Maher: “Have You Ever Seen A Fat 90-yr-old?”
Bill Maher pulled no punches in calling out the overweight & their apologists who now not only push “fat acceptance” but have “blood on their hands” for our latest “Orwellian … fat celebration movement.”
As Fox News noted, Maher on his HBO “Real Time” show bluntly called the so-called ‘body positivity’ movement a “disturbing trend” that “enables addicts” and all the unhealthy harm it brings them. He “urged Americans to stop spinning obesity as a positive and lose some weight.” According to Maher, “we’ve gone from fat acceptance to fat celebration … [and] … rewriting science to fit ideology to just fit what you want reality to be … That’s new … To view letting yourself go as a point of pride? We used to at least try and be fit and healthy and society praised those who succeeded … Now the term ‘body positivity’ is used to mean, ‘I’m perfect the way I am because I’m me’ … It’s Orwellian how often positivity is used to describe what’s not healthy!”
Well, not sure Maher’s wake-up call deals with a John Kerry-level “existential threat” to man or woman or lgbtq kind threat. But, all he wanted to know is: “Have you ever seen a fat 90-year-old?” The unchallenged “healthy at any weight idea,” he concluded is “scary.”
