An oppressor doesn't become more acceptable because their dead especially when the harm they caused is still around.
Many years ago my parents had a neighbor. He was a nice guy but annoying as all hell at times, so much so that my mom purposely avoided him at the pool. If she saw him she’d go out of her way to walk around to the side of the pool and be sure to not get in the water when he was in there. She spent months not being able to say 1 remotely decent thing about him.
Then he died unexpectedly of a heart attack. And suddenly, according to her, he was the nicest person she knew, always so friendly and loved chatting with him, etc etc.
I straight up called her out on it.
I was on a work zoom during covid. One guy was getting an award, (6 months before they told him to leave or be fired by the way) and the lady from "leadership" was talking about how she always enjoyed their chats near the eating area (before covid), and over teams he sent a message to a few of us that said "I have never spoken to her in my entire time here". She was so fake none of us doubted it for an instant. Funny as hell.
