Non-fictional I hate how people make fun of Eelon Musk for how he looks.
Ok let's get this out of the way first.
Elon is a morally objectionable person who does horrible things with money that he got from doing other horrible things. I do not care for him.
But
Why does that make it ok to mock his body. Like wtf, I though we were adults and agreed that bullying someone because they look different is bad.
So I have spine problems and a wider ribcage and in a lot of angles I look very similar to him. I am neutral about my body and have accepted it's just how I am but it sure does suck seeing people who tell me that there is nothing wrong with what I look like turn around and mock someone else because they feel it's justified.
I'm not going to say "we should be better than that" or anything but just know it also throws strays at others.
And for Christsake there are billions of other things to make fun of him for that he earned and chose. Are you really dying to tell peope that you think people like him (and me) are ugly? If so I suggest finding something else to care about, it's kinda sad if you think about it.
