I love the way Patrice breaks down how Hollywood works better than a Harvard educated professor would. He was almost ' Too real' for show business and shows why some of the highest paid actors/ musicians/ comics are not necessarily the most talented. Patrice died in 2011 and via his KZbin videos has given me more real life advice/ insights than anybody I have met in my entire life including family. In Show-business you may have to sell your soul to the devil to get to the top.

You can, but freedom of speech doesn't mean freedom from repercussion: it never has.

[@goreds551]

@@rustyshackleford735 "...but freedom of opinion does not mean freedom from repercussion..." It really depends on if we define freedom as simply being physically able to perform an act or as having the legal right to do so. If those repercussions include the threat of violence to censor an unpopular opinion than there definitely is a legal right to freedom from those repercussions, wether or not that freedom from repercussion is enforced by stopping somebody who makes that threat of violence is a different matter. If those repercussions include having your tweets, that express opinions covered by the first amendment, deleted because Twitter decides to act like a publisher instead of a platform there is a legal right to freedom from repercussions. But wether or not Twitter chooses to honor your legal right to freedom from repercussion, in this case by not violating your first amendment right, is again a different matter.

[@rustyshackleford735]

@@goreds551 no: freedom to do a thing means you can do said thing legally, it's that simply. It doesn't mean everyone can go around saying anything without a response; a person chooses their actions with a sense of possible repercussions and when repercussions happen that's the result of that person's own choices. As they say, you make your bed, sleep in it. Our opinions themselves are repercussionless, and a person's thoughts are their own, but our actions effect everyone and are always subject to judgement.

[@rustyshackleford735]

@@goreds551 tweets aren't covered by the first amendment. Twitter is a private business that has its own right to set rules of conduct in order to use their business. Much like I have the legal right to climb a tree, but I don't have the right to climb a tree at the zoo, because they have the right to set a code of conduct within their business that indeed infringes upon my personal freedom to climb a tree. Of course your rights can be infringed upon by someone else who is doing so illegally and using methods that aren't unacceptable, but all rights have infringements attached to them and I'd argue that that's a good thing, otherwise your own freedoms can be hampered by another's with no repercussions, and freedom itself would further diminish, as the very concept that your freedoms can not infringe upon another's freedom is itself an infringement. In other words my freedom to pursue happiness if not infringed upon by not being allowed to to say kidnap and rape someone else, would of course create an environment of survival of the fittest and leave us generally with less freedom than ever. Twitter being able to delete a users account for not liking the person's conduct is no different than me being able to tell someone to leave my house because I don't like their conduct. A person can retain their freedom to act like a prick, but that doesn't mean they're free to do it in my home. Who's to say what's prickish? In my home/business it's me.

[@goreds551]

@@rustyshackleford735 Freedom to do a thing means you can do said thing legally." If you define freedom as acting in a legal manner yes. "...It does not mean everyone can go around saying anything without a response..." This is not relevant to what I wrote. I'm not arguing that there is a freedom from a mere response over what one says. That response, if we are talking about a verbal or written reaction and it's within the confines of the law, is also covered by the first amendment afterall. I argued that there is a freedom from illegal actions like being censored in the case of Twitter or being threathened for having an unpopular opinion. That should be self explanatory.

When Katt Williams was talking about Hollywood I thought about this interview and how Patrice was speaking truth about Hollywood back then. Man I can only imagine how big he would have been had he still been alive today. 😢 He is certainly missed.

[@williamkennedy468]

The best thing I've ever heard Patrice talk about. This is brilliant.

Man!! Straight up!

[@kevinarthur8488]

Patrice and norm are my 2 all times favorite comedians and maybe 2 favorite people ever that I’ve never got to meet and sadly never will. They were more than comedians. They were really philosophers that just happened to send their messages in comedy form. True geniuses.

The "Patrice O'Neil Experience", would have every single chance/possibility to be the biggest podcast on the planet right now if he was still alive and got into the game around the same time as Joe Rogan. It would be a battle between the two every single week on who was number 1 that week or month. Their were sooooo many untapped stories/knowledge/parts of his mind that we never got a chance to open up and explore. R.I.P. Patrice.

[@arisingtide4974]

Patrice would have Rogan by miles, but he never would have done it as long as Rogan.

[@pleaserewind295]

@@arisingtide4974 Rogan's work ethic is a big part of the success.

[@Mexapino]

the same thing almost happened with Kevin hart and he had that gay tweet/joke about IF HIS SON WAS GAY joke from like 10yrs prior or else hollywood wouldn't let him host the grammy awards. shit's real. Patrice was so beyond his years. I still can't believe he passed in 2011. I've been listening to alot of these radio casts and jokes. he talked so much real shit. If he didn't die from his stroke and lived into 2020 with how much social media/netflix/podcasts/comedy has grown.I say Patrice would be right up there with dave chappelle, gabriel iglesias, joe rogan, bert kreischer, tom segura, ari shaffier, andrew schulz, ETC. look at all the comedians that have hilarious stories about Patrice. he was a legend! rest in paradise brotha!!

[@Gobackto4chan]

Up there with which one? There’s a big gap between Dave Chappelle and Andrew Schultz. Personally I got him tied with Dave for insight/profound thoughts they’ve made me have.

[@orestispalampougioukis6043]

Did seriously just group together Dave Chappelle with Rogan Iglesias, Segura and Schulz. Are you serious dude? That's like grouping Mike Tyson with an arm-less dude.

[@RodgersXLVmvp]

You are dumb af lmao Chappelle , Patrice , Carlin, CK , Pryor , Eddie Murphy , etc. That would be acceptable. Gabriel Iglesias , Ari Shaffer , Joe Rogan, Andrew Schultz , are the same level as Chappelle...... And Patrice isnt up there with them ...? This probably the dumbest comment Ive ever read 😂 Whatd you do, just name the last 10 random comedian clips youtube recommended to you and decided they all must be legends cause they on youtube? 😂 This dude be like, "Dane Cook and Carlos Mencia the Goats! Chappelle would be up there if he never moved to Africa." 😂😂😂

[@ericcarraway6821]

Actually it was the Emmy awards. the Grammys really wouldn't have given squat about his jokes ,especially in light of rap music ,which you might not listen to actually.

Patrice really helped me. I was an aspiring artist and I keep feeling something was wrong. The money was good no doubt but it was the other shit. They absolutely want you to walk how they do and if you object they tell you that you have an attitude problem smh

@NowA NevA He is definitely not the first one. They may be religious zealots too, but I don't know too much about that. I just know that since Patrice, we have had a lot more folks who are 'willing to bend the knee' for a chance in the spotlight. I like any celebrity who is willing to call out that fucked up culture.

[@nooodles939]

Everytime something majorly controversial happens in this country (US), I always think what would Patrice say right now? His brilliance is desperately needed and I am very grateful for these old clips of Patrice talking about things on the radio. Dave Chappell and to a lesser extent Doug Stanhope are also guys who can use their intelligence to make sense of things that are totally fucked up. But to me Patrice was on a whole different level. I can listen to him talk about any subject and I will hang on his every word. Especially when it comes to relationships, Patrice was the KING
