I've always hated how as soon as someone dies, people pretend that they never did anything wrong. And if anyone dares to bring up the bad things they did then that person usually gets strongly criticized and told to be more compassionate or whatever. I definitely think people should be polite about their grievances ofc, but ignoring the bad stuff a person did throughout their life is more damaging than acknowledging it.
Westworld actress Evan Rachel Wood, herself a survivor of rape and sexual abuse, got a lot of shit recently for her tweet about the late Koby Bryant for example.
"What has happened is tragic. I am heartbroken for Kobe’s family. He was a sports hero. He was also a rapist. And all of these truths can exist simultaneously"
