#did they miss the ''beauty doesn't equal goodness'' ted talk?

I haven't really bothered to pay too much attention to the antis, but people keep calling Tommy's actor ugly and it is just such a strange thing to do. Like. Is that your best argument? Do you realise you're mostly making yourself look bad?

First of all beauty is subjective. You might not find a person is attractive, but that doesn't make said person objectively speaking ugly, so jot that down.

Also do you make a habit out of calling people you don't like ugly? Or is it the other way around, do you just hate people who aren't attractive to you personally?

Even if you were right (you're not) and the actor was too ugly to even look at (he's not) - why would you make fun of people over their looks which are out of their control? Do you always measure another person's worth by their outward appearance?

What an arsehole move. That is grade A bully behaviour. Are you a middle school mean girl or perhaps the cardboard cutout antagonist of a cw teen drama? Do you need a hug? What is going on in your brain?

Tbf Lou calls women fat and ugly so he shouldn’t dish it out it he can’t take it

Okay, how many of the standard tumblr ted talks have you missed? So far we have "beauty doesn't equal goodness, likewise ugliness doesn't equal evil", "don't judge people by things outside of their control", "using problematic behaviour in retaliation doesn't make it less problematic" and "even if the specific person whose looks you're insulting >deserves it<, other people with the same physical traits will see it and feel hurt".

You say: "Oh but he did first!" Okay, so now there are 2 body shaming cunts on the internet. Body shaming is never okay. Ever. What's not clicking?
