William "Bill" Maher, Jr. is an American comedian, writer, producer, political commentator, actor, media critic, and television host. As a television host, he is well known for the HBO political talk show Real Time with Bill Maher (2003-present). Maher previously hosted a similar late-night show called Politically Incorrect, originally on Comedy Central and later on ABC.
Maher is known for his sarcastic attitude, political satire and sociopolitical commentary. He targets many topics including religion, politics, bureaucracies, political correctness, and the mass media.
ABOUT THE OXFORD UNION SOCIETY: The Union is the world's most prestigious debating society, with an unparalleled reputation for bringing international guests and speakers to Oxford. It has been established for 189 years, aiming to promote debate and discussion not just in Oxford University, but across the globe.
The Oxford Union is deeply grateful and encouraged by the messages of support in response to our determination to uphold free speech. During our 200 year history, many have tried to shut us down. As the effects of self-imposed censorship on university campuses, social media and the arts show no signs of dissipating, the importance of upholding free speech remains as critical today as it did when we were founded in 1823. Your support is critical in enabling The Oxford Union to continue its mission without interruption and without interference. You can support the Oxford Union here: oxford-union.o...

I like Bill Maher. I love his show -- never miss it. I don't agree with him on everything. But I do agree with some of the comments below, that he's so used to performing in front of an audience and getting laughter and applause that it was hard for him to accept that most of these people in this audience were just here to listen.
@codedthreat5981 9 жыл бұрын
gspendlove Well he was on a comedy tour in Europe, so he had probably just done a bunch of shows and the audience here were probably a bunch of college students who are used to lectures and talks where they are supposed to stay quiet until the Q&A part. So it was probably awkward at first on both sides, but it was a good Q&A all in all.

They get angry and change the channel and demonize them to the point that even listening to what they have to say is immoral because they're lending an ear to an evil person.

@@cooldudecs Strictly direct democracy is extremely rare e.g. the Netherlands. Since they have a robust multi-party system there, it doesn't descend into mob-rule and tyranny over minorities. But it does lead to a problem where a minority party (say 10% of the vote) ends up in government perpetually, in coalition with either left or right-leaning parties. Google 'Purple Coalition'; basically the 2 main parties got so fed up with this they formed a giant coalition. Also, these systems typically hand candidate choice/preference entirely to the party elites. No system is perfect. The US system does seem uniquely open to abuse and chicanery (on both sides) mind.

He's a sell out who was more controversial on the ABC disney channel than he is now on HBO. He makes noises about being a reasonable liberal while directing people to vote for the insane. He sold out long ago, this is the guy who used to point out society is built on lies "making women nod", now he has the money to tell the truth, instead he chooses to tell lies when he clearly knows better, there is nothing to respect about that. He's been dumbing down the discourse for decades. His show is cut up in adhd fashion to minimize the amount of time any speaker has to deliver a thought, lest it be dangerous or make him look like the fool he is, and so you have panels of soundbites while he talks over them. Less substance than even a twitter argument, he can't criticize anything, he has always been the problem.

People who do not have a sense of humor, will always have a problem with anything said that they do not like. Comedians are NOT (i.e Don Rickles) saying things out of malice. They do not discriminate, they make fun of EVERYONE, every race, every religion, its just in light of making a joke about life's hardships. People, stop taking everything so seriously. Life is too short not to laugh at all the non sense around us. Lighen up do not get offended by comedy.

***** I absolutely agree that the other member states of the EU should share their burden in supporting migrants from other nations (proportional to their ability to do so - would be no point flooding Greece for instance!). As for non-EU nations, we have no control over their policies, so it's fruitless to become irritated by their unwillingness to share the check. Personally, I would simply ensure that in return, those nations are not recipients of OUR goodwill when they need it. Of course all cultures are not created equal, nor do all nations have the same attitudes towards human rights. Does that mean that we should follow their template? Clearly not. We rightly pride ourselves on being better than say Turkey, or Russia, or Bosnia, or perhaps even Japan, and in my opinion, we should continue to be the beacon for decency on the planet.

Graeme Green Kinda makes you loose hope for humans' ability to see beyond their own conditioned bullshit, don't it? Like the bullshit we are raised in as kids. Unless you're wrong. But I don't think you are. This whole thing about "parents raising children" pisses me off. Because every parent wants to pass on their own brand of bullshit on to their kids, so the kids turn out to be full of shit too as grown ups. If the reason you and I are liberal, is because our parents allowed us to be, or raised us to be, then we're no better. We're just luckier. Which is not impressive. We all have a thing or two to learn about critical thinking. I think the number 1 priority for child raising should be safety, and giving them all the chances they need to learn all they can, from as many differing perspectives and environments as possible, with a huge emphasis on logic and fairness to other people. Kids already come with extreme curiosity and energy to learn. "Teachers" should be called "learning facilitators". because it's really kids doing the work. Teachers just point the way. Not all too well either, sadly.
