The Illusion of Security

- It has been said that at the very foundation of all mental illness is an unwillingness to experience legitimate pain. Indeed some of the steps we take to make ourselves feel more secure are an instinctive reaction to the fear, and therefor seem like a good idea, but instinct is not rational thinking. George helps us understand the danger of irrational fear using the fear of germs as an example.

Please consider subscribing to the channel. I havent been uploading in a long time. I followed events in the world for a long time, unfortuately after 8 years of world events I found the constant sad news very draining and took a step back. That said every new subscriber is the greatest reward I could ask for and a source of motivation to continue working on my channel. I try to find and share timeless social commentary from the greatest people alive and also, sadly, the greats that have left this world. If you appreciate the content I share please subscribe and I promise to source the rarest clips of people like George Carlin (RIP). His thoughts are so relevant even all these years later. Thank You X
Sep 11 was done by the parasites that run America.

Aw, this is such a sweet message of course I'll subscribe
Just so people know, this was performed before September 11th. This guy was so brilliant and intuitive it's scary.
Thanks I was wondering about that but it's not in the description.
Your ignorance to life consistently repeating itself is scary. Dumbshit
..and covid
@@tomfull6637 even better
right, because airport security didnt exist before 911......
I like how the category of this video is education rather than comedy.
no but were just stupid little white no nothings right??
Ryan Berkovich know nothings*
Ryan Berkovich Irony.
Ryan Berkovich yea
I think it's less to do with race than is fucked up individuals.
And even then, just cause you're fucked up doesn't mean you're the evil kinda fucked up
The fact that George Carlin's routines so long ago turns out to be so true in many ways is uncanny.
He did this before 9/11. Insane.
I was fortunate enough to see Carlin live and I would love to see his take on the last four years. He was such a brilliant observer of society....
I think he'd say that Covid was the planet defending itself against us to shake us off, as he talked about in 1992.
oh man, I wish I could have seen him too
George Carlin or Christopher Hitchens , both would`ve been great entertainment in these current climes , Bill Hicks too
He just told you.
Good for you Mr 👍🏼👍🏼
So 22 years ago, Carlin said we were willing to trade freedom for the illusion of security 😅
Holy shit he's good.
Yes. He told us much more we just didn't listen. "The tables have been tilted, the whole time we just went about our day never really paying attention" George was a prophet.
@@michaelriley8002 the real owners !!!!!
@@DocOrtmeyer "The real owners don't want a population of well informed people capable of critical thinking....Pretty soon all you'll need to get into college is a pencil" George knew what was coming, just listen to him.
Carlin was Nostradamus reincarnated......man, I miss that guy!
People have been pointing that out for centuries.
Everything George Carlin ever talked about basically came to pass. Nail on the head, all of the time
Don't you think the terrorist bombings that he supports is indicative of his impervious psychopathy?
Don't get me wrong, I love Carlin, but sometimes I can't get whether he's serious or satirical at times.
@@jeannedarc7533 maybe you're just really tone deaf
@@zachkent2575 I mean, you have a point.
@@jeannedarc7533 I found George to be unhinged and senile in this clip, and I usually like his "stand up" (not really stand up, just him ranting on stage). every point he made seemed less logical than the last, from food and safety laws, to his views of terrorism being"entertainment", with each passing minute he found ways to look more idiotic
@@kookythymes2838no disrespect but i think you didn't get it
Damn! he doesn't even waits for the laughs of the audience, he continues like he never needed them, what a genius!
Man why can't we have more people like him!!!!
Well he tells you why, cause we are all security seeking PUSSIES who let the government take our freedom, little by little, every year having less and less freedom in the name of safety and security.
Because that would make him less special!
@@victorious541 spedial or not we need people like him
We do have people like him. It's just that what he said back then, would now classify as hate-speech or offensive to one group or the other. They took away our voice, but they can't take away our thoughts.
@@slayrisk unless they find a way to indoctrinate us into certain ideas from a young age before the part of the brain that is responsible with critical thinking fully grows and teach us to hate, ostracize and sometimes kill people who dont think like us, then they wont be able to take away our freedom of thought...
*...cough cough religion cough...*
Incredible how on-point Carlin was about so many things.
Trump is a germaphobe.. He was too right
Jalan Marshall Yes he is. He said shaking hands was the worst thing the West ever came up with
@GibusDrop
It ain't worth shit. Guns get on board, bombs get on board. Tests prove that every time, & so does the occasional BOOM. Oops. How did that by ?
But you sure as hell aren't getting that bottle of water on board.
Airport Safety is a joke and I think of his tapes every time I go thru airport security. When I was young I walked up to the ticket counter and started laughing, my mom knew what I was thinking and said, "Don't you dare".
Yeah, i know... terrorism is exciting
funny part is that there is a medical theory theory that actually claims that living in to clean of an environment can be detrimental to one's health. This man hit the nail on the the head about a lot of things
+Scotland McKinzie It's been proven that the over-use of germ-killing gel has created newer, antibiotic-resistant germs. Nice thought.
+Scotland McKinzie Yeah..bacteria form our ability to withstand illness, our immunosystem
+Scotland McKinzie That's the theory of allergies. Some scientists believe we have such a prevalence of allergies because our immune system is compensating for the lack of actual bacteria to fight.
Don't need to be a medical scientist to understand that moderation in all things is essential.
Scotland McKinzie when i was born and growing up i was the cleanest of all. Now i have asthma!
watching this post pandemic and obviously post 9/11, I still find so much truth in his words. I miss his take on the world, and I hope others can see the amazing genius this man was/is.
George Carlin the entertainer of truth. What a legend.
This is from his album “you are all diseased” it came out in 1999. He was a brilliant clairvoyant.
Believe it or not the good slash Great things that happened in the late 90’s like 97 or 98 and 99 and the 2000’s childhood in Romania and Europe than what is going now with family problems and stressors between my parents and Sibling as well as my other Dediu Families sucks completely and is so boring and no fun Here in America during this new Decade of more Hell than the 2000’s and most recently the 2010’s I truly believe that if me and my Grandfather and George Carlin were around the same age when I was
Little I bet growing up we would make one hell of a team against the stupidity and de evolution of humans in this Century called the 21st for both Europe and America were I have been living all this time God I wish I was never born to Grow up in this shitty Twenty First Century where with each passing Decades humans around me’s faces turned from Fun loving and having fun and having passion and energy for life to being all unhappy depressed faced looking and just Downright boring
I discovered Carlin when I was in high school, so 2000 or 2001. At the time, this was his newest show, and I thought it was a little too coarse for my style... less explicitly funny than all of his previous material. But two decades later, everything he talked about turned out to be real.
@@robertd9020 Hey did they teach about punctuation in Romania? No offense but your comment is difficult to read due to a lack of punctuation/formatting
and 23. years later his points are still valid...
@@TheBfutgreg go to hell and find some punctuations there you fucking loser grammar patrol bitch
Every word out of this man’s mouth is pure gold
TRUEEE!!!!
this is literally explaining the swedish goverment XD
Gold??? 🤣🤣🤣🤣. NO!! HELL NO!!
@@bigdee8189why is that
Lmao. That's REAL. 😂😊
@@shawnodell8389 That's not the question. The question is 'why is it gold'?
Man, 2024, and we had lived everything George Carlin just said. What do I now do with all of this knowledge.
This man was so brilliant, is insane. He predicted the future, with no problem. I miss George, he was great, and probably the best and unique comedian ever......

