But seriously that's why the right uses dead people to say they support Trump, they can't say no because they're fucking dead. We saw this shit with MLK Jr. being coopted into supporting MAGA, it's just that added to Tupac instead.

Same reason they like to fawn over the unborn and babies: It's easy to put words in the mouth of those who can't argue back.

I was just about to bring up MLK, Jr.

Great example of this.

And even as journalists say that he was a philander, an abuser, and a pedophile or something (just like they do with Mao Zedong, though they certainly don't rehabilitate Mao in their image).

Hell, this somewhat happens to the Black Panthers from time to time, but by liberals.
