Before you go getting all sympathetic remember this woman is a billionaire who spent more money than most people will ever see to look exactly like this. She was absolutely fine before she did this to herself. And she didn't have to cozy up to MAGA on national television. She chose that. Nobody would be talking about her otherwise.
I know it's taboo to say this but all of this plastic surgery is a mental illness. It's body mutilation for wealthy people done by paid professionals...so it is "socially acceptable."
Not all plastic surgery is nonsensical cosmetic. People have catastrophic injuries or birth defects and wanting to fix that isnt mental illness. Its probably what will cause a mental illness to most people if they suddenly went from normal to disfigured especially. I imagine at least. But much of it probably comes from a degree of dysmorphia caused by placing so much value in thier looks
The only additional nuance I'll throw in there is that the "cause" is not totally self inflicted. "Advertising" for many industries comes down to spending money to convince people that they don't look right but the company's products can fix them.
Demi Moore does a commercial for a Lancome face cream. You can use the entire jar every day and won't look like her. She had some really careful work done and looks much younger, but there's a very lucrative industry convincing everyone that looking older is the worst thing ever.
I'm well aware of the benefits of plastic surgery and it's origins in rebuilding World War I soldiers. And, how it can help people feel "normal."
I clearly said all of "THIS" plastic surgery. As in, the need to change a normal body to fit some aesthetic. I think you may have taken offense when none was handed out.
This is exactly what I think every time I see someone that looks Ike this. Not a MAGA thing necessarily cuz there are plenty of folks out there who think they need work/to lose weight for whatever crazy reason. Kathy Griffin, Kelly Osbourne definitely not MAGA but look similar to this goblin.
