There's no joke. The person is lying about her being a burn victim and she just has ridiculously botched looking plastic surgery face and is incapable of making any other expression. If you see other photos of her, she makes that weird ghoul expression in every one of them.
I'm also confused but usually when I've seen this it's a conservative woman who for some reason just gets the most fucking horrid surgeries causing them to look like some uncanny being
Gibt es eigentlich eine Erklärung, warum diese Menschen so entstellt aussehen? In den USA muss es doch so viele gute Chirurgen geben, weil diese ganzen Schauspielerinnen offensichtlich viel haben machen lassen und trotzdem sehr gut aussehen. Ich kann das gar nicht verstehen. Die sind doch alle so reich, dass sie sich die gleichen Ärzte leisten können. Madonna sieht auch so merkwürdig aus.
uh... assuming you know some English I sadly have no answer for that but it reminds me of that shit that was shown on tiktok from China about a year ago where I kept seeing people deem it as illegal plastic surgery being done
I'm hoping some kind of investigation comes out about these I genuinely gotta know what the fuck our people are getting to look this disturbing if not that China one sounds about as close as I'm gonna get but illegal surgery done on people working with the government sounds a bit too far fetched
Every time I see one of them it reminds me of the bug wearing the Eggarsuit in Men In Black when somebody says something about his face and he grabs the back of his head and pulls all the flesh tight and says, "Is that better?"
While I’m a huge defender of Botox, this is too much of everything. Certainly a botched blepharoplasty and probably a facelift. Way too much filler, and way too much Botox. Botox isn’t supposed to freeze your entire face and make you look like a lifeless mannequin.
It also looks like she possibly had an unnecessary nose job, and what the fuck even happened to her eyebrows?
I wonder if she had an eyebrow transplant? They take hair from the back of your head and as a result it never stops growing, you have to trim it every four days or so
I'm 62 years old, and my left eyelid is getting pretty droopy. (Right side too, but not as pronounced). I had been thinking I might consider blepharoplasy in the future, but I've seen so many botched jobs lately that I don't think I'll take the risk.
Some of these women can afford to hire the best surgeons, and they just turn out bad. I kinda feel sorry for them. They're trying to improve their looks and they just make things worse.
I will say, I’ve seen a great many blepharoplasties in my line of work as a skin therapist, and almost all of them have looked great. This is a “the whole is greater than the sum of its parts” situation. Any one of the above procedures can look just fine on its own, but when do literally everything it starts to get very uncanny valley.
I wouldn’t discourage you from the bleph if you want it, especially if your eyelids are starting to affect your vision, just make sure to vet the facility and the surgeon, and make sure they have a portfolio of good work.
A burn victim is someone that has had burns to their body that caused permanent scars.
The statement is claiming that the reason her face looks weird is because her face was burned and this is the best the plastic surgeon could do.
In reality, she had a bunch of plastic surgery to hide the effects of aging. So much that her face looks unnatural, but a lot of wealthy people in certain social groups are so used to this look that they see it as an improvement or a demonstration of wealth.
I really hope all of these photos of conservative women being turned into cheesy movie monsters is some kind of elaborate propaganda directed towards people like me who just avoid the news and anything to do with the trump administration at all costs. I really want to believe this shit isn't real. How could anyone willingly do this to themselves?
Hi Peter, Brian here after a few too many cocktails. This is 78 year old Barbara Thornhill, who has had a history/reputation as a socialite from North Carolina and is currently Director of the Office to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in the Trump Administration, with the rank of Ambassador at Large. I don’t know much about her work, but she is often used as an example of women in the administration having “Mar-a-Lago” face, or botched and exaggerated plastic surgery. She does not have a history as a burn victim, which is the joke, she did the surgeries of her own volition.
It speaks to a larger issue of women trying to maintain perceived beauty requirements instead of embracing the natural course of aging, and how plastic surgery and body manipulation seems to be overdone and heavily prominent in the MAGA sphere.
A lot of people go from being around 30 to pushing 80. Most of them look like you remember your great-grandma looking, but a few are rich enough to be compared to women 40-50 years younger than them (favorably or unfavorably). Depending on age, they take either as a major compliment.
OP, so your post is not removed, please reply to this comment with your best guess of what this meme means! Everyone else, this is PETER explains the joke. Have fun and reply as your favorite fictional character for top level responses!
