# The difference is...
Fat people don't get terrorised by gangs of skinheads. There aren't articles in the gutter press saying fat people are the cause of crime and unemployment and should fuck off back to fatland. There aren't mad far-right parties contesting elections on the anti-fat ticket...

Don't play down racism by comparing it to a handful of fattie jokes.
EDIT: Unless you're being sarcastic or something, in which case just ignore this.

# Fat on fat violence
Is a channel somewhere in the upper reaches of the EPG I think

# I'm not so sure about that
have you seen that film Seven? or Se7en as it's also known as.
I saw a fat man die in that just because he was fat.

I mean what is the world coming to? Shame on us.

# I have been beaten up simply because I'm fat. I've been abused in the street and as a group, people like me have been denigrated in the press
I agree with you though as far as that racism and the problems faced by those who haven't got white privilege is much more serious than the abuse faced by people who are lardy, and racism is a whole different planet to the anti-fat brigade.
