- George Carlin talks about soft language from the special Doin' It Again. If not 'THE', certainly one of the best comedians ever. RIP George 1937-2008 (this cut out for a second during the upload somehow, so no this was not intentionally edited. This notation will probably not be read by many considering how most people don't take the time to read descriptions and welcome any opportunity to hear themselves spew 'verbal diarrhea')

he's not a comedian, he's a stand-up philosopher
The best comedians always are
I agree. I think most, if not all comedians, are essentially philosophers. I think Andy Rooney would've made a good comedian.
But I don't think he's very funny. He has moments every now and then that I laugh at, but for the most part I just plain agree with what he's saying.
Yeah, Mel Brooks already used that one in "History of the World, Part I."

This comedic performance caused me to engage in involuntary jubilant diaphragm spasms coupled with sharp exhalation of air.

LOL!
100 Years from now George Carlin will still be a provocative speaker and Free minded human being. Thank you
reminds me of diogenes honestly
I’d be curious how he would be if he was still alive. Would he have continued to be critical of the system or just a tool hypocrit like many of his contemporaries became?
@@humantacos9800 I have often wondered the same thing. I think perhaps he would have been hijacked by the woke brigade but he may have stayed somewhat independent and free thinking. It's hard to know.
Incorrect. He would be a disturbing thought and realization vocalizer of the less comfortable subjects as well as a person of more open-ended and expressive thoughts.
George Carlin isn’t dead he’s just offline
K
he’s not offline he’s “technologically absent”
Last online: 13 years ago
Hes just 'not around'
He's "living impaired".
Lies became alternative facts...

i keked
whats funny is that came from the republicans, people who tend to be very anti-political correctness
Wish he was alive now to talk about that.
dont we all?
"Depopulating the area" sounds a lot worse than killing.
Thunderpelt06 Neutralized.
So is "neutralized"
Emperor Flick but its ambiguous, you can depopulate by moving the people, or making the place inhabitable, thats what he talked about, the phrase without context is meaningless and prone to misinterpretation.
It's not in place of 'killing'. It would have been used for displacing people to install manufacturing plants, for example.
like its cattle
"Dead" became "unalive."
This guy is a genius. His delivery is light years ahead of any comedian I've ever seen.
Geroge Carlin would piss off a lot of people at this day in age.

I was just thinking the same thing. The poor bastard would have another heart attack if he knew how fucked up we are in 2015.
+Paradigm shift Can we keep doing this crap, then hook his corpse up to a dynamo so we have free unlimited energy? ;-)
+Mitt Romney XIIV I'm sure he saw it coming.. Hence the lack of optimism for his species in his interviews.
+xXxDjShamblesxXx Right? He DID know. That's why we're watching this.
One thing my dad taught me about GOOD standup is it not only makes you laugh but makes you think.
I stumbled on George Carlin in 2019 and been hooked on his facts and truths ever since. Changes my way of living and thinking for the better. Rip sir Carlin.
Bill Hicks is my other fav (also R.I.P, but in his 30's. Is docos on him, including 1 he made w. his bro.)
My dinner party guests I'll likely never meet(or who are dead) inclu Carlin & Hicks, maybe Dalai Lama, as great sense of humor, experience wisdom & compassion.

he never got knighted by the queen he is not Sir George he is a male if thats what your meaning but in english the term sir before a name referes to one knighted by a king or queen for there chivalry, honour and or great deed done to mankind! example Sir Richard Attenborough, Sir Sean Connery (one of the first James bonds and well famous actor in so many films you have to be under a "rock" to miss him ;) there is Sir Charlie Chaplin, Sir Patrick Stewart (John Luke Picard cptn. of one of tar treks series and many other movies) there is so many more Knighted actors.

