Even Those Who Struggle Mightily to Lose Weight Are Guilty of Thin Privilege

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Cultural Marxism constantly expands by inventing new victim groups to alienate from the core population. A new one is those who base their personal identity on being overweight, who are oppressed by those who wield “thin privilege” by being in better shape.

But what about people who had a weight problem, but through self-discipline got the better of it? Are they to be hated for being oppressors too?

Yes. In a piece from last year, Everyday Feminism explains why (bold in original):

Because privilege isn’t actually dependent on whether you “worked for” it or not.

Furthermore, if you think you deserve anything because you worked for it, you are doubly bad:

[I]f you believe that you “deserve” your privilege (perhaps because you “worked for” it), then you also inherently believe that others “deserve” to be oppressed.

That would make you not only privileged but an unclean thought criminal.

Whatever burden you may bear, struggling to overcome it is counterproductive, because success would only turn you into an oppressor with privilege. Egalitarianism decrees that everyone is equal, whether they wallow in self-indulgence or struggle to improve themselves. However, those with privilege are less equal, because they oppress sacred victims. The only justifiable behavior is to whine, snivel, and throw tantrums — which liberals do relentlessly, thus securing the moral high ground.

Transcending thin privilege. Now if only she could fix her skin.

On a tip from J.
