    I’m fat. I’m not offended at the term “fascist fattie” as a reference to Trump. I’m unafraid of the truth that I’m overweight because it is the truth.

    Conservatives are welcome to call me “Tubby Trans-supporter”, “Pot-bellied Progressive”, “Dumpy Democrat”, “Blubbery Biden-voter”, “Flabby Feminist”, “Adipose Ally”, “Lardy Liberal”, “Stout Scientist” “Elephantine Environmentalist”, “Swollen Socialist” and more.

      The Pot-bellied Progressives and The Swollen Socialists would both be decent band names

          Swollen Socialist and the Pot Bellied Progressives?

          I dig it, they better be a proper punk band though. As in, none of them really know how to play an instrument, but God damn are they banging on their guitars anyways

      Maybe we should probably take some time to consider what sort of circumstances OOP may have had to endure due to his fascist regime, that may have prompted her post, before we start policing her tone.

      It’s maybe not great to invalidate her whole message because a part of it is unpleasant. Like, acknowledge her point first, then address the microaggression, I feel.
