Patriot Act was a hysterical show. It is probably one of the last shows that would consistently make me belly laugh. We can debate whether his creative license was manipulative or artistically valid, but I mean he shouldn’t lose a show that the world used to think he deserves. He is honestly extraordinarily talented in my humble opinion.
EDIT: I believe this despite being a massive Bill Maher fan. You can search my post history: I am very active on the r/Maher subreddit.
No he isn’t. Being pro-free speech and having conversations with republicans doesn’t make you right-wing.
Pff. He’s Joe Rogan, except older & (even) more reactionary. When I want to hear someone just talk shit and act persecuted, I listen to Meek Mill.
Right wing might be the wrong word. Reactionary is probably better. I stopped watching his show years ago after it was clear he wasn’t actually willing to consider opinions contrary to his reactionary positions re Islam, gender fluidity, and supposed cancel culture.
