So? If it's Italian then it belongs to Italians not to anyone on either continent by your logic. And of course you're a pedant too because why not ๐Ÿ™„

I'm commenting on the comments in this thread, like I said, not your meme.

Bunch of doomer fuckwads in this thread acting like the US is as far gone as Russia and there's nothing we can do. You're the fucking problem you apathetic cum socks. Get off the internet, there are hundreds of volunteer groups, community action groups, and local governments taking all the action they can to resist. Either start resisting, or shut the fuck up.

Does it? There's two continents named America, so who does it belong to? No other country on either of those continents has the word "America" in its name. Really stupid thing to be mad about amongst all the very valid things to be mad about.

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.

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?

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.

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.

You must be joking. The great leap forward?

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?
