    So are we only standing up against body shaming for ugly people? We’re okay shitting on attractive people that might have had cosmetic work done? Are we a bunch of hypocrites that stand for nothing and only react when our own feelings are hurt?

    Boo Lemmy. Y’all can do better.

      The rule is not to punch down. When someone is a billionaire nothing* is off the table.

        I can generally agree with that if it’s something someone can’t change. However: fuck billionaires

          Exactly! Like body shaming fat people because they have no say in the matter.

              But making jokes on a billionaire’s expense is OK 🤔?

      Yeah, why does humor exist anyway 🤔…

      Mu real concern is that you have more upvotes than downvotes.

      No, this is clearly laziness on his part. He has all the time and money needed to get a decent haircut, eat well, and do a little exercise, but simply doesn’t. He has no real obligations to get in the way. His ugliness is nothing but compounding character flaws.

      And after all, he’s the one claiming his girlfriend was initially attracted by his physical beauty, not his money.

        I realize in hindsight I should have worded my comment more specifically. I’m NOT talking about the dude. I’m talking about all the comments at the girl.

        I will never not condone clowning on rich assholes. Nobody gets that kind of money without some form of exploitation, and those kinds of people are fair game.

        My comment was regarding all the other cringe comments in the thread that are saying shit like she’s not that hot anyway, or she looks fake, etc.

      I’m totally puzzled as to why people say she looks bad. She looks great to me. I can’t identify any cosmetic surgery other than maybe a bit of lip filler, and that isn’t even very much.

      Some Lemmy users must have incredibly high standards or have supermodel girlfriends.

        I don’t think a group of FOSS Linux bros are having supermodel girlfriends lol, but anyway…

        I’m not even puzzled as to why people think she looks bad. I’m puzzled as to why people think anything about her looks at all.

        Seems some people here are projecting their insecurities.

        I don’t even care, either. I just hate hypocrites. Don’t throw stones from glass houses.

          I got a post in https://sh.itjust.works/c/funny deleted because of body shaming… but I guess billionaire shaming is just fine.

            I mean, yeah. People can be fat, skinny, tall, short, all that stuff but to be a billionaire you’ve got to willingly horde the wealth of people who you think are lesser than yourself, so fuck them.

        It’s harder to tell with all the filters that exist now…which makes people look like they had cosmetic surgery.

        Anyone with education in facial anatomy can usually tell though. Parts of the face just look “off” with certain procedures.

        For example cheek fillers/implants are very obvious to me. Brow lifts too. They dont line up with the curve of the upper eye socket naturally. Again, filters can mimic this effect, so with this young woman its indeterminate. Not that it really matters, it’s her body, her choice.

        But the point is some of us can tell, but it doesn’t mean we should judgemental about it.

        I mean, not to say she looks bad but she’s certainly not my type. I can’t tell whether it’s makeup, surgery, smoothing filters or ‘yes’ but she’s got a specific look that just doesn’t do it for me.

        I know, I know, everyone says “I like blah blah blah” and it doesn’t matter but I can certainly see why people aren’t digging it.

        Like, she could totally be an amazing person and if she likes the way she looks, good for her, so my opinion literally doesn’t matter. Whether my standards are too high or my self esteem too low, it doesn’t matter at all.

        No, they’re just stuck up and frustrated.
