Far-right weirdo Laura Loomer has been in the headlines recently for the usual chicanery. After going on a racist tangent mocking Kamala Harris and calling Leititia James and Fani Willis “meritless,” Loomer was summarily dragged through the dirt for her gross, deliberately incendiary language.
At that point, most people would decide to cut their losses and retreat into the background for a while. But not Loomer! She continued to make headlines after being spotted leaving Donald Trump’s personal plane and then allegedly getting banned from that same plane. But Loomer is back in Trump’s good graces now, prompting speculation about the relationship between the two.

But there’s a more important point to be made here, and the gays have wasted no time making it. Laura Loomer, at 31, isn’t just embarrassing herself and everyone else with her racist takes. She also looks like she’s been overdosing on Smilex.

“I don’t like to talk about looks,” actress, comedian, and Decoded creator Franchesca Ramsey explained in a recent TikTok, “but we have to talk about Laura Loomer’s looks. Because looking at Laura Loomer’s face gives you insight into why she is such a virulent racist and self-hating pick me desperate for the approval of Donald Trump.”
Ramsey breaks it down for us and explains why folks making fun of Loomer’s face isn’t your garden-variety body-shaming. “You hate us ‘cuz you ain’t us,” Ramsey says, pointing out Loomer’s desperate need to hang onto youth while mocking accomplished Black women who naturally look amazing at every age.
She also points out exactly who Laura Loomer reminds us of: Jigsaw, the evil gay icon of the Saw franchise.
And she’s not the only one who sees the uncanny resemblance…
It really was a choice to go in this direction…
But wait…we can’t forget another horror franchise she’s clearly taken inspiration from!
Still, we have to admit that Jigsaw was on the moodboard from Day 1.
When they made Laura Loomer, it was basically like that Pepsi commercial where David Bowie creates Tina Turner from a computer. Except in Loomer’s case, instead of putting a spiky heeled boot into equation it was just pictures of Jigsaw.
The moral of the story? Think twice before coming for Black women, and maybe keep your evil mind games to yourself!
