"Inside every cynical person, there is a disappointed idealist." - George Carlin
-
"if you think there's a solution you're part of the problem". Icon
-
This was back in 1996, and he was already given up in humanity. He's lucky to miss 2023.
-
He's right about the groups of people. The rule of thumb seems to be: the bigger the crowd, the lower the IQ
-
Carlin wasn't just a comedian, he was one of our great philosophers.
-
2:59 "what happens is they begin to surrender the beauty of the individual for the sake of the group" - this is the realest shit ever
-
He talks so comically about the end of our species, but you can tell it's masking a decades-long analysis of humanity that only arrived at one depressing conclusion.
-
Carlin spoke brutal truth about society in a humorous way.
-
"They begin to surrender the beauty of the individual for the sake of the group."
-
I couldn't imagine being in Carlin's presence. I love him, every now and then when I get tired and burnt out from daily life bullshit, I come back and listen to him and I swear it hits like medicine. RIP
-
Wish George was still with us, absolute legend.
-
"If you think there's a solution you're part of the problem" Lol absolutely spot on
-
He is so right about groups of people. I'll be in group chats on the internet and then I will talk to that person one-on-one and it's amazing how much they change in a one-on-one conversation. Individuality is being lost.
-
Everything he said about the dynamic of the individual vs. the group hit home with me. I share that same view of the world. I prefer to deal with people on an individual level and avoid crowds like the plague. Once you find yourself amongst the crowd, you tend to lose yourself and end up at the mercy of whatever the mob thinks and wants to do. I have been doing my own thing all my life, have had a lot of interesting experiences and seen a lot of interesting places. Yes it gets lonely at times, but that is pretty much the only drawback. Nothing is perfect. But freedom, sanity, control over your own life, and inner peace far outweigh the loneliness.
-
Conan is literally a fan like all of us. Miss George... His humor applies for all of our issues even today.
-
Carlin was a brilliant social critic as well as a brilliant comedian.
-
"There's no one to talk to about this" that spoke to me on a spiritual level. Everybody will label you as blackpilled, cynical, buzz kill, etc, because the truth is like a blade being shoved into your belly and then twisted..
-
Never heard Andy laugh from a guest that loudly.
-
He's describing the madness of crowds to a crowd.. and it proves itself in the fact that nobody quite feels comfortable with what he's saying - but I bet you they all drove home and thought about it alone in the car.
-
If Carlin has been in more Late Night with Conan shows i would love to see.
