Please take down the picture of Archie Bunker under the caption RIP Rush Limbaugh on top right of the screen. It's not funny and is very disrespectful to the memory of Rush.

RE: Rush Limbaugh memorial with Archie Bunker (Carroll O'Connor)
I think the same thing every time I see it. I wish it was removed.
However there is a long trend here of admin putting celebrity memorials with the correct names and a photo of the wrong celebrity who kinda sorta resembles them. Like, if Mick Jagger from The Rolling Stones died, they'd probably put a photo of Steve Tyler from Aerosmith.
I am not sure if it started with just one funny troll photo the first time for a laugh, or if it is a statement about how often the sheep make mistakes (Mandela effect) and only a few see the truth - here we are featuring two men who like cigars, so they must both be the same person - or if it is something deeper to make us THINK for a few more seconds about how great and important Rush was instead of a quick glance at a real photo of Rush and feeling nothing, or if it is mocking The Left by virtue that Archie Bunker was a racist/bigot (who did change) and The Left thinks that about Rush, or perhaps it is a polemic statement about how important our freedom of expression is; that we should be able to utter something even if it might offend some people so that our voices are not silenced by people who claim "hate speech" when it is merely speech that they hate.
I am totally aligned with your opinion - but I am also aligned with the above.

I'd appreciate your feedback or just a courtesy reply to let me know you saw my attempt at an explanation and where you stand on it now.
I appreciate your comments but I still fail to see anything at all funny about it. In that picture, I see a childish attempt at being witty rather than any polemic statement.
It offended you. It offended me.
That we have the right to do something that might offend someone is important.
Could be worse, it could be a picture of Geddy Lee.
Somebody call the wahhhhhhhhhhhhhhmbulance
