This is how Rush's death should be honored. Let's not speak ill of the dead, let's quote Rush speaking ill of the dead.

37.90/ Limbaugh was a cruel hate-machine who made a fortune off hurting people. To say "don't speak ill of the dead" is the attitude of abuse enablers.

It's easy to make fun of Rush Limbaugh right now, but it's important to remember that he also brought a lot of people a lot of joy by dying

the question people need to be asking themselves when talking about rush limbaugh is "am i being too nice" and the answer is usually always "yes"

The fact that Rush Limbaugh had a career at all shows you how broken this country is, he made 85 million a year because he made racist white losers feel a little less alone.

Oh, we completely understand that his appeal was that his listeners found him funny.

That says a lot more about his listeners than it does liberals. https://t.co/CzKheS5wR5
The thing Trump and Limbaugh understood is that Republican voters want to be entertained. The grievance mill of Hawley/Cruz/Carlson may rile, but what the beating MAGA hat middle class heart of the GOP wants is permission to be petty assholes for the sake of their own amusement.

\u2705 Yes, Rush Limbaugh had an "AIDS Update" segment that mocked the deaths of gay people.

there's something deeply perverse about how Twitter lets its 'trending' bar get turned into a smug Death Jubilee every time a right-wing person dies (or even might die!), and goes to the heart of what is fundamentally unhealthy about this medium and what it does to people.
— Jeff B., who on earth is this guy?? (@EsotericCD) February 17, 2021
Liberals who didn\u2019t listen to Rush, and just read the Media Matters accounts, never understood how *funny* he was. What set him off from his many imitators was how wildly entertaining he was, and the absolutely unbreakable bond he formed with his listeners.

1/ Another observation the #Literalist fallacy I see about how much Trump (ym'sh) has planned all of the chaos & violence. My overarching point will be that society is structured & that means there's an inherent pattern to effects no matter the 'intelligence' behind the causes
