My only disappointment in life is that I have not read every word Mr. Ellison has written and seen every video he is in. I thank the gods of intelligence for Harlan every day. I will subscribe just for this video alone. Double, triple, quad something thank you.
“Not sure if Turian heaven is the same as yours, but if this thing goes sideways and we both end up there, meet me at the bar. I’m buying.” - Garrus Vakarian.
I'd assume that too, but after listening to some other interviews, it feels more like Harlan doesn't want to visit a country that gladly butchers his work just to make it more appealing to German audience. Stuff like changing I have no Mouth and I Must Scream to I Have No Mouth and I'm Screaming.
He'd fit in more if he went to germany (considering most of the top guys are jew themselves), like what the other guy said, Germany's known for heavy censorship.
That was awesome. I think Harlan was an opinionated man, but I think all things considered he was fair. Talented writer with an interesting personality. I don’t agree with everything he said, but I respect him and I would not care whether or not that sentiment was returned because people will be people and we like what we like and so long as you are not hurting others or yourself then go ahead. Cheers!
@@crummylion He was dodging the question because he knew for a fact the journalist would not appreciate his true feelings on the subject. Not because he didn't know it.
to be honest I think he doesn't know the details of what's happening in the middle east and he most likely doesn't know that Israel is actually European. He just generalized all of us because of our issues but honestly I don't blame him. I don't expect much of a guy full of hate. I still love him though
The more interviews I listen to of this guy, the more I wish he was still alive to call out the bullshit happening today.
Hopefully Harlan would have called Matpat out on his brain-rot
@@Levinewakwhat?
The game theorist
@@Levinewak what did matpat do?
Hear hear! If we still had Ellison and Hitchens around we would be in a different world. It makes my stomach turn with sadness just thinking about it.
Sounds like AM going on some crazy rant
HARLAN, COME BACK, PLEASE COME BACK. WE MISS YOU!
Donald Trump please save me, please save me Donald Trump 🤣🤣🤣🤣
"I'm not a political commentator" ... haha. Oh, Harlan
🤣
Actually it reminded me a lot of similar comments by George Carlin.
"crazy as a butterfly on absinthe." THAT is a metaphor.
he'd already said "-as a soup sammich"
Harlan was smart...they expected him to pick a side and he simply said "Fuck Off stop killing each other and actually come up with a solution"
Seems like a clever guy, but from his answer you can tell he doesn’t know much of anything about the situation.
Which in his defense he admitted.

same
This is the most beautiful and relevant thing TH-cam has ever recommend. Eloquently put Harlan Elison.
I've heard far more wisdom in those fantastic few minutes from the late great writer than I've heard in the rest of my lifetime about the middle east.
He’s so fucking based
“Not sure if Turian heaven is the same as yours, but if this thing goes sideways and we both end up there, meet me at the bar. I’m buying.” - Garrus Vakarian.
This is basically what I did with my Sims.
harlan was the first to say it!
Does anyone know why Ellison would never want to go to Germany? Was it just about him being Jewish or was there anything more specific?
🗿
Nazis nazis nazis

@@nofuxgiven37 Bro, what century are you living in?
Dude i love this guy
Endlessly based
He’s right and a genius!
Would you rather be in a room with a peaceful bear or a pissed off Harlan Ellison?
Depends if he's on my side.
@@LuficariusRatspeed He was told you distributed his stories without his permission (RIP the Goat)
@@cannedfrootloops7803 He wouldn't get pissed for a rumor, though.
Bear, bear, bear, not AM!
A voice of clarity.
Ok but tell me how you really feel.
No wonder he had to be the voice for AM
Just because I enjoy lima beans doesn't make me a pervert. I blame anime.
I was raised on Lima beans. My mom's family was from the South.
"Solution for Palestine"
Doesnt mention Palestine once
I have a opinion on geo-politics and i must say it
And what is that?
he kind of sounds like Chris griffin here
Funny but a bit too bothsidesy for my taste.

Sounds Shady
So sad that his position on the Israel situation has become passe.
Didn't he die in 2018 and didn't the war start like... Last year
no? the conflict began around the same time as the initial establishment of israel haha
Pretty sure it started or at least worsened around 1948
This comment is so sad. People really don't know what's going on lol
nope its been going on for more than 80 years
I know it's been about 2 weeks but... you can still delete this
he doesn't know what he's talking about. Good writer though.
He's saying people need to stop killing each other over there. That's not hard to understand.
He already admitted several times in the video that he didn't know the situation and tried to dodge the question. That part was obvious.
@@crummylion He was dodging the question because he knew for a fact the journalist would not appreciate his true feelings on the subject. Not because he didn't know it.
No, he does know what he's talking about, the problem is you're too thick to understand him and his point of view. A good writer indeed.
to be honest I think he doesn't know the details of what's happening in the middle east and he most likely doesn't know that Israel is actually European. He just generalized all of us because of our issues but honestly I don't blame him. I don't expect much of a guy full of hate. I still love him though
