For a cult that is so transphobic, these figures sure all want to look like Pete Burns.

[–] DarrinBrunner@lemmy.world 5 points 20 hours ago

Laura was pretty before. I wonder if she regrets doing that to her face. I suppose the outside matches the inside now, though.

Kimberly was genuinely beautiful before the filler inflation. Really sad

[–] StarryPhoenix97@lemmy.world 15 points 1 day ago (1 children)

They all were. They made themselves look like fucking plastic and for what?

[–] kandoh@reddthat.com 6 points 1 day ago (1 children)

It acts as a political and social signal. Women embracing this look are participating in a form of political conformity.

This aesthetic is seen as a way for these women to show allegiance to Trump’s movement and to signify that they are "putting in the work" to fit in.

[–] StarryPhoenix97@lemmy.world 4 points 1 day ago

I don't normally say these words about people but, these people have made themselves up like painted whores. Donald trump's preferences are stupid shallow whores. Thick makeup is so disgusting and it only signals that your disgusting on the inside.

They are all gross unattractive people and all this signals to me as a voter is that they are shallow, tribal, bitter, untrustworthy people.

these are people who say you can't have gender affirming care and you must give birth to your rapist's baby because you should accept whatever god gave you. meanwhile they're like "fuck this face you gave me, god, i can't make money with this I'll have some doctors fix your shit for me"

"You should be happy with gods graces, unless you are republican and need to make yourself look like a toy some child melted with a magnifying glass to appease your one true orange god"

[–] NikkiDimes@lemmy.world 6 points 1 day ago

Oh, that's because the rules aren't for them, they're for people they don't care about, like the poors.

Getting a face like this is a message to MAGA that you're human garbage and will be loyal to the ranks.

face lift?

Guilfoyle clearly also had rhinoplasty

[–] Adderbox76@lemmy.ca 24 points 1 day ago (3 children)

For the same reason that the "Real Housewives of 'X' or 'Y' do it". Because it's a visible affirmation to themselves of how rich they are. The fact that they can afford to "stay young and beautiful" is something that they are better than us peasants for.

MAGA, following the lead of Trump, have a very very gaudy idea of what it means to be "rich". It's all gold plated everything and showing your wealth as obviously as possible in every possible situation. Someone once said that Trump is "a poor man's idea of what a rich man looks like". And that's pretty accurate. To Trump and his MAGA followers, wealth is to be flaunted as a show of power.

Because Trump has a type. And that type is Howard the Duck.

They all look hideous, I normally wouldn’t say that about another person, but these freaks chose to look like this.

It really is like a movie where all the bad guys share a style so we know which ones to root against.

It's the 21st century version of the full-face covering, the stormtrooper helmet.

The federal government really has been taken over by the Legion of Super-Villains

What on earth makes people think this is a desirable look? It’s grotesque. Like literally, in the classical art meaning, grotesque. Like living gargoyles. And many of them were actually beautiful before this butchery.

[–] Manticore@lemmy.nz 120 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (19 children)

It's largely incidental.

Soft-tissue cosmetic surgery doesn't last. They're foreign objects in the body, so over time your body tries to break them down. Lip filler slowly diffuses around the bottom of your face, for example. Botox paralysing muscles affects strength and elasticity.

So it's a cursed treadmill. You can't stop getting surgery once you start. A single surgery will look worse than your unaltered face if you only have one, so every few years you have to get it again.

But.. all the old stuff is still in there. The muscle damage accumulates. The filler accumulates, and is impossible to remove. You might remove some of your own tissue to 'reshape' as it gets more advanced, but many just 'top up'.

Either way, you are permanently altered. They don't choose to look like this, they choose to make minor adjustments to look younger/hotter/etc that slowly turn them into this.

This is all my own opinion and observations. Feel free to disagree:

Rich people are like all of us. They constantly feel this absence that they can't quite fill with material things, no matter how hard they try. They just have a lot of money to try more and more of those things. It's like compulsive gambling. The next spin will be the jackpot, I just know it!

The problem is they have too much money and don't know when/how to enjoy what they already have. Eventually, the dopamine they get from new and shinny things wears thin and they need to find more or something new to get it again.

Why do you think their current objectives are aimed at dismantling society and regression to earlier eras? They've gotten to a point where nothing makes them happy so they think society is the reason. They also want regression because many of them have fond memories of their childhood and associate the time period with those pleasant feelings.

Unfortunately, the problem is in their head. We're all just along for the ride. Even if they are successful at tearing down society, and even if they somehow come out of that time on top, it won't last. Then they'll die having destroyed the planet and countless lives chasing a fictitious world comprised entirely of a fleeting hormone in their brain.

People on their deathbeds often cite similar regrets of focusing on shit that doesn't matter, while letting the things that do matter wither away. It's why I don't like to participate in a lot of the same things, at 40, that my peers do, and why I never have. I enjoy the journey and don't feel there was ever a destination. It's why the attitudes of some with power upset me. I don't want to be a part or their sickness, yet like most of you, I have no choice.

I hate it here.

Laura loomer looks like a wax statue gone horribly wrong... and also comes to life in a horror movie.

[–] billwashere@lemmy.world 13 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Why do I always think of Jigsaw when I see Laura Loomer?

[–] pyre@lemmy.world 8 points 1 day ago (1 children)

because jigsaw's mask is what her doctors used as a mold to make her face

They are desperately trying to look good enough for Trump to give them a creepy grin and a quick grab of their ass.

Loomer looks genuinely unhinged in her 'before' photo. Is a shame regardless.

[–] dogs0n@sh.itjust.works 9 points 1 day ago (5 children)

Probably has to do with societal conditioning to be stand-out beautiful as a woman, I'm sure everyone feels some type of body dysphoria.

I guess when you have the money, and you see adverts all the time about successful surgery, you fall into the trap and become a victim.

its called the mara-a-lago face. right wing talking heads have to look increasingly like "male gaze" females, in order to be in positions like a fox talking head, or trumps inner circle. conservative voters dont like to see old bats.

[–] brem@sh.itjust.works 28 points 1 day ago

If the "male gaze" is attracted to plastic duck lips and sunken eye sockets shaded in expensive bat shit, with foreheads like a full bag of curdled milk...

Yuck. Nevermind.

Did they have gender affirming surgeries?!

[–] otacon239@lemmy.world 136 points 2 days ago

They actually look human in the before pics. Glad to know they got adjustments to make it obvious that’s not the case.

[–] gonf@lemmy.world 57 points 1 day ago

Imagine hating yourself so much that you're a woman and decide to be a Republican.

There's your answer.

Top right looks straight out of the purge

[–] gnuplusmatt@reddthat.com 87 points 2 days ago

this is probably the gender affirming care they should be concerned about
