I think, unfortunately, the fact that the movement is decentralized and it's prone to being co-opted, it can do harm in the ways that I have shown you.

So I really want to focus on what you've just been saying about the co-opting of the movement.

Surrounded
Jillian Michaels vs 20 Body Positivity Activists

Because what you seem to be critiquing is the people who've co-opted the movement, not the people who actually built the movement.

I don't disagree, but it's become, as I mentioned, a patchwork quilt of like, I'm an activist, I'm an influencer, I'm a dietician.

So when people are misusing that, we are a movement that doesn't have the same resources as the health and wellness industry or the health and wellness grifters.
