Sometimes the jokes just write themselves.

    It circles back to that fat people have the autonomy to change their shortcomings.
    But the thought about blind people getting bullied into gaining vision your argumentation put in my head is pretty entertaining.

      So we should bully everyone about anything they have autonomy over? I should bully people for not filtering their water because it’s unhealthy? I should bully people for having a car because it’s bad for the environment?

      I mean it’s not discrimination but it’s definitely just a dick thing to do. You mentioned haircuts earlier - if someone gets a haircut they like you shouldn’t make fun of them for it. They chose to get the haircut. They know how it looks. They know what people think of that style of haircut. Chosing to laugh at them for that isn’t doing anything and is just rude.

      If you disagree with that I don’t think I have anything else to say. We just have completely different views.

        Well it’s you who basically comes back to repeat the same talking points over and over. And I was saying it’s ok to make fun of fat people that you kinda escalated into bullying. You’re strawmanning and all your arguments are just whataboutism. I should’ve shot that down earlier but you seem very polite.
