Then again, there are a lot of “hahaha fat people are funny because they are fat lol lol lol” jokers that desperately need some better material.
I just think they already have plenty of … material
Congratulations for latching on to one of the last acceptable groups to be bigoted against. You should feel good about yourself.

Meh don’t make fun of groups. Waste of time.

If you are going to make fun of people, do so for things that are their choice, or are changeable.
As in:
You CAN make fun of people who use Facebook, because they can choose to not.
you CANT make fun of people of a certain ethnicity because they didn’t choose it and can’t change it.
Making fun of obese folks is a mess because at the root of it you are making fun of a mental health condition, or a socioeconomic condition. Indeed all humans, regardless of any other factor (such as medical condition or wealth) will lose weight day after day if you consume less calories than you burn. But the reality is people can’t stick to that for a million reasons, and when you make fun of the obese you are making fun of THAT. Essentially “hah to are so fucked in the head that you are trapped in an uncomfortable and unhealthy body”. Not so funny when put so bluntly.

Have you considered eating less?
If you’re fat and it does not come from health conditions or medicine: Lose weight, fatty! It’s unhealthy and no, you’re not happy to be fat.
Disclosure: I am fat and it does not come from health conditions or medicine.
I think it’s just something people are sensitive about, and understandably so. Most obese people (by choice; i.e. self admittedly just have a bad diet and sedentary lifestyle) I know are never really offended by memes and consistently express a desire to do better. Fact is fixing the problem is genuinely difficult once you pass a certain point, as it requires a dramatic lifestyle change. Anyone who says that is easy is full of shit.
I avoid jokes like that mostly because it feels like punching down on people who are not happy with their health/weight and struggling to fix it. Especially when it’s the typical low hanging fruit, it’s just not fun when the joke makes me feel like kind of an ass.
Also it’s not like we’re unaware of being fat. Like, no, Kevin, I don’t need your terrible joke to tell me I’m overweight and should lose some weight. I own a mirror. The “let’s make fun of fat people!” crowd always seem to think they’re giving us some divine fucking insight.
If you are a 3 dimensional corporeal being, and you grow beyond your desire, limit intake nutrients to a rate below daily usage to reduce size.
If followed, this will work for all beings who have mass and abide by the flow of time
Aww, is someone butthurt that their post got some critical comments?
Actually yes my butt hurts, it have been 4 times pooping today, wiping 🧻 is my major concern now (it is currently the 5th time).
My vegan ass dealing with results of a ultra high fiber diet every day for years:
Don’t you know, fat people can’t be made fun of. It’s the skinny people who are funny, see!
