True, but the state of our society is pretty fragile in general.. I don't know if you noticed but ever since the pandemic started people have completely lost sight of what we take for granted and are acting like kids. I find it difficult to laugh at the misery of others like Stephen Crowder does.

@dipsydoodle7988 I understand.. I often find myself in a place where I feel like I can take on all manners of accountability for my own psychology.. but it seems rare in this society.. like it's a state of mind i worked hard towards. I no longer assume that others will be in that place to be responsible for their own well being. We help them but try not to enable. Teach them to fish yeah?

@dipsydoodle7988 It is an Idiocracy.. To me enlightenment comes when I accept that fact. While I may not be able to correct the error.. I certainly don't have to add to it lol

@exsmoker74 I'm pretty sure money ruined everything.. If you make everything a marketplace it is dependent on the good nature of opportunists.. They stifle creativity and never allow taking risks.. Its all about money and their perceptions of what people find offensive.. It could be argued that even having "curse words" that you can't say in front of kids creates a paradox where saying what you are not suppose to say becomes funny. We will always value vanguard comedians like George Carlin and Dave Chappelle and there will always be some cult like group that wants to ruin it like the Westborough Baptists.. Comedians should be courageous and stop caring about ticket sales. Then they can say what they want.

Crazy is crazy.. You think people are civilized until you poke at their ego.. Watch an adult throw a tantrum just for telling them they are wrong. Words do create a ripple effect. It's why we all believed Y2K was the end. It spread like a mental virus.
