There is nothing wrong with celebrating his works outside of harry potter. But you didn’t go after the fans of the character he played in that to do it. They are mourning too.

You’re right, I didn’t go after fans of Snape. I simply said(maybe in a rather blunt way) that there would be a heavy saturation of tribute posts that mourn him through edits and stuff related to his role as Snape, and in some cases, inextricably tie the man and the character together. 

And so I wanted to add something that completely side stepped all of that. Because I feel like concentrating solely on that one character works towards erasing a lot of the other things he did. Because I feel like there are probably a lot of people here who are made deeply uncomfortable by that character, and the heavy emphasis on that role could affect their ability to grieve for a man they may miss for any number of other reasons.
