The author’s historical comparison
The author compares this situation with the posthumous treatment of political figures from the past. The text mentions Benito Mussolini, Muammar Gaddafi, Nicolae and Elena Ceaușescu, as well as Adolf Hitler.
In the author’s view, despite the brutality of the public treatment of these people’s bodies, such episodes had a certain finality. By contrast, Kirk’s digital image, the columnist believes, constantly returns online in the form of new generated images.
