@djwfyi@fosstodon.org I don't actually have an opinion on this myself, but it seems to me that the argument from history is a bit misplaced, because we have historical evidence of various self-imposed, voluntary fasts going back at least several thousand years.

@deshipu@fosstodon.org That's true. I guess in my mind I'm holding a line between the modern scope of influencers pressing people into thinness for the sake of thinness and those who choose hunger for spiritual reasons, political statements (hunger strikes), and the like. I get that the line gets very blurry, though.
