I'm not sure what I plan to accomplish by writing this but Patrice O'Neil is responsible for changing the way I think. I haven't quite found my place in life yet but his influence and thought process will be part of the reason I make it. Thank you Patrice. Rest in paradise
I’m nothing like Patrice, my only similarity is that I am a male. But his words regarding dating and the relationship between man and woman has severely influenced my life and only for the better.

Thats the very way i feel it, when it comes to his material, and he knew he could achieve inmortality by doing the right thing, his comedy talent and his thought process he shared. He knew we would miss him, but also always kept feeling his presence and charisma even after his passing.
Most impressive thing about Dr. O Neal is discovering that other than being a hilarious comedian, he's actually extremely intelligent and forces you to think differently.. RIP
CallMeLum I’ve been following Patrice since The Chappelle Show days and this dude is the truth!!! His logical thought process is simple but yet very complex. How he feels about things are very thought out and takes a different approach from the norm. I miss this dude. Definitely one the all time greatest to be able to speak on a mic.
WhoAmI ToU WhoAmI ToU My favorite thing about him was that he always had a unique take on everything. Even if you didn’t always agree with him, you could always count on the fact that he would say something you’ve never heard before and explain it in a way that anybody could understand.
@@aidenfrost7008 Right!! I remember watching him make angry feminist struggle to hold back laughter. I've never seen a comic like him before. Of course him and Bill Burr were best friends

@AceF Bass love thy neighbor! You must! You must! God declares it law that you must! But what if you dont love your neighbor (this commenter)? Then what? Damnation?
I'm hot and cold with Patrice O'Neal's comedy material, but I have to confess, the more I listen to his POV on life, the guy has some depth of view that is pretty f*****g impressive. If he spoke with the eloquence of a BBC correspondence he'd be quoted in universities. RIP man.
The thing about hard truths and bitter pills to swallow is that they are so much more digestible when they're delivered in the form of comedy rather than a dry truth. When you are arguing your point of view with someone, the second you get them to laugh... It means they are open to considering your point.
Patrice was amazing how he articulated his thoughts so graciously. This man couldn't do a bad show cause he always dropped bars of knowledge and perspective that always makes me feel like I've gained something just from hearing what's on Patrice's mind. RIP to a Legend. The most genuine dude in comedy, probably ever. His stance on what he believes is true gangsta type shit.
Yeah.....they observe life and very emotional. Comedians should be paid alot more than they do. They provide us with an escape, with laughter, with insight and perspective, and we learn some raunchy cringeworthy stuff too lol
Golden Knight, the interviewer, who’s white, and obviously comfortable having the conversation, asked him his views about race the entire 13+ minutes. He obliged him. What would u have preferred happen? U like the dishonesty, right, where Black people keep the racism and hate they c people that look like them receive and say it doesn’t exist. After white people hanged Black folx from trees and legislation said they’d be punished 4 doing it, they just immediately began loving them and wanting to integrate schools and work spaces with them, right? Ur parents don’t teach u the history of how ur great grandparents and grandparents treated Black people in this country. U don’t learn nearly enough of it in school bcuz it’s embarrassing. Stop talking about race as if u’ve somehow immersed urself in it at any point 2 find common ground. U just want Black people 2 suppress it and lie 2 u that everything is ok now, even though u didn’t do anything 2 make them whole, and carry on like nothing ever happened. That’s y sh*t lingers and doesn’t change.
Golden Knight, Black people collectively don’t have the power 2 alter ur ascension in life in any manner. We don’t own corporations or make policy that can prevent ur children from eating or going 2 the best schools or living in the most lucrative areas. The wealthiest Black people r not really in position 2 do that 2 u. The lowliest white person can call the authorities on u and have u escorted from places of business, places of residence or public places, simply bcuz they feel “threatened” from the presence of Black people or people that may speak a different language in some manner. Ur not even really understanding what racism is in totality of how complex and nuanced it is. U think if a dude is not wearing a white sheet he’s not a bigot. If u really truly want 2 understand u need 2 diversify where u receive information, straight up.
Golden Knight, I’m talking about the U.S., “the leaders of the free world”. They had 43 previous white presidents, 1 Black 1, a douche bag 2 follow him up, and now racism is totally a figment of Black people’s or any people of color’s imagination. Golden Knight, u win. Ur level of understanding the reasons Black folx generally don’t trust u or disengage from seeing things through ur lens is original and unprecedented. I’m in sheer awe of ur insight. Carry on young man. Best wishes going 4ward.
we have the best opportunities for anybody from any race. I'm mixed race, grew up in poverty to a single mom and now I'm arguably upper middle class because I worked hard every day. The modern progressive white liberals are actually white supremacists. They view black people as lesser than themselves. They tell black people to STAY where they are. They constantly remind them, and their children that they are at the bottom. When in reality they are not, and have the ability to surpass their white peers. But it never feels that way to them, because of the white liberals constantly projecting their supremacist views.
@@HoodrichShinobiand this is an actual truth, may not be the complete and whole truth, but it’s real, and people aren’t saying that shit. Every day black ppl align themselves with a party that started the KKK. Black people saying they can’t be racist in a way is like admitting they view themselves as inhuman. Every human being on this planet can be racially biased, if not racist. It’s logical thinking, now maybe colonially and historically, black ppl en masse don’t have the power to Jim Crow white ppl’s lives. It’s probably worse in the continent of Africa. A lot of these racists are white liberals.
I didn’t think I could love this man any more until I found this clip tonight. A serious serious understanding of the human condition. I would give anything to hear his take on the world right now.
I've always said most people are racist toward a certain race in a way or another, (as a guy who was born in middle east) toward arabic africans, indians and lower economical countries nearby.. No matter how the few smarter guys try to hide it they always go home to who they're confortable with and bash someone because of his race as an inferior human being.
amanda miller don’t speak with your emotions though, I never said one race is ACTUALLY superior to the other, read then reply, and don’t tell me you never made fun of any culture before because of their really odd habits or lifestyle at least once with your inner circle.
@KDAYYZ250 I never saw your comment and I stumbled across this because I was looking for a Patrice O'neal joke lol It has a layered meaning, it represents the Black man that is ignored, ostracized, and isolated. Like Patrice references in this videos, I can acknowledge racism and that it exists, but that doesn't mean I need to subject myself to someone's idea of who I am or what I should do based solely on skin color, but should I say things or voice certain opinions outside of the color norm its a problem.
Patrice is responsible for waking me up to the way relationships between men and women work. If I didn’t accidentally stumble upon his content on O&A I would probably still be a blue pilled early 20’s man. Since I started listening I have had fewer relations with women because I look at myself as a prize and I’m working on myself and expanding my own value instead of finding happiness in a woman.

