Fitness influencers and Twitter users blasted a TIME interview for portraying exercise as an activity with roots in White supremacy.
"How did U.S. exercise trends go from reinforcing white supremacy to celebrating Richard Simmons?" the TIME article, titled "The White Supremacist Origins of Exercise, and 6 Other Surprising Facts about the History of U.S. Physical Fitness" asked.
The article was heavily mocked on Twitter, with critics saying it was destroying the media's credibility.
"Honestly, I want them to keep pumping articles like this out to eviscerate every remaining shred of their credibility and perceived legitimacy," British rapper Zuby tweeted. "It doesn't anger me at all. It's so goofy I consider it satire."
Ed Latimore, a former heavyweight boxer, tweeted, "First math was a tool of white supremacy. Now it's exercise. Pretty soon, food is gonna be a tool to continue systemic racism oppression."

"credibility"?
Well I guess I’m a horrible person going to the Gym three days a week. Sheesh. The silly writing continues.
Who knew that ‘Time’ magazine was taking over for ‘Mad’ and ‘Cracked’?
I remember the good ol’ days when all the racist just lived in Alabama.
Clearly Eugene Sandow hates non whites.
Or “destroying” as in the present tense? I’d say that all of our once-fine institutions have destroyed their own credibility - government, military, the press, the FBI.
Aren’t you in Alabama?…
:)
My dog likes to run on the treadmill, so now he’s racist. Maybe he dislikes cats.
Jane...........Stop this crazy thing!
I’ve lived in ‘Bama for twelve years and I’ve never heard a white person use the n-word. Ever. Lived in Detroit and near Youngstown, Ohio for a couple years each and heard the n-word out of white mouths on a daily basis.
It’s what the kids get good grades for in college and think that is what counts in the real world.
It’s double plus plus good to say “white man bad” caused everything wrong in the world.
False accusations of satire are triggering.
Running on a treadmill is racist? Who knew!
= = =
Training to run away from looters and knock out punches.
Sistas keepin’ it real.
Eating is racist.
Round up the fatties and send them to the pet food factory.
I now realize that I was raised in a deeply racist environment. My father was a music teacher and a church music director and exposed me at an early age to classical music, which has been exposed as white folks’ music. I learned to swim at an early age and frequented the pool and the beach, but not long ago, a critical race theorist said that swimming is racist. And my parents gave my younger brother the middle name Michael, whose short form is Mike, a racist name according to recent commentator who complained that a TV program features too many white guys named Mike.
So because I try to walk four miles a day, it looks as though I continue to engage in racist behavior.
So the idea is that white people should be fat, lazy and ignorant. I think they’re winning.
What is wrong with you?!?!
“Running on a treadmill is racist? Who knew! “
These days, anything a white person does is racist. Why, we are racist just for existing. I don’t play the game, I do as I please and really don’t care if some woketard thinks it’s “racist”.