My favorite quote from old Benny. Today you could add 'trading your entire privacy for a bit of convenience'. It's just not worth it.
He's right about people needing to take risks sometimes and getting out of our comfort zones.
@@BlankRami I was just referring to what he said about getting out of our comfort zones sometimes.
@@BlankRami Gilbert Godfrey made an 9/11 joke that really pissed people off and yet he still continued on up till his recent death. Screw what people think about it. If their panties are in a twist then let them. Express your jokes. Fuck sensitivity.
You don't get out of your comfort zone, you expand it.
@@Vinicius-ux4qx Nope. You're either in your comfort zone or you aren't.
He’s right about most things 😅
Dangerous Entertainment, Fun just for The Sake of It! Sounds like he knew what was coming ...Hello 2024! ✌️💗
This man is a genius. Impresses me every time he list things off. Absolutely an idol of mine. From Thomas the train to this. My entire life I've been listening to him.
Wait? Are you implying that he was involved in the making of Thomas the Train???
You are easily impressed by the theatrics. He's brilliant but this "terrorism is entertainment" and "take a chance" is just stupid.
@PerryPariah Blew my mind when I first found out/realized it lol
And this is recorded pre 9/11 - on February 6, 1999.
And the point still stands even today
Carlin hated on all religion. But your point is only sorta true.
Trump is an idiot.
@@AUTOPSY666 and every conservative who follows him
@Happy Fox Don't take these terror threats seriously. His point is still relevant. Odds that you're killed by terrorist is practically zero. You're more likely to become president.
Thousands of TSA arrested for theft; not a single terrorist detected by TSA.

