The near elimination of fat shaming has contributed to the obesity epidemic as much as anything.

In what sense and how are you going to proceed to "fat shame" someone?

Warning: keep your closeted Marxist policies in check when you answer. Response must fully acknowledge and respect freedom of association, freedom of movement, and freedom of speech. Just pretend we are all free and you don't believe in slavery...for a brief moment.

The poor woman in the video probably looked like Halle Berry prior to Trump winning the election.

Now she can't walk down the street with MAGA hat wearing assailants jumping out and sticking cheese burgers in her mouth and pouring Mt. Dew on her.

I have noticed a large number of black women are obese...they just need to educate themselves on eating healthy and then do it.
My thing is this. In 2008, united states suffered a major economic crash. This crash resulted in millions not being able to part take in capitalism wealth building which supposed to guarantee economic protection and safety upon retirement. That crashed washed away peoples mindset. Out if the blue, you have these angry white nationalist, feminist, conscious pro blacks, mgtow social justice activist and sorts blaming one another for the ills of our society.

I can say that economic challanged that blacks face in the past ten years were not easy. I know blaming white supremacy is an easy scapegoat to recieve money from supporters, and equity from scared white illiberals. But the black American community especially the black women needs to take accountability for all the college debt, and for why they are overweight and obese. And should stop blaming white supremacy.

Fair enough. It doesn't violate natural law.

So does this work?

It does because it results in a brawl which means calories expended. It may well be the most aerobic exercise done that year.
