The PC Culture has been the one topic Bill Maher has ALWAYS been on the right side of. You can argue that he’s moved from Libertarian to more Liberal. This saddens me. But he’s denounced PC culture consistently, and for THAT I applaud him.

[@nonmagicmike723]

He's moved liberal/leftist on economics, as he favors more wealth redistribution and business regulation. But on social issues, he remained pretty much a libertarian, in that he rejects the increased social regulations that conservatives and liberals typically favor (on offensive speech, drugs, prostitution, protecting certain identity groups, stricter decency standards, encouraging monogamy, greater emphasis on consent, etc.)

[@Kildergcowboy]

[@OrlandoFace]

I don't think I've ever heard him ripping on the left of center without first dumping on the right. Seriously. Take any bit where he attacks right, it's just that. Any attack on the left is started with an attack on the right. And the only two topics he has ripped on the left is Islam (being of Jewish ancestry I think can be seen as bias) and free speech (as a result of him being targeted as a comedian on college campuses for boycott/protest). He will never rip on the extremes of either side in total fairness.

[@mralexhernandez]

Robert Fournier you are correct about that. I always found it confusing that Bill claims to be a libertarian but is so quick to jump in to defend the left. His hatred of Trump is really misconstrued. I do agree with him when it comes to marijuana legalization, political correctness/free speech, and his views on religion to an extent. But with everything else, I take with a grain a salt or I’m just pissed at him, pretty much

Just an fyi, NO actual Asian people think it's cultural appropriation if you wear their cultural clothing. In fact, I live in Japan and sometimes I am required to wear their cultural garments. For example, if I want to do judo or kendo, the first thing people ask is if I have the appropriate uniform. And guess what, that's their cultural garments they're deeming is the only appropriate garment for me to wear. Ironic. The term cultural appropriation should be reserved for when a majority member uses a cultural item to undermine and taunt the stereotyped image of a minority group. Too many lefties (and I am a leftist) think East Asians are a minority group. Pfft, not in their countries they're not. We white people are a significant minority over here. So it makes no sense to get all up in arms if a young woman wears a kimono or Chinese dress. Over here, they're encouraged to wear them, and there are companies solely targeting foreign business.

[@skierdude95]

Nicholas Arminius I’ve spent time in Japan, the host family I stayed with gave me a yukata, similar to a kimono but with different material. If I wore it as a costume and some SJW told me “that’s racist!” “or culturally insensitive” I’d tell them to fuck off, if the Japanese family who actually gave it to me as a gift wants me to wear it, who the fuck are SJWs to tell me what they think is “racist or insensitive?”

And some nonsense the right can use to attack the left when the right gets caught doing something actually bad. Get caught making racist remarks? Make up shit about how your right to be a pirate has been taken away. False equivalency.

The Handsmaid tale could happen.. that's what is scarier than halloween.. Go Vote..

[@walkinondamoon1]

This couldnt happen. And even in the show it happened purely due to extreme circomstances surrounding this change in womans rights (if you dont know what im talking about read the book or watch the show). And if you read between the lines just a smudge, beyond the personal sad story of June, it basically says the system, while cruel, was warrented and effective. While other democracies were failing. And im here talking about the book n tv show, nothing real life related, before anyone goes PC on me 😂

[@ursaltydog]

@@walkinondamoon1 & @1984 is not a handbook: Not going to go PC on ya.. but.. Do not the preceding instances involve similarities between the book or movie and our society today? A society filled with negativity towards women, "bleeding out" remarks during public rallies against women of the media and political realm, drastic decrease of male and female fertility and declining birthrates in the U.S. likely due in great part to namely environmental influences (pollution that will continue to be allowed under this administration, genetic issues that will not be addressed by our nation (especially if preexisting conditions are removed from ACA), female reporters, senators and house members being interrupted as if they are nonconsequential (return to prior patriarchal periods in which women were to be educated but only so much as to not interfere with male on male conversations but provide decent offspring) and that women have no true control over their bodies (evident in legislation passed in each state in conflict with Roe Vs. Wade, all in dominance over females, not merely reproductive in nature... Actual national discussion over whether a woman who is impregnated during rape, that it must've been an act of god and cannot be "murdered"... )... Tell me it's not happening. It's a sociological pattern.. that if we return to, WMD's will have a totally different meaning... White Male Dominance over every other class..

