In heaven we'll all be in a giant auditorium watching it together. Michael will be there with us. Either that or when Musk and Bezos inject us all into the matrix. Maybe we could make that work.
I like to imagine he was watching, keeled over laughing. Either way he would have loved to see it, seems like something he would have done were he still around.
It's weird, the impact of a single person can probably never be truly seen until they're gone. It's truly bittersweet. Bitter in the sense that they're gone, sweet in that someone can still bring us happiness long after they're gone. Hopefully we continue to see the impact of people like Michael brooks for years to come.
@@mariomario4068 you spelled subjective wrong. You can't go in on your deep bootlicking feelings and then use objective to support your rubber sucking. We get it you love fascism and authoritarianism.
RIP Michael Brooks. He was a one of a kind, an encyclopaedia of political knowledge and an understanding of the left’s struggle. We are less without him.
His passion was and is unmatched. He brought so much to the online left, I hope we can all take his empathy and international awareness into our own lives and advocacy.
“When you see Donald Trump out there, doesn’t a little part of you think that America deserves to be taken over by Jihadists? Keepin it 100” - N.O.I. Obama (Michael Brooks)
"It's a tiered system. Black people and Muslims get the most guns. Iranian people get the most guns because Iran, obviously. Favourite country in the world." Every time he started his Obama impressions I would lose it lmfaoo
He was great at dumbing-down the Israel-Palestine conflict. We are sorely lacking people like him in this time of lies and misinformation. His passing leaves a gap much larger than that most people could fill.
@@danielr.y5261 Yea it does. I think he was the sweetest, most genuine, well informed and though out person I've ever listened to. Had the ability to keep a conversation civil and humorous even when the other side was talking nonsense.
Not long discovered this channel. Was so saddened to hear of Michael’s passing. I’ve now watched hundreds of your / his clips and laugh out loud through tears ! RIP Michael. Love to all. Andy - Perth, Australia. X
I'm from Bangladesh, I came across Majority Report back in 2018. I wasn't that interested in US politics back then and the only reason I was regularly watching Majority report was because of Michael's impressions. Boy, I miss him. I was never been to the US and I don't think I ever will yet I consume shit tons of US political commentary on youtube now. Thanks to Michael of course 😂.. He will always be one of my favourites TH-cam personalities. Lol, this is probably my longest and cringiest comment on youtube. I just wanted to say how much I liked him.
I discovered the Majority Report maybe four years ago, and Michael with Sam, Matt and Kelly got me hooked immediately. Then, while watching the show, it felt almost like I'd come home from a long day to a comforting and hilarious conversation. Topical and intelligent, the show has become an inspiration. Michael was a true talent and the lens through which he translated the world was communicated with an infectious and transformative appeal. The man was an American treasure, a folk hero, a smart man who spoke on disparate and innumerable ideals. He was great and he is missed.
If I’m honest I didn’t discover you until Hasan talked about your appearance on Stephen Crowders channel, absolutely hilarious, however I almost immediately started watching you and Michael and he seemed like such an amazing character let alone political commentator. He was so funny and when I found out he passed it was incredibly saddening. It is so incredible to see your appreciation of his life and work, and although I may have not have known Michael during the time he was with you, I still am grateful for the life he lived, and the message he sent that likely has helped, and will continue to help, so many
May I ask what "rest in power" means? I see that used a lot but don't really understand it. I thought the point of death (from a spiritual angle at least) was to return to a state of peace, a release from our earthly suffering. What does "power" mean in this context? Sorry if I'm just dumb.
@Gage Acosta Okay. I read that it was originally a saying in Black and queer communities, now it is a more mainstream phrase. I'd argue, theoretically, that a person could rest in peace knowing beforehand that those who remain will honor their legacy and see to it that their vision lives on after they physically depart.
The “Fuck you, forever” bit with that voice is still one of my favorite things this show ever did. Rest in power, Michael. God he’d have SO much to say over the last year.
I thought Michael brooks was just some crazy progressive comedian with a funny laugh. I had no idea how brilliant he was until watching clips of him after his death. Hate I didn't have a chance to honor this man when he was around.
When I first started watching a few years ago, I would hear Michael Brooks with his impressions and laughing and again with his impressions cutting Seder off at times in the background. You could see Seders look of forced patience and I would think, “Who is that guy?” (While also laughing at all the shenanigans going on) I would think, “Why does Seder put up with this guy?” Then after watching more of the show I realized that Michael was on the same level as Seder. So much knowledge and empathy for human kind. I wish I could’ve known about him for longer but glad I was able to watch him for the time I did. Left is best ❤️
For the longest time I didn't know Michael Brooks was Jewish. So seeing Sam get flustered during Michael's Jewish stereotype impressions of Sam always made me go "LMAO what the fuck?" I thought maybe Michael really did find Sam's snuff film collection or maybe he was Sam's nephew (like that episode of The Office with Evan Peters). I miss Michael's humor terrorizing people on this show 🙁
That “When is Santorum going to prison for 27 years” joke from Sam “Failed Comedian” Seder was funnier than any “joke” Steven Crowder has ever made on his show or off his show
He has become my favourite figure on the left, and I only discovered him and you guys months after his passing. He truly was a titan on the left when it came to combatting right wing rhetoric in debates. His man-handling of Sargon is a stand-out moment for me.
