again, ill ask when does he bash people exclusively for being rich? i see him bash on elitism, classism, and greed, but i never read/heard him declare that people that are rich all suck. i guess either i missed a passage or you're putting words in his mouth, so please...that dialogue....surely since you're well read in his literature and he's just so obviously against wealthy people just for being wealthy you can easily present it.

what constitutes as greed? having a 6-7-8 bedroom house for a family of 3?

And Michael Moore has never 'bashed' people for being rich, but he does do exactly what Jaden said, 'bash' people for the perpetuation of wealth caused by rich people being able to afford the best schools... creating children with the best education, meaning theyll be rich etc.

but it doesnt stop him getting rich and buying in to the circle of wealth by sending his daughter to the best schools

Here is what WD has to say about Michael Moore... (liberals rolling your eyes at me shush up!)...

The man has every RIGHT to comment, criticize, and trash our American government. We cannot stop him from doing it. It is his right and freedom to do it. I respect him for doing it.

Now, if you expect me to accept what he says and agree with everything he claims....Ehhh no! I'm not some deluded Canadian/European Liberal Anti-American clown that sucks up every thing he claims. Nor I'm some Super American Patriot that refuses anything Moore claims. I just happen to be your average person who thinks Moore is nothing more than a guy with cap and camera trying to make himself feel important.

I don't need Michael Moore to tell what is happening with our government....I can read it by myself thank you very much. And I will draw my own conclusions...I don't need Moore to do it for me. Here is what I think is fair...If Moore has the right to criticize Bush and think is fair that Moore should accept criticism as well.

As for those of you who don't like it when people make fun of Michael Moore.....well, he's fat, ugly, and annoying it's not a lie is the true.....plus he's too fat...Yeah!

Yep, that's all he is--he was just trying to get his 15 minutes of fame and it worked out to his advantage to the point where he's appearing at red-carpet events.

Oh, I wouldn't even dispute that.....which is also why I don't like that other idiot clown looking of Morgan Spurlock. "Fast food is BAD for your health, don't eat too much"

....

Really Spurlock? You can't be *beep* serious!

I gotta admit though, that movie turned me off of McDonald's for a while.

Michael Moore definitely isn't for the democratic party, per se, he rips on them more in his books than on anyone else. Other than that, I haven't found any fallacies in his work and having spent 20 minutes with the guy he's pretty nice and easy to get along with.

Are you shitting me? 🤨

Haven't found any fallacies in his works..............................it must have been that 20 minutes you spent with him, he kept your head in the gutter🙂

^ ✅ He sure did.

Yup, it's easy when you're polite, cordial, and banging the chief editor of the school paper. plus living in colorado helps.

He's become one of those figures that- while there may be valid reasons to dislike him - is often disliked because it's the cool thing to do.

The same thing happened with Bush, in all fairness. There were/are very valid reasons to dislike him and his work, but I think the whole "F*ck Bush" mentality that EVERYONE adopted ended up working FOR Bush instead of against him.

Agreed. Even though my age group is too young to vote, I remember hearing the "Go Bush" mentality from many kids during both elections, only to hear "**** Bush" from the same people a month later.

Is Michael Moore correct in the things he says, or is he a jerk that enjoys lying for the sake of the democratic party, or is he something else altogether? Discuss.

He's a jerk.

Screw the hippies!

GO DUBYA. 👆

Yeah!!! GO DUBYA!!!!

Isn't that a picture of Saddams gas work there.

Actually, Pol Pot's killing fields, pictures from Dachau and Auschwitz were too graphic and current Iraqi pictures are too. But I think I made my point.

You did indeed. Moore in a 20 minute meeting is cordial, freindly and funny.

Whatever one thinks of Michael Moore, whether its postive or negative, by talking about him, you credit him with exposure - the kind of publicity they seek, we are giving them.

Yup and it makes me feel all warm and fuzzy...................but then again we could just talk about nothing so no one gets extra exposure 😉 That will show them all!
