List of things I liked about Mike:
-
No fancy smancy orbs. Rocks, gravel. Kick em, chuck em, everyone has access to rocks.
-
Let some r/cth/ teenagers grift, didn't give a shit that they used his name to Weekend At Bernie's some socialist-lite nonsense.
-
Gravel posting on Twitter really pissed off some Warren boomer who spent pages telling me how Mike had stolen $10k from him in the 80s in some sort of land development scheme for a resort. Telling the dude I didn't care and thought it was funny made him post about it for weeks, which I also thought was funny.
-
Died too irrelevant and soon to be cancelled.
-
Absolute disdain for the Democrats, wanted to kick Joe Biden's ass during that 2008 debate.
Biden gets a lot of shit for being senile but Gravel’s campaign was essentially ran by two children in a long coat. Also wasn’t he CIA?
Eh, I respect the way he went out honestly. I'd love for some kids to my left to use whatever legacy I leave behind to try and do some good/get some laughs.
I've heard the CIA thing, but it seems like a stretch considering Mike usually took stands against their interests; pentagon papers, calling for release of the torture report, using his platform to shit on the Iraq/Afghanistan invasion.
