Penn discusses the FCC on the Profanity episode in season 2 of Bullshit!
He brings up the Thomas Jefferson quote that "A government big enough to supply everything you need is big enough to take everything you have...The course of history shows that as a government grows, liberty decreases."
It's just Penn and Teller in your vicinity like...
...Kenan & Kel.

@MMAmachinhead92 You don't need to worry about Youtube getting censored. Just look at almost any Youtube Partner. They censor themselves even though it isn't required. They're being fucking retarded so the FCC doesn't even have to try.

I guess later on even YouTube will be censored. So I'm going to milk the free, uncensored, unfiltered language: Fuck, pussy squirt, Anal-sex-frosted-shit-on-your-dick, tight-wrinkled-fish-smelling-loose-purple-cunt, gargle-my-pearly-white-frothy-sperm-all-over-my-first-cousin.

the FCC is supposed to only regulate radio and TV stations power and make sure the signals dont cross and several other things.
it wasnt ever supposed to regulate censorship

@J88Wolf Because apparently, these words are "bad". Not because of their definitions. Many of them don't even HAVE set definitions. But because of the specific arrangement of letters and syllables.
At least, that's the only explanation I can come up with, for why "Shoot!" means exactly the same thing as "Shit!", but only the latter is ever censored, for any reason.
And yes, in the words of Penn Jillette himself....That's Bullshit.
