It took a brilliant man with a good dose of courage to illuminate the sad tendencies of society, so we could see and discuss them with out being deeply saddened by them. I miss you Mr. Carlin...
I am taking the opportunity here to say "Chapeau" to the late George Carlin. A dazzling and insightful fellow who knew how to convey, while putting his ideas forth and make you laugh in the process. Mr. Carlin zealously delivered his controversial and spirited presentations without looking at notes which demonstrated a remarkable knowledge of history, cultures, and capability to memorize an enormous amount of information, facts, and stories old and recent. George Carlin was simply "one of a kind" Thanks to the Internet; we can today appreciate and value his work as he brightens up the globe with laughter. George; the world misses you and will never be the same without you!
too many people are spooked by the topic of suicide as the basis for jokes. What's spooky is that this bit has only become more relevant with the recent outbreak of posting the Suicide Prevention hotline number on your social media accounts. The only cure for suicide is living. might as well laugh while you're doing it.
suicide hotline number on your social media? never seen that. once people understand it's perfectly alright to commit suicide then you realize you don't have to, you're free.
The best way to improve the human gene pool is to kill all the narcissists and psychopaths. They are the source of all the world's problems from war to genocide to wealth inequality/feudalism. Many of them work on Wall Street.
Sean Michaels Most geniuses are psychopathic (no seriously just look it up). If you remove all psychopaths you remove the majority of high IQ people. Lol
Many people weakly belief in and rely on a “faith in god” to get them through the day and then they foolishly attribute both of their successes AND failures to God’s will. To be quite honest, if one observes the “real world” that we live in, one can clearly see that if God actually does exist, then he seems to play favorites. He cares deeply about some and doesn’t give a rat’s ass about other people. For example, religious people like to say that “God is just” to which I think to myself oh fuck here we go again! First of all, if this “God” figure was really just, wouldn’t that include being fair? To me, justice and fairness are two sides of the same coin and certainly if we look at the world around us, we can see that there is a big flaming pile of unjust and unfair bullshit happening every day. For starters, “God” doesn’t let you choose almost all of the factors that largely determine whether or not you will “succeed” or “Fail” in this life. Your place of birth, your parents, your genetic makeup, your socioeconomic status, the school system that you go through, and your upbringing are all out of your control. While some kids are born into wealth, others are born into poverty. Lack of fairness in my eyes means lack of justice which throws the “God is Just” argument out the window.
Albert Ahlf Totally agree if we do not consider karma and reincarnation.. if those two are real then it would make little more sense, but I think that would contradict Christian beliefs..
>To be quite honest, if one observes the “real world” that we live in, one can clearly see that that there's a lot of satanists out there, especially in the top "clubs" but that requires to look at the real world, not at what the tv presents as reality
Albert Ahlf, you said a key phrase toward the end of your rant. "In my eyes." And you are exactly correct. You are looking at the entire situation through YOUR eyes. You don't see things through God's eyes. Therefore, your understanding is extremely Limited.
16-39 nowadays. Keeping from suiciding due to bestial capitalism grabbing your throat feels rough. If you are trying to remain debt-free when you are young that is. What I do not get is this push for consumerism when the majority of middle/poor classes are being forced into poverty. USA is not the land of plenty when the 1% have all the resources to waste, while rights and needs go to scraps. The hopeless to me are the unpatriotic, who comprise most CEO's of big name companies who put nothing back into USA. To the tax-dodgers who run away to offshore havens. Who are you benefitting? Your ego? To the defense budget whores who think we all want war al the time. Those people have a plan to make everyone depressed sooner or later. Freeze in heaven, burn in hell.
I don't see what capitalism has to do with America's problems. We aren't actually a purely capitalist country, and in my opinion, we could fix most of our problems simply by transitioning towards a small government, getting rid of all these alphabet soup agencies that serve no vital purpose that exist solely to convince the people they need to pay more tax to fund a bunch of horseshit that won't have any beneficial affect on them whatsoever, more economic freedom, lower taxes, staying out of wars that have nothing to do with ensuring national security, abolishing affirmative action and minority/gender quotas, stamping out any form of an attempt at equality of outcome, far right wing government in regards to economics and a very libertarian social order (so pretty much just libertarianism in a nutshell), close the immigration floodgates, if we can accomplish all that (not gonna happen) America would truly be great again. But there's way too many retards for that.
dochmbi Stoicism is a great philosophy, but it seems like you use it to just cope, and nothing more. That mindset, when enough people adopt it, is what causes entire civilizations to collapse.
