Because you always research who you vote for.
Here's the synopsis for a local Democrat for mostly irrelevant local position (think of it like, local village official dog-walker or some shit):
Former US military (infantry officer), no obvious Leftist endorsements, many years spent as a Judo athlete, private practice attorney, no significant political experience, adequate physiognomy, official Democrat Party information page made no appeals to Culture War topics, or even really any significant political topics at all. (I live in a pretty red area)
Here's the quote for the local Republican for the same position:
Accomplishments:
Promoted diversity training for [government strata] employees
He's a multi-year incumbent. Has been either an attorney or a politician for the past 30 years. Poor physiognomy.
Just because there is an R in their name doesn't mean they aren't supporting DIE in the government.
CLEAR. THEM. OUT.
Based.
I don't believe in the Pseudo-Science, but it's true that you wear your virtue on your face to a degree.
Incumbent Republican had a literal open-mouthed soyface expression on his web-page. He could have just said, "I bought my Nintendo Switch today!"
The Dem just had a black-and-white, stoic, unsmiling face that looked pretty normal for a 50 year old man.
What you do and how you live reflects on your body.
Wrinkles on your face form where the skin bends. It's clear who smiles, and who "smiles", by their wrinkles. You don't actively notice it, but it's there.
Barring certain medical conditions, most people actively choose their hairstyle. Their makeup (or lack thereof) use.
But most importantly, when people are presenting themselves, in example for a photo on their own website, they're choosing their own pose and position. These aren't camera shots taken from a hidden spy cam halfway in a purse while they're mid-bite eating, it's something they carefully set up and staged with all the time in the world and multiple takes.
Which means that picture is not only the BEST they will ever appear, it is also EXACTLY how they want to be perceived. A soyface isn't an accident. Facing, lighting, expression, they were chosen with care to signal. So why is it controversial to note those signals? Dude spent a lot of money to plaster a soyface online, we should note it.
