    George Carlin saw the big picture. I joined the Army at age 17 and served for 8 years. Now, my son is 16. There is no way in hell I would recommend that he enlist. Fight for what? Oil companies? Politicians? If push comes to shove, we have a nuclear deterrent-which I hope we never need-but let’s let our kids grow to be more than cannon fodder for corporations.

      I’m glad that I never enlisted in the military when I had the chance to when I was young. I’m 41 now.
      I was in NJROTC in my first semester back in high school, but I got kicked out all because I wasn’t performing up to their expectations. But they did me a favor.
      The more I learn about it, the more I realize that it’s all a big sham, all in the facade of “serving & dying for our country.”
      All of these people in the military that are doing so are *_really_* serving & dying for the rich politicians, the wealthy elites & corporations who funds money for their money laundering, proxy wars while instigating wars on many countries.

      I'm a Marine Corps peacetime veteran and I probably wouldn't serve again because of my love for this great country that has fallen so much in the 2 1/2 years. This country is ran like a big corporation and not like a government should run a country. I still believe capitalism and democracy is the best form of government but it has been corrupted over 75-80 years. Ever since the end of WW2 when the big corporations started giving senators and congressman earmarks which is just big cash bonuses to vote the way of the company and not the man. It's been a long time to corrupt the greatest country in the world and us regular people are too poor, uninformed and just fucked out of effectively changing it. I'm trying to start by voting Trump. If I have learned anything about the government it is the thing, person, or policy they talk the worst about is the one that's best for the American public and not the elites. They have been talking mad shit about Donald J. Trump since 2015. I can relate because I used to be a Trump hater til 2019 when the left started getting crazy with the trans ideology and crazy policies. I had to step back, remove my hate for Trump and look at the whole picture. Then it only took about 20 minutes of my own research not from the mainstream media but other credible sources to find out Trump wasn't racist. That was my main issue I thought he was racist because I heard it twice a day from the lying ass news. I stopped watching all MSM except for the Gutfeld show on FOX. Fox isn't really all that right wing they are there to appear right wing to give the American public the illusion of choice.

      Hope is a good thing. And Jewish reflections of the Messiah are the most beautiful in all the world. ❤
      If we are someone who thinks we have to 'earn our soul', we may have missed the point that our soul is a free gift from God. Treasure our soul with our whole heart and give it carefully back to God when we are done with it. ❤
      I think a free exchange of information is something to strive for. But I think so much confusion mushrooms into chaos when no clear explanation is given. The Scriptures often record God being coy when He speaks. For example, when God asked Adam and Eve where they were, it's not like God did not know where they were.
      However, in the book of Habakkuk, the prophet says to God, “Your eyes are too pure to look on evil” Is this passage from Genesis where God cannot see Adam and Eve an example of God's eyes being too pure to see them? I am trying to understand this from a distinctly Hebrew Perspective. But admittedly my understanding may be imperfect. I suspect this passage in Genesis may be from God the Father's Perspective.
      According to John 5:22-23, "Moreover, the Father judges no one, but has entrusted all judgment to the Son, that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father. Whoever does not honor the Son does not honor the Father, who sent him."
      Who has gone up to heaven and come down? Whose hands have gathered up the wind? Who has wrapped up the waters in a cloak? Who has established all the ends of the earth? What is his name, and what is the name of his son? Surely you know!
      I suspect something much deeper is going on now in history. Strength, according to Tolkien, manifests itself most clearly not in the exercise of power but rather in the willingness to give it up. When you are moved by the Spirit you manifest love, joy, peace, forbearance, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. These are the weapons we use in battle. Against such things there is no law.

    George was a brilliant political satirist. He had incredible insight into american society and was spot on and his words still are because NOTHING HAS CHANGED in politics decade after decade. It has only slid closer to darkness/fascism these days. He was sounding an alarm in a digestible form. His humor was the spoon full of sugar to help the medicine go down.

