Don't kink shame, but this is actually a funny and unexpected political cartoon.

[-] Diplomjodler3@lemmy.world 78 points 1 month ago

That's not kink shaming, that's hypocrisy shaming.

[-] nexguy@lemmy.world 44 points 1 month ago

We know kink shaming is wrong but I'm starting to feel like we should be kink shaming in this situation. A puppy shooting kink seems too far for me personally.

[-] Grimy@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago

What's next, necrophilia?

[-] JayleneSlide@lemmy.world 40 points 1 month ago

Absolutely don't kink shame. But when a person's political affiliation actively kink shames and marginalizes all people not cis heteronormative, the gloves are off.

[-] gnutrino@programming.dev 11 points 1 month ago

From what I understand they've been basically estranged for several years and certainly she's been enjoying the world's least secret affair with her chief of staff since at least 2021 so I'm a bit wary of assigning her political positions to him.

Are you allowed to start dropping N bombs if you meet a MAGA person of color?

Are you allowed to be ableist if you meet a wheelchair-bound MAGA?

Ah, yes, the kink-shaming of... being wheelchair bound? What? This has to be one of the weirdest straw man fallacies I've ever heard. Care to give that another try?

[-] BillCheddar@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Yes, you are.

Do you imagine people lose the right to express themselves every time you disagree with that expression?

Don't Ritz shame me lol

[-] Lileath 1 points 1 month ago

Just say that you want to use slurs, lib

[-] BillCheddar@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Against the Nazis?

I'll use any weapon that harms them, including goddamn slurs. In doing so, I use their hate against themselves.

You don't want to do that? That's fine. Not everyone wants to win.

It also explains why you spend your time fighting with liberals instead of the fascists you claim you hate but just can't bring yourself to ever say mean things about.

Is that something that her husband has been known to do? Admittedly, I don't know much about Noem, nor her husband, but I didn't think he was the one making this a hypocritical situation.

[-] AFKBRBChocolate@lemmy.ca 7 points 1 month ago

He apparently has a thing for huge boobs, including his own:

Unsatisfied with simply appreciating other people’s breasts, Bryon attempted to create his own. “You turn me into a girl,” he texted one woman. While posing for photos he sent to the women he hired, he seemingly shoved inflated balloons into his tight shirts, with the knots serving as makeshift (and egregiously misaligned) nipples. He also posed in turquoise leggings and pink bike shorts, both of which may well belong to Noem or another woman in his orbit, unless they were purchased for the specific purpose of cross-dressing.

Without agreeing or disagreeing, I’m just pointing out that the person you replied to didn’t say that these individuals kink-shamed, but that their political affiliation does. The contention seems to be that kink shaming is fine as long as you do it to Republicans, because their party is not accepting or respectful of the spectrum of human diversity.

[-] jaybone@lemmy.zip 3 points 1 month ago

One might also ask, if someone has this kink but they are not Republican, should they also feel shame because of this?

[-] scarabic@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

Yes that’s a fair question. I think it’s hard for a leftist bystander not to feel shamed. Similarly, we don’t hurl sexism at Republican women just because their platform tends to be anti-woman. Like I said, I am not agreeing with the contention, just explicating. If anyone asked my opinion, I would say that disagreeing with Republicans doesn’t make everything permitted. But then there are those who consider them Nazis and bring out the whole “punching Nazis” thing.

Unexpected from two years ago.
