I am not an advocate of violence
But, oh, there are some times when I wish I could just punch someone in the head.
Repeatedly.
Maude, give me strength.
So this site: http://fatsnotcool.com/about.html
is apparently trying to “help the poor fatties” by shaming them into non existence. You can even use the site to anonymously tell someone they are fat! Isn’t that awesome!?
I didn’t link the site up there, because I didn’t want them to get any Google points for people linking to them.
But… if you wanted to perhaps give them a visit, they have an email address and the ability to leave blog comments. I used the opportunity to tell them that Assholes Aren’t Cool.
If enough people tell them, maybe they’ll get the message.
Jerks.
O.K. This site looks mildly horrific.
I’m afraid to even go there.
Did you get any bizzare retaliatory comments?
Mildly horrific isn’t the description for it. I sent them an e-mail also. I imagine I’ll either get ignored or get trolled for it. Either way, I can ignore their crap and chalk it up to their intolerance, bigotry, and ignorance.
*sigh* I am not going to bother because really, they know they’re assholes and they’re doing this expressly to BE assholes. Basically they are desperate pathetic little twits who are so desperate for attention that even negative attention is just going to feed their little egos. Why give them what they want?
But yes, yes I have to admit that beating the living snot out of them is definitely an enjoyable daydream right now. Twits.
I prefer to assault them on Twitter, where they won’t get credit. The thing is, fat hatred can be profitable. The more that Fat Acceptance gets mainstream attention, the more backlash we’re going to see. So, there is a real market for this kind of fat hatred. People *really* want the right to be openly ignorant and hateful toward fat people. There’s really nothing to do about it and the worst thing to do is draw attention to it.
So, I’m sort of torn… do I ignore them? Or do I harass them on Twitter.
Hmmmmm…
Okay, I’m off to tweet.
Peace,
Shannon
