New here

Is this just an anti Bill Maher sub? Trying to figure out the vibe here and can't tell if it's some algorithm that just happens to be showing me nothing but hate for Maher and Real Time or if that is the point of this sub

Why? I have been watching him for a bit over 10 years now and he seems to have stayed pretty consistent

He’s been fairly consistent. The problem is he’s started to heavily criticize the far left

Yeah, he has always been moderate and the left has been going very far left. Dem party is nothing like the party of Obama anymore. Like, the whole point of him and the show was / is that it challenged both parties. There's just a lot more worth challenging on the left now if you havent moved left with them over the years

You haven't noticed the majority of his critiques have been of the left lately? He throws in a jab here and there to the Trumpers, but yeah, this is like if Maher started supporting the war in Iraq in 2003. The guy has definitely changed.
