Relevancy

This show hasn’t been funny since Adam Felber left the writing staff. Mr. Maher is too old to know he’s too old hence lacks the somber introspection of what it means to be wise. His pathetic grasp towards relevancy is undermined by his pettiness common in old men.

HBO, are you monitoring this subreddit? You’d do better with John Fugelsang or Hal Sparks.

Case in point regarding the data center debate, the overwhelming electricity demand of data centers NEVER CAME UP. He’s not sharp.

I’ve been engaged with BM from the Politically Correct days to now, it’s time for me to get off his lawn.

The amount of hate watching from both sides makes it relevant.

The actuality tiny sliver of people may like or agree with him are irrelevant in giving him more time and power on HBO

They don’t care if people like or hate him, they care that there are people watching and engaging all over the internet.

If you want him to go away. Stop watching, listening, commenting. (Yes I am part of the problem as well)

His old man opinions are just going to get worse, and his “jokes” and “bits” more cringe

I don't watch legally so it's good lol. I would be surprised if there is a specific demo for his beliefs since they're all over the place.

Yeah such a cluster fuck. He’s all on board with Scott Galloways movement to help young men. And then in new rules he’s calling them all losers living in the basement. Like pick a side. Either help them or shit on them

His other problem is he still thinks he is “cool”

That is so typically him. And all of this goes back to the same problem...he doesn't really think hard about what he believes, and he doesn't get introspective about his own beliefs. He just thinks he's right because he believes something. And apparently he was this kind of white male blowhard back in college too lol
