79. "RE: how effed up was that "anonymous" donation segment?" In response to In response to 61
Crazy shit! The whole rest of the movie after that scene, I was thinking to myself "Dude probably feels like a chump right about now. I wonder how he's gonna handle this."
I got home from the movie expecting to see one of 3 things when I checked the Moorewatch.com site:
1) A blog saying basically "Thanks Mike. That's a good look fam. No hard feelings. Sorry for all the hate over the years. I'll shut the site down tomorrow as a show of gratitude for that TWELVE THOUSAND DOLLAR CHECK you sent me in my time of need. (And really, is there EVER a time when someone couldn't use an extra 12g's? Dude said that check came like a year later after his wife got sick, but you KNOW he wasn't trippin!)
2) A dormant site because he did what he promised in number 1. Or....
3) A blog basically calling Moore out on his grandstanding, self congratulatory bullshit (his opinion, I'm assuming. Not necessarily mine.) and detailing his reinvigorated hate of all things Michael Moore and a renewed commitment toward bringing about the eventual downfall of the Moore empire. This of course, would be accompanied with a vow to return every red cent of that TWELVE THOUSAND DOLLAR CHECK. Because otherwise, he'd be, y'know... A HYPOCRITE. Which among other things, is one of his biggest issues with Moore..
Not THIS fucker though! Dude's still poppin trash, but hasn't said word one about a thank you or an offer to return that money now that he knows who the actual benefactor was.
MICHAEL MOORE WON.
Either shut the site down as a show of gratitude or send the money back, take the L, and K.I.M. Really it's a L for dude either way.
But yeah, great fuckin movie. (c) Italian who just saw Rocky
