      That’s why I usually capitalize every word in a hashtag. (Also, screen readers.)

      I remember I had to read this over several times to get it 😅 but I found it hilarious people were whatever about Margret but devastated over Cher (for good reason ofc)

      omg i was literally reading this as “now that chers dead” for a solid minute before i realized it was “now thatchers dead” 💀 the internet is wild sometimes.

      Great headline tbh. It’s got me thinking. It’s not often it needs to be clarified that someone is in fact not dead, but when that’s the case I think they should employ a Thatcher’s Dead format.

      Dude I’m telling as an American I never knew that Thatcher was so hated by many people that they even celebrated her death I can only imagine how we’ll react once Trump bites it
