I feel like it's only fair to insult peoples' appearances when they chose to look like that. She chose it several times. Get her ass lmao
plastic surgery is not how humans look, but aliens wearing human skin.
Trans people get plastic surgery too :(
And? There's plastic surgery and then there is the fake plastic look. Not all plastic surgery makes you look like a lizard person in a suit.
I find it interesting that that's the part she cares about, not the rest of it.
she was depicted as a puppy-shooting, Botox-using ICE agent who arrests anyone suspected of being Hispanic. She raids a local production of “Dora the Explorer Live!” and sports oversized, plump lips.
The episode also depicted Vance as an annoying man-baby who gets kicked around (literally) by Donald Trump. Vance responded on X by posting: “Well, I’ve made it.”
We're going to watch it this weekend, so I didn't dive too deeply.
NGL, probably the best response for finding out you're depicted on south park. Still don't want him or anyone even tangentially associated with peter thiel in office tho.
Libertarians are fluffers for Conservative fascism. Where as they'll accuse progressives of being PC-Police, and attempt damaging philosophical criticisms there, when it comes to Conservativism they tend to go soft. Only giving marginal personal critiques, because Libertarians and Conservatives both want to remove regulations and rights. They both want less laws and reprocussions. Less protections for the vulnerable. More markets and moneyed companies in control.
"Slams"
People complaining about "slams" is becoming more annoying than "slams".
... How they paid to look.
Noem paid someone maybe even hundreds of dollars - and took time off work - to look like that.
To quote liberal Amber Ruffin when shown a picture of Kristi Noem circa 2012ish on an episode of Have I Got News For You: "oh my god, she's actually beautiful."
Look, body dismorphia is a thing. Women in public are critizised for aging normally. No getting around that, but that doesn't mean we can just ignore the fact that when ignoring the option of therapy, she asked for "Sad 90's Pornstar Face #44283" at the bargain basement plastic surgeon as a way to win favor in with the GOP.
Liberals don't make fun of women for how they look. Liberals make fun of fools who waste their money to look like mannequins
Yes, yes, it's always the liberals, Krusty, we heard you the first time.
Oh that's rich.
No mention of the constant dog shooting in the episode….
Yeah, but conservatives only see women as stay at home submissive non-voting breeding stock.
I didn't watch the episode, but I did watch a lot of scenes that other people have posted, and I suspect that includes most, if not all, of the scenes where they portray Kristi Noem.
NOT ONCE did they make fun of the way she looks in any part that I saw. Maybe I missed it, like it was in a different part, but I'm sure that she's referring to the same scenes that I saw. I can't imagine that she actually sat down and watched the episode. The only thing they said about her looks was when Mr. Mackey said something like "She looks nice."
It is obvious that Noem has had many cosmetic procedures. I don't think she denies it. The botox is obvious. South Park did make extensive fun of all the cosmetic procedures and botox she's had, but not about the way that she looked before or after the procedures.
I don't think we should accept Noem's rewriting of history to make herself a victim. South Park did not make fun of her for how she looks, at least not in the parts I saw.
All that plastic surgery to look like that?
Wow.
She looked normal before.
That POS can go degrade somewhere else. In any sane country she would be in jail. What a monster.
Facts dont care about her feelings
Never mind the makeup and the cosmetic surgery, she's still a canicidal and capricidal psychopath.
Has she forgotten she hates trans women?
