Scratch a self-proclaimed liberal and find a hater who rejoices in the death of someone because their political ideologies differ. And it is not someone who is ‘followed by a leader’ who is rejoicing. It is those who whined about someone who ‘rejoiced’ when a senior journalist was shot dead last year because the PM followed.
Former Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee has been on life support after his health deteriorated. While many people poured their wishes for his speedy recovery, there were others who scorned and were spiteful of him. Here are some of the tweets by so-called liberals showing their hate for a man who is probably breathing his last.
I don’t want #Vajpayee to die. This nation can’t afford another statue worth a few thousand crores.#Vajpayeecritical

One self-proclaimed ‘free-thinker’ referred to Vajpayee as a founder of a terrorist organisation. He even wished death upon him by rooting to ‘pull the plug’.
Dear @DelhiPolice , This guy is spreading hatred and it could hurt sentiments of Millions.
At such sensitive time, he is trying to create unrest. Kindly take appropriate action please ? pic.twitter.com/0GBrVew356— The Lazy Lawyer (@BBTheorist) August 16, 2018
Communist leader Kavita Krishnan, who otherwise spends time defending rape accused from her party cadre and the Left academia, too, shared her disdain for Vajpayee.
Atal Bihari Vajpayee – kindly spare your drama at least now. Born disgrace

Disgraced former IPS officer Sanjiv Bhatt, who regularly spews venom, too chimed in with his 2 cents.
Dear Indians,
Do you now realise what was our original sin? It was allowing Vajpayee to fool us with his masquerade. It was then that we allowed blatant majoritarian communalism to get a foot in the door.#OriginalSin— Sanjiv Bhatt (IPS) (@sanjivbhatt) August 16, 2018
A journalist associated with The Wire, the left propaganda website which regularly indulges in spreading lies, already declared at Vajpayee dead at 2:42 pm and whined about the road blocks that would follow the demise.
This is kinda of filth Wire is hiring .
You can abuse , criticise government according to ideology and hatred but celebrating someone’s who was Infact ex PM death . is lower than one can assume .

She later deleted the tweet.
While death is inevitable, and all of us must die at some point, to generate so much hate for a 93-year-old breathing his last is rather unfortunate.
