Everyone Loves Bill Burr Telling Bill Maher He Is Full of Sh*t
“I’ll never tire of these clips,” one TV writer said of Burr dunking on Maher. It seems a lot of comedians and writers agree.
I'm not any kind of Bill Burr super fan, but his complete unwillingness to go along with Maher's bloated psuedo-intellectual posturing was hilarious and cathartic.
Maher drinks so much so he doesn't have to face the fact that he's a fucking idiot.
My opinion of Maher was already low before Israel's carpet bombing of Gaza began this time around, but now I just think he's an all-round disgusting human being. And I rarely use those words to describe anybody.
Maher personifies that kind of centrist-liberal, 'both-siding', self-important, insufferable arrogance that permeates establishment talking heads and politicians. For example, take Hillary's recent interview on Morning Joe. You could basically transplant every talking points to Maher, or vice versus, and you wouldn't be able to tell the distinguish whose was making which point. Its the MSNBC, CNN, Fox News, NPR monolith of perspective, which might vary in extremity, but never varies in vector or how it frames issues. Its 0 coverage of the 2003 protests against the Iraq war. Its the stone wall of support for Israel. Its 20 minutes of Trumps empty podium.
People have never liked it. The monochrome diversity of view points we've seen on cable network news on Gaza for someone like Biden, or Hillary, or Maher is a feature, not a bug. In-terms of a media diet, boomers who were raised on a thin gruel of 3 network news channels representing a 'diversity' of view points, can't handle having their perspective challenged.
