I love how when he talked about “the owners,” everyone went silent. Like they were in shock that someone was saying this on live television.
Or lived to say it.
@@Theomite Only for 3 years....
@@danielhawthorn6639 I always found that suspicious. I’m not a conspiracy theorist, but if you’re going to take out a guy for telling the truth and make it look like an accident, Carlin in his 70s after a couple of heart attacks would be the guy. He seemed very off in his last special. Not himself. I still wonder. Again, not a conspiracy guy per se, but it is suspicious.
@@christhornycroft3686Carlin was a conspiracy theorist, stop using a term that was designed by the government to invalidate people’s perspectives and the truth.
@@christhornycroft3686 Well, "they" didn't have to kill George Carlin. Because they always can count on their biggest ally ... ignorance.
Arguably the best satirist of the 20th century. I feel lucky to have existed alongside him as a human. He’ll go down as one of our most provocative and insightful thinkers with the foulest mouth ever seen.
As a American, I can %100 say that George Carlin is right on the money 👍 He’s a comedian but also makes you think. Please continue reacting to George Carlin 👍 but you might want to brace yourself for his other material 🤣
Literally everything George Carlin has been saying about the USA becomes more and more true as time goes on 💯😂 his words are more true today than ever before lol
I have fully embraced Carlinism into my life. Couldn’t be happier lol
As long as you don't pray to him. You wouldn't want to impose? Lol
@@loamrider3086 Follow Carlin, pray to Joe Pesci. 😉
One of the most brilliant people who ever lived. His insights into society, people, politics, and religion, are unparalleled.
Too bad he would have been canceled in this day and age
Let's not get ahead of ourselves. He's a step above the average comedian, but he's not anywhere near the level of Marcus Aurelius or other philosophers.
That man is the sole reason I stopped watching TV. He made an impact on. I am grateful for it. He died a legend of truth and human conditioning.
Now that you mention it, I stopped watching TV in general around 2001, and I was a lifelong fan of Carlin. I suppose in some way he had a similar effect on me.
Thanks for reminding me of what a gem George Carlin is, was!
I totally agree with you!
I love George, the best one to do it... ever. Will take you to school, make you laugh and make you think at the same time.
George is a philosopher who uses comedy to get his point across. He's very intelligent and a student of the English language. I recommend a routine he calls MODERN MAN if you want to see his brilliance at work.
The good ole' George... I really miss him... Definitely one of my favourite stand-up comedians ever.
Smartest and best comedian ever 💯 you can always tell when someone doesn’t know anything about stand-up comedy when they say stuff like Kevin Hart is the best comedian 🙄😂
Sad thing is that since this first aired, nothing has changed. If anything it has gotten worse. I, myself, have made a lot of changes in my life towards this type of information. Stopped buying the latest “must have”products, broke down to simple groceries to eat and eliminated 60% of unnecessary purchases. Made my life so simple. I also stopped paying attention to politics in the world and just focus on what I can control. The simpler my life, the more peace I have!
I’ve been listening to George since I was 10 years old in 1970. He shaped my very psyche.
Carlin, one of the greatest, doing comedy while making you think ....
I had the pleasure to see George perform live before he passed. I literally fell out of my seat because I was laughing so hard. He was brutal and ruthless with his views, but that rage came from a great love of the ideals that we Americans fail to meet.
You should watch his great but "Baseball vs Football". Possibly the most honest description of America's change from the 19th century to the 20th century.
The world seriously needs George Carlin back.
George was never a fan of euphemisms. He came hard using hard, honest language.
George was never a fan of anything or anyone especially in regards to the USA lol Best comedian ever 💯
Subscriber 500. Here's to a lot more in the future. George's wisdom gave me greater perspective on life than most ever could.
George Carlin was preceded by another similar comedian named Lenny Bruce
Lol...George is an icon in American popular culture. RIP George. Great reaction.
I totally agree with the one curse word you said it’s so fucking hard to change
George never held back about anything. This poor woman didn’t know what she was in for. She doesn’t know truer words were never spoken. He’s brilliant & worked hard to get this way. Incredible comic! 😂😂 Watch more 🤣🤣
His words were spot on!!
Yeah, America has an even bigger Oligarch problem now.
A lot of the topics that George Carlin used in his comedy routines are not just problems in the US but are applicable to many other countries as well which made his words even more impactful.
d
Your reaction to the brilliant George Carlin is delightful. Well done!
Carlin was a legend. Always unfiltered and never disputed in my book. He screamed his mind, and never took it back.
