Weird My Picture Was Stolen And Turned Into A Fat-Shaming Anti-Feminist Meme On Facebook

[The Helper]

I’ve always been someone who wasn’t scared to share pics of myself online or to post a profile picture. In fact, I always enjoyed sharing pictures of myself with friends or in the Facebook pages I helped run for different groups I am involved with at my university.

That was until I received an awkward, random message on OkCupid as I was going to sleep a couple of nights ago.

At first, I wasn’t sure if I believed him. See, when you are openly fat and feminist on a dating site, it isn’t uncommon for randoms to harass you. For whatever reason I felt like he was sincere, so I messaged him back and tried to figure out what page he saw it on. I looked on anti-feminist subreddits, I checked the Facebook page he thought it was on, and I couldn’t find anything. I chalked it up to exactly what I thought it was, another OkCupid douchecanoe messing with me.

But when I got up the next morning he had sent me the link. It had over 2000 shares, almost 10,000 likes, and almost 1000 comments. Overnight, I had become an Internet meme.

Her Picture Was Stolen & Turned Into A Fat-Shaming Anti-Feminist Meme On Facebook

When Kelly attended a “This is what a feminist looks like” campaign at her university she did nothing out of the ordinary. She took pictures, enjoyed her time with friends and spoke about things that were important to her and millions of other women around the globe. Kelly never expected that...

Well, that's the internet for you. She's just made it worse for herself.

Couldn't have said it better myself, I'd go as far as to say that this is her fault....

Pretty much what I expected, too. In fairness, it isn't really fat shaming so much as plausibly bitch shaming. Like, if I had something like this become a meme, I would be excited as hell, not pissed off that someone called me skinny (which is just as offensive as fat, because it's true). Like fuck, get over it. That's what happens when you post stupid shit on the god damn Internet; she's lucky there isn't a dick in it somehow slapping her grinny, fat, and feminist face.

Tl;dr "I posted a picture that was asking for it. Then when I got it I was upset, ended up making (another) tumblr group that will feed my attention hungry soul"

It is amusing how big this was made. Also, is it just me or is it starting to get trendy for people to want to get their embarrassing pictures down from the internet?

You cant get something out of the internet once it grabbed the attention of the douches. Thats something they should teach in school these days.

The Streisand effect is the phenomenon whereby an attempt to hide, remove, or censor a piece of information has the unintended consequence of publicizing the information more widely, usually facilitated by the Internet.

Seems to work. Now all of us have seen it too. I would have never seen this on facebook or anywhere...

Ye lol................. who ever think they will find justice and nice people all over internet... well-...- ^

this how ever is interesting...:

“We remove content if it’s required by relevant privacy laws in the country you’re writing from. Since you’re an adult writing in the US, we won’t be able to remove this content for violating your privacy.”

Good to know Facebook doesn’t care about people stealing your photos and turning them into mean-spirited memes.

So they put up a tumblr to protect their god damn feminist rights, and made even more feminists take pictures of themselves.

people are fucking stupid and crazy. Look at this mom, telling all her kids they pretty much HAVE to be feminists, they probably dont even know what it means.

edit: I have nothing against feminists' ideas, that being said.

Racism. Sexism. Feminism.

Another 'ism... this one hides under the pretense of freeing women, whilst it actually hinders them from doing what they want to do - whether that be a pornstar or a stripper. It then goes even further and tells men what they can and cannot do. To be fair, it seems to be freeing a certain sect of women, but enslaving the rest.

The moment KaerfNomekop highlighted the word "alot" with spoiler tags, I knew what to expect, lol.

I fail to see why there even is such a large feminist movement. They aren't hindered by anyone anymore than men in most cases, with the exception of them being like "I'm a women therefore the odds are stacked against me." No, the odds are stacked against you because you want them to be, since for whatever reason you decided you don't have enough hardships.

I mean fuck, the girl that waits tables at the restaurant I work at made more than my pay all night in ONE tip last night. You think I get any of that money even though I was the one that did ALL of the work making it? Talk about fucking pay inequality....

Hmmm interresting.. at my local restaurants all the people working there have the same pay and share the tip pot. Those are only a few of the restaurants tho. Funny thing; the ones with shared tip pots get more tip over all than those who dont share. From what I've heard, but I guess it sort of makes sense.

The are horny, what a D, but are unattractive (most of them atleast). Again, we are talking about the masses; not the small % of women who actually believe in whatever their ideal is (I have yet to meet a woman, feminist or not, who doesn't want tons of attention).
