Plastic surgery and fashion trend

I can’t fathom the levels of self-hatred necessary to disfigure yourself in order to please some assholes who couldn’t give a damn about you.
It starts with some psychopathy with a splash of self doubt. Apply liberally over a need to use others as props and rungs for personal gain and you’ve got the basics that they all seem to share.
Apply liberally?
*neoliberally
That’s interesting. A more consumerist view of beauty and the rejection of the self in order to have a standardized look.
Conformity+! It’s transhumanism for people who want to conform more to their ideal generic aesthetic under a traditional hierarchy while being against others using transhumanism to feel like their authentic self.
Ewwwwwwww…
If conservatives want to look like the joker, far be it from me to stop them. But I sure don’t understand it.
Conformity is one hell of a drug.
Very coincidental timing on this. I was just eating at a restaurant and saw a woman that had the “Mar-a-Lago face” cosmetic surgery look. Despite being in the south, I don’t actually see a lot of these people out and about in daily working-class life. So, it’s still pretty jarring when it happens.
Seems like most people who get elective cosmetic surgery (especially on their face/head) prefer subtle adjustments that would otherwise go unnoticed. Then there are those who want it to be clear and obvious because it’s a status symbol, which demonstrates they have means to afford it.
In a way, that does sort of track with the idea that conservatism is about in-groups (laws protect but don’t bind) and out-groups (laws bind but do not protect). It’s important that people clearly and easily see you’re wealthy and privileged, so that you don’t have to worry about those pesky rules applying to you. What’s the point in spending car loads of money on your face if people can’t tell?
The eventual look will include the addition of horns to fully match their personalities.

Those rubber lips are probably used as a repellant. Which woman would want to kiss such assholes?
