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.
