I auditioned for Stone once. He was the same person when this nobody (me) was auditioning for a small non-speaking part as he is here with Bill. He laughed at my bits, he asked me questions about myself, and he flashed that great smile. I’ve been a fan ever since.

[@F22ERaptor]

Interesting. For what movie (if I may ask)?

[@darindunn]

@@F22ERaptor Pinkville. He told me I had a speaking part. But then the writer’s strike happened (2007) and the movie died in development. It was about the My Lai Massacre in Vietnam. I had never auditioned for a movie before (or since) and he made the process such an experience. The casting all took place in Thailand where I was working in media.

[@Servant_of_1111]

Bill Maher employs a psychological defense mechanism known as "Humorism," albeit unconsciously. This refers to using humor as a way to cope with or navigate uncomfortable or challenging situations. In Maher's case, he may use humor to address controversial topics or express opinions in a lighthearted manner, potentially deflecting criticism or easing tension. This interview also highlights Maher's concritization of intelligence, particularly evident in seniors experiencing cognitive decline. Concritization refers to the rigidification or crystallization of mental processes. In elderly individuals, this might manifest as a fixed and resistant mindset. Maher's display of this could include a reluctance to adapt to new ideas or a preference for familiar, established viewpoints. Surprisingly, Oliver Stone, who is of the same age, exhibits much more mental plasticity, showcasing a greater openness to new ideas and adaptability in contrast to Maher’s more fixed mindset.

I think what i like most about Oliver Stone is he simply tries to present people as who they are without applying a Western/American morality to them. This way you can understand their point of view and understand what motivates someone on the other side of the world. Then from there at their core you can begin to have a conversation about kind of world we should build. Tribes, czars, islamists, the far east. Right or wrong people are just different. I can see why he had such an affinity for Kennedy. We are all mortal.

What is exactly the "western morality" . 1-I sell to you and if you sell to me, the money must come back to us ( i have documentation of this on video like: the oil money we spend will you invest this money in Britain? etc. ) yes this has become weak... they made a mistake with china... underestimated them. China did warn them ( yes we can lol ) 2- democracy is cool as long as it prevents your country to make decision... when you get someone elected who wants to tac american companies in your countries.... we will destroy you? I could go on and on Btw i'm not ani west.... not even anything near that.... but these words have no real meaning... even north korea is called "democratic....." Democracy is a luxury... when everything is good, democracy works... otherwise it is useless. I know you have learnt at school that it is the otherway around.

Stone is so intrigued by anyone who shares his own distrust and criticism of the US, he is willing to overlook any flaws and criticism of those dictators and strongmen that he shares a viewpoint of the US with. In fact, he is so against the mainstream narrative of the US that he is willing to defend and wholesale believe the mainstream narratives of other oppressive regimes. He has never met a dictator or strongmen of that is critical of the US that he hasn’t liked, defended, and supported. Let’s be clear he is not a real historian, economist, political theorist, philosophy expert, etc. He is a talented film maker with an agenda. His identity is so tied to his position and lacks education on structured analytic techniques from serious researchers of the aforementioned professions that he is unable to be intellectually honest. He is not the exception to this, this is where we are as a society today. He just has a counter-mainstream perspective, let’s not confuse that with being a bastion of intellectual honesty.

They both display glaring biases that neither of them properly call the other out on in a constructive way. That being said, do you mean concretization when you say "concritization"? I believe that is the term used in medicine and psychology. Another term used more commonly would be ossification. They both display a lack of plasticity, but I suspect that Oliver is more open minded and capable of adapting to new ideas.

When he starts getting his ass handed to him he uses comedy like a shield to ward off being called full of shit. Ignorance is fine, I don’t know how to fly a commercial airliner but I’m not putting myself out into the aviation world as someone with an opinion to snipe at people who know what they’re talking about. If two people are in biology, physics, anything in a field of study and a group of students applies themselves and one doesn’t, that’s ignorance of the subject matter. You don’t hold that person up as some paragon of knowledge on the subject at hand. It’s not just Oliver Stone, Maher has done it for a quarter of a century. Court Jesters are not who you want to get your information from. And when you do as he does, you don’t really come off as the intellectual that you, or your fans, think you are. Quite the opposite. Maher is hilariously sarcastic, that’s why I appreciate him as a comedian. I feel the same way about Dennis Miller. It’s ironic how both of them changed when they witnessed just how mental their end of the political spectrum could get when it really got going.

The more I argued with them, the better I came to know their dialectic. First they counted on the stupidity of their adversary, and then, when there was no other way out, they themselves simply played stupid. If all this didn't help, they pretended not to understand, or, if challenged, they changed the subject in a hurry, quoted platitudes which, if you accepted them, they immediately related to entirely different matters, and then, if again attacked, gave ground and pretended not to know exactly what you were talking about. Whenever you tried to attack one of these apostles, your hand closed on a jelly-like slime which divided up and poured through your fingers, but in the next moment collected again. But if you really struck one of these fellows so telling a blow that, observed by the audience, he couldn't help but agree, and if you believed that this had taken you at least one step forward, your amazement was great the next day. The *** had not the slightest recollection of the day before, he rattled off his same old nonsense as though nothing at all had happened, and, if indignantly challenged, affected amazement; he couldn't remember a thing, except that he had proved the correctness of his assertions the previous day. Sometimes I stood there thunderstruck. I didn't know what to be more amazed at: the agility of their tongues or their virtuosity at lying.

Bill Maher employs a psychological defense mechanism known as "Humorism," albeit unconsciously. This refers to using humor as a way to cope with or navigate uncomfortable or challenging situations. In Maher's case, he may use humor to address controversial topics or express opinions in a lighthearted manner, potentially deflecting criticism or easing tension. This interview also highlights Maher's concritization of intelligence, particularly evident in seniors experiencing cognitive decline. Concritization refers to the rigidification or crystallization of mental processes. In elderly individuals, this might manifest as a fixed and resistant mindset. Maher's display of this could include a reluctance to adapt to new ideas or a preference for familiar, established viewpoints. Surprisingly, Oliver Stone, who is of the same age, exhibits much more mental plasticity, showcasing a greater openness to new ideas and adaptability in contrast to Maher’s more fixed mindset.

Yo Bill I'm with you. Stone is on the fringe here for me but it gets better as the interview continues and I like his history on Russia, Assange & Snowden. Nice job. Great interview.

Bill: “you can’t possibly believe trump got the election stolen from him?” Oliver: “what do u think happened in the 2000 election in Florida?” Bill: “uhhh uhh uhh uhh….”

[@delraypeter]

Hopefully Oliver Stone gets a word in

[@karagi101]

😅 It’s a conversation. Not an interview.

[@SuperJoshuaWorld]

One sided conversation

[@browningautomatic2393]

[@sunflower-oo1ff]

[@2Less0is0More2]

They're both speaking. Sit back, relax and enjoy

[@ljcalhoun]

Most of what Bill thinks are facts are things taken out of context.

[@HealthHorror]

@@ljcalhoun I have no idea how people like him have lifelong friends and endless guests willing to do his show. It almost seems like the more annoying or broken you are, the more friends you have these days.

[@shomulder6854]

I agree 101% and thought EXACTLY the same... Almost unbelievable...

[@jamiemoore7007]

Next to Oliver Stone, Bill’s ignorance really stands out.
