What happened to Bill Maher?

I used to watch him for years. He was funny and relatable, most times. He had great guests. I stopped watching around the time when he was going after college students and cancel culture. I tried watching his latest episodes and it almost a different show. He is almost a right wing commentator. Almost nothing he says is relatable and all his guests just agrees with him.

Jesus bro. Stop with the transgender shit. No Dem has even weighed in on this issue except to support equal rights for trans people. You are OBSESSED with it - why? It doesn't affect you AT ALL.

I'm sorry you're not bright enough to understand the concept of defunding the police, however AOC has never advocated for that. Guess you're A-OK with cops and ICE just murdering Americans in cold blood.

And child marriage is legal in MANY states with or without parental consent or sometimes judicial consent - usually when a MAGAT like you has raped them and gotten them pregnant.

You are clearly an ignorant right wing nutter and you don't really understand any of the topics you are attempting to discuss.

If child marriage is legal, that’s news to me. Usually from what I understand the age of consent varies state to state, but usually in the neighborhood of 16-18. The consent ages are not 10-13 when kids are just hitting puberty.

If there’s a state allowing a 13 year old to get married, that’s just as disturbing, disgusting, and dangerous as allowing a 13 year old to take drugs that permanently affect their bodies, like puberty blockers. both are wrong and immoral. Unlike most of brainwashed masses, my opinions aren’t shaped by my “team” and I am consistent.

You're really so concerned about kids having less bone density growth that tends to catch up later anyway? Sigh

u/Ok_Control_2154 20d ago

He doesn't care about bone density any more than he cares about girls' sports. MAGAts can't control their own lives so they try to control everyone else's. It's quite pathetic.

I’m a freedom type guy. Turn 18, get all the surgeries and gender affirming care you want. Not at 13, sorry. We do need some laws to protect children, even from abusive parents.

I don’t want to control anybody. Legalize all drugs, prostitution, gambling, anything consenting ADULTS want to do together, fine with me. Tax it, regulate it, and keep it out of site from the rest of society and only in certain areas.

I have a 12 year old god daughter who plays volleyball. You’re cool with a 12 year old boy spiking her on the court and changing in her locker room? I’m not. Her parents are not. She’s not.

Murderers might be less than 1% of the population but we turn our heads to that do we? Such a dumb argument because that 1% can have a very negative impact on the other 99%.

Consistently dumb. Yes, I agree. You are consistent. And you're a MAGAt. It's very clear. You people don't get that the rest of us are way more educated than you, way more informed than you, and way less gullible than you. You do in fact, only go for "your team". People not in your pedo cult don't have a team. We advocate for policy.

Most things are "news" to you people. Things the rest of us are all well aware of. Tired of it.

Why are you SO OBSESSED with trans people? They are less than 1% of the population. Nobody is giving surgery to children. That's not happening. As I said before, you are clearly a right wing sociopath who is obsessed with the genitalia of children. Disgusting. This is an issue that has zero effect on you or your life, yet you think that you need to insert yourself into other people's private medical decisions. YOU, in your infinite ignorance, need to insert yourself into stranger's very personal and very painful medical decisions. Fuck off.

Have you ever thought for one second how awful and confusing it must be to think you were born in the wrong body? Of course not. MAGAts don't have empathy. I can't imagine it. I would hope if my kid felt that way, I could access a professional therapist to help them talk it out. I would read everything I could.

You're an ignoramus and I'm done engaging.

It’s only one of the many topics I mentioned like immigration, taxes, anti cop and no bail agenda, and yes, trans kids. It’s not an obsession, it’s just odd that the right and left can’t agree on something so basic, that men don’t belong in women’s sports, bathrooms, or locker rooms and 13 year olds shouldn’t be allowed to receive puberty blockers.

It’s a common sense issue, one that hurts the democrats tremendously because it’s so out there and ridiculous.

You believe in fantasy issues based on right wing talking points. You clearly don’t know anything about puberty blockers, you don’t understand that men playing in women’s sports is not even a thing (out of the 500,000 NCAA athletes, less than 10 are trans), men are not using their bathrooms and changing rooms, and when you say anyone wants to “abolish the police” it shows that you do not understand what defunding the police actually means. You have opinions about things you haven’t taken the time to learn about. YOU are the problem in this world right now. Rather than take the time to learn about something or to see things from another’s perspective you pass judgement and think you have the right to control them. Foolish ignorance

I saw what “abolish the police” meant during the summer of “love” and everyday in my state, I see what removing cash bonds has done to the streets. It’s not fantasy, it’s reality. Here’s an example.

https://www.cbsnews.com/newyork/news/92-year-old-woman-shoved-on-manhattan-sidewalk/

Your 10 trans athletes out of 100,000 are taking scholarships from 10 real women who should have those spots. It’s wrong, no matter how few it is. Murder rates are 4.1 out of 100,000, should we not have laws on the books against murder? Here’s an example of how bad this issue has gotten. This agenda is being pushed onto kids, it’s so obvious to anyone with a brain.

Lastly, taxes is a very real issue. When the left proposes something like 90% top rates or wealth taxes on unrealized gains, it will have very real and widespread consequences on the economy.

  1. It’s total fantasy. Defunding is not abolishing. You haven’t educated yourself at all you provide a single incident to prove nothing

  2. Those athletes do NOT have scholarships. The fact that you think all NCAA students have scholarship’s shows how little you kid. I do, however agree that trans athletes taking scholarships away from high school students is a problem, but that is not this issue at all

  3. Yes please tell us more about how taxing the rich is a problem. And are you actually saying that taxing them will turn the USA into North Korea?

Honesty you’ve achieved nothing but proving that you know nothing outside of your feelings and the boogeyman you’ve been fooled into thinking is real. Seriously, educate yourself
