assshhh!!!!!
I have to say, this does not meet my internal definition of art. I guess I define art as something I would like to display in my home and I would not give this a second look. I went to the web site to look at the picture and I had much the same reaction that you had, I found it very degrading. I took the cartoon as implying that people who have had WLS are lazy bloobs that look like Jaba the Hut. After reading some interpretations posted here I can see how this can be interpreted in a more positive manner, especially if the artist is a WLS person.