@@erronblack308 TSA are cool compared to customs agents. Those ppl have a serious chip on their shoulders

It's all a scam.
@@decoraqueena6413 Word and boy do I have some unread information for a lot of people that say the Afghan pointless war was justified
His standup is pure truth and gold
We've never needed Carlin more desperately than we do in 2023.
We needed George Carlin during this pandemic. RIP sir.
I thought as much
yeah we definitely need someone like him during these times. nobody else is gonna call out all the bs like he did
A lot of material he would have today 😀😀😀
the great thing about his comedy is it applies to concepts that we'll always be struggling with, so his comedy/message is immortalized. you don't even need carlin back, you can just replace "airport security" with "covid restrictions" and it's the exact same message. same with many of his other shows.
They''d just get him 'cancelled' on Twitter and no platform would host him so he'd never get to speak.
"Angry men in combat fatigues talking to God on a two-way radio, muttering incoherent slogans about freedom are gonna be providing us with a great deal of entertainment."
Boy was he right.
please explain why you feel he's right? i'm not american so i don't understand who you're talking about.

@@ninab.4540 antifa
Amazing talk. Love this guy...He should have lived 1000 years to straighten us out...
If I know anything about Carlin, he would've admitted himself that he could've lived for 1000 years and it wouldn't have changed a thing.
@@limitisillusion7 Don’t say that. Baby steps and with time. We just need more open eyes.
He’s like the grandpa we all need to give us a kick in the pants
@@limitisillusion7 He'd probably have hated to live that long anyways. I know I would get real tired of it.
@@Dim2134 He's prob still alive tho and that's the part people are unable to comprehend lol
“Trade away their freedom in exchange for a little feeling of security” so applicable in 2021.
What about the super virus part.. idk there's some thing there
george carlin was pretty old when he recorded that special. and yet, not old enough to have experienced the last major pandemic. COVID-19 ain't little. it's serious shit. and yet...not even a national lockdown in america. on the whole, any freedoms lost have been relatively minor compared with other nations
@@dice1296 that’s how it starts, “minor” freedom exchange, then we move to airport vaccine cards where you can’t fly without etc. America is to big for them to try and do what’s going on in Australia so they’ll do it slowly if we let ‘em

I wish George was around to see the world the way it is. We really need him and his humor right now. 🙁
I wish I knew about him before he died he says so many things I think about constantly but can't use humor to say them
Sad thing is, if he was around, he'd be liable to wish he wasn't...
they would cancel him.

1:11 Oh man! This is absolutely brilliant 😂
My dad always said ...
“I’d listen to him, only guy I know who actually knows the truth.”
It's crazy how on point he is about trading our freedom for safety. Anyone here post covid?
Yupp we are here. I return to these videos once in a while a last decade or so.
what is post covid?
Greetings from germany! Sad times. Miss him.
god damn right
And yet he'd be one of the "enlightened" individuals who'd support vaccine mandates and documentation.
Carlin was pure genius! I listened to him growing up in the 70s the Best.
Man, talk about prophetic. Wow. ❤️✌️
He was so far ahead of his time, you were the best George, and thank you

There will never be another George Carlin. The truth speaker, the Legend of Legends.
This guy really cared about making people's lives better he is correct

And there lies the problem “Those who refuse to open their eyes to reality” 💯💯💯
Echo chamber facts.
EXACTLY !!!
AMEN
@@ikariameriks
It's been a year. I pray you've seen the light by now.
In the late 90's, in the same bit, within 6 minutes, Carlin covered the two biggest events to hit America over the next twenty years.
Loved seeing him the one time I had the chance, Jacksonville Oregon, we sat in the tree's behind the outdoor theatre and he was amazingly funny.
George Carlin's stand-ups were a very witty and harsh criticism of the American society bullshit. May more Americans pay attention to them so that America become America again.
america was never great and carlin knew, how can you watch him and comment something dumb like this🤣
@@45tqk45 It’s certainly unique, but I love it just the same.
@@45tqk45
What is "great" is different to many different people. Put carlin on about some other country, he would be shitting on something about that country too.
@@45tqk45 I don't think you have the IQ to truly enjoy Carlin, cause it went completely over your head. You're using it for your personal sentiment, which is not his own.
@@45tqk45 Keep telling yourself that lol. By his (and your) standard, no nation that's ever existed is great. Because no nation is flawless and incapable of being criticized.
"Where did the sudden fear of germs came from"... I watched a lot of skits from this guy to know he is a time traveler. 2022 and this is applicable on so many levels
he certainly got the "angry men in combat fatigues on a two way radio with god muttering incoherently about freedom" part solid. be predicted fox news key demographic
@@ryanweible9090 There are radical elements of both sides. Take a look at 2020s "Summer of love" and tell me none of that was terrorism. "Violence committed in the act of furthering religious or political goals". Or is it OK when your side do it, because you agree with them?
@@rowanmelton7643 one side got substantially more radical while the other kept itself moderate. There are bad apples everywhere, yes indeed, but a basket with one bad apple is not comparable to a basket with 10 bad apples. Not only those 11 apples are unstable and radical, they vote too.
@@joaomonteiro7063 And which side would you be talking about? Since I've heard both the left and right talking just like this. Both sides think they are the moderate ones, and the others are the radical ones
Both sides have prime becoming more radical. The existence of one guarantees the existence of the other. Radicalism feeds opposing radicalism.
He spoke in a timeless sense. That’s why his work still holds up now.
This is called foreshadowing.
This should be shared and be on every channel all at once everywhere.
Georgie boy always says it like it is
George was a philosopher, moreso than a comedian. Still funny, but more importantly: truthful.
You fought the good fight, it gets to everyone who tries, and its not that many. Thank you and subscribed for sharing the word of Carlin, doesn't matter when!
The things he said about the immune system are backed by scientific research. Whether he knew that or was just reiterating the old "rub some dirt in it" treatment, he was right

