Why do they always have terrible profile photos. Sunglasses and the same dumb expression.

Because they're in the same cult.

Not only is conformity encouraged, but deviating from their group norms even slightly is met with suspicion if not outright fear and hostility.

Plus that's what people who are emotionally stuck in adolescence and/or the 80s think looks cool.

Hey leave the 80s out of this. Some of us from that time period are not terrible people.

True. I was born during the 80s and thought sunglasses were automatically SUPER cool until well into the 90s myself.

That doesn't make me a terrible and/or extremely cringe person, but never progressing from that does, is my point 😉

True. I was born during the 80s Nice. I was a teen/young adult at the time.

and thought sunglasses were automatically SUPER cool until well into the 90s myself. Ha, sunglasses are still cool 😎. Now parachute pants lol j/k

That doesn't make me a terrible and/or extremely cringe person, but never progressing from that does, is my point 😉 Agree 💯.

Cannot for a moment leave a shred of evidence that he even knows what an attractive man might look like.

What an exhausting existence.

Lol I'd just answer I don't know what any of them look like and go on with my day

That's not it their dumb expression, that's their dumb faces.
