Episode 32 - When Is It Ok to Fat Shame?
Nancy Pelosi recently fat-shamed Trump. Trump is a horror show of a human being, but one thing about him that isn't bad? His weight. Literally there are hundreds of ways to take down Trump and him being fat is not one of his personal failures. But...is it ever ok to fat shame? What if you do it nicely because you're concerned about loved-ones health? What if someone thin shamed you? What if the fat person really is a massive bellend? We discuss this topic in today's episode. Let's do it!

IN THIS EPISODE YOU’LL HEAR:
Is it okay to fat shame, someone? Definitely, no.
In this episode, I talk about how people fat-shamed Trump and what is Nancy Pelosi's comment about him.
The word obese has been modeled with a BMI scale but it really means "to eat to be gotten fat".
False information: Having a high BMI means that you're a great risk of COVID19.
Fat shaming is damaging and the only way to help fat people is to unlearn fatphobia.
