I come at it from a Roald Dahl perspective. If someone mainly thinks ugly thoughts, they will seem ugly no matter what they're like, and vice-versa.

Look at Lincoln, imagine he was a long lost twin who sold candy or whatever and suddenly you notice he's actually an ugly dude from central casting. He makes .Willem Dafoe look normal... But the man is widely regarded handsome.

Look at Ben Shapiro, whose conventional good looks do nothing to hide the malignant dogshit apt to emanate from him at any moment. You can tell by looking at him he's about to talk shit.

It's plain that we shouldn't value people on their looks, but if you really see someone, their worth shines through.
