people getting cosmetic surgery out of fear of appearing unattractive

people getting Nazi tattoos to prove their loyalty to the cause

These are actually not that similar, even if it's "Mar-A-Lago" face for the MAGA crowd

Just because the MAGA crowd is obsessed with appearances doesn't mitigate the fact that most of Western society is obsessed with appearance as well

Look at Hollywood and it's rich history of grinding actors to paste only to cast them aside the second they start to show wrinkles

    People are getting Mar-a-Lago face to prove their loyalty to the cause. It's fundamentally different than Hollywood's body dysmorphia.

    Mar-a-Lago face is not standard Hollywood style procedures, it is designed specifically to stand out from those types of looks. It's a peacock effect. It's a cultural signifier. It's a Nazi tattoo.

    It's plastic surgery you dingus, you're lost in the sauce really.

    That's the thing about dog whistles, for most people it is just plastic surgery. For most people, 1488 is just a number and the golden sun is just a cool looking symbol.

    Hop in the sauce, pal. It's still warm, and it's delicious.

    and tattoo ink can be used to make something wholesome and cool or something vile

    it's not gender affirmation, it's not whatever the fuck is going on in occupied korea.

    if anything it's more similar to foot-binding than truly elective procedures like the bifurcated tongue fad
