I'm in a lot of these circles and usually it's exactly how it works.

You see a fat person, someone says they're beautiful.

Do you A: call them ugly to make them feel bad

or

B: keep moving.

The basis of body positivity is to help folks have less self hate while being like "wtf dude, don't be a dick" to the people constantly criticizing them.

I don't think body positivity is needed for that, just manners. Is there actually a problem that is being solved by body positivity that can't be solved by just being polite?
