In my time we took whatever we had, and school was warm, and there was food, a playground, and sometimes fun stuff. More than we got at home, growing up poor. And we learned respect. Or else.

"This country was bought, sold and paid off a long time ago." As an Indian who once lived in the US and who has made an effort to study American history, I can say that truer words have never been spoken. It came from a so-called comedian who actually seems to be a prophet..
@@katashley1031 Good observation.. but unfortunately our history as human beings is one of invasion, conquest and brutality. Take my country India itself as an example. We existed for almost two and a half millennia as an overwhelmingly Hindu civilization before Islam even existed as a religion. India had no religion other than Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism back then.. today it is home to 200 million plus Muslims.. only Indonesia and Pakistan have more Muslims than India... How did this happen? Through Islamic invasion and rule of India for nearly 350 years We are all fallen people... Human history is replete with brutality to each other.
@@katashley1031 I don't see anyone who supports anything doing that for anyone else. Maybe a handful of groups that actually give aid but most just pocket the money and take tax breaks for their fake charity. Zoom out from single issues or your political leaning and you'll understand carlin better.
Indians in American history were not loving peaceful people . They constantly fought each other , killed , raped and even owned African slaves . Lets understand real true history not a narrative with an agenda .

People are discomforted by me when they try to lure me into a political debate, when they realize that I'm immune of whatever stance they are rooted in because my values, and belief system lie far outside the staged dichotomy of the two-party system.
You and me both. The amount of dates I’ve pissed off by simply saying I don’t believe in politics, I can’t even keep count at this point. Last week at soccer this guy couldn’t accept that I don’t believe in politics, my reasoning being that it’s a distraction from the fact that corporations run the show. His argument was that everything was political in one way or another and that even not believing in politics is political. Seriously. Our debate drew the attention of a couple more guys who played with us, and soon enough they got angry that I don’t vote or believe in politics. I left when my head started to hurt. People have lost the plot entirely.
@@Men_of_Tomorrow You don't care about politics but you do care about corporations? You do realize that corporations use politics to "Run the show" as you put it right? I get not being drawn into the old Right vs Left debate. But saying you "Don't believe in politics" not only doesn't make sense. It makes you sound ignorant since you just proudly declared how you care about what corporations are doing. Your head was hurting because people where asking you to think critically and critique your own views and beliefs. That happens to people who don't really believe anything and are told what to think.
Thank goodness, I’m 27y old; I’ve never voted & never have had the sudden urge to go vote, I’ve always felt like the whole system was rigged regardless of who was chosen. Feels good to read other people’s comments & know I’m not the only person who feels this way. “It’s a big club, & you ain’t in it”
This video came to me at the most perfect time bringing such great relief...I've been criticized by my family for not ever voting especially this election. I've always felt in my heart it's not right like a huge scam. I'm happy to see my intuition may be right 👏👏
Facts! I stopped voting in 2018. I used to be an election judge ( for 12 years). I also served in the carcasses. too. Carlin was ahead of his time. Pure genius.
He’s talking about Blackrock & Vanguard. He was definitely ahead of his time and is speaking on what H.L Mencken has said about Education on the System not allowing kids to think critically.
In an episode of South Park there is a line that sums up what political elections are all about: "You will always have to choose between a vaginal douche or a turd sandwich." VERY accurate!
“Nobody seems to notice, Nobody seems to care” I got into comedy when I was a teenager. It saved my life. However these specials and particularly that line still haunts me to this day. All you can really do is take care of yourself and the people you love. So cheers! 🍻 till the wheels fall off my friends.
I noticed and I care, the elites currently are flooding the internet with religious phrases using their influencer network, probably priming us for religious control. Looking like were heading for theocracy.
yep, every country deserves the leader it gets. I've always wanted a" none of the above" option, and anybody polls below that, they need to NEVER be allowed to run again
The only reason why so many of us think in a defensive manner and fight amongst each other is because we're programmed to through the media and the BS that these psychopaths throw at us every day. Godspeed, my friend. Not all hope is gone. A lot of times these days you gotta dig deep, but it's there.

“It’s called the American dream because you have to be asleep to believe it” truer words have never been spoken
Thanks for running this again. Perfect timing. George. A real and honest voice of reason.
And sadly missed!
and its amazing how many democrats somehow believe that george carlin was only referring to republicans and not democrats when he was saying that the system is rigged , which is the same thing trump has been saying for years .
