I am currently – literally – WEDGED between two OBESE people on my flight.
This is absolutely NOT acceptable or okay. If fat people want to be fat, fine. But it is something else entirely when I'm stuck between you, with your arm rolls on my body, for 3 hours. pic.twitter.com/9uIqcpJO8I

Fat people are really colonizing normal people’s space with their weight, and it’s just not right.
The airplane is definitely the most obvious example of this, but even when you’re walking in stores and so on, the fats are getting up on you and blocking your path.
If fats want to be fat, they should have to pay some kind of extra tax for the way they push other people out, and they should just be banned from planes entirely.
What are these fats even doing on planes? Why would a fat person need to leave their den?
A conservative commentator shut down after her foul rant about sitting between two overweight people on a short flight has received an unexpected token of goodwill from the airline.
Sydney Watson, a right-wing Australian American political journalist who is no stranger to controversial subjects, took to Twitter last month in an unruly campaign arguing: “If you need a seat belt extender, you are TOO FAT TO BE ON A PLANE.”
Her offensive comments came after she was seated between obese siblings on a three-hour American Airlines flight, during which she claimed she was being touched throughout.
She claimed in a lengthy Twitter post she had been “WEDGED between two OBESE people” on the flight, which she argued was “absolutely NOT acceptable or okay.”
At the time, American Airlines responded by saying it didn’t discriminate against body types.
“Our passengers come in all different sizes and shapes. We’re sorry you were uncomfortable on your flight,” the Twitter account for the airline replied.
In a surprising update revealed by Watson on Tuesday, it appeared the airline had a change of heart.
In an email sent to Watson on Monday, a representative said they “sincerely regret the enjoyment and comfort” of her flight was “diminished due to another customer exceeding their seat’s space.”
The representative informed Watson she would have been entitled to move seats had there been an alternate option available on the flight.
In a “gesture of goodwill,” she was issued a $150 Trip Credit.
“I can understand your disappointment with the situation not being remedied to your satisfaction,” the email also read.
“We appreciate you contacting us regarding this matter. Above all, we appreciate your business and look forward to welcoming you aboard again soon.”
Watson posted a particularly offensive reaction in a new tweet that followed the email.
“I’d rather take the $150 American Airlines offered me as a refund and give it to someone who needs a PT or a gym membership,” she wrote.
The saga has attracted viral attention from both sides of the fence, with many saying her plea was entirely uncalled for, while others felt her stance was justified.
“I’ve been touched by tall people, muscular people, just about anyone who isn’t 5’4” and sitting clinging to themselves. Seats are what they are,” one response read.
“Maybe instead you should give it to a charity, and then do some deep reflection. You are milking the humiliation of two people for your own gain,” another said.
Sidney is a dumb bimbo and a hardcore slut, but I’m glad she got her reparations.
No one deserves to have their airplane seat colonized by the fats.
Plus, Sidney isn’t even really that bad. I’m not going to say she’s not a slut, because she obviously is – and a very nasty road dog at that – but she does some good work.
She defends whites, at least – which is more than I can say about most sluts grifting off the right-wing.
That said, Lauren Southern upped the ante where now if you want to be a slut grifter on the right-wing, at minimum you actually have to torpedo black people’s ships in the Mediterranean.