Yeah the "no child left behind" act essentially did what he mentioned. Lowered passing grades to allow more kids to graduate. Instead of, yaknow, increasing the actual quality of education as a whole.
I've heard Italy is a nation of good quality food, athletic people, and long-lived and happy folks. I had an italian tell me that Rome was an urban poorly managed hellscape though, he recommended going anywhere else in Italy lol
The comment about testing is 100% true.
george was a 1 off no holds barred honest and funny with it ,we lost a talent when george died just like bill hicks ,richards pryers ,
Paying interest on money is a crime. The whole financial system is a crime!
9:51 I'm American and I use debit and never use credit. I usually finance anything big like electronics. Car is paid over time. Unless you're rich, you don't pay with a credit card
Job loss, medical expenses, and escalating mortgage payments are among the common reasons people file for bankruptcy.
George told the truth just made it funny. He's have hay day if he was still alive. RIP George and thank you. Jim
Art has to be remembered and for that it has to provoke!
Regarding his somewhat aggressive attitude, it's worth noting that at the time of this show Carlin was 68 years old and had been in the business for 50 years. The show is consistent with his overall style, but it's also tinged with typical old-man attitude.
For kind of similar, but with much cleaner language, there is always Gallagher. Just don't pay attention to his trusty Sledge-O-Matic if you love fruit.
I like to call George a Stand Up Philosopher
This was 20 years ago prior to social media, things are even worse now.
I am an American and, yes, George Carlin described America and Americans very well. Did you know that the top 1% in this country own 40% of the wealth?
"American dream. Because you have to be sleep to believe it" That sums it all perfectly what he said.
Too bad he didn't live long enough to do one on Europeans. Europeans brought back slavery in the 20th century: Russia, where more people died as property of the Soviet Union in slave camps than ever existed in the American Antebellum South, and of course Germany where mid-20th century they brought slavery back to Western Europe. Not to mention 4 of the 5 largest genocides in human history happened in Europe: The holocaust (within living memory), the Soviet starvation of Ukraine, The Armenian Genocide, etc. 60 million murdered if you add it all up, compared to the USA's "Indian Wars" which killed about 24,000 people. Bloody Europe: imagine what George could have said about that!
@@lawrenceallen8096 Yeah. Let's add all the people us europeans killed in USA when your great country was formed.
I love this guy
This was George’s last big show! He died shortly after sadly! Ive seen all of his big shows and in this one he preached a lot more, i think cause he knew he was on the way out and he cared so much about politics and how this country was run!! He was a lot more goofy in his earlier years! My favorite bit was his Ten Commandments bit!!
Please watch more of his videos he will make you think about what is happening now and he was doing these in 2000’s or earlier
i'm sure you get this all the time, but the cat ears on the headphones are fantastic
The grading system exists like that in the UK. You can see it is dumbing down the nation as this has been happening for a very long time now....
lowing passing tests i can tell it from germany for example studying IT, if you see the last exam for oveer 20 years how harder it was. I cant imagine in other fields.
Great Reaction! Sadly George got it right! Warm wishes from Australia🌺
George Carlin...an absolute legend. He was as much a philosopher as he was a comedian. Cresciuta in Italia...che figata! Bel video! Dovresti vedere altri video di George...era veramente un fenomeno! Stammi bene!
I really wished Carlin would just say what he thinks, sometimes, instead of only making subtle adumbrations 🤣🤣🤣
We always use credit cards here because they give you discounts and points
Telling the truth is actually the easiest option, but people never want to hear the truth, especially when it's about them. Telling people lies requires more than just coming out and telling people like it is. Lying takes work and thought. I would much rather have someone tell me the truth than lie to me, no matter what it is.
What does it say about someone who lies, even to spare someone's feelings? That you're a liar and you can't be trusted. The truth brings trust, lies bring untrust, no matter if you're trying to be nice, it's still a lie. This is what I love about GC, he's not afraid to tell the truth no matter how hard it is. R.I.P. brother💜💜💜
To me he is a realist, however I prefer clean language. He is pretty much correct about what he puts out.
saving the planet should be next -----george carlin genius
Notice when he was laying out everything plainly the "not dumb like the rest of them" audience was clapping and cheering like lunatics. Instead of standing up and saying, "We must do something! Say, here we all are together in agreement. We can start here and now..."
Saving the planet is a good bit from one of the HBO specials he did in the mid to late 90’s, if I remember correctly. His comedy will make you laugh and think at the same time. Have you seen 7 words you can’t say on TV? It’s a bit he did during his “younger” years. Bill Burr, Jim Jeffries ring a bell?
