Usually I'm all for uncanny ugly stuff

But there is something so genuinely annoying about how they look that makes me cringe so hard its actually a visceral reaction. I don't know if it's because 90% of them make eye contact at the veiwer (my autism hates eye contact), or that most of them are such mean-spirited characatures (the anti-trans ones in particular) that it immediately disgusts me or what.

It's like I can smell the intent to manipulate with stereotypes and it immediately rage baits me.

I think it's a combination of them both being unpleasant to look at and the the picture usually making them look like they're getting all up in your face, they're meant to recreate the vibe of an unpleasant person with no respect for your personal space.
