You always see people on the right saying positive things about him and saying "omg if George Carlin was around these days all you leftists would hate him!!!"

The man was not a right winger and a lot of his comedy was making fun of the right

George spared noone. I don't bother with politics much but I've been a fan of stand-up since I was 9 or so. Everyone wanted him to be seen as "on their side" so they'd throw labels on him that he didn't place on himself.

It's like with the right and Ali and MLK. Once they're gone and no longer a threat, their image and memory can be manipulated. They're doing it with Richard Pryor too.

They try to appropriate (for lack of a better term) anything that pisses off the sensitive SJW type liberal. Anybody those types complain about is on the right's side apparently. They try to claim Bill Burr as one of their own too even though Bill calls himself a "lefty".

Carlin ragged on the Regan administration, pro lifers, religion, toxic masculinity, and the aristocracy which are a few things the right really loved and worships. If he were still alive the right would be calling him an old drugged out hippy.

Doesn't mean that first statement isn't correct. Carlin would certainly hate Trump if he were here today, but he'd also hate the SJW/identity politics left.

These people you claim are right wingers go to shows and laugh at jokes mocking their supposed right wing views.

He bitched about how people won't even eat food after they drop it on the floor.
He also had a bit about how shitty processed/fast food is and how he'd rather eat grapes

Because Carlin was anti-Censorship and pro making jokes about stupid things.

He would be tearing SJWs apart today.

Meanwhile SJWs are trying (and often succeeding) in censoring and deplatforming any thought they disagree with.

So the right latches on to anyone who challenges that and anyone dead that they assume would challenge that

Carlin rightfully pointed out all the bullshit in politics and since he was very anti religious and anti war and all that, Republicans were a major target.

But look at the political landscape now compared to 12 years ago. It's not about foreign policy and religion anymore.

Carlin stood up for his right to say offensive things. He willingly let himself get arrested so that he could way offensive words in front of a crowd. It wound up being a huge win for free speech. There is no way he would be all about comedians getting canceled and in support of outrage/cancel culture.

He hated pussies. He bitched about how people won't even eat food after they drop it on the floor. So there is no way he wouldn't have bitched about people whining about words.

With that said, there would be plenty he'd have to say about the right as well.


Agreed with all this.

I bother with those who can't tell the difference between a Liberal and Leftist, but many Right wingers just want to see those they have contempt for be shittted on. even if this person spends half the time doing it to them, too.

it makes sense to not want a comedian to have partisan bias, but many people have a warped view of what equality is. some people just provide you with more material due to having a longer history of being fucked up, lol.

yeah, but not to the degree of the right. i've watched most of his specials multiple times and i'm having a hard time using both hands to count the amount of times making fun of the left specifically, or disagreeing with the left politically.

When you let go of labels like right, left, liberal, conversative, democrat and republican...

You can begin to view yourself based on individual subjects rather than labeling yourselves based on a couple of words and you can start being PEOPLE again.

Alt-Right unfunny comedians that need to start getting banned and their past material pulled from tv/streaming services:

Anthony Jeselnik
Bill Burr
Dave Chapelle
David Spade
Jim Jeffries
Louis CK
Norm MacDonald
Shane Gillis

Also George Carlin & Richard Pryors stuff should be removed wherever it may be shown.

If Netflix & YouTube keep hosting Alt-Right hatred then they need to be boycotted.

And if Andrew Yang keeps defending racist comedians then hes an alt-right piece of s*** too.
