‘No One Has To Be Healthy’: San Fran Taps Fat Activist As ‘Weight Stigma’ Czar
Daily Wire ^ | 19 Dec 2024 | Amanda Prestigiacomo

San Francisco’s Department of Public Health has tapped fat activist Virgie Tovar as the liberal city’s “weight stigma” czar.

Tovar, author of “You Have the Right to Remain Fat” and a “DEI” professional, announced the position on her Instagram account on Monday.

“I’m UNBELIEVABLY proud to serve the city I’ve called home for almost 20 years in this way!” she wrote. “This consultancy is an absolute dream come true, and it’s my biggest hope and belief that weight neutrality will be the future of public health.”

Tovar describes herself as a “leading expert on weight-based discrimination and body positivity with over a decade of experience,” according to her website, which also details her “DEI,” or “diversity, equity, and inclusion” work.

“Virgie’s corporate trainings focus on creating a non-judgmental environment where professionals can build awareness, vocabulary and best practices aimed at decreasing occupational weight-based discrimination,” the DEI section of Tovar’s website reads. “She combines her academic background, professional expertise and personal lived experience to design virtual and in-person experiences that open up curiosity, empathy, and empowerment.”

Not surprising at all, given that it’s the city of San Fransicko.

I agree with the fat pig person. She (or it or whatever) had an absolute right as an American to be a fat pig.

It is also my right as an American to call this fat pig a fat pig and my right to not have to pay for its health problems.

And no one should have the power to make me pay for your fat-related health problems.

They could also appoint her “Ugly Czar” and get two for the price of one.

Fine. Then don’t expect the taxpayers to cover your medical costs.

'it’s my biggest hope and belief that weight neutrality will be the future of public health.'

Any doctor who tells you that it's 'OK' to be that fat should lose their license.

I have a silly observation/comment.

I’d think these fat leftist would file lawsuits against toilet manufacturers. I can’t imagine how that works on a standard toilet.

"Tovar describes herself as a “leading expert on weight-based discrimination and body positivity with over a decade of experience,"

Well, she obviously has the "experience" And as I said on another thread, she is NOT fat ... she is morbidly OBESE!

Are there NO limits to how stupid the leadership of San Francisco can be? They can't even keep the shit off their sidewalks, but now think this self-acclaimed entity will help those who live there.

I used to love Frisco, but now see it as everything wrong with Dims/Socialists/Commies ideologies.

Reminder: Frisco is Pelosi's district for years. She let it go to literal crap. I'm glad she broke her ugly ass. Sue me.
