What is /pol/'s opinion of Bill Maher?
I can't quite get a read on him. He seems at first like a textbook leftist but then he'll unexpectedly rip into liberal ideas.
Is he a centrist or is he just in some uncommon corner of the left?
>>71387692
Maybe people can be something else besides one or the other?
Liked him on Politically Incorrect before ABC cancelled him
Then he moved to HBO and became a smug Socialist that occasionally shits on SJWs and Muslims but other times just insufferable
>Until his early teens, he was unaware that his mother, whose family was from Hungary,[10] was (((Jewish))).
>>71387764
Everyone can be described
I'm just unsure where he stands
>>71387692
he's a centrist anyone with common sense knows that, he rips both liberals and non liberals apart and that's what a centrist does
>>71387692
He's an atheist who will attack Muslims and a degenerate whore fucker so he shits on the SJWs. He's scum.
>>71387903
Maybe he's not one or the other but in between? Seems like people can be more than just one out of two things when it comes to any sort of ideology or belief.
I could be wrong. There may only exist liberals and conservatives and nothing else.
What do we do about it when someone doesn't think something that is liberal or conservative? How do you cope with that?
>>71387692
petty guy who thinks his logic is infallible.
>>71387952
Maher is more intelligent than any.manlet neo nazi trumpfag on this board. I've actually met him.and got an autographed copy of his book "The New New Rules" it was hilarious as well as enlightening He's awesome
He is an anti-religious liberal.
Keep in mind that SJW use the same tactics of religious extremists so they automatically trigger Bill.
He is a degenerate atheist, but he's really funny. When he rips into liberals it's amazing.

>anti-religious
You say that like it's a bad thing lol.
>>71387692
He just likes feeling superior to everyone, including other liberals
more importantly he's a comedian who's not funny, so he should be sent to a labour camp
>>71387692
He's a jew
>>71388045
You've severely misunderstood everything I've said
At no point did I say that someone has to be a conservative or a liberal. I said that I was unsure what his political beliefs are. Usually you can get a feel for someone and predict their opinions on various subjects fairly quickly, and I've been unable to.
He's a non-PC liberal. I think a lot of Americans fall into this camp but are hesitant to vote for Democrats because all of the BLM, transgender PC bull shit. But then again, retardicans believe in fairy tales too, such as Jesus and global warming denial. So I guess the question is: which is the lesser of two evils? I agree with Maher, it's the democrats.
>>71387692
>I can't quite get a read on him.
He is a Jew. He hates religion and uses this to ridicule and badmouth Christians just like the Jews have always done.
He is very happy about Europe's destruction since they have not been nice to the Jewish state of Israel.

>>71387692
He's a jew, you can never trust him. He's spreading hedonism and hate for religion, which is a tool to keep jews in line. I mena regardless of whether religion is true or not, it was effective at keeping jews at bay.
>>71387692
he's a conservashit republishit plant
>>71387692
He's a fuckmouth. Next question.
>>71387692
Lifelong Democrat. Claims to be a libertarian. He's seems to be an old school liberal, not the insane kind of today. His comedy is hit-or-miss, when it's good it's great and when it's not so good it's cringeworthy. He's also anti-theist and shits on Islam and Christianity every once in awhile.
He's against Trump and destroyed him in the birther scandal in 2012 or so, so I fully expect /pol/ to chimpout in this thread.
>>71388516
I'm a non-PC liberal. That being said, I don't think transgender existence is PC. It's well supported by empirical evidence that trannies have concrete reasons for feeling that way.
PC =/= treating people with dignity.
PC = philosophical authoritarianism.
We call these people Regressive Leftists.
>>71388678
Does he ever shit on Judaism?
>>71387692
He is a liberal he is just redpilled on Islam and SJWs
>>71387692
Used to love him. Now I fucking hate him. An empty shell zio phony. Muh Muslims are bullshit. Has this man ever said the word jew and in a truthful way to tell the truth? Fuck no. Don't ever speak of him again
>>71388767
Yes, but so do most American secular jews. Secular jews are more dangerous imo, because they are more difficult to spot.
>>71387692
>trusting a kike
When will you guys ever learn?
>>71388845
You're running out of width in the hairs you're splitting. He has never done any such thing and there is ZERO light between the two things with which you are making false distinctions. God damn Hasbaras ruined the net and the entire species and universe
He's mostly (like 9/10ths) modern day progressive/social liberal. Your textbook leftist. All nonsense and hate, all of the time.
But he's also part classical liberal. Someone that still vaguely believes in freedom and rights. I actually feel a little sad for these dinosaurs. Their particular blend of liberalism is obsolete, but they still feel they're "winning" when another crony capitalist statist like Obama wins elections.
If a little troll like Maher had a scrap of self-reflection his head would explode. Every now and then he sees other "liberals" being hypocritical or anti-liberty and it bothers him. If he ever looks in a political mirror he's either going to lose that 1/10th and become a full fledged lefty, or he'll have a nervous breakdown and kill himself.
>>71388745
bump dude. Physical illness that can be treated, and should be treated with respect, if they are respectful.
>>71388132
Go to bed Bill
>>71388968
>classical liberal
>shits on a religion
>he could say zio to keep it political rather than doing the same against heebs
But he doesn't. Muh God damn shekels. Fuck America. Feed me shekels
>>71387692
He's a traditional liberal who thinks SJWs will only drive people to the right. It's similar to paleo-conservatives who denounce 1488 types only because they're afraid of them turning off the public to anything considered right-wing.
I'm sure Maher genuinely dislikes radical feminists and Islam apologists, but he's more concerned about the left becoming "too extreme" and thus less palatable to the public at large.
Also, he's a fucking hypocrite. "Hey guyz, religion is BAD, but we need to support the religiously based nation of Israel!" Get fucked, jewboy.
>>71387692
He just not an idealog. He strikes me as not being confined to one sole political party or philosophy.
When I was younger I like Maher, now...he has a punchable face.

