The left treating this like the right treated the Sandy Hook parents.
Grief is just a weird private thing. You might not get to see when it hits someone. Different people do it differently.
We're adaptive. We evolved to deal with death pretty readily.
EDIT: I'm specifically talking about the right being suss about videos of parents laughing with police. They were used to start the rumors the parents were crisis actors and not grieving "correctly". Same thing. You can't police grief.
The Sandy Hook parents were private individuals who had no desire to be public, and who were then relentlessly attacked by the right with bald-faced, abhorrent lies about their children.
Erika Kirk stepped into the spotlight the moment Charlie Kirk died and started giving speeches and hosting events and fundraisers. And while the left thinks it's really weird how she seems really unperturbed and happy throughout all of this, the Sandy Hook-style attacks are again coming from the right in the form of fucking Candace Owens.
Oh it’s DarkCloud…
Are they always this deliberately stupid?
The private thing: a sequined suit, fireworks, and a stadium rally
What a pathetically disgusting lie. This one comment right here destroyed the fuck out of credibility, comrade.
Excuse me while I attend my mourning racism fundraiser with grief pyrotechnics. Everyone deals with it differently; I deal with it via fame and money!
Yikes. MAGA can still surprise me over just how fucking stupid they are. I mean, the differences in treatment could not be more obvious.
Thanks for reminding me to look up how to block someone.
