Hey white people. Fat is not an ethnicity. You are an oppressed group who deserves so much better but fat is a body type anyone can have or develop. White fat people have no right to speak over black people and the trend has been common for decades even tho fat is not the new black, nor disability, nor transness when there are black peoples, native peoples, brown and asian peoples you're straight up the fuck ignoring.
This is a blanket post because I am talking about fat white people, a beautiful group irregardless who taught me alot about self love and autonomy but that is why I am reminding you what I reminded my dear friends growing up.
You are a real minority but you are white first. And it shows in your values from how you came up. It shows in critical lack of class solidarity. It shows in the privilege to not have to unlearn baseline insecurity, harassment behaviors, racism and misogyny.
This is no chastisement, just a reminder. If people like you taught me things, its my turn. The hillbillies I grew up with taught me that they were white first and fought for and with me because of that truth of privilege.
This is the class expectation I expect from black people and white people who follow me. One side is handling these expectations better and it hurts all of our growth.
