I am pretty well versed in the works of Hicks. I agree with a vast majority of what he has to say. I am sick and disgusted with society just as much as he is….. But marketing is not evil. It simply cannot be as it is not a living creature. Those that use it for “bad” are evil. It’s a tool, like money that’s often used for evil purposes. I always look at commercials and point out the bullshit in it. I just don’t believe that that’s the commercial’s fault, it’s the advertisers, and..
Mate, he makes a good point. Doesn’t matter how he says it, he saysit straight, that’s what we need. You are doing what he just said you would do; rationalize. “he is doing it wrong, it’s the lowest form of humour”. SHUT UP!, You think he wont postmortemly succeed with this joke? LOL. Wow. Die please, painfully, starve, die, please.
he wouldn’t want that. Wow, why do people want everyone to be the same without actually knowing it.
Dont ever say what everyone should do. Why dont you adopt it , that would at least stop you from making such implicit silly remarks, friend.
That doesn’t make sense. You are not proving the relevant point; you are telling me what can be debated.
basically anyone who thinks hicks is not funny here insists that he is making a joke and insists that its not funny even if he is serious. So, satans spawns have the capacity to feel offended? That’s new. I like that. Basically you can kill and torture people in many ways. Hicks is a satirist, read it up. Also, “not true”, what is not true? What you tryin to do, friend?
@MothRoom
Not true, as someone would continually debate you about this. Guns can kill people and people can kill people. Granted, it’s not as big or profound debate as chicken vs. egg, but…. it’s still debatable.
@Molo9000 You gotta love the irony that you insist on Hicks not being funny here, then insisting that he is making a joke, but then he insists that he isn’t, so the fact you’re not laughing would mean that he is being truthful about it not being a joke. The joke’s on you. And marketing is shit. He knows what he’s saying and so does the crowd. If you feel targeted in any way, then it must be directed at you in some way. He can only be as funny to you as your wits allow…obviously lacking
“I’m not doing that”. Yes you are and you’re not even funny.
There are some great jokes to be made about marketing, but this guy is doing it wrong. Just saying “marketing is shit” and expecting a joke out of that is the lowest form of humour I can think of.
@tommbarton24
My Dad used to have a gun that used to shoot by itself…. It’s possible a gun could kill a person, I suppose. But, it’s usually a person using a gun to kill another person. It’s comparable to the chicken vs. the egg; it’s a philosophical debate that one can’t definitively say either or.
@OfAllOblivion There’s plenty of money to feed everyone in the world… Unfortunately, though, war is more profitable than peace. I have always wondered what would happen if we fed everyone rather than fought everyone (especially brown people.) I somehow doubt they would be as willing to be martyrs for the richest of their culture, just as the poor people of this country are tricked by the richest of our culture into fighting wars that only profit the already-rich.
@emerson24 You’re right. All the money we spend on defense could well pay for everyone in the world, I agree. I just meant that our currency systems of the world are all irrelevant because they just give people an excuse to not be providing for the whole world. When capitalists are asked why they don’t feel the need to ‘spread the wealth’, they always come back with bullshit jargon about finances & try to convince people that it’s too complicated. But in all reality, we simply do have the means.
@limbs32 You may have to work a shitty 9 to 5, but that does not mean you have to allow your soul to rot. You’ve got sixteen whole other hours in each day with which you can do whatever the fuck you like.
I work my shitty 9 to 5, then go home and jump headlong into working on the music that feeds my soul, for which I get paid nothing. Like all good musicians, I do it because I love it—which, let me add, is the only good reason for doing anything.
@ThorlikeSmash Have you heard of the Zeitgeist Movement or watch Zeitgeist Addendum?
society’s fault for not looking at what the ad is saying and doing. Commercial=ad.

This is the most viewed Bill Hicks video on Youtube because it has the most advertising in it.

@Molo9000 he’s making a point
bill hicks likes f5
As Karl Marx said “Neccesity will always drive the situation forward, and capitalism will destroy itself”.
@ThorlikeSmash
no.
@Molo9000
Shut up, Fucking pig.
@amazingyou1uber And what do you suggest?
“I’m not doing that”. Yes you are and you’re not even funny.

@amazingyou1uber freedom* is bullshit.
Please visit my channel,its a tribute to the great Bill Hicks.
RIP BILL,LUV & MISS YA!
our capitalism bar is at 10/10, whilst Australia is probably at 6/10. America is way to anarcho-capitalist.
533 marketing employees watched this so far hehe
