Personally I never followed Rush when I was younger. I can remember my parents briefly mentioning him and my Democrat uncle hating him. I remember an old Beavis and Butthead episode where Mike Judge mocked him.
After reading his Wikipedia profile I saw he had made some stupid comments during his career but he was no serial murderer/rapist. He was just outspokenly and highly opinionated conservative.
Now I personally can’t stand the likes of Nancy Pelosi, AOC and activists like Shaun King. But I know I wouldn’t post hashtags #burninhell if one of them passed away. In my opinion if you are the type to piss on graves you are not doing yourself any divine favors if there is an afterlife. It’s disgusting.
Anyway I could see a very small contingent of alt right Qanon morons acting this way if a prominent leftist passed. But I just don’t see the average moderate conservative celebrating deaths of activists/politicians they don’t like.
The only conservative commentator I follow closely is Ben Shapiro. I know he has been called all sorts of disgusting bs inclusive a “nazi” by GOOGLE executives and the guy is a Orthodox Jew!
