Warum machen die Leute das? Und warum gibt es im Internet so viel Zustimmung für dieses Verhalten?! Warum hassen manche Leute Daphne? Wirklich neugierig!

She uncovered a shit ton of shady shit. Those that want the truth put up the reminders that there is need for justice.

Those that have shit to hide take it down to try make ppl forget and further dehumanize her even after her death.

Many big questions, I try to be as concise as I can.

1. Neville Gafà is a propogandist and blogger for the Labour Party. He was very close to Joseph Muscat and his fellow corrupt clique (Keith Schembri, mainly). In general he’s a twat https://timesofmalta.com/article/gafa-offered-libya-war-victims-350k-each-to-drop-claims-against-him.870925

2. Many people (mainly but not only Labour Party supporters) hate Daphne because of a mix of 3 reasons:
* She hated the Labour Party with a passion
* She was a Nationalist Party supporter (though she did dislike and conflict with some within it)
* She was classist and did look down upon people who weren’t educated like
* She exposed corruption by the Labour Party and even her killing led to Labour’s golden boy Joseph Muscat resigning as Prime Minister

3. That memorial is the [Great Siege Memorial](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Siege_Monument) commemorating the victory the [Knights of Malta had over the Ottoman Turks in 1565](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Great_Siege_of_Malta). In truth people rarely cared about the monument before people started placing photos of Daphne there. You never saw anyone going to pay respects to the monument or even think about it. Hell many people didn’t even know it was for the Great Siege!

4. The memorial is opposite the Courts building, which is why protesters put her photo there in the fist place. It’s a reminder that 8 years later we still don’t know the full picture of her assassination. We still don’t know the true reason, and how connected some PL figures were with her assassination – whether knowingly or unknowingly.

Daphne Caruana Galizia despised a lot of people, e.g. I remember when Dom Mintoff died, she wrote ‚may his soul rot in hell‘. She was no saint herself, hate her or love her, and obviously she was not a uniting figure as she divided Malta. I think we can agree on this, whatever your political persuasion. Does this condone what happened to her? No, definitely not and I hope all the accomplices, principals or anyone involved get life sentences. I personally agreed with much of her investigative journalism. However, this is not true for everyone and they have a right to that opinion. It is also true that monument is for the Great Siege of Malta, one of the few non-politically charged holidays we have in Malta and definitely not for Daphne Caruana Galizia. The Constitutional Courts had decided that the removal of those protest items placed on that monument in an ongoing protest by the State was unconstitutional. However, it said nothing on whether another private citizen can remove them on the basis of their freedom of expression. Personally I think this state of play is all the fault of the Constitutional Courts, as now we have this farcical situation of private citizens / groups setting up makeshift monuments without State involvement under the guise of a never ending protest. This will lead to chaos. We already have a problem in this country with cenotaphs everywhere with roads due to past accidents, making our roads look like cemetaries. This is the last thing we need in my view.

In his defence, he didn’t think he’d get caught /s

Real talk, I do not care who she was or what she did. I’m sure she’s done good as much as she’s done bad. She was a human, just like we all are, she did not deserve to die. However, there are so many people that died in such horrible ways, and you don’t see anyone putting their memorial on monuments. Yes, we see cenotaphs everywhere, but that is specifically dedicated to the person, at the place of death. The great siege monument has nothing to do with anyone, and it should have stayed that way. You want there to be a memorial for Daphne? Sure, by all means, just not on something that is dedicated to something else.

Because people are so brainwashed by the current government, that they would rather forget that they blew up a journalist who was uncovering corruption (please note, corruption from BOTH sides not just labour).
People were gleeful when she died. My colleagues could barely contain their schadenfreude.
I didn’t like her as a person. She was a snob of the highest proportions, homophobic, elitist. But she was also an incredible investigative journalist who uncovered so much. Unfortunately in Malta we care more about an expired drivers licence of the opposition leader’s partner, then we do about a prime minister literally pocketing millions of tax payers money, and completely getting away with it.

Because in malta we only get influenced by what the prim minister and many love him because all they care off is that he is increasing their state pension.

Hive minds and cult vibes. That’s why. :/
