A woman has gone viral after sharing a video that seemingly shows them trashing their own father at his funeral, branding him a “racist, misogynistic, xenophobic” Donald Trump supporter.

“Dad, please know that I am grateful, and highly aware of what you have done for this family, [but] I still don’t miss you,” they declared. “When you died, I felt like there was a hole. I missed something, but it wasn’t you. It was the idea of what you could [have] become. I missed being able to hope and wish that one day you’d turn a corner and see the world from my perspective.”

The activist went on to tell mourners that they had hoped their dad might one day help them fight “for the things that matter.”

However, they claimed that his death had “solidified the fact that you’ll never be what you could have been, but only what you are — and what you are is a racist, misogynistic, xenophobic, Trump-loving, cis, straight white man.”

As the audience sat watching, the outspoken woman further said that they would not defer to their dad purely because he was dead, as he had “disrespected and disregarded the lives and deaths of entire communities.

“You are everything I aspire not to be and I refuse to stand up here and sing the praises of a man who is the paradigm of white supremacy,” they stated.

The TikToker ended the speech by defiantly declaring: “I swear to God, I will make this world a better place. Not at all because of you, but in exact opposition to you.”

I KNOW... And what about the people who loved him. This was extremely cruel and juvenile for her to air out her politics at a funeral like that.

funerals today are not formal affairs unless you are upper class.

There is a city in Illinois named Normal. There is a neighborhood in San Diego called Normal Heights (because the Normal School, now San Diego State University, used to be located there).

How long before activists demand that the names be changed?

"2 Timothy 3:1-5 But understand this, that in the last days there will come times of difficulty. For people will be lovers of self, lovers of money, proud, arrogant, abusive, disobedient to their parents, ungrateful, unholy, heartless, unappeasable, slanderous, without self-control, brutal, not loving good, treacherous, reckless, swollen with conceit, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having the appearance of godliness, but denying its power. Avoid such people."

Yea people. The Bible, real 2000 years ago, real today.

In ancient Athens it was against the law to slander a dead person (according to Plutarch in his Life of Solon).
