Kristi Noem: “It never ends, but it’s so lazy, to make fun of women and how they look. Only the liberals and the extremists do that. If they wanted to criticize my job, go ahead and do that. But clearly they can’t. They pick something petty like that."

It may be very common these days that people alter their appearance through means of plastic surgery and what not. But it’s perfectly fair to criticize this behavior. Of course South Park will grab any noticable feature and go over the top with it, so you shooting your puppy becomes you shooting puppies all the time, and you looking like a woman made of plastic becomes your face collapsing regularly.
Why is it ok to criticize “this behaviour”? How is plastic surgery anyones business but the one getting it??
You sure as shit dont have to hand it to matt stone and trey parker…
Gnome is a cunt with ears. It’s not just ok to bag the shit out of that creature, it’s a moral obligation. Fantasize over something else, craven.
The time to pay soft-ball is long gone.
I’d argue criticising someones looks or how they choose to present themselves is the softest ball there is.
South park is meant to provoke, and that it did, so mission accomplished. Now Kristi Noem is in the news in a negative light, because she’s a bad person. Making fun of her looks is just to get a reaction out of her because its so “offensive”.
The plastic surgery is every tax payers business because we are most likely paying for it.
No you are paying her salary. How much you pay is everyones business, but once the money is hers she can spend it as she sees fit. It’s hers.
Look up how over budget ice is. lol you know she is using slush funds for this shit.
Maybe we’re all too sensitive? Just spit balling here, maybe it’s okay to criticize this aspect of Kristy Noam’s behavior. It would not be okay to criticize someone who isn’t a public figure like her for “this behavior” but she is a public figure and an extremist one.
Treating her the same as other people who get a lot of non-restorative plastic surgery isn’t right because she isn’t like them. She’s a deeply racist public figure who’s needlessly killed multiple animals who’s also have obviously had a lot of cosmetic surgery. She doesn’t represent everyone who’s had plastic surgery.
No, her being extremist doesn’t make it ok to be sexist towards her. Like you should be able to criticise Caitlyn Jenner without being transphobic. Or Milo Yiannopoulos without being homophobic.
But making fun of her getting such plastic surgery targets everyone who gets them. Just like making fun of someone for being fat targets every fat person, like calling someone gay as an insults is insulting towards every gay person. I’d argue her being a nazi makes it even less ok since of all the things you could be focusing on you’re focusing on something that she fully in her right to do. It makes everything else you say easily dismissable and opens you up to accusation of sexism, because it is sexist to shame and try to humiliate a woman because of how she presents herself in public.
Just like how she is now brushing past all the other criticism south park has of her and focuses on the sexist aspect of her portrayal.
This has nothing to do with trans people. The reason someone gets plastic surgery is what people are free to judge. If you were her, would you get plastic surgery? If you say no that doesnt mean you are generalizing or stereotyping all people that have plastic surgery done.
I dont agree that south park was making fun of all people with plastic surgery either, watch the episode, its very exclusively and personally about Kristi Noem.