I put him on my headphones at work and man it flies by just listening to pure knowledge and comedy on his part I’m grateful for all the UA-cam videos of Patrice

Why doesnt he get credit for starting the mgtow movement. All of that shit started with Patrice back in the early 2000s on O&A. The greatest mind of a fuckin generation and i miss him more than most of my relatives.
American slavery has no face but white to hold accountable while the Jewish plight had a specific leader and followers to hold accountable. Hence the generalization of all white Americans as possible descendants or proponents of the oppressor.

As Brett Weinstein stated on Rogan; racism is a part of our DNA. All of us, though, so universal to humans as a species. It often comes out in tribalism or us vs. them.
@@peterlam5697 Odd how in here you're chastising racism But a few threads up you're calling everyone "white boy" and saying "white people can't handle the truth" and other racist shit you fucking hypocrite asswipe.
I’m baffled by the racial animosity when in New York. Fucking hell. I’ve been living in Brazil - a country with a history of slavery and oppression - for over a decade and I’ve never had a problem sharing brews with black people at the bar...people.
I would be very curious to see Patrice’s take on race and politics today. I know he wouldn’t be a social justice warrior but I know he would speak objectively and have an interesting ‘brutally honest’ take. I bet he would have find the far left and far right stupid but have his own unique take on discrimination like he did here.
@@tommymc7535 He owns up to his statements. It's why he always states that what he says could just be sophistry. No point in playing gotcha with a dead guy like I have no business defending him.
@@oneepie I’m not playing gotchua with him I was just more suspired that a good amount of comments found his take intelligent. He’s sill a classics comic
I wish Patrice was here during thses times of rioting and protests... I am 24 years old and understand these are historical moments for not only our country but the world. He'd speak truth and make you laugh about it. Just wish he was here, man.
This was great, especially the end part about busing and South Boston High School being a civil servants exam school. I've been in school for education a while and taken a lot of classes about racism in Boston-area schools, but nobody has mentioned the reality that Patrice did.
I think I get what Patrice is saying. The "Tetragrammaton" was the name for God's name because Jews believed his name to be too holy to be said, that we weren't worthy to say his actual name. Giving names for names, so you don't have to say the name is an old concept. Never once considered that about the N-word.
A lot of these comments are exactly why black people are still angry. This comment section is full of white people who either: a. don't know the history of the us, or b. think slavery was no big deal. Both of which come with the perceived racial superiority that allows them to lecture black people on how to deal with a country that has never liked them when they themselves have never experienced that. Someone asked me what it's like to be black in america. And my response is always the same. It's exhausting. You experience life, all while people are telling you that what you're experiencing isn't real. It's like an episode of the twilight zone, honestly.
Then you have the Brandon Tatum's and Candace Owens of the World feeding a self hate bias narrative. I'm all for ditching the Victimhood card. It's not even about that. But they are purposely trying to belittle other Blacks while getting paid. That's not authentic. Let's have a deep conversation about our issues but don't pander and sell your souls.
Oh, c'mon, if you want to use fancy words, at least look them up in a dictionary. I'm sure you mean 'profound', not 'prolific'. And painting everyone with the same brush ("you have the skin of the enemy") doesn't strike me as a very nuanced approach to thinking about race either.

