What does pol think of hunter s thompson?
>>79297358
degenerate faggot and an all around mad fucking nerd who transgressed for the sake of it
He seems like he was pretty full of himself

Some things he did were pretty nifty, others weren't. Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail books can give you a good picture.
fucking crazy
amen

a misfit and a mutant
a loser for sure
remarkable in many ways
not degenerate enuogh for alt right but too degenerate for christian conservatism
in other words hes an average american
He was based. Did a grip of drugs, drank like a fish, and would regularly shoot his typewriters with a .44 mag. Had extra typwriters on hand because of this. He was pretty lefty, but also pro freedom. He almost won the sherriff election in aspen once upon a time.

one of these things is not like the others
Did what the fuck he wanted. That's at least somewhat admirable, as degenerate as a lot of it was. Regardless, his shadow will forever loom over journalism.
Inspired me to get into journalism. Also probably has a lot to do with my alcoholism
Too weird to live, too rare to die

Hey either total freedom, or no freedom.
Gave a better snapshot of an era than pretty much anybody else at the time.
Puts into perspective just how much we've actually given up since then.
