		Eumenes on Oct 22, 2023 \| parent \| context \| favorite \| on: George Carlin's "Soft Language" (2019) No doubt but he's a comedian, not a philosopher. Carlin's crusty curmudgeon personality never did much for me. I'm an atheist but his whole anti religion shtick really turned me off.

I recommend consulting his early/middle material... 1967–1990 maybe. You're only really referring to his last 10–15 years or so.