Stereotypical Jew
>mocker
>Israel firster
>while still a liberal atheist
>claims he is a libertarian but often has disagreeing views
Also how did he even get a show where he can spout his opinions 24/7, he isn't eloquent, charismatic, or even informed at times.
Oh right. Juden.
>>71388990
Agreed. Being a liberal I've met a lot of trannies. Yes, I have met annoying SJW-tumblrinas that are annoying as fuck and I want to destroy with a hammer. But that's just SJW people in general.
The vast majority of transpeople I have met are quiet about their condition, just try to blend in, and live their life.
But you know how /pol/ is. They are so against the authoritarianism of SJW but 100% for moral authoritarianism and controlling others.
>>71387692
He's a Jew.
>>71388132
Maher ain't shit. He's a pseudo-intellectual kike doing what kikes do: agitating dumb goyim against the enemies of Jewry and promoting social degeneracy.
Tough Crowd was so much better.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VgcnmnJJm88
That this show has never been released on DVD is criminal.
>>71389051
Yeah, that's as daring as the manlet is ever going to get.
Christianity
>Fair game for literally everyone to make fun of
Islam
>Only "brave" leftists like Maher will criticize it
Judaism
>Now and forever, crickets
>>71387811

anyone who thinks this is a fucking moron
>>71387692
>Trump just wants to make the rich richer and raise taxes on the poor
>tax plan comes out
>eh it doesn't matter, what really matters are wages are too low... help us government!
>>71388944
I haven't watched all of Maher's shit but I'm guessing he might make a few Oy vey jokes here or there but never /pol/ style jokes.
If you want an example of what Maher finds un-PC, he went as Halloween as Steve Irwin with a stingray barb coming out of his chest. He's a fag, but he has some good jokes.
>>71387692
Jew... Nuff said.
>>71390198
Pic related. Bill Maher even takes pride that he didn't apologize to people making a fuss about the costume. You know, all 2 people. Fuck this jew.
>>71390198
>>71390308
FUCK.
>>71390398
He looks like he does a lot of booger sugar.
>>71387692
He's an anti-vaxxer who bring quacks onto his show to peddle their snake oil while simultaneously shouting about how Marijuana is magic and that he's an ubermensch that doesn't get sick ever
Vaccines work and THC is a mild hallucinogen that can exacerbate psychotic symptoms
I agree with his stance on Islam and that's basically it, he embodies all the most venomous aspects of both Democrats and Republicans, panders to his audience and then whines and acts persecuted
That shit where he was begging Obama to come on his show while at the same time bringing a retard quack that injected himself with Charlie Sheen's HIV blood and lied about curing some shitty island was absurd
He lacks any and all self awareness. He's a belligerent atheist but falls for alternative medicine, homeopathy, etc snake oil.
Genuine skepticism isn't something you cherry pick when applying it; I think he's just atheist because he was bullied by fundies as a kid or something since he never fucking critically thinks about anything else ever
The show itself can be somewhat entertaining but Maher himself is a fuckhead
>>71387692
Pros:
>Hates Islam
>Calls out Refugees for their shit
>Calls out SJWs
Cons:
>Climate Change alarmist
>Sanders supporter
>Loves big government and higher taxes
>>71390398
>>71390308
What an ass. He should've gotten massive blowout from that, but I don't think anyone really knows about it or even gives a fuck about him.
>>71387692
Another liberal comedian who thinks that he is an authority on politics and everything in the world because he says so
