TIL about the “Mar-a-Lago face” a bold plastic surgery and fashion trend popular among American conservative and Republican circles. It’s characterized by “detectable” facial modifications, including exaggerated Botox, visible fillers, extreme tanning, fake eyelashes, dark smokey eyes, and full lips. The look is often seen as a status symbol and a way to signal political allegiance, inspired by figures in Donald Trump’s inner circle. The trend is so distinctive that it’s been described as a “visual shorthand” for wealth, power, and identity within these groups.

My god! It works.
BRAZIL!
Snip snip! Slice slice!
I can’t wait for this to take off amongst the rank-and-file.
Is that why noem looks like that?
I’m genuinely curious, when someone has a face and lips full of filler and implants and whatnot, when they get a really good solid punch in the face, like proper wind-up and full shoulder and torso twist slug in the chops, does it pop them like an overripe zit, or does it dent them like a ball of playdough?
There are true scientific breakthroughs to be made in this area, for sure.
It’s like straight out of American Psycho.
This is why I think trump had mild stroke followed by a quick surgery to hide the effect.
I for one support their right to gender-affirming surgery.
there already is very little distinction between gender dysphoria and body dysmorphia, and now to add onto that there is also politica fascistica and body stultitia
Is there anyone finding it pretty looking? Besides Trump of course.
Looks wierd
Remember though, taking HRT and getting gender affirming surgery is “mutilating” your body.
Trt and hgh are fine, how else are you going to look like mini Rambo?
This is gender affirming surgery. But I suppose that’s your point.
Oh that’s why their faces look like that. I always wondered why wealthy republicans have fucked up faces.
eyebrow lifts, botox to the face, cant show signs of aging, because its not “strong looking”
Showing everyone how ugly they are on the inside by fucking up the outside.
I’ve been saying this for a while. It’s not that these wealthy women think their carved up faces look good, it’s that they look expensive. They know all the procedures, and the costs, so when a friend shows back up to brunch after 6 weeks, with a new face, they know exactly how much she spent on her new mug.
Regular people can’t participate in this game, so whenever anyone sees their weird face, they’ll know how rich they are.
Yeah it’s conspicuous consumption.
Just like Middle class people try to show off money/status buy having luxury cars.
Ah, so lead paint and lice infested powdered wigs all over again.
Yeah, stuff like this makes me wonder if the peasants of the that time thought the rich looked ridiculous when/if they saw them…
Oh, count on it. I have a degree in history, and I have always tried to look at history through the eyes of real people.
We tend to put historical people on pedestals, but the thing to always remember is that people have been people, for as long as there have been people. You can go back to a community of literal early human cave dwellers, and you would find all of the same personality characteristics that we see today - love, hate, anger, greed, ambition, duplicity, ignorance, intolerance, kindness, jealousy, empathy, disingenuousness, criminality, avarice, perversion, corruption, courage, cowardice, etc.
So if we see those powdered wig wearing dorks as ridiculous clowns, you can absolutely count on the fact that the people of the time thought the same thing.
Ah ritual body modifications in order to get favor from the God. Doomsday cult we deserve.
I wonder if they think of it as an upfront cost of permanent marking that’s clearly visible.
You know, the reason members of MS-13 get knuckle tattoos that clearly state MS-13.
What, that they look evil? Yup.
