People are hyper fixated with others' appearances in this country. While this could be applicable to other places, since I have only ever lived here, I'll just start my rant from here. Americans can't stop obsessing about if other people are overweight/fat, if they bend or outright reject gender norms, and/or being trans. There is an insatiable compulsion in the psyches of many Americans to say horrible and demeaning comments to these "others." Not just amongst themselves or their own hateful shithead circles, but to let these specific "others" know. These brave bullies have to make sure that these "others" need to be made aware they are abhorrent, should stay under the covers, or put a gun in their mouth. That they are unlovable and worst of all unfuckable, which is considered the greatest honor in America besides being wealthy and popular, to be seen as physically desired by anyone. A person being fat or trans really brings out the heart of an authoritarian in the most mediocre and meek American citizen. The policing and surveillance of people's bodies and appearances if you take a step back, should make you afraid of what that could mean for anyone. Especially in the year 2025.
