The screaming sound you're hearing is me, after reading one too many Jesse Jackson / Charlie Kirk comparisons [View all]

Comparing Saint Chucky to Jesse Jackson is sort of like comparing Britney Spears to Aretha Franklin.

They're both women. I think that's where the comparisons end.

The discussions of what could be done / what should be done to honor Jesse Jackson are all shrouded in "WHATABOUTISM."

"What DID WE DO to "honor" Saint Chucky?"

("Doesn't mean we have to do the same for Jesse Jackson" )

"What did we NOT DO to "honor" Saint Chucky?"

(Well, if we didn't do it for a major political figure like Chucky, you can't POSSIBLY expect us to even CONSIDER it for Jesse Jackson)

ENOUGH.

For FUCK'S SAKE, ENOUGH.

Any time ANYONE IS MURDERED, it's a TRAGEDY.

But lighting an eternal candle and making Kirk the "standard bearer" of how we should and should not pay our respects is DISGUSTING.
