Bill Maher doesn’t seem to be a fan of Larry David’s satire of Maher’s dinner with Trump.

I thought Larry’s satire was very good. What do you think?

    It’s been fascinating watching Bill Maher’s brain atrophy over the last 15 or so years.

    He’s living proof as to why there should be ANNUAL DRIVING TESTS required past the age of 60 to keep your driver’s license.

    He’s always been a narcissistic asshole, but he used to have a few decent insights. I stopped entertaining him when he started his tirade about Islam specifically being the problem. He used to know religion in general was just a vector of control by people with more material aspirations, but conveniently forgot because he wanted to start old man raging which requires cutting power to your logic and reason.

      The problem with Maher isn’t that he’s changed. It’s that he hasn’t. Maybe he was a progressive in 1976. But he hasn’t progressed since then.

      What was his show in the 90s? Politically Incorrect. Remember that ‘politically correct’ is what they used to call woke.

      And all that stuff about Islamophobia and Western Chauvinism is just another trend among the reactionary intellectuals. Bill has always been an op.
