Uh...so yea... speaking from experience, being a fat fuck is not a disability that needs representation or accessibility. It's just being fat

I mean, I’d word it a lot nicer than that. But I just watched the show police rescue where they had to help a poor woman who’d had a bad fall and needed a special ambulance and it was so bloody sad. I embrace diversity, we’re all different and not everyone looks like a star from Baywatch, but like where’s the limit to fat representation here? Cause that poor woman didn’t need people in games who look like her, she needed serious help.

Fair enough, totally don't agree but I respect that that's your opinion.

Also I never said being fat is a disability where you need accessibility in video games.
