The libs ran the cigarette smokers out of town because they were smelly and dirty, yet they encourage people to shorten their lives and ruin their health by becoming obese.

Is obesity bothersome, let’s just say try sitting in an airplane seat next to Lizzo.

“I remember school in the 70’s and 80’s where there was always the one fat kid. Now there is always the one skinny kid”

LOL.

Not only that, I also remember the era when the White Dad was the smartest guy who could do anything, fix anything, console distraught children, bring home the bacon and be the perfect husband. Now who is the stupidest person in movies and tv by a country mile? The very same white dad.

Dumbo was a villain? The Dragon (in Pete’s Dragon) was a villain? Balu was a villain? I’m sure there are other examples.

I get it. Just enough with the breathless “firsts.”

SURE MISS the days when a main character flew over the railing, or popped into a chalk picture, or sang with the penguins (yes, my fav was and still is MARY POPPINS)

So when’s the next Disney film on humans who refuse to take baths or conduct personal hygiene. They need they’re movie to prove how heroic it is to be lazy.

Maybe you would, but it is completely irrelevant to this thread. It is entirely possible to be grossly, obese, and to correctly scorn the normalization of that major health condition, or psychological dysfunction.

“In 2010, Ms. Obama launched her “Let’s Move” campaign for “solving the problem of childhood obesity in a generation.” She proclaimed a goal of reducing the percentage of overweight and obese children by 2.5 percent by 2015. She was speedily awarded sainthood for her lofty aspirations”.

I thought the left was so enamored of Michelle? This is now forgotten and health concerns are tossed?

I remember school in the 70’s and 80’s where there was always the one fat kid.

And he was always the catcher on the baseball/softball team.

” In the company’s 85-year history of making movies, plus-size characters have only ever featured in the roles of villains or extras...”

BS. Dumbo.

Well, at least they are catering to an actual large demographic in modern America, rather than a couple percent of the population.
