        Humans are quite good at parsing meaning. Typos, edits, autocorrect, dyslexia, all get in the way of perfect grammar but if we can understand it it doesn’t really matter.

        Remove the word “so” and it’s perfectly legible. Clearly a remnant of their original phrasing which they tweaked before hitting submit on the comment.

      Seriously, wtf happened to his face… It’s like flesh and bone was gouged out from between his cheek and ear

        He has RoboCop unmasked vibes. Instead of a human face on a robot body it’s like a human-ish face bolted onto a shit factory.

        Nobody actually knows. He had that only on one side of his face, the other side looked normal.

        Some of the theories is that it’s congenital (basically he was born like that) or that he had so sort of procedure that led to that (botched plastic surgery, removal of salivary gland, some sort of maxillary surgery etc).

        The funniest theory I’ve heard is that he was actually Hitler and that’s the part he left in Berlin when he tried killing himself.

          My wild supposition: inbreeding.

          It’s known to cause congenital defects, particularly to the lower jaw.

      Ah yes, the famous “if you’re beautiful you’re a good person, if you’re ugly you’re a bad person” that is one of the biggest reasons why the world has gone to shit

      How stupid can you be to post this crap?

          It says that if you have good thoughts it will show.

          In other words, that you can tell by the looks if someone is a good person or not. Seems the same to me.

            No, you have it backwards. Bad thoughts leads to bad looks, not bad looks leads to bad thoughts.

            If you appreciate the look you’ve been given, not letting it bother you and ignore mean comments then you’ll be happier person, and that will show. And a happy person will always be beautiful in someone’s eyes (especially your own).

            It says that a person who has good thoughts cannot ever be ugly, whatever its face features. The picture in the bottom shows a beautiful person with a wonky nose, crooked mouth, double chin, stick out teeth, but still not ugly.

            What I get from that is that if you are a good person, aka having good thoughts, you are beautiful whatever your features. It’s a message telling children that it’s okay if they have bad features as long as they are nice. It’s about body positivity and spreading kindness, and I don’t understand why you are trying to twist the message.

            And to add to this, I wholeheartedly agree with this. Look at musk, trump, bezos or zuck. Look at right wing influencers. They are ugly people, whatever makeup / face lifting / etc. they use. Even if they might have very nice to look at faces, I find them all ugly. They frown, they shout, they rarely smile, and when they do they smirk. Having good thoughts, especially towards other people, makes you beautiful.

        It doesn’t?

        Its very clearly saying ugliness isn’t a physical thing but a state of being.

        I assumed it meant being mean, rude, negative in a harmful way then that’s what being ugly is. Meanwhile, someone who doesn’t have traditional markers of beauty who are also positive things like kind and uplifting, then they are lovely.

          It literally says having ugly thoughts over years makes your face get uglier and uglier, and shows a persons face visible transforming into like a fucking witch or something?

          Look it’s not a great book, literally written because he hated beards, and the accompanying illustrations don’t help promote a positive message.

          We can do better than the 80s in social messaging by a literal antisemitic author who routinely mocked peoples appearance in his works.

    Seriously, is that thing on the left a wax figure?
    It’s just so, dead. Dead eyes. The thing is smiling but there’s no life to it.
