so anyway just to clarify why the Poot Lovato meme is awful

making fun of a woman simply because of the way she looks is not funny. it’s misogynistic.

especially when the relevant photo of her was posted on the internet without her consent.

especially when said woman has suffered from body image issues all her life to the point where she self-harmed.

especially when said women told people to stop and was thus made fun of even more because “haha she can’t take a joke.”

it’s also not funny to joke about someone being locked up by their family for a significant portion of their life because that actually fucking happens.

especially since the implied reason for this in the context of the joke would be because of the way she looked when she was born - that’s ableist af.

and if you’re thinking of making a “I know this is you writing this, Poot” joke or whatever on this post then just save yourself the trouble and reveal yourself to me in my inbox so I can block you. thanks.

That second to last bullet is important like….the first time I saw the meme I was reminded of Genie Wiley (article has ableist language), a child in the 50′s that was locked in a dark room for the first decade of their life and was hit by their father every time they made a noise. They’re still alive today living as a ward of the state somewhere in California.
