    I think it’s just taking it too far.

    That, and chasing a certain ‘aesthetic’ the ultra wealthy like I guess (giant lips in particular).

      giant lips in particular

      This is what I don’t understand about it. There’s a good way to do that. DSL are a thing, but these examples are just bad plastic surgery.

      That’s the thing – this ‘aesthetic’ they’re chasing is the ugly stick version, and I strongly feel it’s because nobody in their bubble are willing to tell them they look like fucking homunculi. They pay people to tell them they’re gorgeous no matter what.

        Actually I think there’s a lot of awareness?

        I interacted with a lot of, uh, private school moms growing up, and breast implants (even when they were impractical or bad looking) were definitely a social expectation. There was some plastic surgery too. Many were aware, but it’s like a ticket for entry.

        These people are way above that level (including Laura Loomer who is a mega rich celebrity), so I bet it’s just more extreme.

          I was the kid of one of those moms in the late seventies. I think ‘awareness’ was very relative.

          I think you’re right, anyhow.
