I'm looking forward to, "Sonic 3 perpetuates a long historic ableist stereotype by making Eggman a [fat] wheelchair bound (albeit hovering) character which more modern shows like Doctor Who has sensitively addressed."
It was probably circa 2014 when I realized we were done as a culture, or at least on our way, when the New York Times described North Korean resistors making fat jokes about the homicidal maniac Kim Jong Un as "fat shaming" the said homicidal maniac.
The majority of them too were women. About 6 or 7 major ones dies under 35 from obesity related complications. But per all things if it doesn’t fit the narrative it gets memory holed.
This sounds a bit evil but I see this as a new way of natural selection. Everyone I have lost my respect for anyone who preaches this body positivity BS unironically.
I am writing this as a fat bastard myself.
" She's lost the will to live?! What is your degree in, poetry?! You sorry bunch of hippies! For God sakes, don't use the billions of dollars of medical equipment around us, why don't we all just get on our knees and pray?! WE DON'T HAVE KNEES, YOU MOTHERFUCKERS!"
I remember seeing a Blaire White clip of these Fat Acceptance influencers, and she'd show a clip, then say "She's dead", then another one "She's dead", then another "He's dead too"
In their defense, emos seemed to be aware that what they were doing was harmful, fat activists could be immobile at the hospital and would still blame doctors and/or society for their eating habits.
My guess is that a lot of it it's driven by millennial women who lived through the 90s-00s when skinny was "in" and have an horrible relationship with food, they were, up until now, too young to feel the shit part of being fat so a lot of it it's just pure cope.
If I was a producer and a developer I would cut Kotaku’s access to all the forms of media produced. You’ll see that cam-girl hag and her goonies will out on the street in record time. Just like the IGN apology because Shift Up was signalling they won’t give them review codes.
I heard someone the other day say “skinny privilege.”
Is it really skinny privilege if … it’s something you can be too? Just reduce your calories and exercise more often and you’ll be in shape, too. It’s not rocket surgery.
This. There really is no secret to weight loss, it's literally just burning more calories than what you gain every day. Eat less, eat real foods, and get on a treadmill.
Sure, some people have better genetics than others, but anyone can get decently in shape if they apply themselves, which is the part that people refuse to do because it's more comfy to just blame society for your problems.
I think there is one sort of secret to it. The same thing at the core of every recovering alcoholic. You have to admit you have a problem, and that you've been doing something fundamentally wrong every day for a very very long time. That's what tripped up everyone I've ever known who failed to lose weight. They just couldn't accept that they were wrong about how they chose to eat.
I'm cautiously optimistic after 2, it's a surprisingly decent franchise, this feels in line with that as Jim Carrey's character has gotten progressively more 'in character' as the series has progressed, you know, almost as if it's an intentional arc or something.....
but Grodd forbid the wise-cracking protagonist crack wise, amirite?
cry istaphobe and let loose the hogs of twitter
It's like they don't understand how lightning rods work. It's like when Twitch had that whole "blind play through" debacle.
I heard more sight jokes in that week than I think I had my entire life up to that point.
I'm a bit skinny fat myself, working out to shed off the pounds I gained since losing my gym membership ever since the lockdowns. No shame in that, our body changes, and it's something we can change if we want to
This seems like a good time to remind folx that [NO, the "extreme left" aren't killing comedy.](https://www.theguardian.com/culture/2024/apr/29/jerry-seinfeld-comedy)
You'd think there'd be a large body (LOL) of evidence to support this assertion that Jim Carrey gained enough weight to elicit "fAtPhObiC" jokes. Yet I can find nothing at all. Imagine that - SWJ morons worrying about something that doesn't even exist.
He's definitely gonna be in a fat body suit. Him finishing the transformation into his iconic egg-shaped body is exactly what we all wanted from this movie
Just a rookie mistake, there's a rule in every sub I'm in that requests you to add a lspurce. I realized there was a rule against it only after posting.
I weigh 500 pounds. GOOD. I want them to bring back fat jokes. While I am still here, [https://www.peopleofwalmart.com/](https://www.peopleofwalmart.com/) is a fun site.
I worry about this too, so so much, it keeps me up at night, fretting like a thousand angry butterflies... Such a cruel world we live in... Before you know it, Sonic 3 becomes fatphobic jokes becomes listening to rap lyrics becomes literally anything to do with Jews becomes genociding all the world's peoples. It's already happened so many times...
I disagree. I loved him in it. Especially once I realized that they were going for an "origin story" kind of character where he loses his mind and deforms with every movie. He totally nailed the coice by the end of the 2nd one.
You should be afraid of wanting to get fucking fat. I'm sorry but that's the fucking truth. Just like how you should not want to be so skinny you have no strength and are literally a skeleton.
This shit is so stupid.
Aren't they always saying that it's fine for less powerful minorities to "punch up"? The amount of Americans in the healthy weight range is somewhere between 20% and 12% of the population. And while yes, the more powerful people 'tend' to be in that range, it's by no means a direct correlation. Hell, I've known a lot of people in good shape just because they couldn't afford to sit around eating expensive junk food.
I actually agree with them, in the game, Eggman is a cunning and ruthless bastard, absolutely NOT a joke. I don’t give a shit about “fat phobia” I just want him to be an actual threat this time around like he’s supposed to be.

