I see it this way; It's never bad to make someone else feel good about themselves It's always bad to make someone feel less than or less worthy of support/love/romantic attraction just because YOU or anyone else who doesn't find said person conventionally attractive, idc if it's 80% of the population or 99% who thinks said person is "ugly". Not you, me, nor anyone on this planet is better than anyone else because they are deemed "attractive" by society. Now someone being a d-bag has nothing to do with whether they are attractive or not, bad people come in all forms and ego's get boosted for sure (and ofc need to be respectfully humbled), but that happens with conventionally attractive and unconventionally attractive people so I don't think giving people support or hyping someone up to feel good is much of an issue, bad people are gonna be bad whether they're "ugly" or "pretty". I think people just need to stop being nasty to other people unprovoked (esp. people they don't know) when it comes to their appearance because one day it's gonna catch you in real time and you're gonna get popped in the lip & you'll deserve it.