Dude I started watching the Majority Report only for Michael Brooks. He changed many beliefs I had and taught me so much. Made me love watching and learning with him. Made me the lefty I am. Rest in Power ❤️
He annoyed me at first, but over time I came to have a tremendous amount of respect for his intelligence, and his commitment the greater good. We need more people like Mr. Brooks.
Michael brooks was the first (and only) person that I don’t personally know that I’ve ever mourned. He truly could never be replaced. Rest in power Michael
Love Michael Brooks. I was seriously sad for a while when I first heard this. I always appreciated the depth of knowledge he had. As someone who pays attention peripherally to many of these issue, I always looked to him to help orient my perspective on things.
I felt a connection w Michael. I really miss him. I was reminded the other day of a quote of his, "be ruthless with systems, be kind with people". I think that says it all. And in addition to that great attitude, he helped his audience take a wide view, learning more about the entire world rather than just their own backyard. And he helped us understand the connections between our own home and wider global affairs, which fits perfectly with his "be kind w people" approach. And also, as we all know, he was so funny and blended that so well w his politics. What a guy. 👍 you're missed, Michael. Take care, buddy.
Oh my God. Its been a year already. I can never get over his passing... I'm still so shook. I miss him every single time I watch a video of yours... And same Sam, I miss his laugh the most. The world post-michael seems so quiet, like, laughing without him feels like we're missing something. He created joy here and I agree with Sam completely, he shaped this show for what it is today... And when he passed away I couldn't bring myself to watch you guys for months. Love you Sam and team. Michael will forever be missed 💕
I only watch the show on TH-cam, so I miss a lot. This is the first I've heard of Michael's death. I'm shocked. Gobsmacked. Heavy hearted. I noticed he was missing, but figured he was on assignment. Thank you, Michael for sharing with us, and Sam, Please thank Michael's family for sharing him with us.
"Long-time listeners of this program will be surprised that Michale ended that so quickly" LMFAO! XD Yeah, that checks out. Damn, it's been a year already...
I have come to believe that Michael was growing into the intellectual heart of progressive media... The one voice that could bring reason across the channels. Sam was saying some of us grew up with Michael... I think, for me, my views most certainly became more defined. He was just so lucid, so effective... I'll always be indebted to his work, his methods, and his authenticity.
Honestly, I didn’t believe it either!! I saw a video titled “RIP Michael Brooks”, or something like that, on The Serfs’ channel and thought it was a meme or something. I was like, “oh my, what did Michael do now? 🙄😃”. And it wasn’t until I saw it on this channel as well that I looked it up and realized he was really dead. It was just so quick and unexpected. Michael’s honestly the first media figure that I was like really aware of, and that I followed and really enjoyed the stuff he did, to die and I still have a hard time believing he’s gone at times. 😔😢
@@savannarbananar same! I saw a TYT video titled RIP Michael Brooks and I got giddy thinking Michael probably did prank or something and then Ana was crying and I remember just being completely speechless... I couldn't watch it... I paused it and it took me a while to come to terms with it. I still can't believe sometimes that he's gone. 😭
I cry every time I think about Michael being gone. I have definitely descended into a depressive state since he died. It is giving me so much joy and inspiration to see his old videos. Thank you, MR crew. ❤️
When Right Wing Mandela called in during the Gavin McInnes fake name segment, saying that his name was Bob i absolutely lost it. That's how i want to remember Michael with joy, laughs and empathy, the values that he brought into this world everyday of his existence. R.I.P Michael Brooks, gone but NEVER forgotten
We dont often remember to measure the impact of a person’s impact on our lives until they are gone. Michael was an amazing person, he is dearly missed.
I loved his infectious laughter and the fact that he could be absolutely hilarious, but also put on a serious face and give some of the best nuanced breakdowns particularly dealing with foreign policy that I've ever heard. He was great at breaking down the particulars of issues I was completely ill-informed on in a way that I could understand.
My favorite Majority Report moment was when they were talking about Alex Jones getting sued and Sam started doing an impression of Michael's impression of Sam. It was amazing.
@@ktsig287 There’s a video where Sam and Michael debated a self proclaimed libertarian who called into the show, the caller claimed that Bernie’s progressive agenda of health care for all, higher wages, etc. was immoral and the Michael broke out his best impression of all time, Satanic Bernie. Had me DYING of laughter, the thumbnail of the video was Bernie and Satan photoshopped in the background
His impressions of the 2016 Republican presidential candidates was infinitely enjoyable, esp his Ben Carson. Holy Shit that was gold! And in general Michael seemed to be a genuinely good person
Michael Brooks came to my house to talk to me about Medicaid expansion in Idaho. Iwas literally in psychosis, yelling about something when he came to my door. He was so nice and calmed me down, explained what Medicaid expansion was and I signed. At the time I was a libertarian but really I was a progressive who no longer trusted the government. Michael Brooks got me to look up leftists on TH-cam and essentially got me out of the alt-right algorithm. Anyways, At some point I made a comment to him about how nothing might ever get done in Idaho because it is such a far right, corrupt, and anti any programs. He did NOT like that and his mood changed and he said something like “If things don’t get done, it’s attitudes like that will be the reason.” Even though the conversation didn’t end well, it changed my political perspective, my perspective on how movements are done, my outlook on things for the positive. I wish he were around today for me to thank him
Damn, it's already been a year?! Seems like yesterday. You have touched more lives then you could of ever imagined. The world lost a real one! R.I.P. LEFT IS BEST!
