Our Dear Leader
@Miraz Thanks for posting your thoughts, and I totally agree! When I first saw the Liz Truss pic I’ll admit it gave me a smirk of amusement before I scrolled on… but it’s super easy to make anyone look bad just by selectively picking what pictures you use of them (no one looks great 100% of the time), and/or editing them badly. It’s a cheap tactic that says nothing about her policies or her ethics or anything (which seem bad enough, no need to use bad photos to smear her). And as you say, it’s a cheap tactic which seems more damaging against women and oppressed minorities. It’s valuable to remember I should probe my gut reaction a bit more sometimes 🙂
