Were judged by are actions and what we did in life. Dieing does not make you a better person.

      Same, for the statement “They say good things happen in threes.”

    I will speak ill of the dead, I will speak frankly about the life they lived and if they or their family or their supporters are ashamed of it then that speaks more of their values than me speaking about their misdeeds. I get not focusing on someone’s failings but not remembering someone for their intentional actions is a disservice to their legacy and our future history.

    If they’re ashamed of his legacy then why didn’t he or they try to right his wrongs?

    I have a collection of small bottles of rum each dedicated to celebrating the death of a terrible person, I have also drawn up a list of good restaurants to celebrate further a few days later.

    Yeah, it’s not like Republicans said horrible things people Ice shot, or trans people, or the kids at Sandy Hook.

    …it’s not like Trump called war dead losers.

    Yeah I think the mods might be disabled, as not technically wrong, just functionally and morally stupid, regarding the death of renowned evil shit-person Sen.

    Sorry turns out scotus ruled senators can be animatronics

      Alas spell check wouldn’t fix the were or the are. When I see this I give them the benefit of the doubt and assume English is their second language. Still drives me insane though.

        I’m a context before accuracy person. If I can understand what they’re saying and their point, I’ll let minor things go. I will go back and reedit my own mistakes though, over and over, because I can’t stand myself doing it. But I’m here for the discussion, not the grammar and spelling grading.

          This is a rather natural conclusion once you realize all grammar rules are decided by some committee somewhere. They’re not some law of nature. That being said, it also pains me greatly to find mistakes in my own text.

            Grammar only truly matters if not following a particular rule can actually cause miscommunication. Doesn’t happen often in common conversation though. Just laws and board game rules.

    Catholicism unironically teaches this, and you can even skip the charity part.
