A SIZE 24 “fat activist” has been told by vile trolls she should be “raped and killed” because of her body.
Danielle Galvin, 26, has hit back at nasty social media users who slammed her online for “promoting obesity”.
The woman, from Queensland in Australia, has accumulated 100k followers on Instagram, where she posts images of herself to raise awareness of the discrimination “fat people” experience.
Speaking to the Daily Mail about her mission, she said she began her account as a “direct response to the easy way people could find eating disorder content on Instagram”.
The social media star continued: “I decided to advocate for those suffering with eating disorders in larger bodies. It has consistently grown since January 2013 and has been a steady flow of people finding my accounts and joining our community.”
However, as her profile grew, she also face severe trolling and mean comments.
Danielle – who said she had previously sought help for depression and anxiety, triggered by a constant obsession for losing weight and an eating disorder, when she was younger – revealed: “I have had people trolling my accounts for years and taking videos of me having fun dancing and putting them up on a fat hatred YouTube accounts and Reddit pages.
“[They post my] photos filled with thousands of comments about how I should be raped and killed. In the beginning it used to really get to me and I would cry and let those comments affect me.
“While it still makes me angry and sad that other cowardly humans do this to others on the internet the positive impacts and connections I have made it worth it. You learn to delete, block and move on.”
She also fought back at claims by some social media users that she “promoting obesity” through her “fat activism”.
Referring to the trolling she has received on the matter, Danielle said: “It’s bulls**t. Simply living in our bodies doesn’t promote anything.
“The people who say this are ignorant to the fact that regardless of the diet culture we live in fat bodies exist.
“I am not promoting obesity – everyone has their own bodily autonomy to do what they want with it. Do those who work too much, promote stress? Do people who have a glass of wine, promote alcoholism?

Hayden says: “I don’t have a model’s body, but I’m not one of those crazy girls who thinks that they’re fat. I’m OK with what I have.”
Nicollette says: “I don’t like diets – I see it, I eat it! I believe in eating healthily with lots of protein, vegetables and carbs to give you energy.”
