We need to acknowledge ugly people exist, rather than saying things like "all people are beautiful"
Ugly people exist and usually, know they're ugly. As do average people. Fake platitudes about how certain people are "beautiful in their own special way" don't really benefit anyone. The goal should be to make it ok to be ugly, and be proud of yourself regardless, and to treat ugly people with the same kindness and respect as beautiful or average people rather than whatever it is we're currently doing, on the contrary, it's degrading, in the same way "special needs" is degrading.
Edit: a little worried this comes off as a proposal and not an opinion and that I probably should have worded the title differently, something like, "It's degrading to call ugly people beautiful" or something? I didn't really take the time to figure out a good way to word this, sorry.
Edit 2 to remove something that I felt came off as unnecessarily mean.
