“They’re asking for a lot of things that are, like, kooky.” That’s Bill Maher’s take on the current state of the Writers Guild strike after his opinions were voiced on the latest …
Rich coming from a guy who owes his entire career to writers. I hate this smug piece of shit
God I saw this clip of him interviewing Marianne Williamson, he was complaining about “elite Ivy League schools” (never mind he went to Cornell) and how they’re brainwashing school children these days. Marianne pushed back that kids aren’t being taught by Ivy League professors, and his response was “yeah well those professors are training the teachers.” Motherfucker thinks every public school teacher went to an Ivy League.
He also bemoaned that modern universities don’t allow for independent thinking and non-conformity, then in the next breath complained about students talking back to their professors. Like, which is it asshole, are students pressed into conformity or are they too free in questioning authority?
Maher said, "We have been the cowards. Lobbing cruise missiles from 2,000 miles away. That's cowardly. Staying in the airplane when it hits the building. Say what you want about it. Not cowardly. You're right."
Only correct thing he's ever said, and of course he was cancelled for that.
Well the strike is making it clear that nobody is owed cheap writing either, Billy. Also, if the comparaively tiny A24 can afford their demands without issue or resistance, there is no excuse for companies like WB, netflix, and the like.
You know, there are a lot of people deserving of hate. Nazis. Transphobes. Politicians. They all probably deserve it more and I do hate them, but the heart wants what the heart wants and my heart really really hates this unrepentant shitstain of a human being who never had a correct opinion in his life and yet persists in being the most smug-ass motherfucker to ever exist more then any other human being on this planet.
Of course his opinion on strikes is garbage. There was never any doubt. I hope he starts glitching out, McConnell style and shits his pants while live on TV on every single show he records, but they keep dragging him out to do more shows until he is 125 years old and sees everything he ever held dear die.
Maher having the coldest takes possible again, and he wonders why the Left he claims to be apart of hates him so much.
Remember when he interviewed Milo Yiannaopolis and then took credit for this getting him deplatformed (When really Milo was just outed as a pedo, which is how most people seem to lose their following these days)
Edit: Changed the wording I used because someone took this post out of context to get into a weird argument.
I remember when I was living with my dad after I flunked out of college. For awhile he limited my internet time, so I entertained myself with cable on demand services, and my dad had HBO. So one of the shows I watched was Real Time. I usually only got mad at him when he went on antithiest rants, because I was just a vanilla liberal at the time.
My dad is mostly apolitical (he doesnt vote because he wants to avoid jury duty, lol) but his opinions lean conservative when he does have them. So I was surprised when he said he actually liked Bill Mahr when I mentioned he, because he's "not afraid to tell it like it is" or whatever. Like I said, at the time I was surprised, how can my mostly conservative dad like this liberal?
New Rule: if you're one of the woke writer's Guild elites who rejected my pitch for Breaking Bad 2: Full Measure Consequences, Tagline: "you've seen him Break bad, now he's Breaking Evil", instead of whining that netflix isn't giving money you don't deserve, open up your fancy ivy league dictionary, and look up the definition of the word "Irony".
If communism happens and we end up having some kind of “The Running Man” style tv show where chuds and former billionaires have to fight death matches in an underground labyrinth, we should totallh throw Bill Maher’s ass in there.
Hoping one of his writer pulls a Joker on him during a broadcast. I don't even know anything about this guy other than every time I see him mentioned, he has that annoying smirk as if he said something very clever, but it's just no different than the 5000 washed up anti woke stand up comedians on youtube
It couldn't matter less if the demands are polkadot dumbass fuckshit bastard shit fuck. You need them and they don't need you. Nobody needs you as a capital owner. They shouldn't even be asking you; you should be in a gulag somewhere smoking weed with your cool re-education teacher learning what's really important in this life
Maher is the embodiment of Facebook-tier complaining. He is the Timeline Zeitgeist. He could contradict himself in a single sentence, but sliced up and memed he'll spread all throughout your feed history be damned. It doesn't go anywhere or do anything, but people keep up with it week after week. Accordingly, I could write his jokes before he does by subscribing to several Facebook Mom groups.
Bob Iger and David Zaslav, on the other hand, are perfectly entitled to the dozens of millions they make every year, they just work 1000x as hard as all the writers
New rule: when a piece of shit says something shitty, theres no need to write an article about it. Anyone who would actually find something wrong with this numbskull's smug shitty opinions already knows his opinions are smug and shitty.
I used to watch him with my in laws. He's great to watch because you can see the CHUD'S talking points and unearned arrogance being handed to them in real time