Patrice communicated in a different plane, hell I still think people don't fully get him. From my perspective, at first, he seemed harsh and crude. Then when I actually listened to his words, he was righteous and authentic. Not that I hated Norton or Opie, but, I couldn't wait for Patrice to replace them.

@@cuttight I'm interested. Can you recommend some reading?
Thank you sooo much for this post!!!
The dude was a genius, and logical he may be the wittiest human ever
Rest in piece boss man, thanks for giving the advice every guy needs. Sleep well
Patrice and his take on race seems to bridge the gap between all races. I study him.
What Maron failed to get it that Patrice was speaking at him, not to him.
sub5ound1 what the fuck does that mean?
@@The13point1 using him as a catalyst, not him directly. probably
I mean, we can love what Maron can do but he ain't on the same level as Patrice. We just really want to hear Patrice.
@@xenofurmi Maron is a fantastic host...
everyday I think about Patrice. What Kanye is going through right now, Patrice would be able to explain it phenomenally.
This almost made me cry, I hate thinking about topics I wish I had his thoughts on
When Patrice says "umm..." you know some profound shits coming.
9:32 my family's been here since 1619 way ahead of his time Patrice O'Neal
Negropolis State!!! That made me laugh for a minute.
Lol
Never thought of it that way. Learned something today.
lmao that mustache is the devil
ahahahhahahahahahhahaha
I would of loved to hear what’s Patrice thought about django .. that dude dying took out a lot of great conversations that could of been had
This has Malcolm X written all over it.
Are you referring to Patrice's statements and philosophies in this clip in general? Or the fact they both grew up in Boston back in it's rougher days?
And, oh, a piece of semi related trivia for you or anyone else interested : Farrakhan also grew up in Boston, where he was a child prodigy on the violin (I only learned this because he had been an alumni of the highschool I graduated)
earl pipe Patrice used to jokingly refer to himself as Malcom XXL :)...I think the influence is very visible in his approach to life..integrity and keeping it real and honest on things that were important to him...
This has genius written all over it.
@@twenty__five__52 The two are not mutually exclusive.
@@earlpipe9713 Farrakhan is a vile religious bigot. He just exploits his skin colour and the race debate to spread vile religious bile.
Goddam genius. Bless you patrice!
Racism is genius?
@@Illumirage🤡
Incredibly insightful. What a legend
....I'm an aspiring comedian....my first performance was scheduled a few weeks ago....I hope some day to be as insightful.... intelligent....and hilarious as this man...
Remember: your jokes are for you, not for your audience. If the audience happens to find your jokes funny, then so be it.
I also was just about to start doing open mics. I'm not sure what to do with my material during this quarantine.
Take what he said, change the races and have it coming from a white man.
@@vajoynus that's the biggest load of shit I've ever heard. If you're telling them to yourself in front of the mirror, sure. But if you're telling them at a comedy club where people are spending money, you hone your craft to give people a good experience. You're a fucking idiot.

