We get it, you don't like fat people. Franck doesn't like black people, and someone else doesn't like white people.
Stop being such a prejudice fuck, because it hurts you more than it does the person you're being a dick too.  |
no, it's not called discrimination, not even close, I am fat, and you are wrong.
discrimination would be charging someone more because you don't like the color of their skin, or you don't like the fact that they are fat.
This is charging someone more because it costs more to service them. It's the way the world should work, and it is perfectly fair.
if an elevator will hold 12 people or 1500 pounds, and I am on it with just 6 people who weigh 200 pounds each and some 750 pound behemoth wants to get on with us, am I discriminating against him when I ask him to wait for the next elevator? is the correct thing to do let him in and risk the lives of all 6 of us because he puts the mass 450 pounds over limit. The elevator clearly states that it will hold 12 normal sized people, so obviously I am a racist bigot discriminator?
I just went shopping for a new jacket. Like I said, I am fat, so I went to the big and tall store. Unfortunately I am not quite big enough, so I have to go to the normal stores and check out the few 48's they have in stock. At most of them, the same jacket in a 48" is about 20% more than it is in a 38". Is that discrimination, they want to charge me more just because I am fat? Or maybe is it because there is 20% more material in the jacket I need.
