Apologies for the low resolution. It was a mobile ad and all I could get was a screenshot.

if it’s not my body, it’s none of my fucking business.

Please don't be obtuse. When it gets put into an ad campaign aimed at me and the 99.9% of other people where looking like would be extremely bad for our own personal health, it becomes our business.

Look at it another way, a year ago would you have said to an antivaxxer / antimasker "who am I to judge"? The effects here are much more subtle and take more time, but the same logic applies, and the results of inaction are no less insidious.

So sure, all right, maybe a single person might be all right without a vaccine/without a mask/eating only 30 calories a day, but that is not something that should be encouraged. And the dumbass republicans/marketers who spread this behavior should be called out and shamed.

Obesity is also extremely bad for our own personal health so we should stop seeing obese people in ads too right?

Yes? I don't know what kind of gotcha you thought you had but it didn't work out too well.

I've encountered lots of people in real life and the Internet who think it's perfectly acceptable to be obese(health at every size, etc), there's a whole anti diet campaign and everything. I'm glad you personally don't feel that way, I agree with you the extremes in either direction are unhealthy. But let's not pretend like that is some unheard of viewpoint.
