If by "people", you mean 99% fat chicks that tag their shit for other fat chicks and chasers, then yes, that's the fat movement, no one wants to admit this is a movement with the goal of sliding the standards of chads, all so fat chicks can finally stop pretending they're happy with a fat guy
Guys that try to get in on this movement with the goal of finding an "open" girlfriend find out the hard way how hostile these people are, and demand you accept that your male privilege overrides your fat rejection, and how you're a horrible monster for bringing up the fact that online dating and connections are nonexistent as a fat guy in comparison to a fat girl. If you're a dude in this movement, you're expected to post pictures and be humble, but that's it
Check out Feabie if you want to see what happens when you remove the IG bullshit and get straight to the fat harem mentality. It's entirely a women's movement that only marginally acknowledges fat guys, but will start pulling the semantics out if you list the male-centric woes of being fat. I've actually seen fat girls berate fat guys for pointing out how easy it is to find fuckbuddies as a fat girl, due to the rationalization of "how is meaningless last-resort sex something to be proud of??????", ignoring the fact that they're still not the least-desired of the fat spectrum
