How my parents hated Michael Moore. He reminded them of a guy who they felt always got the best of them. There was a resemblance. The person in question was well educated and pretty smart. He could see my parents manipulation of events and always got ahead of them. He wasn't a bad person. He wasn't religious but donated 100 grand to a church that was rebuilding from a fire because most of his employee's attended it. My parents tried to make the donation a bad thing. My parents also died maga chumps.
I also hate Michael Moore. I was all about him during the Bush admin. He spoke out against the Patriot act, the wars, the torture, the drone strikes. He made talk show appearances, wrote books, filmed movies. Then Obama got elected and did the same exact shit for another 8 years and suddenly Michael Moore had nothing to say, complete radio silence. Fuck that guy.
I don't understand your hate. You hate him because his message has been consistent for 25 years?
Edit: full disclosure. I met Mr. Moore in 1998. He generously gave his time to speak to everyone that wanted to speak with him. He gave out personal contact information to some community organizers, and really seemed interested in helping a bunch of us kids who were trying to change the world. I really respect him a lot.
No. I hate him because suddenly all the things he'd been rallying against during the Bush years weren't problems anymore when Obama was doing it. It was never about the crimes against humanity, it was about who was committing them. That's not ideological consistency, it's quite the opposite.
Which wars did Obama start again????
Talk about ignorant, lol.
He didn't have to start them, they were already ongoing. He continued them, escalated them, expanded them into Syria, renewed the patriot act, didn't shut down gitmo, didn't ban torture, didn't do any of the things he implied he'd do with his "hope and change" slogan. Obama didn't change shit. We might as well have had 2 more terms of Bush. But, strangely, Michael Moore had nothing to say about that.
