Whats old is new again, because AMERICA NEVER FIXES ITS SHIT!!!!

It's the same reason I don't get these people saying "I'd love to see what George Carlin would have said about the last 15 years...."

You already HEARD what he would say. The names and the faces may have changed, but the situations haven't. The only "new" thing in that time was covid, which if he had made it to 2020, would have been the thing to kill him.

He might have done a zoom stand-up routine how he loves doing stand-up from his living room, so he doesn't have to deal with travel, and dealing with people all day. Then he'd make a joke about how after his set is done he's going to play with his dick and balls, and retorically ask the audience if they want him to leave his webcam on for it.

But outside of that we haven't changed one bit.
