I know this was a stupid college picture.
But what is the joke here?
Being a woman is the joke.
Being a woman means you are weak. Anything woman-coded is bad, you look weak. Anything woman related is at best a joke (haha), and at worst is something that is to be avoided at all costs.
This is also why they have picked transgender people as their current target. FTM probably confuses or enrages them. "Why would you WANT to be a woman? Why would you WANT to be weak? A joke? Women are the lowest gender thing in society. Why would you VOLUNTEER for that? You do not conform to our ridge societal power structure!"
This also leads me to a new term I have recently learned: transvestigators.
From Algerian boxer Imane Khelif to figures like Taylor Swift and Michelle Obama, "tranvestigations" are a particularly bizarre form of hatred hitting public figures.

This is what happens when the in group is so tightly defined, conspiratorial, paranoid etc.
Eventually, the in group start to turn on each other.
Exhibit A: What happened recently with Andrew Tate
It has also left drag fans cackling…

Exhibit B: The same thing happened to Kyle Rittenhouse
I am not at ALL surprised this is what the Qanon people, or former Qanon people, or whatever they call themselves, are currently doing. This is their new Thing. The drops are gone. Q is silent. Search for something. If you find something to pinpoint, you are elevated within their group.
If you can reveal that the person is actually a woman or likes feminine-coded things...that is the worst thing you can do. That is how you discredit the person.
To bring it back to politics, this is why a lot of attention is on these issues. (This is nothing new)
PS - I'm assuming that Vance dressed like this as a joke. I don't mind at all if men want to dress whatever, as long as it's not served as a joke to the group.
