Theyre Kids - Tumblr Posts

The fat jokes against Cartman are something I’ve seen talked about commonly, this isn’t Matt and Trey sending their fleet out to hate on fat people, they’re characters. How boring would a show be if every character followed the same set of beliefs and there was no conflict?

Also, kids will make fun of you if you’re fat, skinny, have acne, short, tall, poor, rich, have a different religion, different ethnicity, etc. This is because kids are assholes and once again I will say that they are characters and Cartman is in fact fat, he’s seen eating more than the other boys commonly (people are usually obese because they eat more than others) so authors in fanfics shouldn’t be facing scrutiny for writing him the same way that he is in the show.

I’ve seen more people upset that Kyle calls Cartman fat than I have of people being upset over the fact that Cartman constantly mocks Kyle for being Jewish. I don’t really have a problem with this because ONCE AGAIN, THEY ARE FICTIONAL CHARACTERS.

Writers beliefs don’t always reflect in their writing. Do you think everyone who writes a serial killer supports murder? South Park characters aren’t written to be black and white, good and bad. Do you expect Kyle to consistently be made fun of for his culture and not pick on Cartman for one of his insecurities?
