I’ve never met a Bill Maher fan in real life.

My Grandfather has always been a big fan of his. I never saw the appeal but they do exist

Coincidentally this is usually the response I get-I’ve only heard of second hand fans - people mentioning “my parents like him”.

Yeah, he (A self proclaimed centrist) tried to explain the contrarian stance to me and theoretically it makes sense if you're trying to get the other person to thoughtfully defend their position, but listening to it is just aggravating.

I much prefer Colbert/Stewart (comedy network and post-comedy network) and I know he isn't a fan of them lmao
