I remember a couple of you saying you occasionally watch Bill Maher, and I thought this was a pretty well done monologue from last night. I know most here will gloss over it or feel attacked, but I enjoyed it.
That show is nothing more than cat nip for pseudo-intellectuals. The crowd is unbearable the way they lose their sh*t over anything Bill or his guests say that they recognize as a hit to the opposing "team", regardless of how funny or clever it isn't. I watched the clips of Milo's interview and the round table, and found little to no substance in it and left disappointed.
The only highlight was when the comedian started lashing out and telling Milo to go F himself because he got triggered.

Agreed on the Milo roundtable. And yeah, I laughed too. Milo comes off as that bratty kid that thinks he knows everything, and Wilmore had enough.

Telling someone to go F themselves is not an argument.
Just like how the Australian comic told Piers Morgan to F off, the left is showing how backed up against the wall they are these days, when all they can do is throw around some profanity.

I don't think there has ever been anyone on the show with a 3-digit IQ, including Milo, who would likely be a 7-Eleven clerk if he had a heterosexual orientation and couldn't be the token right wing gay.

You obviously haven't seen much from him, then. He is a very talented speaker, writer, and debater.
The magic R is nothing new and it shares a space on the shelf with the mystical D.
After all is said, ultimately political party involvement and fanhood only means "this is the side that I will give all benefit of the doubt to, so help me God."

This is true... Milo plays the prat but he's not stupid. He is intentionally offensive, much like George Carlin. HE is sure as **** smarter than people like lena dunham....
The difference was this: George Carlin was purposefully offensive in a time when the right was trying to control what people could say or think. While Milo is being purposefully offensive in a time when the left is trying to control what other people can say and think.
Conservatives spent a good 40 years chasing libertarians away. The "progressives" have managed to push libertarians back to center in about 8-10 years.

A lot of Christians did not like Carlin's schtick. Humors only funny when it's not hitting you square between the eyes.
