Spot on. I am not really a Maher fan, but he nailed it here.

Beat me to it Shanks…was getting ready to post this up as well.

Validates Governor DeSantis’ war with Disney. Walt…rolling over in his grave.

Maher highlights a sad state of affairs in the world today…with Biden’s DOE throwing gasoline on the fire with rewriting the title IX regs.

So, what if those of us who are not far-right agree with Maher most of the time - that he says stuff that needs to be said and needs to be fixed?

Are we going to believe a monster like Trump can fix it?

More likely than Biden.

It's not a POTUS thing to fix. Claiming he alone can fix it enters monster turf.

This is a problem which we have the tools to fix already.

Trump presents a problem by which obviously the system can be beat.

I'm not so sure that a lying, cheating, philandering, fraud that tried to steal the 2020 election is the answer to the Countries problems. Trump was a failure his last term in office, I would not expect a different outcome were he to win another term.

This problem, explained by Maher, is something that the Left leaning and the Right can agree it just ain't right.

I don't believe it's an ideological or tolerance or acceptance thing per the Left, but the Right uses its existence as affirmation in the culture war.

Can you summarize the issue in one sentence? Not sure I care to watch the video.

Per the explanation under the video:

The explosive documentary about the toxic and abusive environment inside '90s kids' TV didn’t just expose a dangerous workplace, it also exposed Hollywood hypocrisy.

But, nobody can explain it like Maher. I think the youtube video is safe to open and watch.

I haven't seen any black helicopters buzzing around lately.

I simply have a preference for reading the written version versus the video version.

Trump was a failure his last term in office,

He never failed me. Life was good until COVID and that had nothing to do with Trump.

He saved the SCOTUS, shutdown illegal migrant flow over my country — I was grateful.

He failed me post election and Jan 6.

Along w every American.

Oh sure he did. Trump had four years to finish Afghanistan and didn't. Today the Taliban rules Afghanistan just like it did in 2001 and it's Trump's failing. Yes it is also "W"'s and Obama's and Bidens failure, but Trump owns his four years of guilt.

The Taliban is back on the throne triumphant having defeated the Infidels. How do you think that plays in your average Pakistani high school among the dissatisfied boys? I gather that a rebel wing of the Taliban was responsible for that terrorist attack in Russia recently. Given Trumps failure to beat Biden and allowing Biden to swing the border gates wide open what do the Taliban have in store for us?

Oh, you bet Trump failed you and bigly.

I will happily give him a second chance over what we have today.

I am sure Trump would have handled the exit from Afghanistan better than Biden. My opinion only…no need to argue.

No of course not and we never do.

Really, you are supporting Trump after he said he'd fuck his daughter and you post that crap?

Bill Maher is the perfect example of Churchill's old saying that if you are 20 and a conservative, you are heartless, but if you are 40 and liberal, you are an idiot.

I used to hate the stuff he said, but now what he says makes a whole lot of sense.

So you are finally seeing that moderates on either side of the aisle make a whole lot of sense? It is about time. Bill Maher is not a conservative, not by any stretch of the imagination, he is generally considered to be center-left.

Maher calls himself a Progressive.

Actually that clip was on TV via CNN about an hour ago. Don't know if it was a repeat of a previous show.
