It's not ok to claim that being overweight is healthy or to try to push that belief onto other people. These ideas are dangerous and should be countered.

However, not every overweight person believes they are healthy. They are not worthless and I don't believe in shaming them. Everyone endures different experiences in life and that sends them down paths where their health takes a back seat. There's no point in making their struggle worse by shaming them.

I think that distinction would be worth it for our community to take into consideration.
