I'd say we need one for the kids, too. But, if those kids have guns, we should not provoke the sensitive little tykes.
A) Fuck ICE.
B) Let's mock them for being evil, not for being fat. There's actual reasons to hate them, going "oh haha look how fat they are" just hurts regular fat people.

If I'm running from ICE, I hope it's one of these guys chasing me.
I think you may be forgetting the fact that they tend to just shoot people. I can't imagine shooting someone in the back is out of bounds for this fine bunch.
Nah, they can't find any guns under those bellies π€
Valid, but I doubt these guys are very good shots from a distance. They like to murder their victims up close.
icebergs is wild π internet really never misses with nicknames
Wait, they mean the Gravy Seals? The Fattack Squad? The PlaqueToon? The Blood-clot-hounds? The Infantiletry? The Dive Bummers? The Shillitary? The Krispy Kreme Kops? The Out-of-Breathalyzers?
Donβt forget Yβall Quida, thatβs my fave even tho I spelled it incorrectly.
This made me lol.

to be fair glaciers are probably a more accurate comparison
βFatbergβ it is, then.
Have they tried not being fat fascist fucks?
They can be fat and they can be fucks. Just not the thing in the middle.
But if they are that, I will insult them for all the things.

Pedo Gestapo.
Where are the ICE agents? I just see two gigantic icebergs
OK, Brownsharts
This meme would be better just like:

It's the same picture?
Ugh I feel like I could hear him breathing out of his mouth from 10 feet away.
I'm going to do it even more
Call them whatever you want, but this isn't an actual statement from the TSA.
We know, but it's a good way to spread the idea of calling the fat larpers ICEbergs.
oh phew this clear joke almost fooled me
Gravy Seals?
They prefer βswimming with their shirt on Americansβ
body shaming those you dislike still hits those you like.
This may be an unpopular opinion, but I don't think we should be telling people it's "Okay" to be morbidly obese. It isn't okay. It's extremely dangerous, and a massive resource drain. I don't see a problem with openly mocking and insulting people who have tattooed swastikas on their foreheads, nor do I see a problem with openly mocking and insulting people who weight a full x3 - x4 what their healthy weight is.
Obviously swastikas and obesity are not the same thing. But the point is, I don't think it's a universal taboo to mock people's appearances.
Body positivity should be "It's okay if you're not a super model, there are many body shapes and sizes." Not "It's okay to eat nothing but fast food and twinkies. Your doctor is fat-phobic if they tell you to lose weight."
Well, the bodyshaming is not limited to "morbidly obese" people. https://slrpnk.net/post/35736444
But if you deal with a fascist and your insults of choice is about their appearance... wtf are you doing? There is not better insults for fascists? "Hahaha fat" is the choice? And "fat" jokes hit all "fat" people, not only the "morbidly obese". Body dysmorphia is real. People with eating disorders tend to think that they are fat.
Also I haven't seen a lot of mocking of smokers but the number of smokers is going down... lack of mockery is no issue. People just want to be allowed to be cruel.
And where is the mockery for joining ice? Or do we want them to get fit, instead of stop being part of ice?
You're not wrong. Id add tho that there's a mental health component to obesity that I think makes it more akin to substance abuse than forehead tattoos. But we dont tell people that its OK that they're raging alcoholics, generally, and conversely, maybe interventions would help the morbidly obese, but we don't do them.
So I don't disagree with you, but i dont think making fun of fat people is cool, which is what body shaming really is when youre name calling the Gravy Seals.
I actually fully agree with you, and the point about the alcoholics is quite pertinent. We don't tell alcoholics they don't need to change, and we also mock them for being self destructive.
I also fully agree that mocking does not lead to change, encouragement and support does. However, LACK of mocking leads to normalization. I think support and condemnation are 2 sides of the same coin. We should be supporting those who need it, and condemning those who arrogantly refuse.
And I may be conflating the 2, but I am quite confident that most of these obese ICE racists have no desire to better themselves.
I think it goes even beyond the addiction metaphor. There are people with genetically broken leptin response whose bodies just donβt know how to make them feel full, ever. Addiction is extremely powerful but so is starvation and you really canβt fault people for having this condition.
There are exceptions to every rule. In this case, this is a huge exception.
Likely too much nuance to matter, but in this case, the shame is relative to a fitness expectation for a certain kind of work, not relative to the expectations of wider society.
I would make them run fast.
