I mean, people REALLY should take his advice.
Not is he hilarious, he's a political genius.
Because if you listen to his show, people on there speak clear thoughts. They have beliefs and let them be known. There are verbal fights, but feelings get spoken.... Metaphors are magical.
I just watched my first episode of Real Time all the way through. It had Brad Pitt on it. He stated that there shouldn't be religion and there should be gay marriage. He said that he doesn't understand religion. He said that you can't tell people how to live their life. Then he said (to religious people) "The freedom that allows you to practice your religion is the same freedom you're stepping on." He was talking about pro-gay marriage... if you couldn't tell. It's so fucking ridiculous why it's still frowned upon. It's one of those things that just makes me want to move to Canada or England.
To clarify: I am straight. But I am extremely pro-gay. That sounds weird. What I mean by that, is that I am disgusted by how frowned upon they are in society. It's the older generation. Mine doesn't seem to have that much of a problem with it. Sure, it's a bit awkward, but I think we accept them nonetheless. Or is it just the people I hang out with? Is it just chance that I'm friends with mostly gay-accepting friends. The others just get a bit uncomfortable if they try doing anything... gay.
Once Generation Y is in control... will things finally even out?
I don't find us as traditional as the Baby Boomers. Of course, we'll still have to take care of them. There's more of them than there is of us... right? Or is it just Generation X?
