2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion.

I always thought that if Carlin wasn't already dead, the current state of affairs would've likely killed him.
Nah friend, don't sell him that short. By the end, he enjoyed the carnage. He separated himself from our shitty species, an aspirational goal in these times for me honestly. Here's an interview where he laid it out.
George would be laughing his ass off at the perverse, cartoonish morbidity how far the many are still eager to go in service to the owners that own and torture them, you, me, etc. He wasn't loaded, but he would be comfortable enough to get entertainment from this murder porn of a civilization at a distance.
In his own as always eloquent words, I promise I'm not exaggerating:

And that's the most cathartic outlook us powerless peasants can have.
Thanks; this footage should run in a loop at the Smithsonian.
