Just so we’re a hundred percent clear anyone can wear makeup and shaming someone for doing it is fucking gross.

Shaming them for being hypocrites is chill tho

[–] solsangraal@lemmy.zip 81 points 3 months ago (2 children)

it's not the mascara itself that people are bashing. it's the wearing mascara while being in the party of mEn CaNt WeAr MaKeUp\

republicans aren't saying anything because they're too busy racisting his non-white wife

[–] originalfrozenbanana@lemm.ee 10 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yeah shame them for being hypocrites but not people for wearing makeup. If you like makeup that’s cool

[–] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Can I make fun of him for how poorly he's wearing it? Honestly, he ain't wearing it. It's wearing him.

[–] tiefling@lemmy.blahaj.zone 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It's the most basic eyeliner. Doesn't even have a hint of cats eye. Smh.

[–] TexasDrunk@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

He ain't got the confidence to rock it like a real man.

[–] Maggoty@lemmy.world 20 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yeah this is the guy going after people who wear make up. So I'm absolutely going to make fun of him wearing way too much.

[–] originalfrozenbanana@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I agree he’s a piece of shit, so why not make fun of the things he’s a piece of shit for and not “lol he’s a BOY who wears MAKEUP and is mean to other BOYS who wear MAKEUP!” It’s a bad look for a group of people who don’t want to be, you know, bigots.

[–] Maggoty@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Okay but that's pretty reductionist.

[–] originalfrozenbanana@lemm.ee 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

What? It’s LESS reductionist than just criticizing the makeup wearing alone

[–] Maggoty@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

He's not a schoolyard bully.

[–] HowManyNimons@lemmy.world 13 points 3 months ago (4 children)

Not sure we can shame people with a furniture kink either. Funny though.

[–] originalfrozenbanana@lemm.ee 9 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Ok first of all there is ZERO evidence that JD Vance has EVER reached completion in the cushiony embrace of a chaise lounge

NONE

[–] xavier666@lemm.ee 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I heard there was a glove involved in the incident

[–] HowManyNimons@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

I heard he was in a Roche Bobois carpark when it allegedly didn't happen.

[–] alquicksilver@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago (2 children)

As someone who has both worn makeup and grinded against furniture in my time, I consent to you making fun of JD Vance for whatever you want.

[–] Korne127@lemmy.world 7 points 3 months ago (3 children)

That's… not how any of this works. With that logic, any gay person can just say "yo, you can be homophobic, I consent".

[–] EleventhHour@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)
[–] Korne127@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago

…okay? If you're alone with other people, you can tell them that you're fine with them being homophobic. But in a public space, you're not the only gay person, and just because it's okay for you doesn't mean it's okay for everyone, so you can't just say that it's okay.

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 3 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Yeah, I kinda hate the types of comments that you replied to. "As an x-person, you can make fun of this person for doing x thing." That's a really bad precedent to set, kinda like black people having blanket "n-word passes" to give out to white people

[–] Korne127@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Yeah. Even if it doesn't hurt you, you're not the only person existing. And it can hurt other people in the same minority, you don't just get to say that it's fine for everyone.

[–] alquicksilver@lemmy.world -3 points 3 months ago

Look again at the community you're in 😂

[–] EleventhHour@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago

Sigh…

Seconded

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago (2 children)

There's plenty of furniture I'd fuck. Check out the shibari lights by bomma

[–] kamenlady@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Love the designers name: Kateřina Handlová

[–] HowManyNimons@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

Sigh...

*unzips

[–] Napain@lemmy.ml 12 points 3 months ago (1 children)

i liked this meme because it can be read as celebratory if you are chill, like we are, but also as mocking, if you are a biggot, like his voterbase. so win win

[–] originalfrozenbanana@lemm.ee 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Idk I find all the memes mocking closeted or queer presenting republicans for being closeted or queer presenting pretty gross. A bunch of people who are suffering because they can’t be out is sad, not funny, to me. Even if those people suck. I can still hate the parts that suck and feel sympathy for the parts that don’t.

