A resident of Indiana is sharing something that she found very interesting while spending some time at a local cemetery in Lizton. The woman shared a photo of a headstone that was dedicated to a man who lost his life and was obviously a diehard MAGA and Donald Trump supporter. So much so that his tombstone was a homage to MAGA, which came as a shock to many on the internet after seeing it.
The Indiana headstone obviously stirred up some strong feelings, and many were stunned to see that someone would go as far as to request the term MAGA on the stone at the head of the final resting place. The photo, which was shared on Reddit, censored the man’s name and other details, but it was clear that he was in a branch of the military.
On the tombstone, a photo of the man can be seen in uniform. Other photos of military objects are also visible on the stone. The photos are beautiful to look at and the stone is well made. However, at the bottom, the term MAGA is clearly spelled out for all to see. Of course, this set off many on the internet.
Indiana MAGA Headstone Infuriates The Internet
“Spotted in ye old Lizton, IN. Brainwashed to the grave,” the original poster captioned their snapshot.
“It’s the only way MAGA makes sense at this point, you make it so wholly ingrained (or in this case engraved) in your personality that no amount of logic or reasoning will ever make you change your mind,” another person commented.
“I wish this was fake,” said another. “Gross,” agreed a fourth party.
Meanwhile, some spoke out about finding it disrespectful to post a photo of a person’s headstone online. To which, one Redditor said, “To have a gravestone made this way, it’s a statement piece, a political statement piece. I’d say this guy is getting exactly what he would’ve wanted.”
The post certainly raised eyebrows and had people talking online. It’s likely that more MAGA funeral and burials will continue to pop up, as the United States continues to navigate this turbulent time in its history.
For some, the Indiana gravestone could be seen as a bold display of personal beliefs, ones that seemingly don’t end even after death. For others, it raised eyebrows about taste, tradition, and how political messaging has seeped into every corner of American life.
