  btw a simple google search brings multiple forums media discussions and books of similar nature...the citation wasn't all that necessary to believe my statement was factual
context: The problem is that I've never heard someone say, "to prefer a non-obese lifestyle is to be racist." I've never even read this opinion. So, since this is a "change my view," I'll leave you with this: your proposition is not a thing. Perhaps you found a troll post on Twitter, to which you've attributed too much significance. But people that believe obesity is both unattractive and bad for the cardiovascular system are simply not necessarily racist. >
  
  There have been several videos on TikTok and several tweets on Twitter stating that the hatred of fat people is rooted in racism towards Black people implying that somehow Black people are these inherently large obese otherworldly beings. >
  
  I have never heard of this anywhere ever at all. Also yes it's a nonsensical claim so I'm not gonna try and change your view on it. You just need to know that that's not a thing. >

  There is no established premise that people believe that fatphobia is rooted in racism. >
  
  You're just pointing the obvious. >
  
  I'm kinda confused here. You're saying that disliking obesity isn't the same thing as being racist? >
  
  I think what OP is saying is that there's a counter current to the societal pressure to remain fit and trim wherein the proponents of the former allege that the latter is inherently racist because black women cultivate large buttocks to sate the dexual desires of black men. I told OP that this their assertion was imaginary, i.e., no one is actually suggesting that the desire to remain svelte is racist. >
  
  Actually they are saying if you're not black and have a fat ass you're racist...
  Even the media is espousing that sentiment.
  It's cultural appropriation... >

  Gonna need a citation there, bub. >
  
  Wow, you actually delivered. Alright, I'll bite. I'll give this a read and get back with you.
