People who are constantly called inspirational, when in reality were anything but.

This is not a slight on the "People Who inspire" thread, just playing devils advocate.
My ones are;

Nelson Mandela- Chinese trained terrorist, and name one thing he has done to improve the living conditions of black people in S Africa. He was not responsible for the removal of Apartheid, he was a figurehead, thats all.

John F Kennedy- Became President due to fathers connections with gangsters.
When wife Jackie Kennedy had miscarriage, he didn't even bother his arse to cancel his yacht holiday with his "girlfriend" real inspirational bloke. Because of constant whoring, was a total security risk. Kennedy was all about the appearance of caring, couldn't give a toss in reality

Mandela done a lot of good. It's the greed and mismanagement of South Africa that is destroying it now.

So he didn't do anything it's just his story inspired others? Wait... what's the name of the thread again?

Bieber, redicilously good looking with a one in a million voice, yet we're told to never say never and that people doubted him in his mere 14 years on earth before finding fame.

Every singer/popstar who people look up to and think are inspirational

Harvey Dent.

Hippies!

Zumo Bishop: I have it in good authority that his acting is so terrific that it's glorifying crime for all the impressionable youngsters who watch Fair City.

John Lennon

Pretty much everybody who's labelled as "inspirational" or "brave" in the papers.
Like those Siamese twins. They happened to be born stuck together so they must be brave

If they've inspired someone, they're inspirational! Maybe just not in your world, which means nothing in the scheme of things.

Don't give a shite about his sex life, to be honest, but what he did for equalality for blacks in America can't be overstated. Moreso than, say, Malcolm X who just came across as a complete racist. King is one of my heros.

Brendan O'Carroll - inspirational in the worlds of Joe Duffy and Derek Mooney.

I don't think I've ever, in real life or online, heard anyone say Justin Beiber was an inspiration to them

I get enough inspiration from the mirror.

Ditto. All he ever did was leech off other people's creativity and hard work so he could sell over-priced slave-labour produced tat to clueless magpies.