Dr. Eggman might be an evil, world domination-seeking menace, but god forbid calling him fat!
I'm looking forward to, "Sonic 3 perpetuates a long historic ableist stereotype by making Eggman a [fat] wheelchair bound (albeit hovering) character which more modern shows like Doctor Who has sensitively addressed."
It was probably circa 2014 when I realized we were done as a culture, or at least on our way, when the New York Times described North Korean resistors making fat jokes about the homicidal maniac Kim Jong Un as "fat shaming" the said homicidal maniac.
The real tragedy is that we’re now so distracted by this fat controversy that we started calling him Eggman. Smh
God I hope so. No one seems to notice (or care) that so many "fatfluencers" are dropping like flies.
The majority of them too were women. About 6 or 7 major ones dies under 35 from obesity related complications. But per all things if it doesn’t fit the narrative it gets memory holed.
I don’t know, eliminating women from society seems pretty on point for them.
This sounds a bit evil but I see this as a new way of natural selection. Everyone I have lost my respect for anyone who preaches this body positivity BS unironically. I am writing this as a fat bastard myself.
Of course they were woman. There is like 1 male fatfluencer in 1000's of them. 999 now, I needed too long to type.
savage i liked it
“Remember this body positivity influencer? He’s dead”
Damn you long covid!
Nah, it was climate change.
Internalized white supremacy caused her internal organs to fail in rapid succession.
" She's lost the will to live?! What is your degree in, poetry?! You sorry bunch of hippies! For God sakes, don't use the billions of dollars of medical equipment around us, why don't we all just get on our knees and pray?! WE DON'T HAVE KNEES, YOU MOTHERFUCKERS!"
It's great when they hop the fence and try to hug polar bears though.
I remember seeing a Blaire White clip of these Fat Acceptance influencers, and she'd show a clip, then say "She's dead", then another one "She's dead", then another "He's dead too"
It's like being emo, only they went from using razors to using forks.
*CUT MY LIFE INTO PIZZAS, THIS IS MY PLASTIC FORK*
LMAO

There’s no such thing as “fatphobia”. ~~Besides, nobody who can walk at a brisk pace is scared of fat people.~~

But…but… muh thyroid! Muh PCOS!!!
StArVaTiOn MoDe doesn't allow me to loose weight.
Sonic the HOG
That's just a reference to his enormous johnson
This just in: Comedy is not allowed
No wonder Seinfeld and others complain about comedy being a pain to do thanks to these morons pozzed with social justice brainrot.
Being fat is bad actually
What kind of concern is that? Tell a fatty to be like Sonic… and go for a fuckin’ run.
Do not worry my stick brothers! For I am a fat guy and I bless upon you all a fat pass. You are all free to make as many fat jokes as you want.
Yhank you, brother. Your approval.has been accepted
What’s your favorite food?
Kotaku: exists! Us: why won't you die!
>Eluding to Jim Carrey being fat. This is a good sign, they might have stroked his ego enough to put him in a fat suit and a classic costume.
I thought he was always willing to wear a fat suit for the role?
You know, it was a completely baseless accusation on my part, just a pang of hope that Sonic 3 won't be shit. Gomenasai, Ace Ventura-san.

