I tried watching it, and had to bail halfway through it….the second hand embarassment was too much to handle.

It’s also wild just how dumb he comes across…his autism clearly benefits his intellect in some ways, but his internal logic for constructing convincing arguments is at a grade school level. It’s bizarre af.

…..side note: it’s pretty funny watching clips of Maher’s “Club Random” and hearing just how dumb he is, when he‘s (a) stoned, but mainly (b) doesn’t have his opinions researched and written out for him by his staff. Left alone on the pod, the second any conversation delves any further than the surface layer, and he’s flailing like a fish….he also has “aha” moments of some genius point he thinks he’s making….that his guest said nearly verbatim 5 minutes earlier. It can be a riveting train wreck.

Yeah…. I watch Bill Maher despite Bill Maher.
He’s smug, clumsy, mean spirited, and not particularly funny. I watch for some of the interesting guests, fast forwarding through the opening monologue

same, opening interview can be good and overtime depending on the guests.
 
…another note about ’Club Random’. More than anything it exposes how much heavy lifting his suit does on ‘Real Time’.

The man dresses like his wardrobe is the lost & found.
 
I was curious to see how they would define the greatest threat to humanity (the woke mind virus according to them) and all they could come up with was
"something, something, my friend’s kids are taught Washington was a slave owner"
 
It’s incredible how much the likes of Rogan and Maher cry week after week after week, about cancel culture, and how you can’t say anything anymore.…while telling themselves they’re a modern day Lennie Bruce, fighting ‘the man’.

Just what exactly are you racist fucks wanting to say so bad, that society won’t let you??

One last thing on Maher/Elon I gotta vent….they make mention of this meme he posted, and Maher was slobbering over how much it hit the nail on the head and it’s just how he feels…

1) The obvious point almost not worth mentioned….the far right has obviously moved further right, than the liberals have moved left.

but

2) You’re 51 and 67 respectively….did you two think ‘the left’ was some static destination you arrive at, a goal you accomplish and you’re done?….what part of “progressive” threw you for a loop?

….or was the left only supposed to be progressive enough to legalize weed, and subsidize electric vehicles.

the one thing they really don't want to come to grips with is that they are not hip young people but just old rich white guys whose political beliefs have gravitated towards what rich old white guys always do.
 
oh you're a 50 something white kajillionaire? let me guess what your political profile is.
 
At least, Bill Maher, for all his warts, doesn’t bothsides things. He regularly makes it clear the far right is way more damaging than the far left.

He was very quiet about that during his fan interview with Elon

I also think people of a certain ilk, hit 40 or 50, and they think they’re done growing….no need to ever update their heuristics again. They have their mental models that have worked great up until now, so no need to ever question their veracity again or update them with new superior information.

Whatever their instinctual gut reaction is, that has to be the right take….and these kids who strongly believe something different, are just being hysterical.
