I don't see why you can't like or admire someone because of their political views or policies. Even worse, I don't see how you could actively dislike someone because of it. Like I said, I disagree with her but still respect her. Obama probably just wants to pay respect to her because she was a powerful and great political figure, regardless of what she thought or did.

You don't have to like someone to respect them though.

Even if people didn't like her politics and leadership, they should respect her for co-inventing whipped ice cream.

Exactly

My friend is the total opposite of me but politics comes after friendship. She wears a scarf and is a total lefty. But you should never judge someone based on their political views.

As a Brit, I don't agree with her policies and I don't have any respect whatsoever for the Conservative Party, but RIP.

Awww that's so sad.

RIP

[rbautz]

We should mourn with some music, when she was relevant.





My dear Margaret,

one thing I will never forgive to you, was that you were against the german "Wiedervereinigung"

So what I whishes for you now, well. I won't say it here.

People in the North of England will be having parties tonight, I'm sure.

That's where I'm from.

I can assure you my Facebook feed is celebrating right now.

Same here

Literally Huddersfield and the surrounding areas will be jumping for joy

This one girl on my FB feed is so damn PRESSED.

You weren't even alive when she was on parliament. She should instead be rejoicing over the fact that Thatcher contributed to the invention of whipped ice cream, because girl you know you've had one too many of those in the twenty years of your life!

But RIP. It's ok to disagree, but having no respect and comparing someone to Hitler? No.

I can't at all these teenagers trying to look clever by celebrating.

"Oh I know lots about politics, I am independent" blah blah, they weren't even alive when she was PM, and they are clearly just getting these views from their parents. It is a shame their parents didn't also teach them about respect.

HONESTLY !!!!!!

This and so much more!

It so fustrates me when people don't know anything. I'm not saying you have to, even I don't know everything but literally, some of the people on twitter right now, especially my age. It really bugs me when they literally know nothing about politics and use generic things they have heard around.