You weren't laughing, you were making rhythmical audible contractions of the diaphragm.
Oh, all the sudden you can actually hear what he is typing ?? What a fake ass tool.
Euphemisms really do distort reality.

the first time i heard prisons being referred to as correctional facilities this was the first thing that came to my mind.
Carlin was a beast. Never made it it to one of his later shows, and I'm too young to have been at his earlier ones.
While I know many do not agree on his positions (politics/religion), I think we can all agree that his delivery was masterful.
the best comedian ever...really there is no close second either.
Yes!
He's the Wayne Gretzky/Michael Jordan/Muhammad Ali/Joe Montana of comedy.
Lane Ward I'd say Louis CK comes pretty close as a second.
I do.
Though I'm assuming there are people that might not, yet can at the very least agree that his stand-up was legendary.
George Carlin, isn't dead, is on a indefinite leave of Absence .
Funny!
Coining it for my tombstone.
drugs deteriorate
George isn't a comedian. He's a humorously irreverent philosopher.
Who engages in 'realistic discourse covering the topics of our time' to 'willing customers interested in investing their savings in entertainment options'
Observational humorist (such as the late Douglas Adams).
"Rich people" became "job creators".
wealthy people are job creators, rich people are international money launderers. lol
DmaxHd Perhaps in light of the personhood of corporations, we merely work for people with cashflow deficiencies?
Nope. You just give it to your brats so they can maintain the ruling order.
^ Sounds like someone born with the $$. Cool for him.
You dumb fucks, who signs your checks, rich people or Bernie Sanders? Give me a break
If someone can control how we talk about certain subjects, then that person has succeeded in controlling how we THINK about certain subjects. Carlin once said that, "the purpose of language is to reveal and convey meaning and thought" and that euphemisms were the exact opposite of that. Euphemisms conceal the truth and hide reality. Everyone is entitled to an opinion, even if it is a stupid, boneheaded, hurtful opinion. Let the public decide when they've been offended, not some small group of "offenderati." DON'T use the power of the State to enforce opinions (and by extension, thinking), because that's a road you DEFINITELY don't want to go down.

A true comedian is the one that isn’t afraid to say the truth as it is in a certain indirect manner but still pop up directly into your mind.
I wish he was still alive so he could see how absurd the world has become nowadays.
god help us all
In a way, he saw it before any of us.
Lol everyone is so fucking stupid. Just Sayin'.
Dear God, stop your pathetic nostalgia. It prevents you from seeing the truth. It's always been like this. Perhaps the tiny, fine print details change, but the underlying themes stay the same. Rich, conservative fools are in power, and it is our fault. Carlin wasn't a prophet, or an intuitive. He was a gifted observer.
As a person who hates political correctness, this is easily one of my favorite skits of his.
WhiteTigerShiro People who are smart and conscious hate political correctness.
People with tourettes syndrome hate it even more. They can't go outside anymore.
@@Imtotallydiggingthis oh rly? I'm serious, without any irony. Seriously?
He always mocked what we considered to be annoying and agitating at the time!
He woukd have a field day with these crazies ... RIP
Dude George was a leftist
So smart, so funny, so observant, True genius!
Shut up
People should listen to this more often. Direct language is fading with all these softening words.

"What is political correctness but another form of gentrification?"
Trey and Park must've been inspired by this Carlin stand-up in specific
I bet Trey and Matt loved Carlin like them he got his message out there using comedy
"Political correcteness" exists anywhere in those who are unwilling or unable to speak truth to power, regardless of political inclination. It is only the manipulable/impressionable that use it as a tribalist buzz term.
I remember my mom watching this guy late at night when I was a kid, and I could here it from here room. I'm glad that we have TH-cam and I can finally see all of Georges work, I miss this guy. Thank our lord Joe Pesci for George Carlin.
This guy was the best!
Pure gold. Really miss this naturally funny guy. 😞
Sad thing is, if we are referring to an object, one well-loved, "classic," "vintage," "timeless," we do not mind calling it "old."
"I won't have to die, i'll passed away." hahaha
*pass
My idiot father introduced me and raised me with George somewhat so when he died a few months ago, I've just been telling people "Dad's dead." Which is apparently jarring for some people. After rewatching this again after sometime, I know I've been doing it correctly, for both their sakes.
@@jamesanderson6373Thanks, I never would have understood what they meant otherwise.
As liberal as I am, I agree with George - "soft language" winds me the fuck up!

