It SHOULD be sanctioned. If more of us 'fat-shamed', we might get humanity back the 20thC baseline (rare obesity). And did you really say that 'many people are not fat because they're lazy'? Out loud?
In a non-survival situation (ie, the rich west), people can and do stand on principal .. ALL THE TIME. Have you never heard anyone say things like "I'd never hire a Nazi" etc?
I doubt you have ever been to Brooklyn. You strike me as someone who never ventures out of her mama's basement. You'd be to scared. What type of work did you do? The only businesses in those areas are slum lords, drug dealers, bail bondsmen, and whores. Which were you?
I was saying that it is wrong to accuse obese people of being lazy. You want to shame people for being overweight...whatta guy!
Lol..Lived most of my life in Brooklyn, taught in bed study Brooklyn I went to the same high school as Ruth Bader Ginsberg, Chuck Schumer, Bernie Sanders and Carol King, you know intelligent people I love extremists like you who create these childish stupid scenarios like you did. I enjoy your lack of knowledge about Brooklyn not realizing it has over 4,000,000 people. Come on, get out of your single room occupancy boarding house and go to Brooklyn and then you can tell us about all the people who tried to beat you up
It's not wrong at all. Obesity is a very simple equation: less movement than the intake demands. It's not strictly a food thing, IOW. You could eat an 'average' amount of food, but if you never move, it'll tell. And you're damned straight I think the 'fat acceptance' thing is wrong. Dangerously wrong. But I'm not at all surprised you're on the side of 'don't ever say anything to upset anyone .. even when what they're doing will harm them or others'. Disneylandesque absurdity ... anti-life virtue signalling.
Caught in another lie. You think Bed Study is the most crime infested part of Brooklyn? That proves you have never been to Brooklyn. If that is what you consider intelligent people. You must have taught special education.
Lol...when I taught there it was, . Please stop being a child with”I gotcha “ because you obviously don’t know Brooklyn, I grew up there, taught there and lived there....The funny thing is when I met my husband I was living in Greenwich Village and he suggested moving to Brooklyn Heights. I said I wouldn’t live in Brooklyn anymore. I didn’t even know that Brooklyn Heights existed when I grew up because Brooklyn is huge. The heights is like a mini village. Obviously you don’t know Brooklyn or you would know bed study was a brutal place. Look up Marcy projects or listen to jay z songs. And don’t demean special ed teachers just because you had a bad experience with yours
Hardly rich but yeah Jews. Where I grew up we were not rich but my high school was predominantly Jewish .is that ok?
The problem with this is that we have denied minorities ( specifically blacks ) the opportunity to receive a good education generally. This has huge long reaching effects into the market place and well beyond into the family unit. I know this is a very simple statement in a much broader / complex situation, so please dont think this is the ONLY reason.
We have something called an of knowledge prejudice. For hundreds of years black people were told that they are inferior. That message was internalized by white people as well as black people. Just because it becomes illegal to discriminate doesn’t mean internalize messages go away. There is a legacy that is left behind from segregation and it will still take a few more generations
Looks to me like you were a typical Jewish American Princess. Thinking your little sample of the world was all there was. Not even knowing what existed a couple of miles away. Just because you saw an occasional black person in your neighborhood, you thought it was crime infested. You needed to get out of your white bread world and see the real New York. Take a trip up to Harlem or Central Park in the old days. If you want to know what it was like read the attached. https://www.thedailybeast.com/the-dark-secrets-of-central-park
That seems like something hard to measure. Are there any studies that demonstrate that black people think they are inferior?
I guess we can add anti-Semitism to your list. I could tell you about the marcy projects in bed sty where I taught for more than 25 years Believe me I know more about Harlem and Central Park and Brooklyn than you’ll ever know. How do you know so much more than I? You probably lived in a poor uneducated area where they envied the intellectuals and hated Jews successes . Yes because I’m Jewish I must’ve been a jap which of courses an anti Semitic term, usually said by insecure guys with little hands who have to use sexist avatars or feel manly....
I am sure there are but I am not going to start looking into it. It’s kind of like the parent who tells a child he is stupid and ugly all the time, do you need a study to show that child might grow up feeling inferior? Do you think that telling a black person that he is inferior for hundreds of years might have an impact and might have and internalize message? On both sides?
