Why do normies pretend someone is very nice when he dies?

[ChadFucksYourOneitis]

They always describe that person like a saint , he's so nice and positive human being.
They say he's a good son , nice husband and a best friend.
Like if he died a hero. When in the reality , he once made many people's lives a living hell.

same reason they say necrophilia is bad

they wanna treated with "respect" when they die, so they treat dead people with "respect" even when its pointless

To signal their virtue.

In the future, when Kanye West dies, people who've hated him since the Taylor swift debacle will claim they've always loved him

i think thats a cope. people only do that to relatable and respectable (from their point of view) people

for example if i died in a dark corner on the street, nobody would care, not before i died and not after

it is what it is
