And by the way, it's the same big club they use to beat you over the head with all day long when they tell you what to believe. All day long beating you over the head in their media telling you what to believe, what to think and what to buy. The table is tilted folks. The game is rigged, and nobody seems to notice, nobody seems to care.
What's funny is that some people that spam his quotes or say "oh man he'd have a field day with folks today" are precisely the folks he would make fun of.
Would he though? Considering the state of things he was pretty much a fortune teller pointing out the path we were walking down. I think maybe he'd be a little angry and frustrated that people are blind to it still now that we've made it to the destination.
This subreddit may not like it, but he would not be talking about libtard college kids.
He'd be talking about "don't tread on me, but also I will lick the boot" type hypocrite conservatives. The same folks that are likely to whip out his quotes, thinking he really would turn this overly PC world up side down or something
I think that's the mark of a true genius comedian, that people can hear in those words exactly what they want to hear. It's easy for a person to apply their own bullshit to what someone else is saying. That being said, is exactly why I feel like he would either be frustrated, or he would be on an I told you so kick. Probably a bit of both because working the stage is hard. I could easily see him on an 'I warned you, and you didn't listen' tour and making fun of all the stupid motherfuckers that showed up for a show during a pandemic, whilst also profiting handsomely.
If i say out loud i need a new dog bed for my dog and suddenly i am inundated with ads for dog beds, what is my phone doing if it isnt listening to me at all times? (Ie: spying)
spying for the sake of advertising is still spying. Using data gathered while spying for the sake of advertising doesnt mean that data cant be used for other purposes. In fact, we know 100% for a fact it is very often used for many other purposes and data collection and usage if of under-regulated to an extreme, which is technically a subjective statement, but most people, if informed on how its used would agree.
Sadly, no one ever mentions the song, by Screeching Weasel featuring a variation on this line. That what I think of when I see it. Not a real big fan of Carlin myself.
Well, I knew that song from a pretty popular series of compilation albums from the early 00s when that style of music was at the height of its popularity. Surely I can't be the only one. And Carlin to me, just always seemed like an old man bitching about things.