George Carlin was one of history's greatest comedians and political commentators and visionaries.
We need men like him today to tell the truth.
Miss you so much George. Your fearlessness in saying what you mean is a quality more of us need. (Including me... and I'm working on it. :) )

Sadly, I spend more time nodding than I do laughing with George Carlin's material. Sure, 20 years ago this was something to laugh about, now it's fodder for depression.

Man, if George Carlin could come back and see Tumblr....
+Samuel Ortiz Actually I think George would agree with Trump on some things.

@@KletoReese There was a year where the website was trying to get words like "idiot" and "stupid" labeled as abelist. No, I'm not kidding.

Yo somebody bring this man back😭😭
life is lived backwrds
I’ve always loved George Carlin, lol.. his humor always makes you think about stuff.
I really wish George was still alive. His comments on 2016 would probably kill the better portion of the world with laughter but eh fuck it least we'd die happy.
I would love to hear of what George has to say on the elections.
Mitchell Toulouse He would comment on the political correctness problem for sure. He'd shit on the media, all of the politicians, including our "untouchable president", Wall Street, the police, climate change, social justice warriors, the alt right, the progressive left, the Clintons and he'd pin point Trump perfectly as the cherry on top of all of it.
He would then remind each one of us that it's all a big show. You can be apart of the show or you can sit back, watch the shit fly and laugh.
Bobby Mulligan pretty on point.
Actually, one of his routines was about how he didn't target politicians, since enough of the public has to like someone before they can _become_ a politician.
Which is really sad, considering how much of the country _didn't_ vote for the fat bastard.
He’s more similar to trump than any other politician
He would eviscerate both trump and clinton

It's hard to pick a favourite Carlin skit. The man's material is a bottomless comedic goldmine. But this one is right up there among his very best.
Absolutely one of the best clips from his career! If someone would offer an everything-George-Carlin CD
set I'd be there. I hope it would be required to available to all junior-high and high-school students! Way, way
ahead of his time for seeing things for what they were and sharing it with us. We've lost some really great ones
early in their careers that could have gone on to do great things. I'm glad George Carlin survived/overcame
a lot of the stuff that got others early and had a good life...but I'll always wish he was still around to offer his
insight on the current situation.
Miss you George Carlin!
He never disappoint me. I can rely on any of his videos to lighten my day.
I would love to hear his commentary on COVID.
Orwell wrote about sanitising language like this, in "Politics and the English Language"
In our time, political speech and writing are largely the defence of the indefensible. Things like the continuance of British rule in India, the Russian purges and deportations, the dropping of the atom bombs on Japan, can indeed be defended, but only by arguments which are too brutal for most people to face, and which do not square with the professed aims of the political parties. Thus political language has to consist largely of euphemism, question-begging and sheer cloudy vagueness. Defenceless villages are bombarded from the air, the inhabitants driven out into the countryside, the cattle machine-gunned, the huts set on fire with incendiary bullets: this is called pacification. Millions of peasants are robbed of their farms and sent trudging along the roads with no more than they can carry: this is called transfer of population or rectification of frontiers. People are imprisoned for years without trial, or shot in the back of the neck or sent to die of scurvy in Arctic lumber camps: this is called elimination of unreliable elements. Such phraseology is needed if one wants to name things without calling up mental pictures of them. Consider for instance some comfortable English professor defending Russian totalitarianism. He cannot say outright, ‘I believe in killing off your opponents when you can get good results by doing so’. Probably, therefore, he will say something like this:
‘While freely conceding that the Soviet regime exhibits certain features which the humanitarian may be inclined to deplore, we must, I think, agree that a certain curtailment of the right to political opposition is an unavoidable concomitant of transitional periods, and that the rigors which the Russian people have been called upon to undergo have been amply justified in the sphere of concrete achievement.’
