TikTok is a 15-second video-sharing short-form that enables users to make and share films on any subject. The TikTok app has made video creation and sharing more straightforward and advanced. Users only need to capture everything from their daily routines and publish it right away. The short format of the video means that neither making it nor watching it requires much time or effort.
At any one time, a wide variety of trends may be seen on TikTok. Daily updates to the app include brand-new dances, mouthwatering viral recipes, difficult challenges, and adorable pair videos. These are often entertaining trends that show artists having fun and using some of their creativity, but occasionally a perfectly regular video is ruined by the barrage of offensive comments it receives. One TikToker just had a reminder of how angry people can be online when they see something they don't understand.
A few days ago, after a cute video of her and her husband blew up for the wrong reasons, TikToker Alicia Mccarvell called out viewers for showing their fatphobia. Scroll down below to check out what happened to her and how the Tiktoker dealt with this problem.

Following the initial video's success, Alicia posted a follow-up in which she criticized viewers for upholding poisonous beauty standards in the comments
She gave examples of foolish comments left by others who speculated about how she and her spouse met
Alicia continued by saying that it is everyone's duty to shed whatever harmful concepts they have been exposed to, such as the belief that our bodies should be valued above everything else

The initial video by Alicia was intended to be a lighthearted post highlighting her supportive husband, but it ended up making a bold statement about body positivity. While the harsh comments may still have a ways to go in overcoming their fatphobia, I'm hoping that by raising awareness of the problem, Alicia may be able to change the minds of some of them. If you have ever had comparable experiences to Alicia's or have any advice for assisting others in overcoming toxic beauty ideals, please share your ideas in the comments section below. Also, keep in mind that you might not need to say anything at all if you have nothing good to say.
