They’re trimming the fat.

Foids cried and whined until this filter got removed.

“It’s definitely a step in the right direction,” TikTokker Sadie Bass, who previously slammed the viral filter on social media, told BBC.


“I’m happy that TikTok did that, because ultimately social media should be a fun, lighthearted place, not somewhere where you get bullied for how you look.”


The 29-year-old content creator, who hails from Bristol, posted a video this week prior to the removal of the filter, saying it made her “want to scream.”

After catching wind that the filter had been deleted, she rejoiced online, saying she is “beyond happy.”


“So important to recognize the damaging effects it can have, no one deserves to see their body being ridiculed,” she wrote.

She is just one of the many creators on the app who were particularly outspoken about the filter, which was called “cruel,” “toxic,” “disrespectful” and “sick.”

I don't get it, what if a slim person wanted to make a comedy sketch about fat people? Now they have to hire a fat person to act as a minstrel instead of using a technological tool, ironically causing more body shaming instead of less.
