Don't post this shit.
I'm a girl with plump hairy legs and I'm hot.
i know I'll get downvoted to oblivion for saying this but I don't care; I think this is disgusting. i don't like shaming people for who they are or what they do, or bullying of any kind, BUT i also think it's absolutely apprehensible behavior to engage in a romantic relationship with someone who uses discord.
...apprehensible?..well, like, yeah: folks've had internet-girlfriends since way back when paper-mail pen pals were a thing...
and here i thought the joke was too obvious

No, no, no! Come on! Cooper was right... This guy wants to have sex with me!
"Listen, Mieke... I don't want to arrange any meetings with you, you sick, German freak. So please keep your hands off my genitals, and never write to me again, and don't come to America. Goodbye."

Is the problem that she uses Gnome, or that she uses dark mode?
Doesn't that look more like Windows 11?
Doesn't look like gnome in any way. That task bar looks like windows 11. Gnome doesn't have a task bar. The "bar" of icons on the left are discord servers.
Those are the 2 best things in this image

I don't get it
Isn't it pretty normal not to shave your legs?
I think the implication is that the discord girlfriend was an overweight man pretending to be a woman in order to catfish

Can't rule out that's a close-up of a capybara. Gf is 3 capybaras stacked in a trenchcoat? Rule 1 of the Internet--pics or she never happened.

Hahaha, she's fat. The horror. The betrayal. He thought he had a girl who loved him, but little did he know she was fat. And nothing is more horrific than that. Thank God he found out, he might have started caring about her, like an idiot.
It's a he
I assumed the joke was his "girlfriend" was a man who's been lying to him, at least that was my initial thought from the exceptionally hairy legs.
Lots of people have hairy legs??
Yes, they typically are men though
Seems like the obvious joke to me too...
It's okay to be disappointed if you exchange pics with an online flirt and it turns out they're fat.
It is. It's not okay to post them on the internet so people can mock them because you them unattractive. If she was missing a leg, or had scars from self harm, or burn marks, he probably wouldn't have posted her on the internet so people could join in on his disappointment.

Without context this isn't funny and the most i can get out of it is that it is fat shaming and/or shaming unshaved legs
The context is that OOP got catfished by a dude. The joke is that they were naive enough to fall for it in this day and age.
I think the implication is OP got catfished
I don't like the idea of the word fat-shaming. Of course I don't condone bullying but being so hyper protective about someone being fat just is peculiar to me. When I was fat myself, due to the teasing of my friends (again not bullying) I put in the work and got fit therefore now I'm more healthy. That wouldn't happen if my friends were afraid of not "fat-shaming" me
I mean, that's nice for you, but the difference is that that teasing was coming from the friends, and not internet randos who neither know nor care about you.
Next to nobody who sees that screenshot knows the person in the photo, or whether they're even able to lose weight by "putting in the work".
Also, there's a preponderance of evidence that your case is an outlier, and "teasing" does not improve the lives of its targets.
You never know what somebody is going through, and it costs nothing to be kind.
You're right, I should try and be more kind. Sorry
