Kyle Clark is a Colorado treasure. I watched his show almost every night since 2018 until I moved out of Colorado. He is witty, insightful and just the right amount of sarcastic. I hope he is still on air when I finally go back home
These news sites have gotta be purposely using photos where she looks like a blowup doll.
It might just be difficult to get a photo of her that doesn’t look like a hooting gibbon.
You’re thinking of MTG
I literally was, in addition.
DJT’s makeup artist.
I couldn’t quite figure out what color her skin was supposed to be. At least she feathers hers in and doesn’t like like she was hit in the face with a cream pie.
“I want to look like a parody of myself.”
WTF is with those eyebrows!?!
They look like giant fake caterpillar stickers or something.
Respectfully, I think there are plenty of legitimate criticisms we can make without resorting to making fun of her appearance.
Yeah but it’s fun!
No. She’s an idiot and she looks stupid.
If it was something about her appearance she had no control over, then yeah. I agree.
But she made herself look stupid, and I’ll call her stupid.
This comes off as a really sexist opinion. No one needs to change their appearance just because you don’t approve of it. Bodily autonomy is a human right.
Sexist? What does her gender have anything to do with making fun of a persons stupid choices?
Check your own sexism if you think anything in my comments have anything to do with gender inequality.
Yes, bodily autonomy is a human right. It’s not like I’m advocating for laws against her eyebrows.
Although she’s free to do what she likes, she will still suffer the consequences of general pubic opinion when you purposefully make self look like a clown and being laughed at.
If it was something about her appearance she had no control over, then yeah. I agree.
You’re implying that because you don’t like her appearance and she’s capable of changing it to be more pleasing or acceptable to you, it’s okay to belittle her for it.
That’s right up there with “you should smile more” and “you’d be so pretty with a little bit of makeup”.
Again, you’re still arguing from the standpoint that I’m making fun of her natural eyebrows.
Which I’m not.
We both think that she’s an idiot. Why does she have to look stupid? If some right wingers were talking about Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez this way we would find that repugnant.
It’s gross that you are getting downvoted. Lemmy users still have a lot to learn when it comes to debating effectively.
No, we can make fun of it if it’s crafted. Those eyebrows aren’t natural, they’re penciled. Face paint is fair game.
I don’t know, there’s nothing morally wrong with her makeup and face. If she happened to be a leftist but otherwise looked the same, I doubt we’d be rushing to the comments to mock her style. This is alienating to women who are like minded to us but have a similar sense of fashion to Boebert.
Normally, one should not mock someone’s appearance. But, I think fascists and nazis are excluded from this ruleset.
Mocking someones appearance is like dropping a bomb. You might hit your target but this shit has a radius and so you might also hit innocent people.
People who might be already hurting and are insecure. And hurting those people because you are not clever enough to come up with something precise is weak.
Hitler’s mustache is now so closely associated with nazis and fascism that we would rightly mock anyone who unironically kept their facial hair that way. Lauren Boebert’s eyebrows don’t feel like they deserve the same treatment, since it is very normal for many women with leftist values to keep up their appearance in a similar way. The eyebrows are not the problem; her beliefs are.
poor Charlie Chaplin.
“… I’m apologizing for you, Kyle Clark, for getting video and releasing that and people seeing it in a very private moment.”
lmfao… these dipshits always try the uno reverse “no u” response and it literally never works. Reminds me of when MTG told a BBC reporter “you’re a conspiracy theorist”, cursed her out, and then stormed off. Boebert is just the pathetic screeching version of this instead of the roid rage version.
It’s not a private moment? It’s the audience of a musical production.
I agree, and the footage was from security cameras in very much so public places. That block of text was a quote.
No worries, I totally understood your position. It’s just always shocking how Repubs feel so comfortable blatantly contradicting documented reality.
It’s just always shocking how Repubs feel so comfortable blatantly contradicting documented reality.
I think its because Repubs believe everyone else contradicts reality, so they’re just doing what everyone else does. They here something that is real, but supports a liberal position. They believe reality is contradicted so they feel no shame in making statements contradictory to reality because they believe its a level playing field. They’re wrong, most of the time, but that doesn’t stop them.
It’s just always shocking how Repubs feel so comfortable blatantly contradicting documented reality.
