I see your point alright, I can't say I've much heart to argue my point TBH. The village gossip vibe isn't for me but enjoy!

I detest these people and I understand calling out their hypocrisy. Is there anything to be said for not policing how a woman is supposed to grieve publicly though? There's plenty wrong about the shameless exploitation of Kirk's death, but something about the current narrative feels gross. Stooping to their level? I mean yeah, maybe you could infer their relationship was shallow and transactional, but like, is this really a gotcha moment that we care about?
Yeah I get you, I think my discomfort is more of a general thing than this particular situation. I think it's like making fun of someone's physical features when someone nice may also have those features. Or like an effeminate male homophobe deserves to be mocked but you risk repeating things people who've been bullied for being effeminate have been hurt by. Maybe not a hill to die on but I try to avoid it myself.
