    I have no idea if you’re being serious.

    Tbh I struggle with that myself sometimes.

    But mar-a-lago face is a real thing and while the first instinct is to recoil in horror at what these people have done to themselves, elites have a long history of this kind of extreme identity signalling. And I do think this phenomenon is best understood as part of that tradition.

      I used to call it real-housewife-face, because that seemed to be where the desire to do this to themselves started.

      But is does seem to overlap a lot with visitors or wanna be visitors to that Nazi bar down in Florida.