Yup bullshit-19 lol
It's funny because Republicans are looking for validation in George Carlin's speech for their dumb behaviour, but completely ingore the fact that at the end of the video he refers to "what happens if a super virus comes along". If you actually are comparing this virus to the germ-phobia he was talking about then you are a fucking moron
@@rarewaffle3531 COVID's not a super virus, though. Most people get sick and get over it, it's the people that are already unhealthy like me that would get attacked terribly.
@@hmlandis1370 There are serious studies claiming that even people that seem to get over it present damage in many parts of their bodies. Don't discard long term effects yet, there's no way we can know about them for now. But yeah, covid death rates might seem small but for its kind they are high. Even if your age group is not at big death risk it's still pretty serious. Take care dude!
How absolutely right he was......
Just like a prophet he pinpointed everything... We need more comedians like him
George is the voice we as a species NEEDS, but maybe the voice we don't deserve in this age
A DARK KNIGHT
What we NEED to do is preserve and pass on the gifts George left us for the future generations of our species. Although we may not deserve it, the one's we leave this mess of a world to surely will.
I laughed so hard about the bomb riddle at the airport just imagine if you told a riddle about a bomb to a security guard they'd freak the fuck out
The people they hire would never be able to figure it out “you get what you pay for”
O just love his sarcasm...
So real...and valid...
I also feel the same on the subjects...my partner says your too aggressive...but nothing compared to this😅😅😅😅😅
Great video thanks 👍
Been listening n watching this man since the early 70s. Nice 👌
amazing man. A prophet and a rebel in my opinion. History repeats itself they say, so his sayings will stay true as long as humanity exists. Let's hope history in the future won't only replay all the problems he is addresing through his comedy, but will also replay a future Mr. George to wake up future generations like our George did us.
Hello from 5 years in the future! Unfortunately humanity replayed exactly the problems he addressed. But the good news is there are and always will be people like him resisting the stupid cowardice of mankind
Still prophetically correct after all these years. Sure do miss you George.
Honestly he’s the voice of reason!
I MISS HIM SO MUCH! 😭😭😭😭 BEST Comedian & Philosopher ❤❤❤
I grew up in a less than hygienic household, ad I rarely get (or got) sick or have health issues. Go figure.
justforever96 I was constantly sick when I was a kid, I never get sick anymore. Your body gets used to things after a while. People don't understand that we are really just another species of animal, we have the ability to adapt.
+William Cronshaw I usually get sick around Winter. Otherwise, I'm healthy.
+justforever96 yeah alot of people always complain about how picking your nose/ears and eating it gets you sick and its disgusting, when in reality eating your mucus actually builds your antibodies and makes you more resistant to whatever you might inhale
Yes, George has been a great addition to my own "mental health"!
George Denis Patrick Carlin (12 de mayo de 1937 - 22 de junio de 2008) fue un comediante, actor, autor y crítico social estadounidense. Era conocido por su comedia negra y sus reflexiones sobre política, psicología, religión y varios temas tabúes. Su monólogo de "siete palabras sucias" fue fundamental para denunciar un caso de corrupción en la Corte Suprema de los Estados Unidos. Considerado como uno de los cómicos más importantes e influyentes de todos los tiempos, un periódico lo calificó de "decano de los comediantes de la contracultura".
I miss this man.
Im gonna miss this man forever. Thank you George
