@ColdLightOfDay wrote this very high IQ comment about Elon Musk being called out on his former omega self:
This makes me so fucking angry. You can increase your standing through artificial means like plastic surgery, but you better hope no one finds out what you used to look like. You will have the new status you’re enjoying rescinded, and all your accomplishments since becoming good looking retroactively revoked as people begin to understand you are not a member of the genetic aristocracy, and are rather a bourgeois imposter who should know his place, and is unworthy of adultion even from the peasantry.
Elon Musk was ridiculed and attacked by a starlet on Instagram because she found out his old pics where he was balding and weak-looking, and deduced he had had hair plugs and took steroids.
In this world, the contempt that "old money" had for "nouveau riches" has completely disappeared. However the last remnant of feudal thinking, "natural beauty" vs "artificial beauty", still stands very strong.
People will hate your guts if they think you have tried to escape your inborn ugliness, and it's more than about jealousy. In all my life I've never seen any positive comment on cosmetic surgery in the media. Humans hate "fakers" in general even though going through PS takes more effort and courage than merely being born.
