Feels like this was made by someone who has never experienced - or even seen someone experiencing - grief?
I lost a friend years ago and at the funeral his father came up to me almost jovially. We talked and laughed and hugged. 10 minutes later he was bawling in the corner. 10 minutes after that he was back to laughing...
The Kirk and Vance families were friends before this. IMO there's nothing weird about this photo
Dawg, I buried my only parent at 15 and was accused by her siblings of not being sad because they hadn't seen me cry- this isn't the 'back and forth' as she's been actively grifting off of his death since it happened. The ONLY person who's shown any real humanity over his death was Owens.
Also, Devil's advocate for Nazis is an icky look, especially ones that are grifting so hard off of the death you're playing advocate for. 🤷🏽♂️
Dawg, your meme is about her being "too friendly" for hugging Vance. Bringing up grifting is moving the goalposts
Making shitty political memes with an obnoxious typeface and no citations is an icky look, especially when it's coming from my side of the aisle. 🤷
Are you making a mountain out of a mole hill for those sweet internet points or are you trying to get a job at The Daily Beast?
I'm not the one that tried to get people fired for not trying to fake-grieve properly. I'm a shit poster online trying not to go coo-coo bananas with the constant, in-your-face hypocrisy all around us.
This is what a 'mountain of a mole hill' looks like -
"But they're worse than me! I'm just a shitposter" is such an awful defense. Great example of how meme culture is a cancer, though. The internet definitely needs more angry-about-nothing text over images
No one is forcing you to be here, dude, I don't know what to tell you? Block me, close your eyes- hell, roll your eyes and keep scrolling.
Stop intentionally interacting with things that annoy you??
Marcus?
Rigatoni pasta.
