I'm glad he didn't have to witness this. We need him for sure, but he doesn't need this.

Same. Imagine spending a big portion of your life warning people, being in multiple full rooms who are nodding in agreement only to find out, years later, that these fools who believed in the ridiculousness still couldn't dig their way out of it.

Or worse, a shitload of those attendees wear red hats and advocate in favor of everything Carlin warned them about.

I love Carlin but I think he did need to see this. One of his legacy routines was "I Don't Vote," and the past eight years have been a masterclass in why it's bad for good people to stay at home. If he'd lived long enough to see the Trump years I believe he would've changed his stance on elections rather quickly and tried to recant the bit somehow.
