We can make fun of conservatives without misogyny
Crazy, i know
there's a documented MAGA look. it's creepy and peak uncanny valley. based on MAGA women trying to all look the same with surgeries, treatments and makeup.
Body shaming is bad, but accepting this is the opposite of body positivity. MAGA women are body shamed to look like that. it's actually sad.
Yea, the Mar-a-Largo face. I think its uncanny, but very evocative of the conservative mindset. I agree that it shouldn't be normalised, though it doesn't seem to me like the women in this meme have had those paticular procedures done.
I am disheartened how ubiquitous plastic surgery, especially "small" ones like botox, have become.
yhea, I will agree that body shaming is bad. and it won't prevent the reasons people get mody dysmorphia. just that those are the most hateful human beings on the planet, and they openly want me removed from the nation and rip my daughters away. so I genuinely do not care for their feelings. the world would be a much better place with them not in it.
I get that. To me, empathy is a ressource. If you put it into every little thing, you'll eventually run out. I dont think you have to feel sorry for them. Understanding why theyre so fucked up and hateful can put things into perspective, but it doesn't excuse their actions.
Big hugs to you and your daughters 🫂
We're making fun of conservatives being hypocrites and idiots. Like, how it's not racist to make fun of MAGA immigrants voting for Trump and then being deported.
Making fun of them based on the appearance of their wives/the women in this picture
Look, I dont like them. I am not defending them. But reducing them to their looks just because theyre pieces of shit and implying they're turning men gay. I think it's shitty, because it doesnt hurt only them.
Do make fun of them. Make fun of their garbage opinions, make fun of their terrible choices (like those awful pearl necklaces lol)
Loving the diagram. Keep up the good educational work.
Thanks lol :D I dont usually like risk getting into an argument, but ive unfortunately seen this sort of rhetoric too often :(
This is excellent and you are awesome.
So is a woman insulting a man by saying he's ugly also sexist? I'm struggling to see how it's misogyny, honestly. Like I'm not trying to fight or anything, I just don't get how insulting physical appearance can be misogynistic when men can be ugly too. It doesn't seem to be attacking them because they're women, but because their appearance seems to reflect their souls. Ugly. What am I missing?
Fracture has already made some very good points.
But yes, it can be sexist. If the woman's insults specifically target his worth as a man.
The meme is attacking their appearance, and only their appearance, because they are women. I dont really believe in this "looks reflect the soul" stuff. Some people are the absolute sweetest, yet dont meet societal beauty standards. Some people are shit, yet are considered attractive.
I dont know if you've read some comments in this thread, but there's multiple calling them men. Since they aren't beautiful, they have their womanhood stripped away from them.
They aren't beautiful, so they aren't women. Because to be a woman is to be beautiful.
I dont know how much more obvious beauty being tied to a woman's worth as a woman can get.
yea if it's implying that men are only worth being with because of their looks, it's sexist, yea. it's not as sexist because there's not a societally ingrained idea that a man's core worth is in his looks. so it's not like it's equivalent. but it's almost like there are different prejudices to different genders
or have you not heard enough people talk about women like they're worthless because of a perceived lack of attractiveness
But are you?
Who's the butt of the joke here?
"Conservative women are so ugly their husbands cheat on them with guys" - that's the joke. That's the whole joke.
The whole conservative movement is the butt of the joke. They're all in shallow marriages, wear hideous fake costumes, and hate each other. The whole thing is ugly and shallow. The men wear the same clown costume and it's just as ugly. Spray tans and hair gel anyone?
Like, how it’s not racist to make fun of MAGA immigrants voting for Trump and then being deported.
Do you want to get banned from Blahaj instances? This is how you get instance banned from there.
Yeah, some of these comments are super not it.
exquisite. no notes
I think this shall be a thing I now post every time I see something like this.
Them ladies had no idea they were way past Trump's age limit. The poor hags.
You inspired me to do a search I've considered before.
Ivanka Trump is 44 years old and Melania is 55.
I was surprised, and thought that they were much closer
He prefers his women when their age starts with a 1.
I don't think it's about the age as much as it's about being in absolute control.
Look at Stormy Daniels. He knew he could coerce her into sex because she wanted to be on his show.
He'd rather have a 40 year old he could torture than a 15 year old who'd fight back.
I assume that if you’re a woman and a republican, you hate yourself (and other women/girls). You’re probably unbearable to be with.
That lady on the far right is thirsting for that inch and a half smh
I'm pretty sure they're all on the far right.
This post might be too shit for shitpost.
Judge people by the content of their character. Not by their appearance.
We can criticize Republicans ugly policies without attacking their hair, faces, bodies.
When you hate women, men are the natural alternative.
You'd think they'd be a lot more supportive of trans women, given this. Although I suppose maybe it's their way of being affirming.
they still love trans women, but in a handmaid's tale kind of way.
