But while Nicole’s hypocrisy put a few noses out of joint when the Dear Instagram Models video went viral, one of her latest videos titled “Dear Fat People” made her the top Facebook trending topic earlier this week, when YouTube chose to pull her account as a result of the negative backlash she received.

By now you have likely seen the Dear Fat People video created by Nicole Arbour (YouTube star/comedian). “Fat people made that up”, the Ontario native says in the video. “That’s the race card, but with no race”. Do you really think that if enough of you hashtag something that is bad for you, it makes it okay?
“Fat shaming is a thing”, Thore said.
Thore, who has polycystic ovarian syndrome, also emphasized that “you can not tell a person’s health, physical or otherwise, from looking at them”.
Whitney Way Thore, who appears on TLC show My Big Fat Fabulous Life, issued her own YouTube video in response to Arbour’s rant. “It’s the really nasty spawn of a larger problem called body shaming that I’m fairly certain everyone on the planet especially women has experienced”.
Comedian Nicole Arbour chose to talk about obesity and failed rather horribly. “This idea that shaming us will make us behave better is just ludicrous”.
After her account was temporarily suspended (it was taken down on 5 September and reinstated a day later), Arbour took to Twitter to protest against the action and labelled herself “the first comedian in the history of YouTube to be censored”.
A comedian who criticised overweight people has sparked a row over censorship on YouTube.
YouTuber, Nicole Arbour, is known for her honest and controversial opinions.
Arbour began to respond to the criticism, calling the video a “trap” for “trolls and white knights”. All I can say is, everyone has struggles with their appearance sometimes, and highlighting insecurities and blaming the state of someone’s weight on plain ignorance is not the answer. “She complements regardless of the developments of as soon as are like physique positivity however that movie didn’t remove so she believes, with shaming people since that’ll get attention”. You don’t know if they’re depressed or suicidal or if they just lost 100 pounds. You don’t know, ‘ Whitney says.
Arbour shuts down all of the hashtags that support body positivity by talking about how ridiculing fat people, saying the only reason they use these messages is to “unplug their arteries”.

But you will eventually be kicked out of the club, and when that happens, you may find yourself grateful to those of us who have built a new one.