We are currently $22 trillion dollars in credit card debt. That accounts for about 40% of the 5 big banks in America bottom line.
On this one he is totally on point when he did Ribes US CITIZENS
"People say, 'I'm going to sleep now,' as if it were nothing. But it's really a bizarre activity. 'For the next several hours, while the sun is gone, I'm going to become unconscious, temporarily losing command over everything I know and understand. When the sun returns, I will resume my life.'
If you didn't know what sleep was, and you had only seen it in a science fiction movie, you would think it was weird and tell all your friends about the movie you'd seen.
They had these people, you know? And they would walk around all day and be OK? And then, once a day, usually after dark, they would lie down on these special platforms and become unconscious. They would stop functioning almost completely, except deep in their minds they would have adventures and experiences that were completely impossible in real life. As they lay there, completely vulnerable to their enemies, their only movements were to occasionally shift from one position to another; or, if one of the 'mind adventures' got too real, they would sit up and scream and be glad they weren't unconscious anymore. Then they would drink a lot of coffee.'
So, next time you see someone sleeping, make believe you're in a science fiction movie. And whisper, 'The creature is regenerating itself.” "George Carlin"
You are very smart. When I was in college, I maxed out 15 grand in credit card debt. It took me forever to get out. Now I have 1 credit card and I use it once a month
Harsh criticism works, no one is above mockery or criticism.
He was a legend
George and Karl got it
Hey, I'm new here through your reaction to Geography Now episode about POLAND! (and watched other reactions too!). And I just subscribed 😄I really really recommend to you the CHINA episode, it's fun as hell 😁Keep up the good work! 😀
I have listening to George since the 60's and his Hippy, Dippy weatherman bit. He grew more and more cynical has he aged, and, in the end, I think he just had it with the human race, he was totally disgusted with it.
The " MOST INSIGHTFUL COMEDIAN OF ALL TIME IN USA!!
You got it in one!
"The Slow Death Of Fast Food" ...
George is a true Icon, RIP George, thanks for the memories, 🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸
A true icon!
If its not youre cup of tea, then youre exactly the person who needs to hear it.
Reality is not delicate and being delicate will inevitably, albeit unintentionally, blindfold you from the rough truths of the world.
George Carlin holding back!!....Nah...truth can be brutal.
Poor Inna. I guess that we'll be watching cute cat videos tonight to repair your soul! 🐱😂
😂😂
Unlike many other so-called comedians who love foul language because they think it's fashionable, Carlin has always used harsh language as a weapon to rouse Americans from the stupor induced by stupid media propaganda. He was one of the most subtle connoisseurs of the English language and the realities of the world we live in, a genius with whose creations no other comic could compare. Maybe Dave Allen on his good days.
Banks incentivize people using credit cards on food, so yes it's very common here.
He's not one to mince words. In fact, he made one video specifically about mincing words, called "Soft Language," where he describes euphemisms and their often dehumanizing nature.
Massive props to you for understanding why he spoke as he did. I totally agree! George Carlin was an amazing dude who's gone now and that breaks my heart. He was an incredible comedian who spoke a lot of truth.
:) Good stuff!
Thank you very much for your comment 😊
Whow well the truth is hard haha greetz from the healtiest country on earth the Netherlands ;p
The last part is about Blackrock and vanguard.
Dont teach your kids to read a book but teach them to question everything whats in it.
I've always liked George Carlin - his "Class Clown" album is epic - but, it seems to me that, as he got older, he got more sour. That is to say, he did make valid points about a great many social and political issues all wrapped up in comedy but that's just the point: his earlier material was tongue-in-cheek humor dealing with day-to-day things (A Place For My Stuff) but his later material is just plain bitching about stuff while giving it a humorous spin. He went from premier comedian to slightly humorous crusty old fart who doesn't give a damn about what he says but uses the stage as a soapbox to preach and vilify. Although he makes very many valid points, he's preaching to the choir, and the choir didn't pay good money to hear him preach, they paid good money for him to make them laugh. How many times did you hear the audience laugh? How many times did you laugh? I grant you that this is just one segment of his show - one can only hope the rest of his performance was better.
Regarding his word choices: perhaps you should look up his routine "Seven Words You Can't Say on TV" ( ruclips.net/video/5ssJtD08vCc/видео.htmlsi=uh6HLtrYSbnmHW1L ) that he did in the early '70's. It created such a row that it made its way to the U.S. Supreme Court. This was when George Carlin was at his best.
So you have my sympathy; apparently you caught Carlin at his most depraved. If someone recommended this to you, it was a dirty trick just to see how horrified you'd get and, if it were me, I'd be kicking them out of the clubhouse.
