I’m told that everyone is beautiful.
Therefore, I’m sure no one on TikTok would complain if their photos suddenly showed that they had gained 20 or 30 pounds. I mean: it would be offensive to be offended by that, right?
Removing those filters decenters fat enriched people, thus privileging fat poor people and reinforcing white patriarchal beauty standards, which essentially turns back the clock on any progress made toward body positivity.
