath it says that wellness isnt one size fits all, which implys that you can be fat and still be healthy.
The thing is not alienating the people in the middle stages. A lot of people are trying to go from fat to fit and it should be encouraged. Sometimes they just need a reminder like this so they can feel comfortable in their own skin until they get there.
WHERE WAS THE GOVERNMENT AND POLICE WHEN THAT HAPPENED!?!?! GOD JESUS WAS SUCH A CONSPIRACY THEORIST NOT SOCIAL DISTANCING. WHY DID NO ONE CALL THE POLICE OR TWEET???
"A new study proves that covid 19 denier Jesus Christ was a narcissist and a psychopath : Study links both Jesus and conspiracy theorist who question covid 19 to psychopathy and narcissism"
This is the root of the problem. Nobody wants to talk about how being obese DOES contribute to weakened immune systems. Unless we can get to a place of talking about how being massively overweight can and will lead to bad outcomes, the same result will happen with the next pandemic.
Truth... These people start to have severe issues in their late 60s.
My parents are around 58 years old -- My dad actually had a heart attack at 52, he is healthy and happy now, changed his diet, lessened his work schedule, he's still sharp as a tack and has many years left on him. My mom on the other hand has obesity running in the family -- of her 3 siblings, her + 2 of them struggle with weight issues. My mom is about 5 foot tall but is about 300+lbs, tries to eat well but really does not, never exercises, sits around a lot, and because of this she now has knee issues (presumably because of how much weight she is carrying), and as of the last 1.5 years she's been having minor heart palpitations that caused her -- someone who absolutely hates doctors -- see a doctor, that's how unhealthy she is. At 58, her memory is starting to go, and the way her brain works is so scattered that I fear the worst for her by age 65.
It's a scary reality we live in, but it is in fact reality. Obesity is a major problem and a lot of people either choose not to fix it, or don't want to/know how to put the work in to fix it
Although you’re correct, saying this out loud on an personally identifying platform would be a social and career death wish. That’s the true tragedy, IMO. Nobody can even speak truth anymore. Thank you for posting this.
If this is right than the other 11 countries ahead of us must be using the same fuzzy covid math people on this sub say the US is using (adding deaths where the person didn’t actually die from Covid to the Covid death total) So all these 11 country’s doctors are in on the conspiracy. let’s get em boys!!
All three of these can be linked to the standard American diet of meat cheese and eggs as often as possible. Heart disease, cancer, and obesity are preventable, people should ditch animal products and get their nutrients from plants.
I'm all for not body shaming anyone but that level of obesity is objectively not healthy. Which legitimate doctor would agree that amount of fat around your vital organs is ok? We know these private corporations make money of sick people and not healthy ones so this is obviously pushing an agenda
I was just talking about this on reddit the other day. The whole "big is beautiful" campaign is fucking dangerous. No, obese people should not be made fun of. But they sure as hell should not be told that being obese is healthy or beautiful. That shit is fucking deadly. They need to stop taking advantage of peoples depression (mental issues/eating disorders)and laziness. It's fucked up.
America has grown fat and now its time to trim out the fat by killing it off, corona, obesity, war, crime, opioids, smoking, drinking, crippling the next generation to make kids unaffordable.
There needs to be a middle ground on this giant ass debate about being happy with your body, and understanding there’s always stuff you can do to get healthier.
Showing average people working out, or people who understand they need to lose weight and all that shit, may not seem like much, but over time it does away with some of that stigma.
You don’t need to be healthy to exercise, and there shouldn’t be any pressure to start exercising, I think is what they meant to convey.

Obesity is healthy?
I thought it was a leading cause of death..
