Finding some real creepy misinformation in Association for Size Diversity and Health's website.

[quote]What’s worse is this thin-centric healthcare is not benign. It causes harm. One study showed fat women who intentionally lost at least 15% of their body weight were over two times higher risk of death compared to fat women who remained weight stable. Another study found that risk of dying from cardiovascular disease was higher in people who lost weight. That risk increased with more weight lost and the group that lost over 22 pounds was at 3.5 times higher risk of dying from cardiovascular disease compared to the weight stable group.

Yet, many healthcare providers encourage weight loss for all fat patients despite this evidence. Some healthcare providers refuse to offer care like medication, referrals to physical therapy, and even deny surgery unless patients pursue and attain weight loss. This unethical approach to healthcare may account for all of the health disparities seen in fat people, and [b]body size may not have any direct effect on health.[/b][/quote]

I'm in favor of body positivity, broadly, and stuff, but the mechanics behind obesity causing joint & heart problems are so basic and observable that denying it puts you on par with like, a flat earther. I'm sure there are other organizations which do similar advocacy but aren't run by quacks. Fat people really can't catch a break, can they? They have to deal with constant stigma and mockery from the broader culture, the food industry fights tooth and nail to make healthy eating harder for them, and then one of the organizations positioning themselves as their allies are malignantly batshit crazy.
