“A man has died! Have you no decency?!”
Well on the one hand maybe I do, and on the other hand maybe I don’t. Clearly the truth is somewhere in the middle.
Both those sides are equally terrible and I wouldn’t support someone on either side.
exclusively criticisizes one side
I don’t think the dead are losing much sleep over your reaction to their demise.
Mourning and/or condemning the dead is done so for the living, not the dead.
Why would the living care about what you think of a dead person? I couldn’t give less of a care about what you think of any dead person I happen to have known.
Hypothetical: Someone you know unironically, unjokingly says they believe Adolf Hitler was an amazing leader, does it effect your opinion of the person you know?
I know that a percentage of society do in fact believe that and then the numbers are inflated by the edgy comments some people need to make so I wouldn’t be surprised by it. I’m really failing to find a scenario where I would care about someone’s tweet dancing on another’s grave. It’s so common for netizens to pride themselves on being flippant about deaths other than their own.
You’re saying if someone said that, you wouldn’t think more or less of them or their positions?
You’d be neutral to such a declaration in dealing with such a person? Because I would do my weather best never to go near or interact with such a person again if I could help it. I would tend to disregard the opinions of a vocal Hitler fan.
I wouldn’t be like “who cares, Hitler is dead, if you enjoyed accounts of his work, you do you. It will have no bearing on my impression of your policy positions.”
Well if the same ever happens to me, I’ll let you know how it goes down.

They’re the only people who care.
A centrist would be to the left of legit most of the libs in here
