remember, regardless of how outspoken you are in life, nothing will stop the capitalists from reanimating your defiled corpse into a shitheaded centrist zombie if there’s a buck in it:

“I’d just like to say that as much as I think billionaires are destroying the fabric of society with unchecked greed and blatant self-interest at the expense of basic human rights for everyone else, it is a little strange to me that people get mad at them. People are the ones who gave them the money in the first place," the AI Carlin said.

(editor’s note: the above is supposed to be a joke from the comedy special these fucking assholes hijacked Carlin’s corpse to promote. I can’t find the punchline, but it’s supposed to be a joke)

    I grew up on Carlin’s HBO specials. If it weren’t for the odd crowd (overly excited in a couple places, flat in a couple others) I wouldn’t have been able to tell the difference. The jokes are witty and in his style. The delivery is excellent and even some of the really subtle inflections of his voice are there.

    I don’t know if I’m OK with it, but the execution is incredible. It’s like watching Watson win Jeopardy, or depending on your world views, an episode of Black Mirror in real life.
