What gets missed is much of 'body positivity' starts with self-loathing and other mental health issues. You overeat/drink to cope with trauma, your issues makes it even harder to make changes you know you need to make, thus body positivity becomes the way to cope.

This is exactly why body positivity as we know it today needs to be dismantled. People with mental illness need to be helped and cared for and educated on how to take care of their body, not lied to about obesity being beautiful.

Praising obesity, etc. isn't a good idea, but criticizing somebody about their body should be avoided. None of us know what another person is dealing with & their bodies are ultimately their own. Kindness towards all can be the best encouragement to work towards good health.

Exactly. Support when someone is trying to make changes is important, but don't think for a second that your criticism of somone comes close to their criticism of themselves.

Good point on health but lost in politics and religion packaging. Wellness is important and should be explained objectively otherwise one side (whichever that may be) will never even listen.
