“Last year HBO produced an Emmy Award-winning documentary series about George Carlin, detailing the iconoclastic comedian’s rise to popularity and repeated incarnations as he transitioned over his career from a more traditional comic to an establishment-challenging philosopher-comedian and elder statesman of the standup arts. But would Carlin’s unique perspective survive in today’s era of quick-trigger canceling?
Jimmy and fellow comedians Kurt Metzger and Wayne Federman, who produced the Carlin documentary, discuss the Carlin legacy and influence.”

He has never struck me as being an even remotely decent person.
His integrity is clearly in shambles…Such a plethora of lying, and self centered narcissism.
Actually…this information in the video was out there, shortly after the murder hit the news.
I was never a fan of him as an actor…but once I started getting a clear understanding of how he is on a personal level…
…He’s like an early template of the modern “woke warriors”…only caring about personal image, and controlling the narrative…lashing out at everyone pointing out where he is wrong…and never actually taking any hard or responsible action, that could impact himself.
It’s amazing that he abandoned a potentially still alive murder victim, to go and attend a party…lying about being the first to discover it all…And that is what he does to someone he is dating?…That sounds like some type of psychopath, right there.
Two more victims happened, because of his lying?
…And the people he called in the moment, who advised him?…Fucking Hell…
It’s no wonder so many people think Hollywood should burn to the ground.
“What are the chances that the United States of America stop being UNITED? Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.

Will we still be the United States of America in 10 years? Hell, five years. Um, listen, I I, I, I don’t think, I don’t think the United States of America is going to go anywhere. And of course, illicit dragon, you know, capitalizes the word united. And I, I, I think that’s really the difference here. We’re not talking about the country itself dissolving or a civil war breaking out or anything like that. We’re using that one word here, right? United and as it stands right now, we’re not a united country at all, but we also are a very united country. Here’s what I mean by that. We have this disgusting political divide in this country. And, and I’ll fully own up to the fact that I’m not helping it at all. I get that. But we are so tribal and politics has, has really taken hold in our lives. It’s no longer this thing you just thought about Every four years during an election, we talk about it, we think about it, we experience it every day.
It’s in our face with 24 hour cable news. It’s in our face with YouTube and social media. You can’t escape politics anymore. And because of that, people have become more divided and more tribal. You know, everybody has a voice now, not just the politicians. So you now get to see your neighbor’s political opinions and you may suddenly think, oh my God, my neighbor’s a cue supporter. I say that because that’s what happened with me. Um, and then we use those to stigmatize one another. We use those to isolate ourselves from those other individuals. And now the reason I say that, yes, we are divided, but we’re also more united than ever is because when you take a look at polling on actual issues here in the United States, we as a country, left, right center, whatever you are, we’re united on the actual issues on the issue of universal healthcare. Majority of Americans left, right center say, hell yeah, we want it on the issue of protecting the environment and combating climate change. A majority of Republican, democrat and independent voters say, yes, we need to do that. Same thing with debt-free college. Same thing with lowering prescription drug prices. Same thing with getting money out of politics. We all agree on all of these things, so why the hell can’t we actually get along gun control? We all agree, even republicans, even N NRA members say we gotta do something.
So we’re not actually that divided. We create the divisions in our own minds. And that bekin became the reality. I’m guilty of it, and I know most people watching this are listening to this. You’re guilty of it too, and I’m not shaming you for it. But maybe if we could get to a post, you know, tribal society where we look at what unites us instead of what divides us. Maybe we won’t have these questions about whether or not we’re gonna really exist as a United States of America in a few years because the divisions are getting worse. But that’s only because of the labels that we choose to put onto ourselves. That’s the problem. Yes, some of them have weird wacko beliefs that are totally not anything aligned with what we believe in. And I’m talking about the white nationalists. I’m talking about the neo-Nazis. I’m talking about the conspiracy theorists. There is no negotiating. There is no common ground with those people. I don’t believe in that kind of alliance. But for your average everyday Republican voter out there, you’d be surprised at how much you agree on compared to how much you disagree on. Thanks

“Republicans are eager to cut social security benefits, but how realistic is it for that to happen? Ring of Fire’s Farron Cousins discusses this.
*This transcript was generated by a third-party transcription software company, so please excuse any typos.
Uh, Satan’s werewolf asks, if Republicans end Social Security, what happens to all the money we’ve been paying into, into it all these years? If they refuse to give it to us once ending Social Security, wouldn’t that count as theft of our hard-earned money? Now you would think so, yes. Right? I mean, you’ve been paying, I’ve been paying, we’ve all been paying into Social Security for our entire working lives. Unless I’ve got somebody, you know, listening here that’s over 95 years old, then you may have had, actually no, you’d need to be, what, like 110 in order to not have had to pay into Social Security basically. So yeah, we’ve all been paying into it. That is our money.
But the problem is Republicans don’t see it as such. Once that money gets taken outta your paycheck and sent to dc, it’s their money. That’s how they view it. They can do whatever they want with it because you’ve already paid it, right? It’s already gone. You don’t have to worry about it anymore. Let them do what they want to do about it. Now, if Republicans actually do go through with their wishlist and, uh, cut social security, that is political self-destruction, like they’re not going to recover from that, especially considering the fact that the biggest voting block for the G O P is voters over the age of 65. So you’re literally targeting your base. So if you l take money away from them, if you take away those monthly checks, you are screwed. Right? That’s not gonna fly. And we also know, of course, that they’re not gonna be able to successfully cut Social Security because the Democrats control the Senate.
Biden is the president. It ain’t gonna happen. And we’ve gone through this before. I mean, we went through it with the Bush administration. Oh, we’re gonna privatize Social Security, we’re gonna make this happen. It’s all gonna be great and grand and wonderful. And that is one of the things Obama campaigned on, of course in 2008, bringing that up, reminding people that it happened and voters responded accordingly saying, yeah, we don’t trust the Republicans anymore. But I think that they felt maybe enough time had passed, you know, it’s been 19 years since they were attempting that 18 years. So they said, you know what? I think, I think we can do it again. I, I, I think we can now go at these cuts to social security. And every time they bring it up, they get hammered. Biden, to his credit, has done a wonderful job of going out there and attacking the hell out of these Republicans for it.
You know, this again is one of those issues where Democrats are really united and they’ve got a really great message that resonates with the public, and they’re mad at the Republicans for it. It’s brilliant. And if they can keep that up, we don’t have to worry about social security getting cut. And by the way, if social security did get cut by Republicans, they’d pay for it in the following election. And the Democrats, if they have enough sense, would be able to easily undo it. So that’s where we stand with that. The attacks on social security from the right will not end. They may lie dormant for a few years, but they always come back dumber than ever. And that’s what we’re seeing happen right now with the Republicans. Thanks for

At least one of the people mentioned has a history of smearing MAPs, and getting them thrown off of platforms…
…Welcome to “the MAP internet”, pal!…Welcome to poetic justice!…
…Maybe you’re beginning to realize, why the behavior you have previously engaged in, is so absolutely fucked up?
In this case, you likely did absolutely nothing wrong or even questionable…Your behavior and intent was beyond reproach…And yet, you’ve found yourself being targeted and harshly penalized…for doing the right thing…
…For all the honesty and correctness in what you’ve done…you’re being treated like a criminal for it…That is what I mean, by “the MAP internet”…