I love the people who are so quick to say "We have that everywhere in the world." It's because American media and issues gets broadcast so often across the entire western world that you begin to think your society is like America. There's actually a word for it called Americanism(or Americanization), it's a real word.
There's a lot that's different about the US from Europe but the biggest differences is that in America it's become legal to bribe politicians, the lobbying industry that works for wealthy corporations literally spends billions every election cycle just to make sure politicians continue to serve their business interests of the corporations. And they're allowed to do it, it doesn't even have to be some backroom deal, they just do it legally and openly. The other big difference is news media in America is fully owned by private companies, the same private interests that are on the side of wealthy corporations. Many news in Europe is run by either the country or local areas. In America everything is commercialized, even the news.
On top of it being consumption, in the US they have what is known as Laissez-faire which is the idea that corporations and companies should be allowed to do what they want with little to no government interference. That single Laissez-faire ideology is the reason for the majority of why corporations can get away with all the stuff George mentioned and even more.
Truth!
The minute I got my credit card, I ran it up $1000 on things I don't even remember, and had no lasting importance in my life. Then, over the next 2 weeks, I ran it up to the maximum. That's the result of growing up poor, I think. When you give someone who has spent their entire life without money a large supply of available money, we have no idea what to do with it. None what so ever. So, we buy dumb things.
towards the end of his life George got bitter and frustrated at the stupidity of the American people and felt like they needed a shock to waken them from their stupor ....imho , apparently it will take a lot more than that to awaken the giant .
bit tough love hurts no one, esp if i makes good change
soon as i got outt debt, i never go back. i only spend what i got, if i cannot a ford it i don't get it. yes i got savings but i set a limit that never go below so if i wanted something cost bit more than income i give myself the loan and a time frame i must pay it back in even if it means i miss a few meals or not go out tto cafe luxury things yes i could afford to but i have a limit my saving do not go under so for rainy days your income could stop but you still got out going bills, i know if i had a lost or reduced income i know my car bills covered for the year and lot my bills and food are too but as soon as in better position no luxury i must get that saving back to limit i set for another could be bad months or year. if you can get out debt and only buy what you can afford i promise you will be more happy and lot less stress been like that for the last 5 years the best change i ever made
When you do reactions to anything don’t pause it just wait till the end of the video to say whatever you want 💯 so many people pause movies and videos during reactions and it kind of ruins the experience lol 😅 also George Carlin was the funniest and smartest comedian who ever lived and probably the only good American lol ✅
George spoke the truth 19 years ago, and this nation only got worse. RIP George. The world population more than doubled since Carlin started his career. Now we have over 4 billion more pour people to survive on this planet. Can you imagine what the world will be like in 25 years? I don't care to live to see it. No thank you!
Regarding lowering the passing grades, I sorta saw this firsthand. I moved from Virginia to Connecticut in 2000, right in middle school for me (started grade 7 in CT). The passing grade in VA was above 69, so you had to make at least a 70/100 to pass. But in CT, it was 65. So you had to score 66/100 to pass. I know this is because it varies from state to state, but it shocked me back then that the 'sophisticated north' was so much more lenient. Also, no SATs? Look I know SATs suck (if you're from VA you know) but it just seemed like the northern kids got it so much easier. Yet the stereotype is that southerners breed more stupid country bumpkins. It was definitely a wake up call for me
9:48 same here only. For extremely expensive things you put it on your credit card you know things you don't have enough cash for and if you're smart you don't even do that unless you've done the math but that's cognitive people
George Carlin was a modern day Socrates. I’m certainly no expert but, if I remember correctly, I read or heard Socrates was known for using humor and sarcasm to make poignant points about contentious topics of his time. Carlin did the same thing. A lot of comedians do this, but not everyone does it successfully. Nobody wants to hear about the problems of the world from a middle class 20-something year old, but you change that to an old man who has the lived experience, well that’s a different story and it’ll be received differently. The message and how it’s received depends on the messenger. It’s a similar thing in music. The person delivering the message matters and it can change how it is received. Just look at the Nine Inch Nails song Hurt, and the cover of the same song by Johnny Cash. Same exact song, totally different reception and impact.
It's true of America and its also true for western Europe.
I get by fine with only my debit card, I will never have a credit card again, and I prefer my smaller regional bank, works great for me, great reaction, George is the GOAT
Me too, it took my late wife and myself seven years to pay off our credit cards and I'll never have one again, my debit card is all I need, Well I get some cash out every month
the only problem I know with debit cards is if they get stolen you don't get your money back. Just what I heard i don't have any personal experience getting debit or credit cards stolen.
