I think the point is not to pick on people because they are superficially different.Attacking fat people is exactly as bad as racism, ageism, sexism and all the other isms (apart from prisms which are cool).

If fat people weren't greedy, they wouldn't be fat.Age, race, sex, sexuality are not matters of choice.

So it's okay to pick on someone if they've made bad choices in their lives?As long as they brought it upon themselves then they're fair game? I'm no hippie but can't we be a bit more civilised than that?

I was simply trying to point out that the things you mentioned were not all the same.

I maintain that they are the same.Essentially disliking someone who is different to you.
Perhaps one thing you might consider is this - 99% of fat people desperately want to be slim and healthy. Society increasingly derides them for being fat. The message to be slim is pronounced and yet these people are still unable to control their weight problems despite all the misery they will endure. This alone should tell you that it isn't the childlike explanation that you gave - attributing their condition to basic greed.
Anyway, I don't feel like arguing tonight, you're free to hate whoever you like based on whatever arbitrary characteristic you choose.

But you preceded it with 'I don't feel like arguing tonight',which implies that that is why I am free to do it.

Grammatically ambiguous I conceed.Anyway, I usually avoid debating with people online as it is often a monumental waste of time. Both sides are so intractable.
I will rephrase and say that we are all entitled to our own views. And finally... I must turn in because it's an early start for me tomorrow.
