Any of those mocking, smokers?
Or don't exercise 30+ minutes a day?

Yes, they are an extreme.
But they are just silly people. People being the operative word.
Use the same terms about smoking as you do obesity and see how many Dwellars smack you down.

Yes I write this because I am fat.
And I'm not saying it in a proud way.
I am intelligent. Which should make it worse.
But somehow their lack of intelligence makes them a target.

I hate that people can be lambasted in the street for being fat, but not for smoking/ drinking/ littering/ all the rest.
we're not mocking their fatness, we're mocking their attitudes.
