Mixed -Up Morals

Facebook slapped me on the wrist again today. I was a bad girl and my punishment is that I cannot post any comments on videos until December 31. Boo-hoo.

My infraction? A morbidly obese, to the point of grossness, woman in a hot pink bikini stands before you. She is literally popping out of her garment. Her breasts are ginormous, and her stomach is even bigger. She looks pregnant but isn't. Rubbing her hands sensuously over her protruding stomach and breasts while grinning lasciviously at the camera, she says, "I wish my body were smaller!" 

To which I wrote, "Eat less, you are too fat." (Actually I wrote f a t , trying to fool the bots. They're onto us.) Within seconds the Thought Police sent me a message: I was guilty of bullying which goes against their community standards. But somehow, people posing almost completely nude and twirling around to show us every part -- god forbid we should miss the buttocks -- is A-OK with the powers that be.

I'd like to understand how telling a fat person they are fat is bullying them. In my book you are doing them a favor and possibly saving their life
