remember when i said this a few weeks back and got harassed for days? (i’m still getting harassed, lol)

well here it is from a nutritionist.
she’s right, and so was i.
the biggest difference, however, is that i was *also* making the point that the foods we call “bad” or “junk” are associated always with Blackness which in turn moralizes ‘white’ foods/white people.
like i’m thankful a nutritionist is saying this (and, to be clear, HAES nutritionists and fat activists have been saying this), but i’m so angry with how violently i have been engaged around saying literally this exact same thing. https://twitter.com/dashaunlh/status/1325800722491973633
people were accusing me, someone from the hood who has lived in several food deserts, of advocating for food deserts and working on behalf of corporations. they called me all types of names and wished death on me. LOL.
like folks were deadass like “there are literally corps that make poison and distribute it to poor people” as if i ever argued anything different, lmao. like this shit is actually making me so mad.
