The incipient threat of Fat culture and FPH's cultural significance I appreciate the time and attention you may have given to my commentary on the ecological destruction and societal damage Fats are causing. Here I want to discuss the cultural impact of Fats and FPH's cultural significance. In their struggle (I love the irony of calling it a movement) for body diversity and fat acceptance, Fats are expanding their cultural presence. This has spread inferior and distasteful media designed to pander to Fats and their need to be coddled. I don't think I need to convince anyone here how unpleasant it is to see Fat bodies on screen so I will try to avoid dwelling on it. Instead I want to focus on the negative impact Fats are having on contemporary culture as broken down by the categories of television, video games, comic books, performing and visual arts. After that I want to talk about what we do here and how FPH is contributing to global culture.  Television Here are some of the television shows that exist right now on large cable networks with budget, equipment, staff etc. My Big Fat Fabulous Life, My 600-Lb Life, Curvy Brides, Big Women: Big Love, and then dozens of shows that amount to baking/food porn. These shows are final products of months of decision making committees, planning, filming, editing. Tune into TLC or follow this link if you too would like to visit the zoo to laugh at these obese animals. Shows like this are brought into existence because there is an audience to watch them. Fatties may not be able to do much (in fact most can hardly do anything) but they are exceptionally good at watching television. This leads to two possible conclusions, either these shows are being hate-watched by thousands of Shitlords or there are mobs of Fatties building false self-esteem by watching someone even fatter than they are and thinking “Wow, she really is Fat. Thank god I haven’t let myself get that bad”. I know which of these seems most likely. The U.S. and the U.K. are pumping this television into the world creating a cultural footprint sullied by Fats. It is not surprising that Americans are stereotyped by these Fats. This is what we are showing to the world. Video Games The heavy boots of Fat authoritarians leave little room for creative expression and demands society caters to their need for coddling. They call this “body diversity” comparing their lazy desire to remain fat with racial discrimination. I would instead call it an intrusion by intersectional regressives into the creative process. Video game criticism is usually the domain of third-wave feminism but that does not exclude the Obesity acceptance movement. This fattening of video game characters made its way onto Forbes, HuffingtonPost, CNN Money, Vice, Buzzfeed, MTV, People websites. The article imposes ‘average’ American body dimensions on these active fictitious martial artists, gymnasts, and ninjas. The creators’ vision be damned, the character stories be damned, we demand body diversity. Creating video games is too difficult for actually fatties to get into the industry so instead they will whine, complain, and demand changes in other people’s video games.  Fatties will complain for hours about Bayonetta without respecting the vision of the woman who created her, Mari Shimazaki. We don't need realistic standards in our fantasy, we need creative freedom. Comic Books Like video games, comic books are consistently attacked for unrealistic depiction of characters. If there is one thing important to creating compelling fiction, it is adhering strictly to the rules of reality. Compared to video games, comics have a much lower barrier to entry allowing us to see the Fats idea of a good comic book. Faith published by Valiant Comics is our new fat superhero. Faith’s comic is perfect if you want to see Ms. Tumblr, blog on her macbook, be happy, and not be ashamed of her plus-size body (literally what the article says). The article fails to explain Faiths powers instead discussing how she saves a fit, blonde, conventionally attractive man and the two lose their virginity to one another. Surely this is the kind of thing that makes us read comics. Compared to conventional comic book fantasies of justice, strength, morality and overcoming adversity we can instead fantasize about being happy, liking our body, and having a hot boyfriend. Can’t wait to see Faith being turned into a summer blockbuster. Visual and Performance Art Lastly, Fats narcissistic tendency of self-worship has spoiled our cultural landscape by spreading shit body positive art. Despite the subjective nature of taste, I think that popular feelings of revulsion allow us to reliably classify fat art as bad art. If you’re feeling brave look at the fat art tag on Tumblr or the fat positive art whatever on Pinterest. Can’t wait to see the art history classes of the future teach lessons about the piece scantily clad fat black woman with pink neon hair, tattoos and nose rings, by the legendary TomsaCoolCat. It was very much the Girl with the Pearl Earring of its day. These cows are so desperate to feel pretty that through sheer force of quantity they will try to shift societal standards of beauty. They will fill Youtube with fat girls dancing and Tumblr with fat photography. Yoga, belly dancing, slam poetry, all need to be filled with fat. By worshipping Rubens fetish art of chunky aristocracy, they have convinced themselves that if there are enough drawings of obesity then fat will become beautiful.  FPH's Cultural Significance Life imitates art and art imitates life. Some of the things discussed here are reflective of how society as a whole has grown fatter. Some of it is normalizing and glorifying obesity leading to fatter people. Whether or not we like it, civilizations are measured by their cultural impact. How impressive is it that South Korea has the most watched YouTube video? Or that Germany has created the global standard in classical composers in Bach, Beethoven, Strauss? And what about contemporary Fat culture? How will we be measured? This may fade into irrelevancy and insignificance. But if not our contemporary society will be judged by it. Let us hope that fat culture is not how we are remembered. For us, it won't be. We are that persistent community that continued hating fat people after being no platformed. We are the community that would never be silenced. We are the active demonstration of an unspoken hatred. We Hate Fat People. FPH is the counterweight against the fat acceptance movement. Here we stand against the prevailing trend of obesity and those damnable activists campaigning for even more fat acceptance. It is not enough to accept those who are 200 lbs, or those who are 300 lbs, or those who are 400 lbs. Always more. Like their appetite there doesn't seem to be an upper limit on how fat society can get. We need to shame, mock, laugh, and do everything in our power to spread fat hatred. Stand strong all of you, and merry hating.
