@ahimsa_pdx@disabled.social I am of two minds about this. In principle I fully agree but this is a man who made it his life's work to criticise others for their appearance and is relentless in his mockery and (attempts to) humiliate others which, to me, makes it fair play to return the favour. It's not the evil part that validates it, it's he doing it himself (and he has for decades) that does it. That said, particularly what you reference is something many others may struggle with and feel embarrassed about. To constantly bring it into the spotlight is not helpful. My focus would be on those parts of his appearance where he made deliberate choices - such as his 'complexion' and 'hair' (though when I talk about him I tend to stick to his words and actions).

    @thisislieven@c.im @ahimsa_pdx@disabled.social The thing is, you KNOW Trump would mock the hell out of anyone with that same problem. And at the same time he has to hate that people know about his problem. It's not mocking his continence issue; it's mocking his hypocrisy and jabbing him where it hurts. But if it hurts people with continence issues...well, I have family members with that problem. I could end up that way myself, eventually. On the third hand, I'm not saying anything like that to THEM!
