The difference is that nobody is holding you up as the pinnacle of health, of masculinity, of whiteness, of power. Nobody is making fun of some random dude who shat his pants, we're making fun of all the people who think Trump is some powerful healthy beast of a man. And maybe he is. And maybe men like that should shit their pants. Let the people who love him follow his example here too and walk around with poopy butthole pants

    Yeah but doing those things to someone doesn't make body shaming them not body shaming. Like if that ICE agent with the Yakub forehead were being held up as an Andrew Tate role model for chuds it would still be body shaming to make fun of his head

    I'm not trying to defend Trump here, I just feel like the logical framework for being against body shaming applies here as well and it's interesting to notice the hypocrisy I guess

    I think what you aren't understanding is that we're calling out their hypocrisy. Trump isn't a paragon of human masculinity unless that also means shitting your pants.

    No I mean i get it but like you just said we're "not making fun of random people," but that's the point with anti body shaming stuff, that random people are unintentional collateral damage from what is, to you, targeted humiliation

    I'm in favor of making fun of trump shitting himself btw i feel like I made that clear but maybe not

    I guess the difference is that it's not a big deal for you and me to crap our pants, it's a different thing entirely for the president of the second most powerful country in the planet to do it in a press conference. Same with Biden's dementia: you aren't being ableist when you point out how ridiculous it is that someone with these ailments is president, it'd honestly be more ableist to pretend this is ok.

    That asymmetry doesn't really exist for body shaming. Trump being fat doesn't mean anything more than you and me being fat. Him being gay with Putin doesn't mean anything (well I guess it would be pretty wild if he actually was gay with Putin, like for real, but you get the point; libs aren't trying to actually say anything about the relationship of the two leaders they're trying to get in on policing masculinity like chuds do)

    I wanted to be gay with Putin and all I got were these lousy Soros Bucks.

    Yeah this is exactly what I feel about it too. I've definitely had a few embarassing sharts but I wasn't on live TV with nuclear launch codes.
