Grave dancing is such a stupid term. If someone was a shit human then no one should pretend they were a saint in death. This is a “morality” argument that has no merit in any rational discourse.
It's also bullshit when assholes die and suddenly you are supposed to forget all their misdeeds and flaws out of "respect".
Death shouldn't magically turn everyone into a martyr.
I think is part of America’s aristocracy addiction. If all of Hollywood died tomorrow there would be mass celebration by the anti-woke, and the cockroaches scrambling to fill positions on the left. Perspective and “tribal” association dictates whether you dance or cry, with an ever widening gap of anyone being purely the former or latter.
I think it was originally based on sympathy for the fact that they were human beings with families who were suffering.
However it's become clear more recently that those people have no such sympathy for us when bad things happen to us, so the mutual truce is now broken.
There used to be a time when good people were universally venerable, today even the most saintly will be nit picked into grave dancing. The moral facade of America was mainly aristocracy abusing the common man, we see this now with the overwhelming majority of journalists, politicians, etc, who will whip you for saying mean things while stealing your money and castrating your kids.
it's only ever applied one way