[–] modeler@lemmy.world 5 points 3 months ago (1 children)

It is terribly sad - they must live in a world of hurt.

However so many of these people actively try to hurt LGBTQ+ and trans people by inciting hate and changing laws to harm the non-straight. In particular they have been preaching that being gay/trans equates to being a child molester. This is horrific and needs to stop. Exposing the hypocrisy is essential to reducing the harm they are inflicting to real people right now

[–] originalfrozenbanana@lemm.ee 4 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

Fine, then mock them for being hypocrites. So much of the criticism is shit like the Grindr search volume in Milwaukee. What’s the joke - a bunch of gay people came to Milwaukee? They can’t be out? They aren’t who you’d think you were? It’s not funny if you apply it to some other group. It wouldn’t be funny if Republicans made the same comment about the DNC convention.

If you want to mock someone for being a hypocrite, mock them for being a hypocrite. JD Vance sucks in part because he’s a hypocrite, because he wears makeup while criticizing people who don’t adhere to gender norms. To just criticize the makeup alone is not good enough to expose the hypocrisy.

[–] Fedizen@lemmy.world 12 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago)

I have to say the mascara is probably the coolest thing about him. Everything else about this guy is absolute dogshit. DeSantis was destroyed by his own base for using heel shoes. It would be funny if Vance got annihilated by MAGA for being a "makeup wearing soyboy" and not being an empty vessel for corruption and political donors who will say and do anything for power

[–] thorbot@lemmy.world 8 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Take your smug self righteousness and give it to someone who deserves it. This piece of shit would attack anyone who claims that he wears makeup even though he does. It’s not about the makeup. It’s about the turd that’s wearing the makeup

[–] originalfrozenbanana@lemm.ee -3 points 3 months ago* (last edited 3 months ago) (1 children)

Then make fun of the turd and not the makeup? There’s plenty to make fun of. Why are you mad that you don’t get to be a bigot even when the target of your bigotry is a piece of shit?

[–] thorbot@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

You sure do love the smell of your own farts

[–] razorwiregoatlick@lemmy.world 2 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Are we 100% sure he is wearing makeup or is this unconfirmed like the rumor saying “JD Vance fucked a couch”

[–] Mediocre_Bard@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

He definitely did not fuck a couch and is certainly not banned from Ikea for fucking a Friheten.

[–] BackOnMyBS@lemmy.autism.place 2 points 3 months ago

And if he did fuck a couch, that's 100% okay. No kink shaming either.

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world -4 points 3 months ago (3 children)

Makeup and makeup companies promote unhealthy beauty standards and are responsible for a disproportionate amount of microplastics. No one should wear makeup

[–] originalfrozenbanana@lemm.ee 10 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I used to think that and tell my wife that. She told me she wears makeup to feel all sorts of things: strong, assertive, sexy, dignified, powerful, invisible, whatever. Who am I to tell her she shouldn’t use eyeliner to feel strong when she’s got a big meeting at work? If you like makeup live your life

[–] PP_BOY_@lemmy.world -4 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Sounds like smokers who say that cigarettes calm them down.

Smoking doesn't relieve anxiety, not smoking creates it. Same thing applies for people who say they feel unattractive w/o cosmetics.

Outside of something like art performances, there's no reason for anyone to ever wear makeup

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 1 points 3 months ago

As someone who militantly refuses to wear it to work, I appreciate it as an artistic and stylistic choice. It’s never a tool to hide my face or imperfections but rather to express myself at times. And yes sometimes it makes me feel powerful, much in the same way a dress cut just right for my body makes me feel powerful or wearing steel toe boots into a business meeting makes me feel powerful.

The problem is the expectation of it. If you can’t treat people with respect whether or not we wear it that’s on you.

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 4 points 3 months ago

I only use all natural whale oil makeup I'm not complicit

[–] BestBouclettes@jlai.lu 2 points 3 months ago

People have been wearing and using make-up well before capitalism and make-up companies were even a thought in people's brains. It's just a thing humans do, and that's okay.
