Apparently, the mysticism surrounding Jim Morrison was very annoying to Thom Yorke at the beginning of his career.
In a 1992 interview, he stated:

>I’ve got this pathological disrespect for Jim Morrison and the whole myth that surrounds Jim Morrison, simply because it affects and has affected the people in bands and in the rock business, in that they think they have to act like fucking prats in order to live up to the legend. […] Jim Morrison’s a fat, talentless bastard and he’s dead. And none of that means anything. It’s more important just to have your own voice within the business than to live up to this thing that you’re supposed to live up to.

Besides some disaster concerts, Jim didn’t really act like prat that much. Sounds like he got his impression of Jom through that fake headcannon biopic Oliver Stone made

He influenced Siouxsie, Patti Smith, Danzig, Nick Cave, Hope Sandoval..to name a few. Who the fuck is Thom Yorke.

Because he was pretty much chad and that made a lot of people pissed off. Lou Reed used to talk shit about the doors because he was upset that Nico was in love with Jim Morrison.

Crosby died a couple of years ago. He's seething in the grave?

Someone who didn't release a fully good album until 2016 and then never made music again.

If it's jealousy then why is it specifically him? Is he just that good? The problem was that he didn't live up to his image and that's why he pissed people off. Jerry Garcia said that his entire persona was directly ripped from Mick Jagger on the Rolling Stones 1966 US tour. So why not hate Mick Jagger then? I think they hated Jim Morrison because he was basically an actor and added nothing to music in the full scheme of things.

Jerry Garcia is a fat fuck talking out of his ass, Mick Jagger himself asked Jim Morrison on how to handle big crowds. Also being a great vocalists adds nothing to the music?

Jim was by nature a shy reserved guy, but he purposely tried to bring out the worst side of himself both on stage and socially by drinking a lot. He was generally hated when he went out in public
