As a writer he is remembered most for his flamboyant and humorous style. He enjoyed employing action verbs to comically spin outlandish tales that were completely unbelievable, yet provided a unique viewpoint to accurately describe the underlying reality at hand. Thompson almost always wrote in first person narrative, and his stories became so colorfully contrived that they easily slipped into the realm of fiction; however, the basic framework of the story he told was very often true.
Thompson’s writing style and 'Gonzo Journalism' has been widely imitated; his influence on American Writers of the latter half of the 20th century is undeniable.
In his writing, he cultivated the persona of a dangerously absurd, drug-crazed journalist bent on comic self-destruction. While his fictional persona largely mirrored his actual life, Thompson noted that he sometimes felt obligated to live up to the fictional self that he had created.

“What do I think of the Tri-lateral commission, well, let’s see
First they’re rich.. Secondly, they’re powerful because they’re rich.. It doesn’t necessarily make them smart. Nor does that make them dangerous. They’re just smart enough to be embarrassed by the sort of thing that makes them dangerous.”

The interviewer and the interviewee are both unintelligible. Thompson writes some prose that's pretty wild, but I've never heard a single interview when he had anything important or interesting to say.
@killerkinahn4717
He's a realist, a true legend, what he said then is still prevalent today, culture yoself boi listen to some of his other and more audible shit
@erc9468
@KillerKinahn Relevant? How do you know what the hell he is saying? He is completely unintelligible.
Whatever neurons were firing years before had long been extinguished by the toxins that he compulsively poured into his body.
