Too much truth for public self-image

People like to think of themselves as kind, benevolent, gift-givers of themselves because, having turned in fear from reality, they have nothing but themselves so like good used-car salesmen they've turned up the hype machine.

The middle classes are not good because they are better off. They are
better off because they are good. This is the fundamental truth that
socialism has always hated.

CNN: At one point in your act, you said, "Racism will never die. It will only multiply." Why do you believe that?

Rock: Well, it's never going to die. Maybe it won't multiply. Is racism going to end? No.

It's not even race. People are always going to, you know, find something wrong with people who are not the exact same as them. That's just what it is. Black, white, short, tall, religions, whatever. People are bad, man.
