Sure, let’s play ball with your strawman argument that democrats are “fatphobic”and classist. Firstly, I guess it’s a good thing I’m much farther left than democrats, but I guess you could consider me one for this moment.

From my understanding, the median Republican is poorer than the median Democrat. Most Democratic states have a minimum wage that’s much higher than Republican states and are more likely to get a higher education, meaning they can get even higher paying jobs later on in life.

Now, is this a bad thing? Yes! Is it their fault? No! So I’m not gonna shun them for it.

However, this does mean republicans have to buy cheaper, unhealthier food, which may lead to a higher obesity rate, or as you call it, being “fat”.

Is it a bad thing to be obese? That’s mostly subjective, there’s many reasons one can be obese. But there are always objective health complications that run along side obesity. To name a few: Lower life span, higher risk of heart disease, lower quality of life.

I’ve seen first hand how obesity affects people and their families. My grandfather passed away from heart failure pretty early on, and my uncle nearly lost his foot because he refused to get treatment for diabetes.

So, is it a bad thing to be obese? Not necessarily, but it’s usually an indicator of actual bad things. Is it a bad thing to do nothing about your obesity? Absolutely.

In reality however, these “middle class white democrats” you speak of that go around insulting people by calling them poor and fat don’t exist, and if they do, they’re a very small minority. You are just as hateful and ignorant as the people you’ve made up to fit your world view.

If you can get me a good source for your information, then please do! I encourage you to research this and share your results! Maybe you’ll even be able to change my mind about this.
