Fascist, pro-Putin, corrupt politician who had an involvement in the mafia murders of the 1990s, and who often engaged in sex parties with minors—Silvio Berlusconi dead at 86

Would someone please tell me why I’m supposed to talk kindly about someone just because they died ?

@flexghost

Not speaking ill of the dead has great social value if you live in a small community where everybody knows everyone else, and denouncing the fascist might cause distress to his young grandchild and cause six generations of feuding.

Cultural-technological lag is real.
