UCLA Students Forced To Take Mandatory 'Fat Positivity' Class
Authorized by Steve Watson via Modernity.news,
UCLA medical school is under fire for protecting students to attend ‘health equity’ classes where ‘fat positivity’ is promoted, and reading material claims that the medical word ‘obesity’ is simply a slur “used to execute force on fat people.”
Yes, really.
The Washington Free Beacon acquired the entry syllabus for the mandate course, titled Structural Racism and wellness Equity, which 1 medical expert who has reviewed it describes as “education designed to ideologically indoctrinate physical-activists.”
As part of the requested course, all first year medical students are made to read an essay by ‘fat liberalist’ Marquisele Mercedes (pictured), who uses made up terms like “fatphobia” to argue that the medical profession is whited against fat people, and that trying to lose weight to be more healthy is simply a “hopeless endavor” due to the fact that it is simply a failure that can not be reversed.

The essay titled ‘No Health, No Care: The large Fat Loophole in the Hippocratic Oath,’ claims that weight has become “pathologized and medicalized in rationalized terms,” and that fates are distinguished against by the medical profession, partially “Black, disabled, trans, mediocre fat people.”
Unhinged.
The syllabus states that the essay provides guidance on “resisting entrenched fat opposition.”
WFB author Aaron Sibarium breaks down the syllable, which is replete with utmost Marxist, sex ideology, and critical race explanation positions, in this thread (click through to read):
NEW: UCLA medical school’s mandate wellness equity class teachers students that weight destiny is simply a ‘hopeless endavor’ and that ‘ob*sity’ is simply a slur ‘used to execute force on fat people.’
The full syllabus has shocked prominent doctors—the erstwhile dean of Harvard Medical School.

The findings have been slammed by Jeffrey Flier, erstwhile dean of Harvard Medical School, who warned that the curriculum “promotes extended and dangerous misinformation.”
Flier charges that UCLA “has centered this required course on a socialist/Marxist ideology that is totally inappropriate,” adding that “As a longstanding medical educator, I found this course seriously shocking.”
“This is simply a profundly misguided view of obesity, a complex medical order with major address wellness concerns for all rational and cultural groups,” Flier further urged, adding that indoctrinating medical students with specified “ignorant” notions constitutes “malpractice.”
Earlier this month, UCLA’s ‘Structural Racism’ course besides mandated first-year medical students to sit through a crackpot lesson by a creeping masked up pro-Hamas activist who told them hope to ‘mama Earth’.
In a mandate course on "structural racism", UCLA Med School lecturer Lisa Gray-Garcia, forced students to gag down and Pray for "black," "brown," and "houseless people" who die due to the "crapatalist lie" of "private property."

The Washington Free Beacon reported that erstwhile 1 student refused to participate, a successful associate “inquired about the student’s identity, implying that discipline could be on the table.”

The course besides promoted a civilian rights composite back in January after students were separated into race-based discussion groups, with 1 for white students, another for African Americans, and a 3rd for “Non-Black People of Color.”
It was only erstwhile a Wall Street JournalUCLA moved to cancel the exercise.
Last month, The regular Wire besides published portions of the course’s open socialist syllabus, including units on “settler colonialism” where students were made to read an essay titled Decolonization Is Not A Metaphor that describes the “epistemic, ontological, cosmologicalviolence” of “the settler.”

6/ In the context of a medical school, these materials aren’t just irrelevant — they put lives at risk. Medical students are being thought to disregard science, and alternatively to build conviction towards many of their patients.

This is all just the tip of the iceberg as far as DEI on college campuses goes. Yale, Stanford and Columbia all have akin programs in place, to name just 3 institutions.
Imagine the fallout of this erstwhile today's students become part of the fabric of the workforce and government of the country.
