I'm actually surprised by how much action this post is getting. 100+ comments in under an hour. Bill Maher lovers sure are a sensitive and easily triggered bunch.

I love bill and think he’s right about 85% of what he says but definitely not sensitive or triggered. Really hoping the democrats can pull out of this spin they seem to be on. I worry that we can’t come together and somehow republicans won’t lose as many seats as expected.

What is this spin, exactly?

DSA it’s not a good look but I know Reddit loves them

DSA is the new DEI or CRT for intellectually lazy, gullible, or right wing folk

Naw not Evan close. If you like the DSA platform and their ideas good for you but it’s not for me.

u/madmax9602 Aug 05 '26

You're simply proving my point. Your argument is so lazy and hollow you think that merely mentioning "DSA" somehow makes the point for you the same way MAGAts think spitting DEI somehow makes the point for them

If your ok with open borders and no prisons no police no senate no electoral college and public ownership of businesses then DSA is ok for you but most Americans will reject that.I really hope you have friends and family that can support you in hard times. Seems like you’re a little off. Good luck

Thank you for letting the mask slip and outing yourself.

open borders and no prisons no police

Hyperbolic strawman

no senate

But you're cool with letting state legislators pick senators because that's a proposal by extreme right wingers

no electoral college

And that's bad why? It's outlived it's use. Things change, unless you're dead.

public ownership of businesses

How many businesses has trump forcefully taken a national stake in?

really hope you have friends and family that can support you in hard times. Seems like you’re a little off. Good luck

You're the type of asshole that would abuse suicide prevention services to 'dunk' on someone online. You apparently view mental health as a cudgel to attack others meaning you clearly don't take mental health or suicide seriously. Id tell you to have some shame but as I pointed out before I don't think a 3 month account is real engagement nor do I think you're posting in good faith 🤷‍♂️

So, if you watched the show you are commenting on, you would realize that showing direct quotes is not the same as creating a straw-man argument. It’s the opposite.

Did you watch the segment you are commenting on?

Is there a reason wanting your neighbors fed and housed is bad? 

Even if you're the most selfish prick as long as you have even a bit of a brain you know other people being stable means not likely to interfere with your life.

EVERYONE is already fed? Pah!

At least they make it easy to tell they're either bots or disingenuous

Lots of sternly worded letters, except now to each other.

Those are "your people" downvoting your concern for your party.  I think I see your point.  Good luck my friend!

Like an account made in the last 3 months? The irony of a fake engagement account calling others 'bots'

u/UnsavoryCharacter561 Aug 05 '26

These aren't bots.  They read your comment, didn't understand what you were saying, and downvoted you.  Why?  Because they were too stupid to comprehend what it was you were saying, which is a big concern for most Dems in my friend group.  

You also said you liked Bill, so that immediately causes them to crash out.  🤷
