    Had he lived, Lenny Bruce would be turning 83 today. His ideas continue to provoke. "Lenny Bruce is more relevant than ever when you consider the state of the country. His biggest thing was he hated hypocrisy."https://nyti.ms/2CF5hJj

        In one of his monologues he stated that marijuana would be legal about now because everyone knew law students who used it who would someday be legislators who would legalize it to cover themselves.

        If Lenny was still alive, the current situation would have killed him.

        I don't think that's true since today people aren't arrested for saying the things he'd say. There's public outrage and backlash, but people make jokes today that are 100 times more "obscene" and aren't even bothered by authorities like he was.

        It's not about his obscenity, it's about the obscenity of the times.

        Make no mistake, Bruce was the enemy of the closed-minded right.

        Hypocrisy? You mean like Jews donating millions of dollars to the Anti Israel Democratic Party and giving comfort to the Liberal Times & CNN backed PLO; That sounds like he was just about on the mark.
