But yes, lately, he seems to feel the left has gone completely off the deep end and they no longer believe in the core values that they once held. For example, like most comedians, free speech is a big issue for him. And that used to be a big issue for liberals. But in more recent years it is the left who is always trying to suppress speech, and it is the conservatives who have taken up the cause. The suppression of the laptop story is one example.

Hell, comedians like Bill have been on stage offending people for eons, but now they have to worry about offended leftists getting up on stage and assaulting them. The new leftists believe that "words are violence", or so they say.
He’s not only concerned about speech, but also cancel culture. He’s a big supporter of Israel and doesn’t like the pro-Palestinian members of The Squad. He’s also concerned that the Democratic Party is no longer the working man and woman’s party, but is one led by intellectual elites, out of touch with the problems of middle-class America.

So when you see a poster on here make that same BS argument, you know that they are a sheep.
It is hard to tell the difference in 2022 between the New York Times &, from the past, the National Enquirer.

Both should be in libraries in the Fiction section.

His issues with Muslims goes far deeper than just Israel though. He calls liberals hypocritical for embracing people who throw gay people off of rooftops and stoning women to death for the crime of “allowing” themselves to be raped.

I can absolutely believe that a crack head would leave a laptop full of kiddie porn and accounts of all their illegals dealings at a computer repair shop.
It's also what people do when they have parents who spend a lifetime cleaning up after them. Hunter has never had to answer for his actions, knowing the Big Guy will clean up his messes. And that the Big Guy will pave the way into any money making venture that Hunter wants to dabble in. And that the Big Guy will allow him to serve in the military, years over age, and despite being a known drug addict.

It's what enablers do for their kids.

The argument is that it's Hunter that did the stuff and not his dad completely ignoring the fact that the reason he got the money was because to buy influence. They are not seeing it because they don't want to see it.

Ironically, which countries' foreign policies are front and center NOW? Yep. The countries they took money from: China, Russia, Ukraine. A 5 year old could see the obvious.

They're not all that intellectual. You can be intelligent and still be brainwashed in a negative fashion that is harmful to humanity and that's a segment of these people. Believe it or not cradle to grave welfare is harmful to a species that was raised on the laws of nature, as is the concept of equity and racial quotas. Don't get me started with the gender nonsense and CRT and the immigrant shuffling.

As for a woman dabbling in witchcraft that's just one that likes the dominant males and is kinky in the bedroom, that's all that is. She uses the witchcraft as something interesting to spice up her sex life...female nature 101. Maher points out some flaws with the Republicans....this obsession with heartbeat and down syndrome abortion laws and their outdated position on marijuana...plus human nature itself basically....they are corrupt because we don't have campaign finance laws or term limits. Some of his criticisms are reaching through. In any case I can take a joke. I respect this guy more than most politicians. He's exposing human nature and the irrationality of our species more than anything.

People literally make stuff up.

He seems to be libertarian, but I would never claim to know how he votes - probably not along party lines like a lemming might.
Mostly because he's says he's a leftist.

I never heard this guys show/s, I dont have cable tv, but kudos if he's really calling both sides out...how novel an idea.
For years he only called out the right but the modern left has gone so far off the rails that he just can't hold his tongue any longer.
