I think the general consensus is that it's Dave Chappelle.

Yeah George Carlin was the master of the rant be it the Catholic church, government etc.

George would have a field day with all the language changes we've seen in the last decade.

George never hit low so comparing Dave Chapelle, a renowned homophobe to George Carlin, is actually quite insulting to Carlin.

Chapelle can’t compare to a pimple of Carlin’s butt.

I agree, Nobody. Dave Chapelle, is too cozy to celebrities.

Bill Maher but he’s obviously not as good as Carlin

Not Bill Maher, not even a little.

Louis C.K. was before he got cancelled.

The best comedian is thought to be Dave Chappelle. But he's more like the heir apparent to Richard Pryor.
Chappelle isn't a countercultural voice for white people. In fact, Chappelle is Muslim, homophobic, transphobic, etc., which is all cringey.
George Carlin would never accept any religious bullshit, especially Islam.

Chappelle also makes excuses for any celebrity friend clearly guilty of rape and abuse — and even celebrities who aren't friends if they're black.
Note his unauthoritative defenses for Louis C.K. and R. Kelly.

There are a lot of guys who would say Joe Rogan, seriously.

Howard Stern is the closest to Carlin these days — same generation; largely the same outlook.
But he's getting LOOOONNG in the tooth.

The young generation likes Stephen Colbert and Jon Stewart.

Amanda Seales. She tells it like it is with no bullshit.

But Dave Chappelle doesn't tell it like it is. He tells it like blacks and friends are innocent when they're provably guilty and he thinks Mohammed cleft the moon in half.
Chappelle is keepin' it real CONVENIENT.

R19 There is a world of difference between Louis C.K. , who I am still unsure about what he did wrong, and R Kelly who held sex slaves.

US: probably Colbert and Lewis Black. UK: Dylan Moran. That's pretty much it, sadly....

Wanda Sykes came to mind immediately. She expresses WTF-ness as expertly as Carlin did.

I would say Stewart Lee, but although he has keen insight into the pathologies of the U.S. his viewpoint is specifically British and his work isn't really distributed here.
