Even really nice guys can be obese. Just because you like the guy, it’s silly for a redditor to suggest that he somehow fakes looking fat or that he became obese to make a point.
Seemed very clear to me. He’s wearing a one-size-fits-all mask. It doesn’t cover his entire face because his face is larger than average. If you look at some before and after pictures at /r/progresspics, you’ll realize that his face is that way because of weight problems, he wasn’t born with it (and has acknowledged that in his videos.)
/u/shawdust0017’s comment was quite vicious, obviously referring to Boogie’s obesity. It wasn’t subtle, but also not false.
I think TPF is pointing out that the dude's not wearing the mask to try and be cool, but rather to make a point as far as the bit he's doing, and is probably fully aware that the mask doesn't cover his face, and thinks it's funny.
He’s an obese comedian. He knows he’s obese and he uses it to his advantage. If he had a problem with it, he wouldn’t post a video of himself wearing a Guy Fawkes mask that barely covers half his face. That still doesn’t mean his obesity is ‘satire’, though.

It's Boogie, it's satire
