    My half-baked theory is that many right-wingers don’t have any sense of aesthetics at all. Instead, they perceive signifiers. Which is why so many of them like ugly tacky garbage, as long as it looks shiny and new and expensive.

    Plastic surgery can be a signifier – if it’s obvious plastic surgery. That’s where “Mar-a-Lago Face” comes from.