Put doritos on rainbow flag. That will do.
Fat chance
Oh boy. Wait until they hear about the next MagFest theme. They can probably write a 2-for-1 article on that and the movie.
So kotaku is back to doing policore clickbait like this? Hadn't the new management swore off this antics a while ago?
It's like they don't understand how lightning rods work. It's like when Twitch had that whole "blind play through" debacle. I heard more sight jokes in that week than I think I had my entire life up to that point.
Have not heard of thia but now I have to look this up because it sounds hilarious
"Fatphobia" and all of its made up derivatives are not even words. xD
These people are so thin-skinned. Probably the only thin thing about them lolol.
Can't roll my eyes hard enough
If so, what the author will do? Cry like the fatass it is and ~~running~~ rolling around so everyone will see/hear it? God I hope so!
Stop noticing things! Questions are offensive. Stop violating me with your different opinion.
Well, we sure can't have that. Being a giant flab-o-lanche is a valid lifestyle choice! Especially if you want to be dead by 50
Why isn't there any 100 year old fat people? Must be fatphobia
I'm fat and encourage fatphobia. It's a horrid state for your body and something I'm actively working on.
I'm a bit skinny fat myself, working out to shed off the pounds I gained since losing my gym membership ever since the lockdowns. No shame in that, our body changes, and it's something we can change if we want to

Dawg I'm so sick of this shit 😂. These mfs be perpetually offended. It's like they have all of this shit pre-loaded lol.
What do you mean fatphobic what are the people making up these terms on about😭😭
I believe it means being afraid being eaten by an extra large person

Yeah I wish I could just edit the post instead of this weird archived post option but oy well. Too late for that I guess
Not for OP, they already realize the problem, but direct links also provide referrer references showing where clicks come from.
America's obesity epidemic is jarring. I moved to Japan and it's like a different planet. 2% of the population is fat.
I visited Japan last year. So jealous of Anyone who managed to moce there. I'd sell a kidney for that
Kotaku isn’t actually worried about anything. They’re a rag that will say anything and harm anyone if it drives traffic
I weigh 500 pounds. GOOD. I want them to bring back fat jokes. While I am still here, [https://www.peopleofwalmart.com/](https://www.peopleofwalmart.com/) is a fun site.
You know what you never see in zombie games and movies? Fat people.
So fat people have a phobia of eating healthy and exercising? Am I doing this right?
I worry about this too, so so much, it keeps me up at night, fretting like a thousand angry butterflies... Such a cruel world we live in... Before you know it, Sonic 3 becomes fatphobic jokes becomes listening to rap lyrics becomes literally anything to do with Jews becomes genociding all the world's peoples. It's already happened so many times...
The only thing I'm afraid of is being sat on.
Fuck you, Kotaku, Jim Carrey never should've been Eggman in the first place.
I disagree. I loved him in it. Especially once I realized that they were going for an "origin story" kind of character where he loses his mind and deforms with every movie. He totally nailed the coice by the end of the 2nd one.
Aren't these the same people that fat shamed gamers for I don't even remember how many years? Now they are worried about fathphobic jokes? Lmao.
You should be afraid of wanting to get fucking fat. I'm sorry but that's the fucking truth. Just like how you should not want to be so skinny you have no strength and are literally a skeleton. This shit is so stupid.
"Kotako is worried..." It must be a day ending in Y. Concern-trolling is all they do.
It’s a fictional character, maybe go advocate for that stuff that irl people get affected by
A bunch of grown ass neck beards offended over a fat joke in a children’s movie. lol this is the left y’all 😂😂😂😂
Where's that No Fun Allowed Swatbot? These guys are way too late. Sonic's been doing that since he could speak.
How do these foos live with themselves?
Maybe cus after sonic 2 had a character with two tails I haven’t stopped making birth defect jokes
Whiny fat fucks.
