I have been lectured to my entire life that the greatest sin in politics is to look down on these cosmically ignorant fuckwits, or to hold them accountable for their decisions. We're just supposed to flatter their Illusions and dutifully repair all the shit they destroy.

This is both accurate, and tragic. What happened to individuality? Natural beauty? Being unique and being yourself? Why do women emulate a "look" that is hideous, clownish, expensive and dangerous? It's just stupid.
