The only surveillance grid that should be put in place is one that tracks politicians finances and movements. They require more scrutiny than 99% of people out there.
Years ago, I knew someone who claimed that a young man killed in a motorcycle accident had been her boyfriend. She told everyone she was devastated, quit her job, and made his death the defining story of her life. I believed her initially.
Later, I learned the truth.
They had never actually dated. He had pursued her briefly, but they were never a couple. In fact, before his death, she had told mutual friends that he annoyed her and that he was a loser.
There’s a term for this: grief appropriation. It’s when someone inserts themselves into another person’s tragedy, elevating themselves into a central figure in a loss when, in reality, they played only a minor role in that person’s life.
Often, there’s a secondary gain. In her case, it was attention. It gave her a reason to quit a job she didn’t want, receive sympathy, and continue being financially supported by her parents. She even tried to enter his bedroom to collect personal belongings she claimed he “would have wanted her to have.”
She genuinely believed she was entitled to them.
The story became more elaborate over time. The more she invested in it, the more convinced she became that they were soulmates and that she was one of the primary victims of his death.
Meanwhile, his real family was left to deal with the confusion and additional pain her behavior created. His parents had lost a son. His siblings had lost a brother. Instead of allowing them to grieve, she made herself another person they had to manage.
That’s one of the cruelest parts of grief appropriation. It doesn’t just rewrite the past. It competes with the people whose grief is actually rooted in reality.
I share this because I see striking similarities in Candace Owens’ attempts to position herself as the guardian of Charlie Kirk’s legacy. Charlie has a real widow. He has real children who will grow up without their father. He has parents, a sister, lifelong friends, and colleagues who are carrying an unimaginable loss.
When someone elevates themselves into the center of another person’s tragedy, they aren’t honoring that person’s memory. They’re appropriating it. And in the process, they often make an already devastating loss even harder for the people who loved that person most.
@txsalth2o Sounds like your mother gets on your nerves or you have a communication problem. Seems like personality more than age. It is a shame though, having a parent to call is such a blessing. Even the ones that don’t communicate the way you think they should.
Just your periodic reminder that if you’re an American, you’re living inside the rarest political miracle in human history.
Destroying it because you’ve never lived without it is like tearing down the lighthouse because you’ve never seen the rocks.