So is Kennedy- a voice of reason.
Please, give him a listen.
@@Horseluvver That's not reason, it's the mad ramblings of Robert's brainworm.
@@Horseluvver lol! You missed the whole point of the video. You're in for RFK and his brainworms? good lord, the stupidity
His words hit then and even more now...thank you Mr Carlin 😌🙏🙏🙏
Bad part is that it's true. Know your place You are not part of the club.
GC always spoke the truth. Both sides are to blame for the mess we are in now...
Most Definitely
Still hits in post-election 2024.
He was so right! And nobody seems to notice!

"This country was bought, sold and paid off a long time ago."
As an Indian who once lived in the US and who has made an effort to study American history, I can say that truer words have never been spoken. It came from a so-called comedian who actually seems to be a prophet..
Have you noticed that the people who support Israel wouldn't give up their homes or land for Native Americans? Not a single one.
@@katashley1031 Good observation.. but unfortunately our history as human beings is one of invasion, conquest and brutality.
Take my country India itself as an example. We existed for almost two and a half millennia as an overwhelmingly Hindu civilization before Islam even existed as a religion. India had no religion other than Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism back then.. today it is home to 200 million plus Muslims.. only Indonesia and Pakistan have more Muslims than India... How did this happen? Through Islamic invasion and rule of India for nearly 350 years
We are all fallen people... Human history is replete with brutality to each other.
@@katashley1031 I don't see anyone who supports anything doing that for anyone else. Maybe a handful of groups that actually give aid but most just pocket the money and take tax breaks for their fake charity. Zoom out from single issues or your political leaning and you'll understand carlin better.
Indians in American history were not loving peaceful people . They constantly fought each other , killed , raped and even owned African slaves . Lets understand real true history not a narrative with an agenda .
@@nagee76This is very sad, but extremely accurate.
"Meet the new Boss, Same as the old Boss" Pete Townshend "Won't Get Fooled Again"
Yes we will get fooled again. And again and again.
This reigns true so much now. Jeez, I miss this man...
Like him or not, this dude be spittin' facts, this dude be tellin' it like it is.
A friend of mine, his mom told me that " no child left behind" allowed her son to graduate from high school with a 6 th grade reading level. He is absolutely correct 💯
"It's a big club, and you ain't in it."
“Imagine how stupid the average person is. Then realize half of them are dumber than that.” One of my favorite quotes.
If only George could've lived to see what's going gone right now, lol. The material would have written itself.
Feel the same way. This time especially.
Well said Goerge. Why is it still relevant? Because it is the TRUTH!
George is timeless.. The TRUTH never dies, and funny because of it!
A timeless take on America.
Can't believe an American is so honest .
One of a kind
Imagine the material george would have today if he was still alive.....he would probably have a stroke !
He wouldn't be able to keep up with all the stories and BS going on today. He'd get burnt out after the first month of touring.
he would take a different approach, there's no beating the mainstream head on. approach the younger generations before they get sucked in to the machine
@@liberty610He would have a convenient "accident".
@@Skidderoperator whadda ya mean he missed? Hil-dog
The dude was a comedian through some of this countries roughest times. Today would mean very little to a man who's seen it all because it's been the same problems since time immemorial
Can this guy be more right?
Politicians are selected not elected.
And they are nothing more than actors playing a roll. Yes, it's scripted.... what do you think the teleprompters are for? They are reading thier scripts.
@@liberty610 exactly!👍👍👍
@@liberty610 And these idiot, incompetent, brain-dead politicians don't even write their scrips, nor do they run the country. So that begs the question...if politicians aren't running the country, then who is? Welcome to understanding the deep state. The USA is no longer a Democracy, we are no longer a Republic; the USA is an oligarchy.
@@liberty610 Awful actors at that yuk.
And it just completely baffles my mind how easily people are manipulated to endorce these slime balls. It's plain as day to few, and completely blind to most.
He was an angel sent to inform us about our current state of reality we're experiencing through humor. Thank you George Carlin!!
People are discomforted by me when they try to lure me into a political debate, when they realize that I'm immune of whatever stance they are rooted in because my values, and belief system lie far outside the staged dichotomy of the two-party system.
You and me both.
The amount of dates I’ve pissed off by simply saying I don’t believe in politics, I can’t even keep count at this point.
