That Mt. Rushmore looks perfect! I guess my only issue is there's no Phillies player there. They did bring us a World Series back in 2008 after a long drought. Other than that, those players are definitely deserving of that list.
Kenshi, I'm really not a huge fan of that movement. I liked what they stood for early on, but they've pushed it to something else entirely now.
I considered that about the Phillies team, but the Mt Rushmore would be more dedicated to "legend status" rather than championships. The 2008 Phillies were a great team all around but not very meme worthy lol.
A.I., DR. JAY, Weapon X and Big Dick Nick all write their own memes.
Also I wanted to highlight your first response directed at Kenshi. Not a comment on BLM so much as what happened there that really bothers me.
I saw the media pumping up BLM for ratings and controversy. It made me feel really bad for folks who truly got behind the movement for all the right reasons. Leading up to the election, for like a year, every time there was a shooting, the news (and social media) would cover it non stop, then incite people who were watching in the hope of creating riots to get more coverage to air on tv.
It was really sad the way the media used BLM, but it happens all the time so long as the content is topical enough. As soon as the election was over, media coverage of BLM dropped like a stone and now we barely hear about them anymore. The election was over and the movement wasn't as worth it, I guess.
It's a shame because there was a real conversation to be had about how militarized and disconnected the police have become in America. But BLM was so politicized (partially their own fault) that whenever white people and black people try to talk, they end up screaming at each other. Any hope of real talk here is gone for years thanks to the likes of CNN and FOX News and countless others.
Like, if a black person tries to talk about police shootings, a white person will counter and say more whites are shot by police every year. Then the black person will say it's different because of proportions. Like, WTF, you both are trying to say the same thing to each other! Listen! But now all each person can see on the other side is Trump or Hillary, not another human being.
Anyway, I wanted to just agree that BLM started off good but really got corrupted down the line.
