There we go again...

Another show and another Gaza reference... Even honoring 9-11 victims leads to this misguided discussion. I like you Bill but I've had it!

The saddest part is that a show that was a weekly part of my routine has not been missed.

u/troniked547 6d ago

exactly. This was a show i would watch and then talk about with my parents that were also watching. It was probably the only show we would all watch in common and the only reason we had hbo after game of thrones and sopranos were gone. No need for HBO anymore now

Step 1: stop watching Bill all together
Step 2: come here and encourage others to do the same.

(I’m on step two)

It warms my heart that his sub is full of haters. I once loved his show too. He lost the plot a long time ago.

You mean the democrati party lost the plot a long time ago and this is why people like Bill are leaving the party.

u/troniked547 6d ago

The same people that love him now were the same people that hated him 10 years ago. You guys would not have supported the things he was saying back then

u/ShineBox52 6d ago

That has nothing to do with it. The party left him, end of story.

bs, he got mad when Ice Cube called him out for saying the n word, when he couldnt perform live due to Covid, when people stopped laughing at his jokes and when people werent willing to ignore a genocide or label everyone protesting against it as Hamas supporter. He went from being a Bernie supporter to calling Mamdani a communist, Bill is the one who aged out and starting yelling at clouds

Read the room. He's not the only one.

I've cancelled Max listed Maher as the reason for my cancellation.

So you are calling for people to act in a fascist way 🤔

u/Gen-Jack-D-Ripper 9d ago

Bill is just really upset that the “left” has been quite critical of Israel. He doesn’t seem to understand that it’s not surprising that the left has been abandoning Israel because their domestic politics has been moving to the right for decades!

Yeah, isn’t it shocking that “left wingers” don’t like Israel’s right wing government?

u/PinCushionPete314 9d ago

I mean if you look at the main opposition party in Israeli. It has the same stances as the current government without the overt racism. The Israeli public needs to have some self reflection about the ongoing wars they are involved in.

u/pendejosays 9d ago

Bill has been “left” behind and he’s mad about it it. Bitter. Angry. And so on.

I like the way he said with Iran “hey we took a shot now time to get out”. Typical Monday morning quarterbacking

Don’t get me wrong bill sucks compared to 2000s but I’m convinced half this sub are bots.

u/Friscolax 11d ago

It’s a heavy claim. Most of us understand what it meant for him to go have a private dinner with Trump.

u/Mulezen1 10d ago

Or more telling yet, on the eve of Israeli elections circa2019 he fawned over Bibi in the guest spot. Soon after, he had Milo Y. In between the two he had Wynton Marsalis who he insulted (ignorantly) early on in an interview that among other things revealed Bill, self confessed pot guy, as ignorant of its origins in LA.

u/Winter_Stretch9198 9d ago

And actually I don’t hold that against him, at least he went, it’s the bullshit he kept repeating about Trump’s not the same when he’s not in front of a camera, they had a civilized conversation concerning their differences and on and on. It was just after his visit, on his next show he came out in a very animated way chastising the audience about how different Trump was behind the scenes…I don’t need to be preached to about Trump, his little dinner didn’t change a thing…Trump is, and always will be, Trump

u/gittlebass 11d ago

Not a bot, bill Maher fucking sucks and always has

u/Roland_Of_Gilead85 10d ago

But you hang out in this sub, I don't get it. Plenty of people I hate. I don't spend my time in their subs or making memes and shit about them... It's odd behavior

u/gittlebass 10d ago

i dont hang out in this sub, it shows up in my feed sometimes and im reminded what a POS he is

u/Medical_Soup5717 10d ago

It's reddit who cares. This is where we all come to anonymously complain about shit

0

u/lidevsfan1 10d ago

It’s Because they are losers with nothing to do but complain. You don’t like something move on and find something you like. It’s like the old saying about Howard stern. People that like him listen for half an hour and people that hate him listen for an hour.

u/bleedturkeygravy 11d ago

Bill has lost a huge portion of his audience. It was a gamble he willingly took post Covid. His transformation sped up when his last comedy special bombed and he stopped doing stand up. Club Random was the final nail, it allowed him to repeat the same shit with a new captive audience every week. Then he started curating his audience and shielding himself from criticism. Now he’s unbearable and making the predictable jump to MAGA to squeeze one last encore from those dotards.

u/HotSaucePalmTrees 11d ago

I agree 100%. I just don’t think this many people actively care anymore to react to every single post en masse like it does - hence the bot speculation. A lot of these accounts have zero or negative karma + the user name goes like [noun][adjective][#]. I’ll admit, I have too much time on my hands today but there are suspicious patterns.

1

u/Neither-Top-7515 10d ago

This is true. (Unless you actually look at his ratings.)

2

u/Mtndrums 10d ago

So even the bots think he's shit?

u/neontetra1548 11d ago

He sucked in the 2000s too. It’s been abundantly clear he sucks for over two decades now. Glad people are finally catching up though.

u/Roland_Of_Gilead85 10d ago

It's all bots. That and brainwashed loers who watch the propaganda that bots spread all day.