      @@prernarawat8443 I agree Third wave feminism is antithetical to anything to do with equal rights and empowering women. I don't identify as a feminist, but I do have respect for people like Cristina Hoff Summers and I do respect strong, intelligent women (My mother is one after all and my Father is my hero.) Third wave feminism contradicts itself; and thus, as a movement--falls flat on it's gender fluid, non-binary, gender pronoun having ass. It operates under the guise of strength and equality for women and at the same time; wants special treatment and like every woman should be treated like delicate flowers, with tender fragile peddles. Well, which one is it? because too opposing forces cannot occupy the same space harmoniously. These snowflakes are so flimsy; that any person, be they man or woman, who comes forward and challenges the ideology, threatens the very foundation and so; they quiver in their boots and rather than defend their position--they have to resort to mob mentality tactics: Smear campaigns, trying to get people fired, fabricating bullshit. What a bunch of pussies. Didn't anybody ever tell these pricks that there are no such things as "safe spaces?" The world,for all of it's beauty, mystery and wonder; is also harsh, at times cruel and can be brutal. Not to drag this on: but there are documentaries out there about plants and other elements of nature that can and do, very easily kill people; that sort of throws that whole, living spiritually with nature and all that into question--to me, anyway. This goes for our modern society too: it can be a harsh place. As a kid: one of the things I was taught was respect and that it is something that is earned: you don't just give it out by default.; so perhaps the whole idea of "safe spaces, without exception-is totally the wrong approach (of course it is) It is more a matter of respect, earned through action and communication. I'm a physically handicapped person, with cerebral palsy myself and one of the things I really hate about this PC BS: is transablism. People who intentionally cripple themselves because of how they "feel." Most people don't even understand their feelings, to begin with. I think there is a distinction between feelings and emotions: an emotion is a state of being, while the feeling is an objective expression of that state and one is in correspondence with the other: it's like a feedback loop. Much like a lot of language; people use terms, without always understanding what they mean or the origin. Just like we have drug addicts and alcoholics-people are not encouraged to enable them; yet some doctors, have actually carried out these transabled procedures. You want to talk about somebody being an enabler of illness? Ironic isn't it, given the Hippocratic oath. Using is something that I do because I have to and I'll probably always have to. I'm cool with it; it's a lifelong thing; but it isn't something I'd wish on anyone else; not even my enemies. If you think it's easy, you gotta another thing comin'. It doesn't discriminate either; black, white, gay, straight, male, female, human or animal. It can happen to anyone. And when it does: there's no going back. Still, these transabled people are being encouraged to intentionally cripple themselves. Fuck off! As long as that's being allowed though; I say bring on the trans-humanism, bring on the nanomachines that can repair damaged tissue and organs, allow stem cell therapies to help the paralyzed to walk. Besides, allot of these kooks today, like to sing the praises of abortion-almost like it's a trivial subject. I saw one you tube video, where a fat woman said: "I'm going to have 10 or 20 abortions." Well, holy shit! No values, no morals, no empathy. Just narcissistic, self-entitled, self-serving, psychopathic bullshit. I should stop; but I could go on and on about this type of stuff. SJW's like to take minorities and use them; to further an agenda and in doing so: they tarnish or damage those minorities: they are not a voice for them. Sjw's poison and taint everything they touch. If they all, stood around the Grand Canyon, held hands and jumped in at the count of 3; how many people would be sad, I've wondered? Relax, that's called humor, it's the visual you get in your mind that's humor; a bunch of PC robots, standing around, holding hands, singing some song, before they all jump. They are a cult after all. Look, I get it: this is this generation's "revolution"-but I worry fourty years from now; when they real feel the brunt of what could happen. I know they consider themselves to be like flower children or something; but they ain't. They're being manipulated and used by Globalists and they don't even realize it. I didn't want to believe in a Globalist conspiracy: Well, fuck me! We see more and more of it, with every passing day.

      @@therealcanadianrageyt4595 oh my god , this is one of the most properly formed comment i have ever seen. First , I do not even know what problems you might be facing in your day to day life because of celebral palsy, you should be playing the victim card more than these privileged bitches . They think they deserve everything in this world without any talent whatsoever . I dont call myself feminist doesnt mean i wont stand up for injustice . I mean i have done more for equality and empowerment for human kind that these self proclaimed feminists . They are nowadays sexualizing kids for god sake and bringing up their kids with genderless mentality , can you imagine how fucked up that kid will be when he grows up . And there was this woman telling on youtube 'i kill my children' adn everybody around her was yassss . I was like wtf bitch , woman like you have disturbed kids or kids who blow up schools . They all wanna be treated like princess and call it equality . For god sake a feminist was saying i ask my kid's consent before changing his diaper and the kid is what 8 months ? . i have lost hope . I dont speak up on public platforms . I just laugh when they cry when they are being treated euqally . My brother walks with stick for 10 years , he has never dated ... he is good looking , smart , intelligent but the rise in number of false rape cases , he do not even talk to girls . He is like precaution is better than cure . Even i tell him to stay away from girls , you never know who turns out to be a feminist

      prerna rawat but calling feminism “cancer” isn’t constructive at all. I agree, it’s cancer, but that’s not a statement I’d use as an offering to refine their “movement”
