this post is why people say there’s a misogyny problem here
where’s the misogyny?
Yeah this ain’t it
true, but even if I was heterosexual, I’d rather go with homies than whatever those things are
People. They’re people. Objectionable people with grotesque views, but people nonetheless.
Empathy is the most important part of a person. those people either never had it, or chosen to get rid of it. the reason they look like souless gohuls is because in some very significant aspects, they are.
I don’t doubt they hold ghoulish views, but it has nothing to do with their appearance. They look like older women fetishizing a revolting idol while subscribed to white supremacist ideals about youth and beauty. Describing them as “things” is dehumanizing in a similar way as they would likely dehumanize us. The more ideologically revolting members of our species are still people.
fash should be dehumanized though. they aren’t people. they are way beyond the paradox of tolerance. accepting them is unacceptable. I’m and way shape or form. everyone in the picture isn’t deserving the air they breathe.
Dehumanization is a core mechanism of fascism. It’s not possible to eradicate fascism by using its tools. Your statement also stands in stark contrast with your position that empathy is the most important part of a person.
The problem is, we’re all capable of atrocities, even if some are much more easily convinced to participate than others. It’s an uncomfortable truth of being human. But we have the choice to attack the parts which are actually contemptible - their words and actions. Alienating people based on their physical appearance equally alienates the people who perceive themselves to have a physical similarity, even when they hold entirely opposite views. That collateral damage is neither necessary nor desirable.
do I need to being up the paradox of tolerance.
those women literally want me to die in a concentration camp. any empathy wasted on them is a boon to their fascism and materially hurts those they are trying to kill.
We can make fun of conservatives without misogyny
Crazy, i know
there’s a documented MAGA look. it’s creepy and peak uncanny valley. based on MAGA women trying to all look the same with surgeries, treatments and makeup.
Body shaming is bad, but accepting this is the opposite of body positivity. MAGA women are body shamed to look like that. it’s actually sad.
Yea, the Mar-a-Largo face. I think its uncanny, but very evocative of the conservative mindset. I agree that it shouldn’t be normalised, though it doesn’t seem to me like the women in this meme have had those paticular procedures done.
I am disheartened how ubiquitous plastic surgery, especially “small” ones like botox, have become.
yhea, I will agree that body shaming is bad. and it won’t prevent the reasons people get mody dysmorphia. just that those are the most hateful human beings on the planet, and they openly want me removed from the nation and rip my daughters away. so I genuinely do not care for their feelings. the world would be a much better place with them not in it.
I get that. To me, empathy is a ressource. If you put it into every little thing, you’ll eventually run out. I dont think you have to feel sorry for them. Understanding why theyre so fucked up and hateful can put things into perspective, but it doesn’t excuse their actions.
Big hugs to you and your daughters 🫂

We’re making fun of conservatives being hypocrites and idiots. Like, how it’s not racist to make fun of MAGA immigrants voting for Trump and then being deported.
Making fun of them based on the appearance of their wives/the women in this picture
Look, I dont like them. I am not defending them. But reducing them to their looks just because theyre pieces of shit and implying they’re turning men gay. I think it’s shitty, because it doesnt hurt only them.
Do make fun of them. Make fun of their garbage opinions, make fun of their terrible choices (like those awful pearl necklaces lol)
Loving the diagram. Keep up the good educational work.
Thanks lol :D I dont usually like risk getting into an argument, but ive unfortunately seen this sort of rhetoric too often :(
This is excellent and you are awesome.
So is a woman insulting a man by saying he’s ugly also sexist? I’m struggling to see how it’s misogyny, honestly. Like I’m not trying to fight or anything, I just don’t get how insulting physical appearance can be misogynistic when men can be ugly too. It doesn’t seem to be attacking them because they’re women, but because their appearance seems to reflect their souls. Ugly. What am I missing?
Fracture has already made some very good points.
But yes, it can be sexist. If the woman’s insults specifically target his worth as a man.
The meme is attacking their appearance, and only their appearance, because they are women. I dont really believe in this “looks reflect the soul” stuff. Some people are the absolute sweetest, yet dont meet societal beauty standards. Some people are shit, yet are considered attractive.
I dont know if you’ve read some comments in this thread, but there’s multiple calling them men. Since they aren’t beautiful, they have their womanhood stripped away from them.
They aren’t beautiful, so they aren’t women. Because to be a woman is to be beautiful.
I dont know how much more obvious beauty being tied to a woman’s worth as a woman can get.
But they’re ugly because of specific choices they made to wear what ends up looking like a fascist clown costume. They chose this look. They’re not being made fun of for things outside their control.
The vitriol and anger that led to those aesthetic choices also led to unhappy marriages. That’s the joke as I saw it.
Most people in this comment section are mocking their physical attributes, not their clothes or hair or anything they might have control over.
This meme is directly implying that their husbands would rather sleep with other men, rather than with their wives, because they find them so unattractive.
If thats not your interpretation, then thats not your interpretation, but a lot of other people here read it differently.
