Sonalee Rashatwar’s Jihad Against Fatphobia

A solution has been discovered to the scourge known as fatphobia. We must dismantle Western Civilization. So proclaims West Philadelphia therapist Sonalee Rashatwar.

Via The Philadelphia Enquirer:

Her perspective, one of a fat South Asian nonbinary person, has gained enhanced notoriety through Instagram, where she often posts telegram-like advice to the account @thefatsextherapist.

I’m not sure where a fat South Asian nonbinary person fits on the Cultural Marxist totem pole, but it is certainly much higher than the core population, which carries on its conscience the guilt of spreading Western Civilization through colonialism and thereby creating fatphobia.

Rashatwar traces contemporary fatphobia to colonial brutality and how enslaved people were treated. Citing researcher-advocate Caleb Luna, Rashatwar said curing anti-fatness would mean dismantling society’s foundation: “I love to talk about undoing Western civilization because it’s just so romantic to me.”

In the context of glorifying obesity, Rashatwar righteously denounces “white supremacists fatphobia.” There is nothing white supremacists cannot be blamed for.

Buying into moonbattery is like installing a complete ideological software suite. No one should be surprised to learn that Rashatwar describes herself as “anti-cop, anti-US government, anti-military.” No doubt law enforcement officers, the American republic, and the US Armed Forces are guilty of fatphobia.

So are fitness instructors:

“I was not surprised that the person who shot up the mosque in Christchurch, New Zealand, was also a fitness instructor. I was not surprised by that because people who are Nazis, people who are white supremacists, people who are trying to think of the perfect race are also super fatphobic… Oftentimes it’s very eugenic.”

Sitting in front of the television and eating a box of donuts instead of getting some exercise may seem like wallowing in weakness, but actually it is taking a heroic stand against Nazi fitness instructors and their white supremacist fatphobia. Or at least, you can see why a certain type would want a therapist to tell them soothing lies like this.

Rashatwar even wants to abolish the body mass index, because it is discriminatory to “categorize and pathologize bodies based on fatness.” She also proclaims that the overweight are oppressed by fatphobia when retailers refuse to stock clothes in unusual sizes or charge more for clothes that require substantially more material. The solution is to retaliate with “disability justice.”

Most of us could stand to lose a little weight, but the severely obese put their health in grave peril. Dangers include heart disease, stroke, high blood pressure, diabetes, cancer, gallbladder disease, gallstones, osteoarthritis, gout, and breathing problems like apnea and asthma.

Losing weight is usually not easy and in some cases may be impossible, but advising people not to try is irresponsible in the extreme.

If being fat becomes a protected identity that confers privileges on those who claim it, the effect on public health will be almost as disastrous as it has been regarding homosexual perversion, which also entails serious health risks (HIV/AIDS, human papillomavirus, hepatitis, gonorrhea, syphilis, gay bowel syndrome, intestinal parasites, anal cancer, psychiatric problems, tuberculosis, etc).
