It's fun to talk about conspiracy theories but for me it's much more scary to see humans being this distorted and disconnected from reality that they see this look as beautiful. Also the kind of people that chose or let this kind of people to get most powerful positions in their country. Therein lies the real horror...
It may be apocryphal but I heard men started wearing the bottom button of their jackets unbuttoned because Henry VIII was so fat that he couldn’t get his closed over his stomach and men around followed suit so he wouldn’t be singled out and embarrassed.
I often wonder if the people who maim their faces like that truly like the look, accidentally go too far, or are just doing it to fit in with everyone around them looking like Pennywise disguising himself but his heart’s not in it.
Edit: I’ve been corrected that it wasn’t Henry VIII, but Edward VII.