Last week at soccer this guy couldn’t accept that I don’t believe in politics, my reasoning being that it’s a distraction from the fact that corporations run the show.
His argument was that everything was political in one way or another and that even not believing in politics is political. Seriously.
Our debate drew the attention of a couple more guys who played with us, and soon enough they got angry that I don’t vote or believe in politics.
I left when my head started to hurt. People have lost the plot entirely.
LMAO, that's called being a rational human being.
Me too, my friend
@@Men_of_Tomorrow You don't care about politics but you do care about corporations? You do realize that corporations use politics to "Run the show" as you put it right?
I get not being drawn into the old Right vs Left debate. But saying you "Don't believe in politics" not only doesn't make sense. It makes you sound ignorant since you just proudly declared how you care about what corporations are doing.
Your head was hurting because people where asking you to think critically and critique your own views and beliefs. That happens to people who don't really believe anything and are told what to think.
Yup they pretend to hate each other when they’re actually bedmates
“Maybe it’s not the politicians who suck. Maybe there’s something else around here that sucks…..like the public”
"The Public sucks! Fuck hope!"
George Carlin.
Thank goodness, I’m 27y old; I’ve never voted & never have had the sudden urge to go vote, I’ve always felt like the whole system was rigged regardless of who was chosen. Feels good to read other people’s comments & know I’m not the only person who feels this way.
“It’s a big club, & you ain’t in it”
Most Definitely tbh I never cared about politics in any shape of form from both sides of the party.
Sad but true
This video came to me at the most perfect time bringing such great relief...I've been criticized by my family for not ever voting especially this election. I've always felt in my heart it's not right like a huge scam. I'm happy to see my intuition may be right 👏👏
Facts! I stopped voting in 2018. I used to be an election judge ( for 12 years). I also served in the carcasses. too. Carlin was ahead of his time. Pure genius.
Caucasus, not carcasses. Biiiigggg difference.
He’s talking about Blackrock & Vanguard. He was definitely ahead of his time and is speaking on what H.L Mencken has said about Education on the System not allowing kids to think critically.
I feel like this is even more applicable now then he could have ever imagined 7:15
Wisdom. And someone who wasn’t afraid to point out the way it really is. And to do it with comic delivery. Brilliant.
George spoke the truth and is still so relevant today. Love and miss you, George.
Brilliant. He saw the truth long before it became apparent to the rest of us!
In an episode of South Park there is a line that sums up what political elections are all about: "You will always have to choose between a vaginal douche or a turd sandwich." VERY accurate!
"The American Dream, because you have to be asleep to believe it!!!" ......Love hearing Truth!!!
I love this ! So so so so true what he is saying here. Miss ya George.
“Nobody seems to notice, Nobody seems to care” I got into comedy when I was a teenager. It saved my life. However these specials and particularly that line still haunts me to this day. All you can really do is take care of yourself and the people you love. So cheers! 🍻 till the wheels fall off my friends.
🍻 Cheers to you,brother!
I noticed and I care, the elites currently are flooding the internet with religious phrases using their influencer network, probably priming us for religious control.
Looking like were heading for theocracy.
I wonder what he would’ve thought of the big orange monkey. He was way before his time. RIP George, we sure do miss you.
George carlin dropping some truth bombs
Mark Twain - 'If voting made any difference they wouldn't let us do it.'
Unconditional freedom requires individual responsibility from all of us. We are the country.
"To live outside the law, one must be rigorously honest".
yep, every country deserves the leader it gets.
I've always wanted a" none of the above" option, and anybody polls below that, they need to NEVER be allowed to run again
"One of a Kind"! ❤ RIP George!
Another good reason not to vote is your vote will never decide the election
Def wasn't a comedian, he was a philosopher.
ROFL this cliche is hilarious.
This whole comment thread gives me hope. Thank you for uploading this and thank you, all. Don’t forget that we aren’t each other’s enemy.
The only reason why so many of us think in a defensive manner and fight amongst each other is because we're programmed to through the media and the BS that these psychopaths throw at us every day.
Godspeed, my friend. Not all hope is gone. A lot of times these days you gotta dig deep, but it's there.
People here will laugh and then will go vote. Again and again.
I vote none of the above
People vote.... things change or they don't. People don't vote.... things change or they don't. Like he said, it doesn't matter
