about

I LOVE LENNY!!
He didn't deserve to be blacklisted which inevitably led to his spiraling financial troubles and heroin addiction. The US government went to war with him over censorship and they "won" biggly. The last pictures of him were a disgrace. Not because of how they found him but because journalists were allowed to take those grotesque pictures which I sarcastically dubbed their money shot. Vindicated in death if not in life, his legend outgrew the repressed 1950s culture and reached into the minds of future generations, not to mention countless comedians. Comedians are some of the bravest souls and he is a giant among them. RIP