I do agree that they make awful fashion choices though
That’s fair I haven’t been reading the whole comment thread. There’s definitely plenty of meat on the meme bone for jokes about the ugliness of the maga aesthetic without it degrading into misogyny, but it’s too bad people are acting that way.
yea if it’s implying that men are only worth being with because of their looks, it’s sexist, yea. it’s not as sexist because there’s not a societally ingrained idea that a man’s core worth is in his looks. so it’s not like it’s equivalent. but it’s almost like there are different prejudices to different genders
or have you not heard enough people talk about women like they’re worthless because of a perceived lack of attractiveness
I asked a genuine question politely, you can drop the snark.
I agree that if the implication that their husbands would sleep around with other men exclusively because their wives are ugly, then it’d be misogynistic. But that’s not the implication of the meme, at least not as I saw it.
These women chose to wear a specific type of outfit, a specific type of makeup, dye their hair a specific way, and get specific cosmetic surgeries to fit into the toxic world they live in. They choose to look like this. It’s a uniform. Nobody is making fun of their bone structure, bodies, etc. They’re making fun of choices they made aesthetically that comedically also reflect the toxic and ugly nature of their politics. The character flaws that led to those choices also led many of them to have shallow marriages of convenience. That is what I saw as the joke of the meme.
it’s snark, but it’s genuine, too. some people really haven’t heard it. but sure, i could have said it better, that’s fair
the issue is that there are women who have these traits independent of if they happen to belong this “costume”. it’s a look, but it falls within normal human variance. in essence, you’ve said any women who even vaguely has traits like this is a ghoul. besides, people should be allowed to choose how they look
it’s also using the bludgeoning of the oppressor on people you happen to have moral standing over. this meme is still ultimately about their fuckability. sure, you may find them (physically) unfuckable because you believe their appearance is a reflection of their morals. but it’s still not OK to reduce women to their fuckability. it’s the same shit people do when they misgender shitty trans people. it reduces baseline respect to privilege that can be revoked. that’s not baseline respect then lol
(aside, i don’t think the “happen to have marriages of convenience” necessarily follows from the outfit. it might, i guess, i haven’t really looked into the marriage success rates of this group of people. but it’s not like average success rates of marriage are anything to write home about, either)
finally, i would hope that the people in this thread who are being SUPER misogynist about it are like… putting you off. i feel like it’s not great if people are supporting misogyny in your not-misogynistic meme!
this could have been captioned “pedophile wives cabal” or something and i think that would have been fine. re: the above “using the bludgeoning of the oppressor”, it’s always worth questioning yourself about whether you’re dunking on them because they’re shitty people or because they’re women who happen to be shitty people
But are you?
Who’s the butt of the joke here?
“Conservative women are so ugly their husbands cheat on them with guys” - that’s the joke. That’s the whole joke.
The whole conservative movement is the butt of the joke. They’re all in shallow marriages, wear hideous fake costumes, and hate each other. The whole thing is ugly and shallow. The men wear the same clown costume and it’s just as ugly. Spray tans and hair gel anyone?
Like, how it’s not racist to make fun of MAGA immigrants voting for Trump and then being deported.
Do you want to get banned from Blahaj instances? This is how you get instance banned from there.
That all looks pretty bannable shitty behavior to me.
I’m making fun of them because they look like the baddies from Terrahawks.
Yeah, some of these comments are super not it.
But what about the people with strongly felt but incoherent world-views, like the ones who voted for Sanders before voting for Trump? They need memes too!
Basically hating republicans for being secretly gay and you feel the need to make this meme about that poor downtrodden class of woman? How are you feeling knowing your going to get drafted and die in the desert? Oh you are not going to be, but someone please think of the white women.
I didnt make this about women, the meme did. And I dont hate republicans for being gay or using grindr, I hate them for being hypocrites about it. Im not sure why you decided to bring up the draft, but if it helps you feel like women are actually the privileged ones, more power to you ig
the joke that conservatives are gay do not make fun of their sexuality. but of their hypocrisy.
I assume that if you’re a woman and a republican, you hate yourself (and other women/girls). You’re probably unbearable to be with.
This picture smells like hot dog water.
She wants his chocolate starfish.
Thirsty for it even
That picture smells like stale sweat and mold.
Nobody asked for this.
Oh, she definitely is!
I actually did
exquisite. no notes
What is it about Trump that these hags find so sexy?
Them ladies had no idea they were way past Trump’s age limit. The poor hags.
You inspired me to do a search I’ve considered before.
Ivanka Trump is 44 years old and Melania is 55.
I was surprised, and thought that they were much closer
He prefers his women when their age starts with a 1.
I don’t think it’s about the age as much as it’s about being in absolute control.
Look at Stormy Daniels. He knew he could coerce her into sex because she wanted to be on his show.
He’d rather have a 40 year old he could torture than a 15 year old who’d fight back.
You’re so kind. I figured he was raping any child at any age. The only thing Trump talks about with a smile is sex so he will take any opportunity for it. Doesn’t need the 1.
That lady on the far right is thirsting for that inch and a half smh
I’m pretty sure they’re all on the far right.
By the next frame I’m pretty sure she’s already halfway into her jump.
I would rather stick my dick in a dirty sewer drain than fuck any one of those women.
When you hate women, men are the natural alternative.
You’d think they’d be a lot more supportive of trans women, given this. Although I suppose maybe it’s their way of being affirming.
they still love trans women, but in a handmaid’s tale kind of way.
Don’t know if it’s because they are all crossdressing men or because they’re ghoulish women both seem fitting
