Woke culture declares war on beauty
American Thinker ^ | 10 Jun, 2024 | Eric Utter

Posted on 06/10/2024 4:01:58 AM PDT by MtnClimber

As WKRG reported, 23-year-old Atmore resident Sara Milliken won Miss Alabama on her third try over Memorial Day weekend. The morbidly obese Milliken claimed her goal was only to make the top 10 after failing even to place in her previous two attempts. Yet, she is now Miss Alabama. A few days later, despite an array of stunningly beautiful, charming, and intelligent women to choose from in the Miss Maryland USA pageant, the contest’s judges awarded the crown to a biological male who goes by the name of Bailey Anne Kennedy. How did this happen? You know the answer as well as I do: wokeness run amok. This is part and parcel of the perverse leftist desire to render the meaning of words moot… and worse yet, to strip everything of any meaning whatsoever. Their desire to excuse their own proclivities and behavior, whatever it may be, impels them to attempt to destroy the very concepts of decency, “better,” and good and evil… that they may not be judged here on this earth. (And, since they typically do not believe in God, they think they are home free.) This is a deliberate attempt to make a mockery of judgements, competition, the sacredness of male and female complementarity, beauty… and God himself. Make no mistake, the Left is engaged in an all-out war on beauty, excellence, and decency. This, in turn, is part of its larger War on Truth.

Its not just the fat chicks with the 100 pound butt cheeks. These goobers have appliances hanging out of their noses and eyelids and really really bad art in ink under their skin.

This is a generation of the ugliest outcast losers ever.

“of disadvantaged people.”

I disagree in particular to the Alabama and Maryland ones.

People rising to the level of entering beauty contests are not disadvantaged. The Maryland thing is a freak. The Alabama lady is morbidly obese due to her own choices. A disadvantaged person would be a pretty black girl from a ghetto.

Hopefully, if we ever revert back to a normal non-woke society, both of these people will be considered embarrassments by each state. It may take 20 years or so to do it, but it will happen.

In the meantime or natural enemies, China and Russia are laughing their asses off over this. I Googled both Miss China and Russia, they are very beautiful women.

Just my opinion.

She was chosen, in order to change the culture, to widen the standards of beauty so that those who aren’t traditionally beautiful can be considered so.

That is my opinion on how the left operates.

"However, that moment comes with a set of responsibilities."

Her's is a body that comes with an "early lid" most days. Ask Joe Biden about early lids.

Its about messing with peoples heads. That is what the left does, that is what the devil does. Get people to say the opposite of what is true. I figured Alabama was going to be among the last states to embrace this folly.

“It’s a glandular thing.” Hogwash! It’s calorie input vs. calorie output. Maybe her metabolism rate is different, but I guarantee you that if you monitored her diet and exercise, there would be no surprise as to how she achieved her weight. Name a contestant on the history of Survivor that gained weight? Look at pictures of women in the 1930’s and 1940’s and compare that to the average waddler in a Walmart today. Men and women today are consumers of calories.

Oh... good catch! So thankful I saw your post before I commented.

More details on the National American Miss pageant:

https://www.namiss.com/faqs/

So then, it's not a pageant like Miss America.

It's a smaller pageant that judges contestants on communication skills, poise and presentation, personality and confidence, and community service.

From the FAQs:

(SNIP)

Is National American Miss a “beauty” or “glitz” pageant?

Definitely not! Our representatives are chosen on the basis of 4 required areas of competition. 30% of the score comes from their communication skills during their Personal Introduction, 30% from her poise and presentation during the Formal Wear Modeling Competition, 30% on personality, communication and confidence in an Interview, and 10% on participating in our Community Service Project. National American Miss pageants, while glamorous events, are not at all like typical “beauty” pageants. In fact, as you see above, all of the scoring in our pageant is based on personality, confidence and communication. Good communication and presentation skills are what we want to recognize and encourage. Braces, glasses, skin problems, varying heights, weights and appearances, are all a part of creating the special and unique individual that you are and that we want to celebrate!

She may or may not be a good person, I don’t know.

But I do know she leveraged the propensity of a certain subset of people and certain political movements and pressures to name someone like her as a “Beauty Queen” and went for it multiple times until she finally got awarded the “prize” for something she isn’t.

And that doesn’t make her a “good” person in my book. Being obese does not in any way make her a bad person. But leveraging a political woke agenda to break down a cultural component to make way for a Marxist agenda DOES make her a bad person.

If someone doesn’t like beauty pageants because they view them as sexist, that’s fine, She, He, or It can do battle and that is expected. And that is what she is doing. Because she can’t destroy it from the outside, she will destroy it from the inside.

I reject the notion she is a good person. She was competing as an ideological candidate.

By calling this thing “beautiful” it has destroyed the concept of beauty.

Just as it has destroyed the concept of pride by tying it to the gay crap group.

A laughing stock.. America has become a laughing stock. Including the government in DC..
We always want to blame the commie left for the destruction of our culture, but we on the right deserve our share of the blame as well. For putting up with it.! We knew what they were up to, and we did nothing about. Now look at us... :(
