        If it makes “Hitler” happy and isn’t hurting “not-Jews” else why do you care?

        These kinds of whataboutism is how bad things happen from well-intentioned but ultimately bad things end up happening.

        The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

          I don’t know why I’m bothering to feed the troll, but here goes…

          Hurting “no one” and hurting “not Jews” are two very different things, you do realize?

          Guy says “She’s not hurting anyone”. And your response is “Hitler wasn’t hurting anyone…except the Jews” as though that’s somehow an equivalent rebuttal? What the absolute fuck is wrong with your fucking brain?

            Extreme examples bring to light why whataboutism is so prevalent. Find a better answer than “public nudity never hurt no one” … is not the correct answer.

      Cigarettes, Alcohol, Gambling, Porn, Birdwatching, Hiking, Video Games, Blogging, Youtubing, Racing…

      Absolutely all of these things can be enjoyed, abused, and everything in between. All of them can lead to problems and/or can be part of a fulfilling and happy life.

      You are approaching this with “She’s sick and she did this, disgusting” rather than “she’s sick and this is a symptom of that, what a shame”

      Unless you are this harsh to people who have problems with the other things I mentioned and more, then you should evaluate why this specifically bothers you, it may speak to a preconception you have from a place of privilege.

        Yes but this is obviously a mental illness. Plastic surgery can be great, but when abused like this its feeding a mental illness.

          I didn’t disagree, I pointed out that you’re approaching this with contempt rather than empathy.

          You’re right, but you’re not showing the world you’re right, you’re just showing the world you’re mean.