Belive it or not sweden lower passning grades at schools today just like george was saying
Carlin was a comedic beast, but... He became extremely grumpy and bitter towards the end of his life. Regarding fat Americans...
I'm Canadian.
I recently stayed overnight at Niagara Falls. I've never seen so many fat people in my life. It was like a fat convention.
Yup... American tourists...
Oh.. We Canadians also use our Debit cards everywhere. 😉
The original...MIc Drop!
Life/reality is a mix of softness & harshness. And avoiding the harsh realities is why human beings are allowing themselves to be taken advantage of. Even the natural things in life are harsh. Every mother who has given birth had to face painful harshness while going thru childbirth. So the very begiining of our lives was started in harshness. Look at the weather. Sometimes it is quite pleasant and at other times it is very uncomfortable. But for some strange reason "people" want to control each other's speech and make it be pleasant ALL of the time. That is unrealistic and causes bigger problems because we are just like the natural elemetns of life. So it is unnatural to ALWAYS be soft with our speech. And it is not natural to be clam and soft sooken when facing danger or loss. Whenever people suppress themselves and strain themselves to speak in an artificial manner, then eventually violence will erupt when too many tradedies stack up on top of one another. That is why calm spoke people shock the public when they become violent and destructive. Suppressing speech leads to big trouble. People are suppose to FACE harsh things and pay attention in order to resolve problems. But instead people run away into being a hypocrite. They speak nicely while secretly hating. Eventually the truth spills out and then it's a disaster. People are AFRAID of displeasing their (hidden) owners. So they obey. But if you stude communist or toltalitarian historry, the first tthing the controllers did when taking over a group of people is to disallow them from speaking thie native tongue (after being captured from wartime). Every country that has a strict control on people's expression, is like living in a concentration camp. And when SPEECH is suppressed and controlled, then people are under the regime of mind control. And after thaaat all other areas of life are locked down too. So cooperating with the status quo regarding human expression only leads to existing in mental hell. And people can only take so much until they erupt out of control. Cooperating with tyranny is what strengthens it, always. Athlete coaches use harsh language in order to bring out the players' excellence. I prefered teachers that spoke harshly because it broght excellence out of me. I understood the need for harsh or coarse language, sometimes. I taught my children that profanityy was not wrong, but that it had it place. Like if you accidentally slam your fingers in a door, and let out a curse word, I told my kids that I wouldn't hold that against them. But said to them that you must not swear in public while you are still a kid. That's because a kid doesn't know when it is appropriate and not appropriate to use profanity. So the neighbors tthought that my kids wwere the most well mannered kids thhey had ever seen. But they didn't know that their language was not suppressed at home. But I told them that it was not appropriate too searfor no reason. Language is like clothing, there is nothing wrong witth wearing pajamas but it is inappropriate to wear them at work, for example. Oh btw, I was born is the USA. But I am 60+ years old, and whwhen I was in school, they taught logic, critical thinking. After I graduated, the govt. removed it in order to deliberate dumb down the later generations of students that followed. Now most young Americans are so dumb that they obey everything that the govt. tells them and believe that it's all for their benefit. They now thing and talk like communists and yet they till think they are Americans. It is the American Constitution (1st Amendmeent = Freedom of Speech), but the "Woke" political movement is trying to destoy it along wwith all the other amendments. Once that happens, America won't exist anymore. It will have become a totalitarian state. Then all other coountries will follow, just like what happen with the worldwide pandemic mandates (designed to abolish humann reights). America is being targeted as th e#1 priority to get the Aamericans to succumb to having their speech restricted. They begin with a few words and the ultimate goal is to have people ask permission to see if what they can say is allowed. It isn't enough that the world owners want most if not all of the world's assets & resourced, but they want TOTAL control over human being through AI surveillence, etc. So being soft ALL the time can be dangerous to human freedoms & rights, in the longrun. Besides, in general, people tend to ignore a message that is softly and gentlty delivered. Had George spoke in a politically correct manner, hardly anyone would pay attention to his message that is meant to save humanity from global enslavement. So while this is comedy, George risked his life to warn people in the future of what's to come so that we could protect our lives and the lives of our loved-ones.
Ciao cara Inna. Bella reazione. 😘
His whole perspective ( show ) should be televised once a day on American TV daily UNTIL the ELECTION !!! 👍✌🖖🍁🌻🇺🇦
Carlin was a national treasure for us. Glad you appreciated it even if you found him a bit crass.
He speaks the truth and that’s always appreciated!
this information got him killed
