George Carlin knew the world exactly for what it was. He simply held a mirror up to it and we simply laughed at it, because at its core our society is ridiculous.

Wars, racism, hatred, government. All societal things built up because we humans can't control ourselves, because we're still just brains swimming in chemical soup dictated by instinct.

I'm not joking when I say he was a modern day prophet.
