...because it's a worldwide cross-institution 'conspiracy' to keep perpetuating 'fat phobia.' They read selective bits of prose that utilises 'true facts' and 'better science' to 'prove' that there is no 'weight connection' to their health. They seem to also believe that no-one else has read their 'science,' and that this 'better, truer, superior knowledge' is exclusively their own. They seem to think that only fat people would be party to this 'real ground-breaking truth,' whereas everything I've read is tenuous at best. They're twisting the core HAES Linda bacon rubbish to better fit their narrative, as things like intuitive eating are seen as a validation of eat everything, anything and don't dare tell us that ten pies a day is a bad habit. The sources are mostly circular, and are often other bloggers/websites with no scientific basis. And the sources are often just dressed-up science to fit the results anyway. For instance, all the 'you can be fat and fit' stuff has been shown by subsequent studies to be a load of rubbish, yet the original study that fits their narrative is still touted as gospel.  So using selective science, and touting propaganda that is based on feelings in a closed echo chamber world where every dissenter is dismissed as 'fatphobia' and 'haters,' and is subsequently blocked. Believing the media is 'evil,' all leads to a serious case of 'us vs them.' The clones occasionally realise that it's all absolute rubbish and this happens mostly when the medical problems start to hit home... "no, you fat special snowflake, your meningioma and spine surgery has been brought about by your fucking obesity and inability to do anything about it for decades of your worthless fat life." But lots still stay on the bandwagon, supposedly joined by other fatties who all put on a brave public facade on social media despite wheezing from 20 yards of waddling.  It's a bizarre cult of fat idiots claiming they know better than anyone else just because those that are thin have an agenda of some sort.  Anyone speaks of health, they just call it "concern trolling," and dismiss it because it's just "dressed up fatphobia." "Lard clones," I'm stealing that!