In 2020. Relevant as ever.
A genius who was also the greatest jester in the court. What a combination.
genius
This guy is so smart. A philosopher that does comedy part time.
You are actually a simp
No, he’s a comedian. I’m not sure you understand philosophy.
Yo nah he's a comedian who has profound thoughts/statements, by that sentiment every insightful rapper is a philosopher that does poetry part time.
He's gone but surely over 100hrs on yt
Spot on
This sounds like a personal conversation but Patrice can have this same conversation freely with anyone...that's what I respect about him!
this is so true...
The closest people I can think of we may have to Hitler would be Willie Lynch, Jim Crow, and Margaret Sanger.
Willie Lynch wasn't a real person, at least not in the time period that the letter was allegedly written in.
If what you're saying is true, who delivered his speech at the bank of the James River in the colony of Virginia in 1712?
Thomas Jefferson (wrote the Declaration yet had slaves), Roger B. Taney (Dred Scott Decision), 99% of the white deep South.
Damn, we need Patrice now more than ever...he would have a perspective that we need now! JUSTICE FOR ALL
He explained that PERFECT!!! WOW FUCKING GENIUS.
Long live Patrice O'neal. Greatest comic of all time.
I put him on my headphones at work and man it flies by just listening to pure knowledge and comedy on his part I’m grateful for all the UA-cam videos of Patrice
Wow, Louis CK stole his whole "The N Word" bit
WhoAmI ToU lol I doubt Patrice is the first to realize this and the entire elaboration by Louis CK is far more thought out then to suggest he STOLE it. That’s silly.
@@PANIC61513 Patrice said it before Louis and Louis used damn near the same wording. That was all I was saying. Now until you can find someone else who used it you have nothing to say. Dummy
WhoAmI ToU You are the result of someone with a low capped level of intelligence watching videos where intelligent people talk about complex subjects. You start to think you’re smart and adopt their swagger, but you’re still a hollow skulled moron.
I agree...Patrice rarely get one uped on jokes....but that line killed.
@@PANIC61513 and you deduce all that based on a few on UA-cam? You're either a genius or much dumber than I initially thought. Now please, tell me more about myself based on a few posts on Social Media. Tread lightly, I'm setting you up😉
Why doesnt he get credit for starting the mgtow movement. All of that shit started with Patrice back in the early 2000s on O&A. The greatest mind of a fuckin generation and i miss him more than most of my relatives.
American slavery has no face but white to hold accountable while the Jewish plight had a specific leader and followers to hold accountable. Hence the generalization of all white Americans as possible descendants or proponents of the oppressor.
@Christopher Marlowe justifying genocide. Typical
And the face that always appears to change
@Christopher Marlowe
Why you so defensive? Lol.
@Christopher Marlowe Africans don't like black people, either.

