Are people who have been problematic and contrary during their years of life, always spoken of in terms of fondness, endearment and appreciation when they die?

Do people have a propensity to smile and appreciate people to their faces, while stabbing them on the backs in their absence?

Do politicians and leaders of countries choose to pick fault with neighbouring and distant countries, rather than focussing on fixing issues at home?

Do people with their own minds, blindly follow influencers like sheep being lead to their slaughter?
