See my reply to sibling comment. I’m not advocating for political correctness, I’m certainly the exact opposite of that more often than not. But I also feel it’s entirely unnecessary to shame people of a particular appearance in this context, “ugly people” is sufficiently specific to get the same point across you’re trying to make with “uggos”.

I think I was mistaken in my assumption of good faith.