Is Patrice o'Neil racist- he hated white people.edit: dumb question,but i mean like ,are you racist against
@@jdlc903no he wasn't a racist, why would bill burr constantly uplift O'neal if he was a racist? I wouldnt neither would Burr
Does anyone know where we can find this whole segment?
*Eastside Low Bottoms shit !*
It's from an interview with Patrice by Marc Maron. U should be able to find it if u search "Marc Maron Patrice O'Neal interview." U won't be disappointed. ✊🏾✊🏾
Thank me later.
👇🏾
Look where we are 2020, RIP Pat!
I miss Patrice so fuckin' much
As Brett Weinstein stated on Rogan; racism is a part of our DNA. All of us, though, so universal to humans as a species. It often comes out in tribalism or us vs. them.
Aaron Michelson good way to justify racism stupid
@@peterlam5697 Odd how in here you're chastising racism
But a few threads up you're calling everyone "white boy" and saying "white people can't handle the truth" and other racist shit you fucking hypocrite asswipe.
Such an important conversation -- that is really teachable in any classroom!
where is the whole video???? this was the greatest hour and a half conversation. please if you it have link it!! please!!
"We should be insurgents... but we're not"
damn. Thats real as fuck
Englewood Frank21 No.
Nah.
You dumb
That’s what I’ve always thought. White people should be eternally grateful that black people just want equality and not vengeance.
@@matthewmartinez3596 "...by any means necessary." -Malcolm X
Imagine Chappelle and Patrice locked in a room just having a conversation
they did back when both were based outta comedy cellar
It sucks that Patrice is gone, he would be a complete boss in this era! RIP
I’m baffled by the racial animosity when in New York. Fucking hell.
I’ve been living in Brazil - a country with a history of slavery and oppression - for over a decade and I’ve never had a problem sharing brews with black people at the bar...people.
Notice how quiet everyone is. They’re not just listening to Patrice they’re learning
He was comedian but he was brilliant.
Elliott Carter Correction: He was a comedian and he was brilliant!
He was brilliant and also a comedian
So relevant in 2020!
I would be very curious to see Patrice’s take on race and politics today. I know he wouldn’t be a social justice warrior but I know he would speak objectively and have an interesting ‘brutally honest’ take. I bet he would have find the far left and far right stupid but have his own unique take on discrimination like he did here.
Michael Citrenbaum his take on the last six years or so would be epic.
What he speak on hasn't changed so if he were here today, the conversation would be the same.
He'd shit in trumps mouth..
Everytime I hear his voice I grow as a person. And laugh 😃
Damn. I miss you Patrice.
Patrice: "You have the skin color of, the enemy"
that's all you took from that conversation...
@@jasontaylor5777 triggered!
He makes such blanket statements about black and white people.... it’s amazing how many people think he’s intelligent in this comment section.
@@tommymc7535 He owns up to his statements. It's why he always states that what he says could just be sophistry. No point in playing gotcha with a dead guy like I have no business defending him.
@@oneepie I’m not playing gotchua with him I was just more suspired that a good amount of comments found his take intelligent. He’s sill a classics comic
I wish Patrice was here during thses times of rioting and protests... I am 24 years old and understand these are historical moments for not only our country but the world.
He'd speak truth and make you laugh about it. Just wish he was here, man.
Patrice said some real shit!
Real racist shit.
@@spenser9908 STFU you garbage mind.
This was great, especially the end part about busing and South Boston High School being a civil servants exam school. I've been in school for education a while and taken a lot of classes about racism in Boston-area schools, but nobody has mentioned the reality that Patrice did.
I think I get what Patrice is saying. The "Tetragrammaton" was the name for God's name because Jews believed his name to be too holy to be said, that we weren't worthy to say his actual name. Giving names for names, so you don't have to say the name is an old concept. Never once considered that about the
N-word.
so deep, this needs to be a talking point on newer podcasts
Its so hard to find an actual black perspective on race. Patrice is one of the few
You can’t even apologize “ahh nah, I only put a few in the oven” 😂😂
So much sense
Too many blanket statements about black and white people for me... would have been nice to see someone press him more on certain subjects
@@tommymc7535🤡
A lot of these comments are exactly why black people are still angry. This comment section is full of white people who either: a. don't know the history of the us, or b. think slavery was no big deal. Both of which come with the perceived racial superiority that allows them to lecture black people on how to deal with a country that has never liked them when they themselves have never experienced that. Someone asked me what it's like to be black in america. And my response is always the same. It's exhausting. You experience life, all while people are telling you that what you're experiencing isn't real. It's like an episode of the twilight zone, honestly.
Cagon415
Preach brotha
Straight up
Then you have the Brandon Tatum's and Candace Owens of the World feeding a self hate bias narrative.
I'm all for ditching the Victimhood card. It's not even about that. But they are purposely trying to belittle other Blacks while getting paid. That's not authentic. Let's have a deep conversation about our issues but don't pander and sell your souls.
@@MrTee12Facts
My favorite comedian of all time. RIP PC culture killer.
He’s right, I live in Boston
Patrice should have been an optometrist for the way he's opening eyes here. Waaaaaay deep.
Damn. That's all just, damn.
God bless you Patrice
FUCK YES. so much truth here. fucking god damn it i miss this fucking guy. the people we need the most are taken from us all too soon.
We need him back!!!
One of the most prolific things that I've heard pertaining to race
Agreed
Oh, c'mon, if you want to use fancy words, at least look them up in a dictionary. I'm sure you mean 'profound', not 'prolific'. And painting everyone with the same brush ("you have the skin of the enemy") doesn't strike me as a very nuanced approach to thinking about race either.
@@cuttightIf you don't like it, don't watch.

This is basically the black cop in Boyz N Da Hood.
Deeply disturbed by the stupidity running rampant in this comment section.
Is it actually good for everyone to have a voice?
Oh, not for the government
@@Chris-eo1bp what use is it when over a million voices saying a million different things? But true that's prob what Gov wants to keep everyone divided.
