The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.

Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.

Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.

90,000 dollars to butcher your own face so that Trumpists will know that you're a Trumpist.
It's like every single day I encounter something and I'm like, "Well, it can't really get any stupider than that." And like every single day I am astonished at how stupid things can get.
In my day we'd just dye our fringe blue and have an earnest belief in human rights.
That article needs more before-and-after photos

Tnx, good link!
From 'normal' to " abhorrently ugly".
At least they are now easy to spot and forever identifiable.
It's like the inverse of the lizard people conspiracy theory.
"Welp, time to get into politics. Better go lizard up."
Lizards as in reptilians. It's become a bit of self fulfilling prophesy.
Snakes and the likes have a peculiar reptilian smell, iirc..
You made me laugh, tnx. But now I'll stop thinking of other weird things to say..
Showing everyone how ugly they are on the inside by fucking up the outside.
Doesn't Bezos' wife have that look? Does that mean she's signaling she's a trumper or she really doesn't know.
I think it means she's shallow and insecure.
Just a little more filler and she can easily hide in the duck pond without raising suspicion.
Fuck, she looks like her jaw could unhinge like a snake.
holy snapping duckshit wtaf is that jfc
Yea, he traded a classy sophisticated woman for that
I imagine one of those women dared to have her own opinions. Vs, yes money daddy, I'll further look like a clown for you.
It’s just bad plastic surgery for people with no taste; nothing really conservative about that but it sure seems to happen a lot in the red cap circles.
Lips, buccal fat removal, some jaw restructuring perhaps and hella facelift/botox.
Yup. It's something they're seeking out. Bonkers.
Remember though, taking HRT and getting gender affirming surgery is “mutilating” your body.
Oh that's why their faces look like that. I always wondered why wealthy republicans have fucked up faces.
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.
when I was growing up we called that trashy. But you do you I guess
I still call it trashy.
fashion trend among American conservative and Republican women
First example: Matt Gaetz. Thanks Mr. Wikipedia, very cool.
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?
Matthew J. Nykiel, a board-certified surgeon, stated the appearance is modeled after Ivanka Trump's appearance.[9] Melinda Anna Farina, an aesthetic consultant, identified the Mar-a-Lago face as attempting to emulate the appearance of Eastern European women.[2]
but there's totally no cult of personality /a
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.
I'm all for it. I get it. They don't want to put a giant Nazi sign on their face.
Then that plastic face look is the next best thing so we know what you are.
You remember how after the war they shaved the heads of collaborators? After the coming war, we should deflate the botox out of collaborators.
Hey I've read this one
This thumbnail made me suddenly realize that Gaetz has Charlie Kirk Face Syndrome. Look at it, it's waaaay too small and they clearly moved the height slider waaaay too low and maxed out the forehead height setting.
What, that they look evil? Yup.
So they literally mar their faces to signal they're Lagos? I know what mar means, but what's a Lago?
Is that like "resting fascist face" or sth?
