Progressives today have abandoned all sense of personal responsibility in favor of victimhood. Case in point: Plus-size activist Jae Bae.
Not content to demand that airlines provide extra free seats for obese fliers, she’s now demanding that Uber and Lyft ride-share service companies provide seat belt extenders for plus-size passengers. From the Daily Mail:
“Every time I use a ride share, I’m forced to go without a seatbelt because no belt extenders are available. This is a common issue for many plus-size individuals,’ she wrote in the caption of the video.
Chaney wrote that she always brings a universal seatbelt extender with her on rides, but they often don’t work despite being advertised as ‘universal.’
She added that companies such as Uber and Lyft should reimburse drivers for the cost of seatbelt extenders, which go for as low as $12 on Amazon.
‘If each driver carried at least one seatbelt extender specifically fitted for their vehicle, this problem could be eliminated. Safety for all sizes SHOULD NOT be optional,’ she concluded.”
Here’s my favorite part of the story: “She continued: ‘This isn’t just inconvenient—it’s unsafe. It should be mandatory for ride shares to provide at least one seatbelt extender per vehicle.”

You know what’s unsafe, Jae Bae? Your obesity.
Maybe it should be mandatory that Jae Bae take a little personal responsibility for her own actions.

Obese activists and influencers increasingly will be less of a problem because of drugs like Ozempic, and because more and more of them have died while relatively young, from their morbid obesity.
“Callejas 503,” a “plus-size influencer,” just died at age 37. His family said he had “no known health issues.”
One look at him and you know that’s not true.

I wonder if this young woman understands the meaning of the word “narcissist,” because it would certainly seem that she feels the whole wide world should be looking out for her. Much better to just sit down and shut up, and spend some time thinking about how YOU can change your own situation, rather than how the rest of the world can accommodate your situation.
Gee whiz, if only I had a mustache and beard, I could qualify for the Miss America pageant.
Pigs.
Ok. So, this lady needs a full-length mirror, a scale that will weigh/stand the weight of over 300 lbs or more., and an insurance actuary table of death rates for morbid conditions. How about she carry her OWN seat belt clip on for uber and air travel instead of making us all pay for her proclivities? I’d love to lose weight, but I’m not going to charge my neighbors for it.
