Prejudice and discrimination against people who are considered overweight according to current societal standards. Fatism, or weightism, is frequently excused, tacitly approved, and perpetuated on the basis that it is linked to the legitimate health concern of obesity. However, the function of fatism is not health-related. Instead, it is a means to oppress and marginalize an individual based on a perceived inadequacy in their appearance. Fatism can even be a subconscious, internalized bias.
Fatism is also often viewed as a feminist issue, because this form of discrimination is generally applied more heavily against women than men in most modern cultures.

When Bill decided to promote Gwen instead of Margaret because he felt Margaret’s extra weight was repulsive and didn’t represent the company's values, it was a clear case of fatism.

Get the Faoïsme mug.The extremely patriotic, supremist and controlling ideology of The Roman Empire.
Roman facism is the ideology that there's a superior Roman race (ie. the imperials), Romans are demigods who should be worshipped by foreigners, Rome is superior, blonde-barbarians are inferior & should be executed, The Roman Empire should be restored, the Caesars are gods, the Roman military should continously patrol the streets, all Roman citizens should be patriots of Rome & The Roman Empire should be glorified with annual parades.

(e.g: 'Roman facism believes that the Romans are the superior gods of civilization who invented the world & that the Germanics are inferior blonde-haired barbarians who must be eradicated').
