No idea who that is, no idea why people give attention to ragebaiters

Good fucking riddance!

I remember him pretty often unfortunately

Some bells ring in my head whenever I remember that he's dead

[–] Pika@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I didn't know he died, guess that makes sense why I stopped hearing his name all the time

Nor did I. Wikipedia says complications of lung cancer from his lifetime of smoking

I suspect the complication was inability to breathe

While he was replaced, and he'll continue to be replaced, I still found this to be somewhat uplifting.

Now I'll go back to forgetting that shit stain ever lived.

Thats mostly because he lost his popularity when Internet poscasts started taking over, now we have a new generation of asshole podcasters like Ben Shapiro and Matt Walsh

Dana Gould: Hey guys, I was just not remembering Rush and not remembering how influential he was and not remembering how much I hated him.

Everyone: Yeah, I don't even remember that he made millions of dollars and I'm not even remembering the exact cemetery that he was buried in. Yay, I'm glad we're all not remembering this.

It would be nice to believe this, but it's just not true. Unfortunately people do remember him fondly. It will take decades before the people who loved him are all dead and history gets to judge him.

So many have taken his place now.

Sound like exactly like what this person is doing, whoever they are.

But you're remembering him right now.
