Of all the forms of discrimination under the sun that these clowns literally take to the streets for, they're missing the most important one: lookism.
There is no greater advantage than being good looking for every area in life. There is no avenue where it doesn't give you an extreme advantage. It basically sets you up for a good life.
But instead of targeting lookism, they talk about fatphobia, which sure is a form of lookism but something that can be changed quite easily. I think this is because in their mind, being skinny is what gives people privilege. They can't really fathom that a skinny 4/10 is living a completely different life to a skinny 8/10. Being skinny is just the tip of the iceberg of "privilege".
They have the concept of "pretty privilege" but they just see it as having an easier time getting into clubs or getting more tips as a waitress, not as a make or break factor in how your life will be.
The reasons why there will never be an anti-lookism campaign from these people:
1. They will never understand it. Issues like racism and classism have a long history, there's are no previous revolutions trying to take down the looks-elite
2. It's embarrasing to talk about people's looks. These people are all typically ugly themselves, so what would it look like if they started tearing down beautiful people for being beautiful? Their failo would make this movement dead in the water. They would look like bitter goblins in a tangible, obvious way. People don't get behind ugly losers who try to make reforms against pretty people.
3. They've made it impossible to begin with to even have a discourse about this because of "all women are beautiful". They would have to abandon that comfortable mantra altogether and for some of these uglies, that's all they have. Breaking that Holy saying would start infighting about who is beautiful and who is not. You can't rise against something if you're divided.
Ironically, the best social justice cause they could go for is to try to even the playing field between ugly and beautiful people (somehow) but they will never take that fight. They will go on and on about race and "fatphobia" until they're blue in the face.
