I’m so bothered by all of the people who are supposedly on the ‘good’ side who use these things against their political opponents:
-
@skinnylatte can't even make fun of their skin color if it's orange?
@skinnylatte @lizzard
Hmmm, well, that's something that I think he does to his skin intentionally with cosmetics for fake tan, right? So it's making fun of something he chooses to do and not making fun of a physical condition he just happens to have. -
Also makes me so annoyed that people like to suggest punitive immigration measures against immigrants they don’t like. Yeah, denaturalize Elon, surely he lied.
I hate that guy. But I know who won’t lose in that type of immigration enforcement: those guys.
Who will lose: immigrants with less power.
Many of the escalations that we are seeing now come from ‘softer’ immigration measures. The whole social media vetting thing came from Dems previously giving in to demands to immigration enforcement. Guess what the other team just did to vastly expand that
@skinnylatte Yes! We can’t win with their weapons.
If you want to get rid of Elon, just keep taxing him until he leaves.

Ah; that's exactly where I draw the line differently than you:
When an evil person does criticism or calls for harm for people with some attribute, like weight, or immigration status, or parent's status, and such. AND *they themselves* are obviously in that class too, then I think it fair to call them out for their hypocrisy.
Generally, they themselves don't care, of course. But the criticism is for other people's ears, to challenge any existing respect.
