Part of being a free country is the freedom to be dumb fucks.

We're cancelling cartoon skunks and Muppets and putting up rainbow flags on army bases. We let drag queens read perverse shit to 5 year olds at libraries. They're slowly taking over the world.

Our media obsesses over the pretend Royal Family in a country we beat 245 years ago. Fucking idiocracy.

Not sure I'd throw stones. We watch Washington husky football.

I can’t remember the last time I agreed with Maher, but he’s on the money here.

When he was railing on Islam.

“We’re a silly people”

“YES PEPE LEPEW IS WHY WE’RE LOSING TO CHINA”

Maher doesn’t hit the nail square but he got a piece of it.

If he said people like TKS, HH and the rest of the XidenBros were ruining the country he'd have nailed it.

China isn’t a threat to China has already won in a matter of months, so much losers lose it will make your head spin.

Well I watch them losing, it's been great!

It’s amazing the large % of our country that doesn’t understand why Maher is spot on

We’ve built a culture full of why we can’t do something instead of dreaming up ways on how to do something

This is precisely the problem. The left has been waging a culture war as a means to weaken the country, making it possible for them to steal power. They’ve been allowed to turn the United States into woke-a-stan and steal the flag. They’ve changed our election laws, taken over our schools and nearly all forms of media as a means to control elections and narratives to ensure one party rule under them. It’s beyond time to fight like hell against them. I only hope it’s not too late.

The idea of eliminating higher learning for the gifted and smart because it’s exclusionary absolutely fucking crazy.

Or turning it into a lottery system is absolutely INSANE.

His larger point about the renewed chipping away of meritocracy in favor of surface-level diversity is not something to dismiss.

His joke about "infrastructure week" was spot on. So many of this country's greatest engineering/technological achievements were either directly run by the gubmint or bankrolled by it. We don't build cool shit anymore. We? should be on a crash course right now to build like 200 to 300 new nuclear power plants in the US. Just fucking do it. Instead we let the retards find ways to prevent us from doing what is needed.

It took 20 years to build a third runway at Sea-Tac. I understand we're a representative republic and people have a right to due process, and to sue, and the people of Des Moines are butt hurt there will be a few more planes and noise, but it took 20 fucking years...to move some dirt and pour concrete because of all the NIMBY crybabies. That's one example. They made fun of the woke white idiots who whine because there aren't black people in a video game based in 1600 Poland, and now they're using them...useful idiots

Goddammit, I clicked the name and then realized I'd been drug into the fucking Tug...

Why is it so hard to understand that people can be complex and not fall into some boilerplate definition of "liberal" or "conservative"? Not every liberal is one of the woke freaks on Twitter, just like not every conservative is storming the Capitol with a confederate flag. If a clip like this of Bill Maher surprises you, you've never watched Bill Maher. For fuck's sake, his previous show was literally called, "Politically Incorrect With Bill Maher." Railing against political correctness and "calling it like he sees it" is kind of his thing.

Maher identifies with the left when it comes to most issues. He's a Hollywood animal loving pro-abortion vegetarian atheist socialist. But he's complex. He comes off as an incredibly smug asshole who thinks his farts don't stink, but his show is definitely unique in that you don't get the sense it was bought and paid for by a political party or big business (he's often pointed out the freedom of not having advertisers). His guests are overwhelmingly liberal, but not for lack of trying. His favorite guests are people like Ann Coulter (every time he interviews her, all I can think is that they have to be fucking) and Milo and Jordan Peterson, who he's always trying to get and typically gives a tough but fair interview to. He wants to be Hollywood elite, so he sometimes blows big-time actors and whatnot, but he's equally fair and tough to liberal politicians who come on the show if he has a problem with what they're doing. One of his biggest and most frequent schticks is railing on the democratic party for being weak losers who wouldn't know what winning was if they saw it (he is to being a Democrat as Hardcore Husky is to being a Husky). He's stated many times that, although policing is broken, the country has gone too far with the anti-police rhetoric. He's stated many times that, although the #metoo movement is important and should be taken seriously, it's also gone too far. One his most frequent things is pointing out the hypocrisy of "supporting" fundamentalist Islam's abuse of women while cancelling Louis CK's or Al Franken's careers.

Mostly, though, he rolls his eyes at crazy, over the top PC bullshit and modern wokeness. Calling out harmful political correctness has been His Thing since he was just a touring comic. He's old, smug, has made anti-PC his defining character trait, is all about "winners win" and wants his team to start cheating like the other guys in order to win at all cost. In other words: Which one of you fucks is Bill Maher?

One of my kids got the full-meal-SJW-deal in HS and college. Then she spent the summer in a poor country on another continent where everyone there, including the doctors and teachers, had the same singular goal in life: To come to the United States.

Not Europe. Not Asia. Not even Canada.

The United Fucking States.

We aren't just a silly people. We are a stupid, gullible people taking for granted everything the rest of the world would die for.
