    “I have no problem with looting,” said George Carlin on a panel with Bill Maher (when he had a little bit of class conscience) about New Orleans in Hurricane Katrina. Then goes on to say that “the real looting that goes in in this country is the upward transfer of wealth from the poor to the rich.”

    He rips the shit out of a little mealy-mouthed RW think tank schmuck too.

    Stealing from corporations at this point when they monopoly own everything we see , hear, eat and buy is almost your duty to do.

    Fuck these people.

      George Carlin immediately calls for George W. Bush to commit ritual suicide :sicko-yes:

      And then the next thing he says is "it shouldn't be a surprise that rich white men don't care about poor black people" this owns, how can right wingers ever claim this guy

      I don't know that I trust past Maher any more than present Maher with having had any kind of class conscience, but just look at the rage and disgust oozing off of Carlin! He looks like he is close to physically attacking that guy.

      Shit, Bill Maher used to have semi-decent politics. What a sellout.

        Bill Maher used to act like he was the smartest guy in the room as a bit. In his early standups he was smug but still - at times - self-deprecating.

        Once Maher became never-have-to-work-again rich with the HBO specials and show he started believing his own schtick.

    Sorry, I'm a noob/lib/stinky little shitbaby, but I have a rookie question: how do I still shit off of Spotify? Like idk anything about cmputers but i know that all of Spotify's music is like encrypted or some shit so you can't just go into the files and download everything

          another option is rutracker.org if you don't mind translating some phrases to create an account. those russians are the backbone of piracy

              you're welcome! I've found some really obscure stuff on there and the seeders are really active even after a decade so I like to recommend it as often as I can

            Okay cool thank you that's helpful. I had always thought the English had the most pirates throughout history but then again my knowledge of 17th century maritime affairs is lacking.

              unfortunately like a lot of things in imperialist countries, they have exported their pirates to developing nations

      on Android, from the app store F-Droid, I found an app called SpotiFlyer. This lets you download playlists and stuff from Spotify

      I use an app called musi, it’s basically YouTube music but uou can turn your phone off without stopping the music and you don’t have to pay Google for the privilege of doing that

          not auditory ones, just typical app ads, i just tap the x and they go away, not too intrusive to me but your mileage may vary.

            Just use newpipe, it has the same feature but no ads whatsoever. Anything with ads almost 100% has tracking and or worse malware as well.

              Do they have an iOS version? Most of the cool stuff for avoiding ads seems to be android exclusive lol

        If there's any interviews I haven't heard them, but Jake Flores (PDA host) has been saying that he's going to be on tour with them when doing plugs. So, close enough for me.

    he followed this with these tweets :

    stealing music is far more ethical than using spotify. you have our full permission to torrent the heart in a blender song

    i fucking dare sony to send me a legal email about this lol. get fucked ghouls

    when you pay for a spotify premium account you are giving your money to their multi billionaire ceo daniel ek who then invests it in war technology
