Oh fuck, thanks for sharing. I never knew that about him. I mostly remember watching when he was raising money for the Obama campaign and generally criticized Republican fuckery.

But now it seems like he’s reverting to an earlier version of himself that I wasn’t around for.

Let me rephrase - he was always on the “cancel culture” bandwagon, and I give him a pass for the early parts of it due to the cancellation of his other show after his 9/11 remarks.

The problem I had was when people like Rogan really got on board, and it became the new buzzword/cultural explosion, and Maher went all in, discussing it incessantly like it was the worst possible crisis to ever happen in the history of anything. Meanwhile, Trump was doing all kinds of, well, Trump shit that had real impacts on a global scale, and Bill is whining about whoever the current asshole of the week was who said something stupid and had to face consequences for it. Every fucking week, a rant about that same topic. Then the anti-vax shit and how Covid wasn’t really that bad, you just have to eat like him and not be overweight or whatever and you’ll be fine!

Now he’s giving a platform to people like Elon and going full IDW…or whatever that’s morphed into these days.

Oh wow i've been missing out
