So here's the thing... You said a "jackdaw is a crow." Is it in the same family? Yes. No one's arguing that. As someone who is a scientist who studies crows, I am telling you, specifically, in science, no one calls jackdaws crows. If you want to be "specific" like you said, then you shouldn't either. They're not the same thing. If you're saying "crow family" you're referring to the taxonomic grouping of Corvidae, which includes things from nutcrackers to blue jays to ravens. So your reasoning for calling a jackdaw a crow is because random people "call the black ones crows?" Let's get grackles and blackbirds in there, then, too. Also, calling someone a human or an ape? It's not one or the other, that's not how taxonomy works. They're both. A jackdaw is a jackdaw and a member of the crow family. But that's not what you said. You said a jackdaw is a crow, which is not true unless you're okay with calling all members of the crow family crows, which means you'd call blue jays, ravens, and other birds crows, too. Which you said you don't. It's okay to just admit you're wrong, you know?

Something something jackdaw

Grackles are so silly! I often see them throwing things around in my shade garden while they forage.

Love how their eyes contrast with the color of their feathers, too!

Grackle is a crow.

So here's the thing... I said a "crow is a grackle." Is it in the same family? No. No one's arguing that. As someone who is a scientist who studies memes, I am telling you, specifically, in science, everyone calls the Grackle of Judgement a Crow. If you want to be "specific" like you said, then you shouldn't either. They're not the same thing. If you're saying "birb family" you're referring to the taxonomic grouping of The Word, which includes things from nutcrackers to blue jays to birb is the words. So your reasoning for calling a crow a grackle is because scientist people "call the black ones grackles?" Let's get ravens and jackdaws in there, then, too. Also, calling someone a human or an ape? It's not one or the other, that's not how taxonomy works. They're both. This grackle is a crow and a member of the meme family. But that's not what you said. You said this crow is a grackle, which is true unless you're okay with calling all members of the crow family crows, which means you'd call blue jays, ravens, and other birds crows, too. Which you said you don't. It's okay to just admit you're right, you know?

It’s a Grackle which is not a crow but looks, sounds, and acts like one

OVERRULED

It's stolen from a tinder convo posted on mastodon.

I’m pretty sure I used crow of judgment years ago, I think it was a niche meme that never really took off

YOU'RE A GRACKLE!
