he says it in a very serious tone with no humor to it.
He said it with sardonic, dry humor. People still laughed. They didn't get mad, they laughed. They didn't go home and do research to see exactly how true it is. They didn't put it together as a massive conspiracy that has been going on for thousands of years. They didn't write up their research efforts in a way that people could actually see. They didn't understand that they live in the actual fucking Matrix.
They laughed.
Here's an example from a few seconds after your timestamp:
I'm talking about the real owners now, the real owners. The big wealthy business interests that control things and make all the important decisions. Forget the politicians. The politicians are put there to give you the idea that you have freedom of choice. You don't.
Audience laughs
People hear it, they applaud it, because on some level they know it is true, but then they laugh at it, because it's comedy. It's exaggerated. The cognitive dissonance requires that out.
I used to love Carlin, long before I realized the larger picture, the gravity of it. When the Twin Towers came down, I thought it was likely an inside job because the physics of it made no sense. But I thought it was just some corrupt people in the US government. I thought it would change with the next election.
It never occurred to me that there was a world wide web of control by an aristocracy and there had been for hundreds of generations.
It never occurred to me I lived in The Matrix, my beliefs given to me no matter which side of the fence I landed on on any particular issue. It never occurred to me that all sides were Controlled Opposition.
Carlin gives the truth in a way that we can categorize it as "life goes on" and we go right back into The Matrix. Your example is exactly what I mean. I heard it, many years ago, and thought it was true, but exaggerated. The real picture eluded me. It is only when you realize the scope of the problem that you can really understand it. If it's "just America," or "just this President," or "just the C_A," etc., there is hope that it can change.
Carlin himself says "it's been going on for 30 years" (paraphrased). That is not the true scope. If it's only been 30 years and it's only in America, that means it will change. We don't have to worry about it as much. It's a lot less frightening. But it hasn't been 30 years, it's been 3000 at least. Until you understand the scope of The Matrix, you can't see the solution, and what we all have to do to make it happen; the change in our lives necessary to bring it about. Without seeing the real scope, you can't get enough people to be motivated to make the necessary changes.
Thus Q, and all the shit in this Shit Show.
