“The grief / of what hasn’t yet happened—”

“When, in the course of development, class distinctions have disappeared, and all production has been concentrated in the hands of a vast association of the whole nation, the public power will lose its political character. Political power, properly so called, is merely the organised power of one class for oppressing another.”
Francisco Nicolas

When thin people post bikini pics on social media like “Fuck photoshop this is what a real body looks like” I understand but I also find it like..funny because you’re a size two/four and even with stretchmarks your body type is still the ideal? And there needs to be some acknowledgement of that?
And like as a thin person who’s struggled with body image/eating disorders I understand but also still need to recognize my/our privilege? Or even just remaining conscious that that kind of body is a lot closer to the standard than many others and you still get material and social benefits from that, even as you deal with your own individual issues.
