I swear this is not a satire. I was actually going to write a satirical piece along these lines, but not surprisingly fact turned out to be stranger than fiction.

The reductio ad absurdum argument does not work on left wing liberal progressives. Ask: "Restrict junk food ads on TV for the children? What are you going to do next, ban Santa for being too fat?" Answer: Yes.

These fascist leaf eaters should be told to go back into the forest and bathe in a bog.

Soon we’ll be changing psychological archetypes so they fit the eugenic dreams of pale yoga snots.

But for every 2,000 santas losing that much fat, it will result in another 4 tons of carbon dioxide for every pound lost ending up in the atmosphere - exacerbating global warming.

Right now, every fat person represents sequestered carbon; they should sell their excess fat as carbon credits.

People obsessed with “sending a message” sometimes don’t realize that the language they do it in can carry more than one meaning. Here we have an exhortation to the kiddies to live a healthier life - I’m fine with that - that carries along with it the implication that overweight people are to be marginalized, hidden, improved for their own good. For some that may even be the intended message as well, but I don’t think that’s what Christmas is all about.
