I don't like grave dancing. I kept silent when Kirk was killed out of respect for his family. I kept quiet yesterday out of respect for the Cheney family. But when they pull this shit, the gloves are off.
First of all, although the first response was brilliant, it should have been, "Jesus tried to stop the BLEEDING, but forgot there was a hole in his hand." It evokes better visuals, plus you could modify the statue to better represent his final moments.
Eh, I had another one, but I think I need to workshop it a bit before it's ready for prime-time. It's about how a future generation might interpret this statue. There's potential there, I think.
That's all I have for now. I'll be back to mock this right-wing glurge further if I think of anything else.
Kirk is one thing. He was a giant asshole, but he believed what he preached. And no child deserves to grow up without their father. In that respect, I have some sympathy for the family.
Cheney was just another level of awful, horrible person. He believed in nothing but furthering his own goals, eg power and money. He plundered and raped the Middle East for personal gain and knowingly lied about every pretense. And his family are all old enough to know he was a terrible person. Fuck 'em.
To quote a great man, "I mean, say what you want about the tenets of National Socialism, Dude, at least it's an ethos."
Kirk was a grifter, he didn't believe in shit. Neither does his wife, who live tweeted her grieving process and immediately set her sights on JD Vance to move up in the world
He died to what he stood for - political violence
His kids don't deserve any of this, but my compassion is busy with kids who are being held at gunpoint or missing meals
