Firstly, the alternative offered to bullying, i.e. coddling, hasn't reduced the problem at all. Celebrating and enabling obesity has accelerated it. You can't say bullying is invalid when your only other solution is less effective. Secondly, your definition of bullying is simply people acknowledging that you are fat. It's not bullying to keep in the mainstream the fact that obesity is a huge problem. The threshold for bullying doesn't start as soon as people aren't 100% supportive of your lifestyle choices. Criticism is not bullying.

Encouraging people to be healthy is now bullying.

Exactly, and I want to add fat people are lazy and have no self control. Can't believe this disgustly fat, unfunny fuck replaced Craig Ferguson
