In defence of Michael Moore...

[NNadir]

22. The only thing that makes me "uncomfortable" about Moore, is that people can admire such...

...a smug asshole, particularly one who is as much of an ignoramus as he is.

In 2000 this smug asshole with a very low level of perception and a healthy dollop of bourgeois self absorption announced that George Bush and Al Gore were equivalent.

How stupid must you be to make such a statement?

He endorsed a person who was possible even more ignorant than he is as a result, the paranoid "Jack T. Ripper" clone Ralph Nader.

More than 1 million Iraqi's died because of "the same as Gore."

The world has not been the same.

He's nowhere near as pure as he declares himself. In fact, he's a prime example of the Dunning Kruger effect, almost Trumpian in that regard, since he holds himself in high esteem despite lacking a shred of ethical credibility, as demonstrated by the 1 million dead Iraqis.

This may come to a surprise to the "Bowling for Columbine" author who seems to have found the deaths of these young people as something worthy of a smug joke title, but believe it or not, Iraqis are human beings.

He can go fuck himself and all of his efforts to elevate the likes of Trump and Bush et al.
