You should not strive for beauty standards imposed by society, but be happy in your body. That's what the Body positivity movement says. But many of his protagonists die young from the effects of excessive obesity
At the summit of the North Atlantic Alliance in Washington, they discussed global war and peace, primarily how to help Ukraine resist the invasion of Russia. The younger audience, mostly uninterested and uninformed about NATO, could follow the summit on Instagram and Tik Tok this time.
Bytdance, which owns Tik-Tok, has announced that it has no intention of selling the social network after a law was passed in the US, according to which the hugely popular video application would have to be sold or be banned in the US. USA
After the December political campaign on Tik Tok, progressives are still active in communication with young people, while Boris Tadic and Ivica Dačić disappeared from this network.
Tate was served with a complaint of alleged rape and abuse by British lawyers at the Bucharest estate, where he is under house arrest on charges of human trafficking.
"In our practice, we often meet young people who interpret their behavior based on videos posted on social networks. Based on that, they diagnose themselves, most often depression and bipolar disorder, because they recognize some of the symptoms in their behavior," says special pedagogue Ljiljana Marković.
"Every day, through news shows, we are brutally and emotionally abused by the leaders of the system. If we agree to be victims, then how can we explain to our children that they should not agree to that? How can they believe us? Children learn mostly by modeling. By acquiescing, we set a model for our children that they should suffer. I really hope that this society has woken up"
There is quite a battle going on over our data on both sides of the Atlantic. When I say ours, of course I do not mean the data of the citizens of Serbia. Since we are not in the EU nor are we a US state, the protection of our data is, so to speak, collateral. If they protect their own, I guess they protect ours too, although there are no confirmations or guarantees for that
Chinese social network TikTok has been fined £12,7m in the UK for failing to protect the privacy of children under the age of 13. In Serbia, this social network is used by 30 percent of people aged 25 to 34, and the number of children is unknown.
The US government has banned employees from having the Chinese app Tik Tok on their official phones, which has been talked about since 2020 when Donald Trump was president. The same decision was immediately made by the Government of Canada and the administration of the European Union, and the ball will not stop there, rest assured

Overeating is fatal
Tiktoker Brittany Sauers, the first in the mentioned video, died at the age of 28. Her latest videos show a degree of remorse for harming her own health.
Speaking through tears, she addressed her followers in her last video and said that she "ruined her life with food and overeating".
Often describing herself as a "virtual prisoner," Sauers battled type 2 diabetes in her late XNUMXs, as well as an infectious skin disease known as cellulitis.
Her last video, in which she addresses an audience of millions on Tik Tok, ended with her saying: "I want you to know that it's not worth it. Food is not worth your life.”
TikToker Taylor Lee Jun, better known as Waffler69, has gained millions of followers for his videos of himself trying out bizarre food combinations in large quantities, such as reindeer meat and canned ham from the 60s.
As his brother confirmed for foreign media, Li Yun died at the age of 33 due to a heart attack.
The day before the tragedy, he posted a video of himself eating a giant bowl of fruit soaked in milk.
Victims of the HAES philosophy
The philosophical view of medicine, seen by many as a revolutionary defiance of beauty standards that equate thin with healthy, has gone too far.
HAES, short for the slogan Health At Every Size, is a public health framework that emphasizes that all bodies can be healthy, regardless of size, and reduces stigma against people who are overweight.
The idea is that instead of shaming overweight people and forcing them to diet, they should be encouraged to accept their bodies, find exercise they enjoy and eat more nutritiously.
But some say those ideas have been taken to extremes, especially on social media, celebrating crippling obesity while ignoring serious health risks.
Obesity is healthy
The American edition of Cosmopolitan magazine has been criticized for featuring plus-size models in yoga poses on their covers under the headline: "This is healthy."
As part of an effort to combat beauty stereotypes, it also features American plus-size model Tess Holliday - who has a body mass index of over 53, twice the healthy range.
Self-styled "fat activists," meanwhile, not only promote larger bodies as healthy, but reject decades of science proving the dangers of excess body fat, encouraging devotees to ignore doctors who advise them to lose weight.
Renowned activist, "fat studies" professor Dr. Kat Pause, who questioned the links between weight and health, has died at just 42 years old.
She worked at Massey University in New Zealand and also hosted a "fat positive" radio show.
We must not forget about the consequences
Critics of the body positivity movement express their concern that there is a promotion of "toxic positivity", that is, the expectation that we must always be positive regardless of everything, including the harmful effects of obesity on health.
"I believe that body positivity is a good thing, but also that this concept no longer exists in its initial form," nutritionist Aleksandar Matić told Vreme earlier.
"This movement is designed to promote diversity and self-acceptance. This means not only accepting different body sizes, but also different deformities, burns and similar specificities. However, over time, there has been a great misuse of the term and the narrative that people of any body weight are healthy," he explains.
One should, he says, be aware of the potential health risks that obesity carries - greater stress on the joints, greater risk of cardiovascular diseases, elevated cholesterol, and even certain forms of cancer.
"Just because I'm overweight doesn't mean my opinion isn't valuable", "I bought three sandwiches in Mecca, let's see which one is the best", are some of the sentences of famous tiktokers and influencer, which are later, mainly because of the consequences overweight, deceased.
Pushing the boundaries between healthy promotion of diversity and glorification of risky, unhealthy behavior, the so-called "FatTalkers" faced a barrage of criticism, culminating in a video of a girl mentioning that four of them had died due to obesity.
