The article in question
Evidence of discrimination against fat people is widespread. In Sweden and Mexico, where including a photograph with a cv is common, researchers manipulated images to make identical fictitious job applicants seem fatter or obese. They found that they were significantly less likely to be offered interviews. Petter Lundborg of Lund University and John Cawley of Cornell University have compared the wages of thin and fat women, adjusted for education, experience and other factors, in Europe and America respectively, and found that women with obese bmis earn around 10% less than their peers.
"Ozempic has won, body positivity has lost. And I want no part of it," lamented Rachel Pick, a writer, in the Guardian.
Holy fattie

All this is to say I realized some time ago that I would never, ever be thin: I am simply not built that way. This realization, plus everything we already know about the pitfalls of diet culture, had made any attempt to lose weight seem both futile and like a good way to make me hate myself. So until last year, I had never even tried. My weight crept up, and up, and up. Finally, after a physical in late 2021, my blood sugar came up right on the border of the prediabetic range. It was clear: I had been playing with house money up to this point, but now, at 34, youth was no longer on my side.

I just think it's really funny that we spent 10 years pretending that being a tub of lard was attractive and then they release a pill that makes you less of a fat frick and then 6 months later every "body positivity" influencer is taking it.

I don't even think that is the case, their health probably just caught up to them tbh and their trying to correct course really fast

I'm sure that it's just a coincidence that it caught up to them the Exact year that the "stop being fat" pill came out.

Well now they have easy access to it?
My point was not that they don't believe "fat is beautiful", but that they are taking it for health reason and not beauty reason, and didn't have willpower to do it without it.

They really think people hate fatties out of some learned social bias instead of flabby blobs being gross to most humans.

You can clock an ozempic user just like you can clock anyone else playing pretend. This is a nonissue

it's mostly just the rapid weight loss. after losing 20 lbs in half a year your skin will be too lose, but if you stay skinny for another year, your skin will adapt.

Idk I have some women in the office on it. If they were rational people with self control they wouldn't have needed ozempic. They are using it so they don't have to practice any self control. They hit their target weight, eat bad, and cycle back on ozempic for a bit. But every time they do it they lose more muscle and that's what you are clocking, not the baggy skin. But also it ages them. They look 10 years older from it

Is Ozempic making people skinny or just not fat? There's a big difference

incredible cope
i was around when this was the "stylish" body shape and i remember people thinking of fats as much ickier than they do now
well, it's still harder to achieve than obesity. how hard is it to consume an extra 1000 calories of goyslop every day?

I can't wait for the ozempic class action. I'll be so grateful to have maintained a healthy body properly instead of cheating with PEDs and having my organs melt or whatever the frick ozempic is going to wind up doing to gluttonous slobs

I don't care about how hard it was for someone to not be fat, I just don't want to see any fatties.
In some countries (e.g. brazil, china) the patent for semaglutide will already expire in two years.
Then it will be easy and cheap to not be fat, at which point there's really no reason why fatness shouldn't be taxed.

A high protein diet makes losing weight so easy. I've never understood these people.

Fitness is where the hot comes from, not just being thin. You dont have to be a musclemaxxer but if you exercise daily youll eventually see what i mean. My wife used to diet, but now she hits the treadmill too, and the results speak. Ozempic just enabled slobs to look less bad, not necessarily "look good"
