And the people saying he was out of line weren't referencing the conversation about obesity and healthcare. In fact, they furthered that conversation. They were not at all crying foul at saying the word obese, which you insinuated.
Quote:That's literally what tons of people do now. They cry fat-shaming as soon as obesity is even brought up.
Is that what's happening here?
Quote:Watch the whole video. Maybe you still think it's not funny, or a bit mean-spirited, but what do you expect from Maher? It doesn't change the legitimacy of what he's saying.

Please refer back to the things people in this thread and in the article found distasteful. Your entire rant was that no one can say obese when literally no one cared about people saying obese.
