The working masses appear in all shapes and sizes. How would you feel if someone was ruthlessly attacking the appearance of someone who has a resemblance to yourself, say that if you were a balding male with a receding hairline and people that you agree with and generally get along cordially make fun of trumps sons for their receding hairlines and do nothing but attack them for physical traits that coincidentally align with your own physical traits. Would you not feel slighted? Wouldn't you wonder if those you are working with are judging your physical form in the same manner as they judge the enemy?

We must fight for the liberation of the working class, and to help join our ranks and feel welcome, we must cast aside our discrimination for the other. This means fighting against racism, misogyny, ageism, xenophobia, homophobia, trans-phobia, discrimination against the disabled, and to struggle against the chauvinist lies of the capitalist class.

Because attacking someone for their looks is criticising them for not adhering to your particular standards of attractiveness. Dismissing and attacking someone for the way is constantly used to put down queer people, fat people, disabled people, alternative people etc. These standards come from misogynistic and racist ideas of what attractive people look like, that is skinny people with white skin and white features.

When you attack someone for looking a certain way, you attack anyone who looks like them. People deserved to be judged for their actions and beliefs, not their presentation. Attacking someone's appearance enforces the idea that your appearance needs to be pleasing to others, and if it isnt, you deserve to be degraded, which is extremely harmful to so many people, especially queer and trans people.