[@walkinondamoon1]

@@ursaltydog well no. Ok so the push of this new religious/ideological movement didnt come about out of the blue. It came from sudden decline of births, destruction of environment, seeping of all sort of modern chemicals into our bodies making us not fertile. It didnt come about from todays society. But a place on a brink of destruction. This ideological view came from the (from their view) self destructive modern free loving, fully freed of responsability and only looking at your own well being selfish behavior. Why both sexes were for this ideology in such huge numbers. In the book they were in the right that extreme measures were necessary to clean up the ecological mess (causing a sevete food shortage), and toxic way of living (all the chemicals and radiations from different devices) and make a concentrated repopulation program to save mankind. Its very logical in such extreme times to, for sake of survival, throw away personal freedoms and rights. (Infact books ending shows how well that state did, that the state was able later to transform back into a liberal state after the crisis was overcome). Todays society is far from this state of crisis so things wount change. There is no catalyst for that. No matter how much ISIS or any extremests of any sorts would like it to happen. Infact today, in law woman have more rights than men. There is no possible way to turn back the times. For one modern economies are based on equality and both gendered workforce. For that to happen woman always need to have equal rights. One is linked to the other. If they didnt work economy of the west (and east) would collaps. This is why muslim countries where women dont work, or dont work in great numbers (unless they have extreme buttload of oil and their workforce is 60% + foreigners) are in a very bad state and have bad quality of life. If you mean just reproductive rights.... wellll those are seperate issues. In Ireland for example they only recently allowed abortions, and women have all the rights man have and never felt discriminated. But that right will never be overturned. Limited at worst. But it aint going away.

[@ursaltydog]

​@@walkinondamoon1 You're right.. it didn't "come out of" but it's espoused in the collective beliefs of conservativism that bordered on outright communist aggression. But how was that crisis overturned? Because it went way too far... And we ARE headed towards that state.. many countries are, and it's due to a perception that immigrants all over the world are supplanting the WMD. Women may have more rights than compared to before, but they are slipping, because the consciiousness is reversing, just as it is for LGBT.. Their rights are being threatened to be reversed, from not merely marriage but outright living.. State by state is legislating gays to be denied rights to work.. for employers to have the right to fire if they are found to be gay.. merely to provide a roof over their heads and to eat.. Unless of course they want to go to extremes to hide again.. like in the 1930's.. The manager of the recent mail bomber was quoted that she didn't have a right to fire Sayoc based upon his political beliefs even though those political beliefs were aimed verbally at her in violent rhetoric. But because he did his job and did it well, she felt she did not have a right to deprive him of employment. Would we get the same treatment in those states? No.. As for western economy depending upon women in the workforce, that has not stopped other nations from once having liberated women working in the workforce to stay home, mask their entire bodies, not being able to drive or be alone without the accompaniment of a male overseer. I'm referring to Iran here... And it happened nearly overnight.. And we, the U.S. caused that.. Don't think it can't happen here? Rights are being overturned and liquified from the last administration in just two years. Voters rights, voters laws, (Voters Rights act of 1965 weakened in 2013 (5-4 decision) to the extent, there is no oversight in new laws that affect minorities for instance). Every cabinet and major office and now judicial seats (not just the Supreme court) are being filled with oligarch elites bent on Conservative Darwinism.. That's how quickly it can come.. 4-8yrs, if something is not done.

If trans people don't exist according to the federal government there's no need to accommodate them in any way. Use of bathrooms is strictly determined by biological sex. Any policy to subsidize transition no longer exists. And legislation to protect trans people is null and void because they no longer exist in the eyes of the government.
