"You know who's fatphobic? Your body, your body is fatphobic. How many 90-year-old people do you see that weigh over 400lbs? Zero! You know why? It's 'cause they're dead."
Asmongold shares his views on fatphobia
Asmon continued his rant against the idea of fatphobia, stating that the only person who's over 90 years old and fat is Santa Claus, who is a fictional character.
"Think about the only famous, well-known really old fat person, Santa Claus, and he's not real. That's all there is to it. I'm sorry, but we gotta keep it real, guys. That's the truth."
He then stated that anyone with an audience should be telling them exactly what he's saying, and if not, they are doing them a disservice.
"I think anybody who doesn't say what I'm saying is doing a massive disservice to not only their audience, but to the entire society"
He concluded his argument against the idea of fatphobia by saying that the person he was reacting to can do anything they want with their body, but they shouldn't be defending such a lifestyle.
"You can live however you want, I don't care. She can eat as many marshmellows, drink as much soda, and smoke as many cigarettes as she wants. That's fine, she can do whatever she wants, but do not even for a second try to tell me that it's not bad."
Viewers react to Asmongold's take
Plenty of people gave their reactions to this bold take on Reddit, with some agreeing with him, while others criticized Asmon for living an unhealthy lifestyle himself.
It seems fans are divided on the topic, showcasing that there's plenty more to the greater issue that Asmongold didn't discuss.
