He was comfortable with celebrating gay people dying of AIDS so I'd like to think he would have been comfortable with everyone celebrating his death, but probably not because he was a nasty hypocritical piece of shit.
Rush Limbaugh finally dead!

Well, I’m not going to dance on his grave - apart from anything else the line is too fuckin’ long - but you can’t spend your life doing people wrong and being an asshole and not expect a few corks to pop when you drop dead. Hell when Rupert Murdoch finally kicks the bucket I expect the ALP to declare it an informal public holiday.

Did Rush Limbaugh's 'AIDS Update' Mock the Deaths of Gay People?
Limbaugh would later say he regretted the segment as it made fun of people who were dying excruciating deaths.

That's particularly appropriate in that they are celebrating not just the death of a person who had been evil, but that that death ends their ability to be evil.
Thatcher died long after she lost power, and I believe had little personal influence left. However, Rush Limbaugh was still active spreading hatred and lies for the purpose of enriching himself and harming others. He can't hurt people anymore, and this is only a good thing.
(((((establishment intelligentsia)))))
I've got no sympathy. I don't need to celebrate, but I don't have to mourn him either.

He spent decades trying to convince people that tobacco causing lung cancer was was bullshit and that second hand smoke causing cancer was propoganda. Seems like a very fitting way for him to go.
Damn. He was a living caricature. Boggles the mind. Sure, I like being mean too, but apparently he wasn't just mean but bullshit embodied.
I mean, the caricature had to be made up that replicated what he did. He was a pioneer
Why do people always look at politicians and mouthpieces and the results of their ideology as weird abstracts? Things Limbaugh fought for killed people. The shame is that he didn't die before all the harm he caused. He lost his chance at redemption because he went to the grave an unrepentant ****. Fuck him. Fuck everyone who loved him. I don't care if he had a family, if they stuck by him then they're shits too.
He was also a short-lived Simpsons character back in the mid nineties.
So yeah, he's been around for a while and has been about as relevant as The Simpsons, which could do with a little dying of its own.
Not gonna lie, I thought Rush Limbaugh was an old timey guy. Like, historical figure old timey.
Maybe you are conflating his name with Mount Rushmore? They have sort of the same cadence when you say them, and for someone out of the country, both of those things would be about as passingly familiar to you. Like someone mentioning the cliffs of dover to me. It's like "oh yeah that thing....I guess are cliffs somewhere...probably a place called dover? *shrugs* Yeah, name is...something I've heard. Zero relevance to my life, so not really tracking it much."
It is a weird name, I'll grant you that. I've always had the problem of it conflicting with my favorite band of all time. So when I type "I love RUSH!" or 'Listening to RUSH currently" people think I'm a conservative shitbag, and I have to correct "No, I mean the canadian power trio band! Not that bloated shitbag"
