Yes, no conservative ever made fun of how Michelle Obama looks. /s

[–] Taco2112@lemmy.world 99 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (4 children)

That was my first thought. How many times have I heard Michelle Obama called a man?

I will admit, I thought that making fun of ICE Barbie’s looks was unnecessary and the GOP counter would be exactly what she said. But, I still laughed because she’s made of plastic.

[–] N0t_5ure@lemmy.world 27 points 11 months ago

Plus she's a horrible person.

Limbaugh called Chelsea the family dog when she was a teenager.

Still brings me joy to know he's dead.

[–] N0t_5ure@lemmy.world 43 points 11 months ago

That's even worse, as Chelsea was only a 12 year old kid at the time.

A person so odious, you almost feel bad for the cancer for having to live inside him.

its always conservatives who shoot puppies in the head

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 20 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago)

and a goat, and her 3 HORSES. another fun fact, one of the immigrant workers saw her shoot the horse, where she dug a gravel pit just for the occasion.

[–] VerilyFemme@lemmy.blahaj.zone 151 points 11 months ago (5 children)

I don't know if the article mentions this, but she said she didn't even watch it.

Which makes it funny that she thinks they were only making fun of her looks, because they were overwhelmingly making fun of her for killing puppies.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 20 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (8 children)

this is practically any conservatives calling thigns woke, never watch trek, or stargate, star wars call it woke, boyz/genV, doctor who too. they only need to hear an characther was gender or raceswapped and they get thier panties in a wad.

Wait I thought South Park was irrelevant and no one had watched it in 20 years just a week ago, now they warrant additional comment? Interesting...

And apparently, JD Vance, "finally made it".

The fact that Noem was more offended at being portrayed as a disfigured mess needing constant botox pit stops, than an absurdly racist puppy-killer says everything about her character.

[–] WanderWisley@lemmy.world 28 points 11 months ago

Yes exactly right. Most conservatives are more concerned about their looks and how expensive their tastes are rather than the type of person they are.

Notice how she says nothing on the repeated jokes about her shooting more dogs.

[–] chronicledmonocle@lemmy.world 26 points 11 months ago

It's because she didn't actually watch it, by her own admission

[–] 3abas@lemmy.world 23 points 11 months ago (4 children)

They hit a nerve, she's super insecure about her look. And no shit, who gets plastic surgery (reconstructive or both defects aside) without being insecure about their looks?

Sounds like Matt and Trey got even deeper under her skin than her plastic surgeon.

Funny she’s seemingly not concerned about being considered a puppy killer.

In the beginning of it all she denied it and I think even had it removed from her book.

Dumb bitch.

[–] ALoafOfBread@lemmy.ml 40 points 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) (4 children)

Are they making fun of how she looks? Yeah, sure. But they're really making fun of the fact that she chose to look like that. It's about the freakish nature of all the people in Trump's orbit. They're like the fucking godhand from Berserk - evil, inhuman, freaky looking, etc.

Its a whole spectacle that I think media is afraid to talk about (sure Trump = orange, but... why?) - it's worth interrogating why all these people get super obvious plastic surgery/fake appearance related things. Trump's crazy bad spray on tan and shitty toupee, giuliani's classic bleeding hair dye, all the various women in the Trump admin with their fake everything, gaetz with his crazy botox and facelift... the list just goes on.

"What's with that?" Is a super valid question

South Park writers are Liberals now?

I mean... they've been making fun of everyone except Libertarians for decades, but I guess in the recent years they've been pretty anti-Trump.

...but Trump deserves it for ruining the Member Berry season of South Park

did she just call Trump a liberal?

[–] Bubbaonthebeach@lemmy.ca 28 points 11 months ago

I tried watching South Park years ago and it wasn't for me. Funny though that many of the more conservative people I know, who embraced the show for years, now think it isn't funny since they are on the receiving end of its humour.

[–] jordanlund@lemmy.world 27 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Always the Liberals? 🤔

I guess she's been disconnected from the last 30 years of... EVERYTHING.

[–] Bakkoda@sh.itjust.works 29 points 11 months ago

Just laugh and tell her to get back in the kitchen?

[–] Death_Equity@lemmy.world 25 points 11 months ago (5 children)

Meanwhile JD celebrates being made fun of on South Park and Kirk changed his Twitter profile pic to Cartman doing Kirk's schtick.

Maybe Noem needs to chill the fuck out.

[–] Funky_Beak@lemmy.sdf.org 18 points 11 months ago (2 children)

Always wondered who the people who thought cartman was a role model were

[–] Death_Equity@lemmy.world 19 points 11 months ago (4 children)

Probably some overlap with Homelander fans in that venn.

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

Noem and Trump have to realize one very important thing.

Matt and Trey don't give a shit and no one is off limits.

This is the puppy she brags about shooting. Immediately after she shot this 14 month old puppy she shot her pet goat because it disgusted her.

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.

[–] Zorsith@lemmy.blahaj.zone 20 points 11 months ago (4 children)

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.

... 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.

Excuse me? Who has been perpetuating the same blue haired feminist drivel for decades?

When I flew back into the country, seeing this dog-killing bitch’s face pop up on all the screens was harrowing.
