Surprisingly, Chapotraphouse shows maturity in the passing of Bush. Just kidding. The wastrels are having a literal party thread.

When Jimmy Carter passes, I wonder if we would see such a spectacle from the right?

Surprisingly enough, the fifth most upvoted comment in hating on r/politics . I guess not even the far-left likes that place.

Not really surprising. I’d act this way too if the biggest thing I had to lose was my part-time latte job

You know, its kind of sad that my first thought after hearing about it this morning after "That sucks" was if the left would be pissing on his grave, or really, how long it would take. Christ, even the car selling radio show down here had to get in on the "he ran the CIA/FBI like a mob boss!" shit. The dude's dead, have some respect, christ.

Good god that is probably by far the most toxic thread I have ever seen on Reddit.

They see him as a murder and a terrorist. As far as they are concerned, Bush is not much different from Osama, and I'd celebrate the latter's death like that if I was on Reddit back then.

Edit: Downvoting doesn't change their beliefs, I'm just explaining why they think it's justified to behave like that.

Why celebrate? What has Bush even done in the past decade other than sit in an old folks home?

“Hell yea! Bush finally died! I thought everyday about that evil fucker and how he’s sitting there in that old folks home with his soup and crackers”

HW Bush was the literal embodiment of the globalist deep state, he wrecked everything Reagan built, and began the most recent wave of "one world government" political thought for the US - which of course essentially means taxation without representation, because there isnt an ACTUAL world government, so the shadow globalists rule the world slave populace as an unelected and unaccountable master class. Modern royalty. Yea, thanks, HW.