Because their voters don’t punish them for it.
Al Franken was run out of the Senate because of the appearance of impropriety in a staged joke photo.
Republicans lost over 60 court cases about the “rigged” 2020 election, and yet they’re still gonna nominate Trump again. He lied about Hillary, he lied about the wall, he still lies about the economy, but none of that matter because Republicans want it to be true. That’s what you get with the “feelings over facts” party.
It probably works for more than a few gomers - “oh look at Beetlebert, owning the libz by turning the tables on that biased, unfair moderator!!!111”
Kyle is so good in these confrontational situations. I wish more people got to see him but broadcast news is losing viewership…
That dude seems too good for local news.
I’m a big fan of loudmouth grandmas who sweat red meat so if she’s in so am I.
TBF if I were running for a public office that oversees civil rights, infrastructure, military, and a national budget and a debate moderator was asking me questions about a public sex act then I would also be a little peeved.
That said, taking an unbiased stance with people like her is an impossible task from the very beginning.
From her very own “Contract with Colorado”:
Leadership. I am a strong conservative with principles that I will always stand up for. I’ll hold myself accountable and you can, too. I can be reached at Lauren@LaurenforColorado.com.
If part of your campaign is specifically about being principled and holding yourself accountable, a sex act in a public space is absolutely fair game regardless of the venue in which the question is posed.
“I don’t believe there was disrespect. Things were absolutely taken out of context.”
The old out-of-context handjob in a theater. Who among us hasn’t been taken out of context in that way?
Context was the brand of her date’s pants.
Are those the new all season fashion condoms by Latex?
My favorite part was at the end, when he simply ignored her and moved on.
It’ll be nice when she loses her seat. Some unwatchable “news” network might hire her, but eventually she’ll fade into obscurity, which is where she belongs.
she’ll be around, like Sarah Palin
Not a news network, she will be on OnlyFans.
Am I not supposed to be using OnlyFans as my primary news source?
OFN: The Truth Laid Bare.
Gives you a hand when you’re down in the dark.
Reminds me of that Naked News show from years back
honestly OF news is probably better because there’s less advertisers.
She can just transfer her escort profile over there.
That unwatchable news network might well be CNN to show the world just how “balanced “ they are.
Here’s the frame from the video showing her giving the finger to the staff, that’s she’s denying.
She was simply giving directions to the restrooms and utilizing her longest finger for visibility
Hehe
I cringed so hard the inside of myself is on the outside and the outside is in the inside. I am now extroverted. Nice to meet you, we should hang out
Can’t argue with that logic
As a cringetologist I have to inform you, that you actually turned yourself into a black hole and emerged from a white hole in this mirror universe.
Congratulations, you are now extroverted and trust me, you will need all the friends you can find up in here.
Lauren Hoebert would argue about the color of the sky if a liberal said it was blue
I guess she doesn’t know what “expected level of privacy” means law yet. She will though if she tries to pursue it. Anything outside of a bathroom or private owned business you can’t sue someone for filming footage as you can’t expect privacy. Or maybe she knows this so caustic words is all she can think to do.
I wouldn’t imagine even a privately owned business would qualify for privacy. I don’t expect any privacy when I’m walking around in Walmart.
Ok so for any of you confused about what would be an expected level of privacy while recording people in public with a cel phone:
The person working the back office of Walmart crunching numbers where customers aren’t allowed has an expected level of privacy.
The people using the bathroom in Walmart also have expected level of privacy.
The people in the changing room has an expected level of privacy.
If you were caught with a cel phone recording in any of these circumstances you could be persecuted for violating privacy.
If however you’re walking around on the main floor of Walmart recording a person looking at the price on a can of beans, you’re safe from legal prosecution as far as privacy laws (although that isn’t to say you are safe from being charged as a stalker or harassment in a certain context) .
And legally you could record what cops are doing out in public.
It’s about public access. If the public is generally allowed in a space, you have no expectation of privacy in that space. Anyone can have an eidetic memory, which is as good as having a camera in their hand. If they can hear it, see it, or reach it from a public space, you can’t consider it secure.
HOOO-WEEEE look at her go
I love how some people have ‘private moments’ in public. It’s like we don’t matter on their planet.
