    Holy shit there’s a lot of angry fat American people in the comments.

    No-one is mocking them being fat. We’re mocking America for having such a shit culture and food regulation that lots of people end up with this problem.

    It’s not funny to mock a specific hungry kid, but you can make jokes about famine.

    You shouldn’t trigger someone’s personal traumas of rape, but comedians can joke about sexual assault.

    I think blurring their faces would’ve made this less a joke and more shaming. So idk what the issue is.

        I mean, I apologise if it came off like that. I didn’t exclude the chance of angry fat non-American people though, but that’s kinda on you (and the other comments that may actually joke about fat people, not just you) , since I think we’re making fun of America, not obesity.
