  We all need to remember or know, George Carlin is one of the first original activists in the 60s 70s and 80s he hated politics, war and stupidity. 🇺🇸

  Carlin was so far ahead of his time, he sent an "okay boomer" from 1996.

  Carlin was brilliant! He was so far ahead of his time, and called out everything that is happening now. He knew it all then and tried to wake people up.

  That’s the genius of Carlin. <br><br>He’d slap you across the face half a dozen times with the truth and you’d laugh cuz you know it’s true

  Mark Twain said long ago. If voting actually mattered, they wouldn&apos;t let you do it. And that was a very long time ago. It still applies till this very day.

  If you have never listened to it, give &quot;Class Clown&quot; a spin. &nbsp;Carlin is in class all by himself, and I guarantee that you will LOVE the twist he puts on Muhammad Ali refusing the draft. &nbsp;What makes him so great is how he looks at the situation, finds the grain of truth in it and spins it around a corner.

  What&apos;s amazing is that Carlin just barely made it to the age of modern cellphones (having died in 2008, and the iPhone came out mid 2007), but the message of the technology he was used to seeing is able to break through even to today&apos;s culture.<br><br>Camcorders = today everyone uses their smartphones to record video on the street or at an event, etc. One hour photo finishing = thanks to high quality photos from phones, you can see your photos immediately (good and bad - good, in that you can retake the photo immediately if it was a bad shot; bad, if all you want to do is look at your photos all the time and not recall how good of a time you actually had.)<br><br>In its own way, having the photos or video to look back on <b>years</b> later, can be good, because memory does tend to fade, but he makes a good point that you shouldn&apos;t need to look at this stuff immediately after coming home, unless you&apos;re showing it to friends.<br><br>Great reaction as always :)

  George can talk about anything. Politics, religion, abortion and 99% of the time I agree! More George please!

  I&apos;ve always equated George Carlin with a jazz artist. A really great jazz musician! With all his wordings, phrasings, innuendos, diminuendos, and resolve... genius. Just genius.
