[Ed. – A warning from one of their own that the Left would do well to heed.]
“Real Time” host Bill Maher closed his show on Friday night by offering a warning to skeptics on the left who don’t buy into the existence of “cancel culture.”
“Liberals need a Stand Your Ground law … for cancel culture.” Maher began the monologue, “so that when the woke mob comes after you for some ridiculous offense, you’ll stand your ground, stop apologizing. Because I can’t keep up with who’s on the s—list.”
Maher also accused Republicans of “trying to appropriate” the term in response to “just comeuppance for actual crimes,” saying their muddying of the water was “unfortunate” because “cancel culture is real, it’s insane, it’s growing exponentially, coming to a neighborhood near you.”
“If you think it’s just for celebrities, no,” Maher asserted. “In an era when everyone is online, everyone is a public figure. It’s like we’re all trapped in ‘The Hills Have Eyes… and Wifi.'”
