Voting the world over is a joke. IIRC it was Carlin who said “if voting mattered they wouldn’t met us do it”.

People the world over: (die for the right to vote)

One comedian: LOL they only killed them to make you think it was valuable.

The Internet: (sagely) What a wise assessment by a wise man of wisdom.

Tons of people have died for a variety of causes throughout human history. It does not mean that the causes were not silly or deluded. (e.g religious wars, Communism, Fascism etc.)

Carlin didn’t say it was silly, he said it didn’t matter. Religion, communism, fascism were all world-defining ideas, and they very much mattered to those who fought for them and against them. What am I saying, “mattered”. Go check social media, they matter right now.

Well they weren’t silly but they were definitely deluded. They still are.

Carlin was excellent at delivery, but don't confuse clever delivery with wisdom.
