It’s difficult to describe the tweets but please open the article and read the disgusting things people wrote. I’m all for freedom of speech, these individuals have every right to speak their mind.
It’s difficult to describe the tweets but please open the article and read the disgusting things people wrote. I’m all for freedom of speech, these individuals have every right to speak their mind. However it speaks to the root of your character, the amount of hatred that you hold in your heart and what you might be capable of.
So hypocritical, my mother use to tell me, if you don’t have anything nice to say don’t say anything at all. “Rest In Piss” was allowed to trend on twitter after the death of Rush Limbaugh. Would twitter allow me to mock and cheer when individuals from the left pass? People who I would consider raciest and sexual predators? Individuals like Joe Biden who gave a eulogy for the former Klansman Robert Bryd, Chris and Andrew Cuomo who have been accused by countless women of sexual harassment and sexual assault and then using their power to cover it up or raciest CNN anchors like Don Lemon and Joe Reid? Just looking for any sort of consistency.
I would encourage Medhi Hasan to read things that Joe Biden said about busing and “racial jungles”. Read about Joe and Hunter’s use of the N-word (weather they were quoting someone or not(does it matter?)). Look at the stuff Kamala said about the deadly, violent and destructive riots after the death of George Floyd. I challenge you. No one is perfect and we should not expect it.
At least hold your hatred back until the body is cold.

“Rush Limbaugh was a coward and white supremacist. He aggressively and cynically exploited divisions in our country by weaponizing hatred and bigotry for his own personal gain. He was in service to his own greed, prejudice, and hypocrisy, and that is how history will remember him,” far-left activist Charlotte Clymer wrote on Twitter. “If Rush Limbaugh deserves credit for anything, it his pioneering work in spreading disinformation and directly enabling our nation’s current state of vast distrust of experts and spurning of good faith in the public discourse. He will not be missed by rational adults.”
Anti-Second Amendment activist Cameron Kasky wrote: “Rush Limbaugh has passed on, but worry not- his memory lives on through bigots everywhere.”
Yale Law School professor Scott Shapiro wrote on Twitter: “I wouldn’t say I was happy that Rush Limbaugh died. It’s more like euphoria.” Shapiro later set his Twitter account to private following backlash that he received online.
Far-left commentator Medhi Hasan wrote: “Rush Limbaugh died. Rightwingers on Twitter are heaping praise on him. I challenge you to read the things he said about minorities, black people, gay people, women, sexual consent, torture, climate, even the Jan 6th attack, and find things to praise in there. I challenge you.”
Media Matters blogger Parker Molloy wrote: “My sincerest condolences go out to hell’s other residents who now have to deal with being associated with him.”