"Sometimes the medicine makes one of them commit suicide and that depresses the shit out of the rest of them!" That's why I don't take medication. Tried it for a while and made me worse than I already was!
pantslizard There is now a higher amount of job openings than there are homeless people in the US, thanks to the guy everybody hates with a burning passion, Trump. Lol
I cant decide which i like better. George Carlin the silly, happy young comedian or George Carlin the Bitter, complaining old comedian. Im gonna have to go with the young Carlin.. He was actually funny ALL tbe time instead of intermittently funny during a bitter rant.
that last part about getting young people into sucide by calling it extreme liveing makes me think of the videos with kids climbing structures and hanging off with one hand and no safty equipment then they put it up on youtube
And what would be the point of the second death penalty If the guy's already dead from the first one exactly how do you plan on carrying out the second one? in order for you to execute him again you would have to find a way to bring him back to life and that's scientifically impossible. That second death penalty is completely redundant.
Well they need to deny because then their whole world falls apart. They will find out instead of worshipping Jesus, they stuck themselves on a cross because they worship their own philosophy first. They have to keep on believing they will go to heaven. Reagan will be one of the archangels and there will be segregation. Women will have more laws upon them. The angels will give drugs to the segregated population. Who doesn't want that?
herbandisaster _ Exactly what context makes this funny? you obviously don't have a loved one that's a victim of this topic! Hope is the drive that moves mankind, I Hope you never lose yours and I'm quite sure you won't be laughing!
Your pesonal ties to the topic are irrelevant. I've seen comments from many people who were victims of these topics that he jokes about saying they found it hilarious
If more Germans had shared his cynicism, the holocaust never would have happened. North Korea's leaders would fall. Cynicism is what allows men to lynch the psychopaths and turn against their leaders. There is no shame in being reasonably cynical.
Sean Michaels Too much cynicism often leads to nihilism, which almost always leads to inaction. The only thing necessary for the bad guys to win is for the good guys to do nothing.
Sean Michaels I really don't see how more cynicism would've prevented the Holocaust though lol. Can you elaborate? The Germans were extremely downtrodden and cynical after WW1. Cynicism might have even helped nudge them towards genocidal levels of anger.
@@PalashaGabarra I'd rather be a nihilist than a good little Republican wage slave like you. Why are you watching Carlin? He's a leftist.He wouldn't have liked you
I follow you there. He makes incredible points...but how he delivers this...the whole standup act before he died....sounded like him telling off the entire human race. He really gave up on humans.
Yeah, he seemed like he had just become a really pissed off old hippie at the end of his life. Still, to me it doesn't take away from the fact that he spent most of his life being probably the funniest comedian who ever lived.
He just went full on misanthrope. No stakes in the outcome as he put it in one interview. The problem I find with this is and how it effected his humour is he didn't really care and it reveals either a bit of ignorance on his part and/or any bit compassion. Don't get me wrong, I work in retail. I absolutely understand the tendency to write off the human race and even like the black humour that may come from it... But I still stop short of 'checking out', because the fact is I am human for better or worse and I like Carlin have benefited from the social structure of the human race. Unless I decided to live in seclusion with no technology I don't truly get to check out. And if I claim to check out while still enjoying the convenience and society we've built then I'm just lying to myself. My point is, if your position has gotten to point where you don't care to have any understanding or empathy or compassion with other members then why should they accord you these things? See for me a joke falls flat if it reveals a lack of connection or understanding from the speaker. Yeah there's good reason to distrust pharmaceutical companies and the for profit marketing motive, but depression isn't a made up thing along with other mental conditions. These people don't exist in a vacuum. So when a huge demographic of people are casually written off as wastes of space because he doesn't care to understand then I just can't connect with this joke. And I'm even somewhat repulsed by it. And you dear reader may contest I missed the point of the narrative of the scenario which is to illustrate how screwed up and callous cable network TV is and by extension the people who watch it... No I haven't. He still uses these groups as examples of people to sacrifice to the pyramid of hopelessness. It comes across to me as people he'd personally write off if he ran things, but it's presented through the veneer of this bit. And it's not like he hadn't done this same premise in a previous routine. Watch the bit he did on the prison free for all pay per view. Maybe he didn't actually think this. It's not really made all that clear if I'm supposed to take it in complete jest. I don't think I am. The routine is smarter than a throwaway reference or gag I'm just supposed to dismiss. Still a great comedian, but I still part ways with him on some things.
It took a brilliant man with a good dose of courage to illuminate the sad tendencies of society, so we could see and discuss them with out being deeply saddened by them. I miss you Mr. Carlin...