I think about Michael Brooks nearly every day, what an amazing person. When I found out he had passed I was half way through making a video dunking on Dave Rubin’s book, inspired by Michael of course, I’ve never been so affected by the passing of someone I never met, it still feels unreal
Michael was an unrivaled expert of political comedy. He was a teacher of so many people, wish I had the opportunity to go to a live show before his passing.
Wow, never knew Michael was considering studying at LSE. Impressive. I only recently discovered TMR, but from what I've watched of Michael's content online he did a wonderful job. I can't imagine how much y'all miss him. RIP dude.
Wow i only started watching MR a few months ago but have seen and was always impressed with Michael Brooks’ commentary. I had no idea how i missed the fact that he had died suddenly a year ago. I just thought he was a humorous, witty, & well read commentator! RIP
Hey Michael, I wish you could be here to see how far we've come. Lula is free, we stopped Crowder's growth with a hilarious debate, there will be a general strike in October, we defeated Trump. If only you were here.
I get this deep pang of sadness every time I think about Michael, which I do all the time, because I am constantly reminded of his commentary and his comedy in the absurd world we inhabit. Rest in peace, comrade.
Michael Brooks never met me, never knew that I existed, and he might as well have saved my life. Rest in peace brother
Although Sam gatecrashing Crowder was hilariously funny I would have given anything to hear Michael in the background.
Rest in power, brother.
i can just imagine hearing him laugh his ass off on sams mic feed
In heaven we'll all be in a giant auditorium watching it together. Michael will be there with us.
Either that or when Musk and Bezos inject us all into the matrix. Maybe we could make that work.
I like to imagine he was watching, keeled over laughing. Either way he would have loved to see it, seems like something he would have done were he still around.
Michael would've laughed hysterically about that for months.
I love the imagining of these scenarios. It makes me smile.

Bitter in the sense that they're gone, sweet in that someone can still bring us happiness long after they're gone.

much love, that was very fun, I am sure he counted himself lucky to have spent the time he did with you all, I wish you fond memories
Miss his clarity and conviction. RIP Michael Brooks. You were truly one of a kind...
Damn, it's already been a year?! Seems like yesterday. You have touched more lives then you could of ever imagined. The world lost a real one! R.I.P. LEFT IS BEST!
I think about Michael Brooks nearly every day, what an amazing person. When I found out he had passed I was half way through making a video dunking on Dave Rubin’s book, inspired by Michael of course, I’ve never been so affected by the passing of someone I never met, it still feels unreal
Holy shit it's been a year? Fuck That's insane. Time flies
Rest in power to a true comrade. Brother Michael's cackle will be forever heard whenever Dave Rubin even ponders an idea.
Michael was an unrivaled expert of political comedy. He was a teacher of so many people, wish I had the opportunity to go to a live show before his passing.
Miss the guy. Very funny and insightful in the political realm.
The Dennis Miller stuff was always gold too.
So sorry for your loss :( he will not be forgotten and you guys are doing a great job in his stead :) Lots of love to you all ❤️
We miss him dearly.
Thinking of y’all ♥️
I never thought I'd say this, but I'm thankful for the positive influence of Rick Santorum. Rest in Power Michael.
Wow, never knew Michael was considering studying at LSE. Impressive. I only recently discovered TMR, but from what I've watched of Michael's content online he did a wonderful job. I can't imagine how much y'all miss him. RIP dude.
Wow i only started watching MR a few months ago but have seen and was always impressed with Michael Brooks’ commentary. I had no idea how i missed the fact that he had died suddenly a year ago. I just thought he was a humorous, witty, & well read commentator! RIP
Rip Michael Brooks. He was the reason I subscribed to Majority Report.
M Brooks my caucasian RIP❤❤
The greatest of all Michael's characters.... aside from right wing MLK when Sam censored him.
RIP
NOI Obama was brilliant too
I watch those Michael impressions compilation TH-cam videos at least once a month. They should have millions of views... Not a few thousand...
A year already...? Thank you guys for this :')
Hey Michael, I wish you could be here to see how far we've come. Lula is free, we stopped Crowder's growth with a hilarious debate, there will be a general strike in October, we defeated Trump. If only you were here.
My Goddess. Every time I see Michael's face or hear his voice or impressions I just shake my head in sadness. What a loss for the Left.
London's loss! Hi from London, missing Michael's presence still.
I get this deep pang of sadness every time I think about Michael, which I do all the time, because I am constantly reminded of his commentary and his comedy in the absurd world we inhabit. Rest in peace, comrade.
