In reply to the discussion: Once and For All, Bill Maher IS NOT the Titular Head of a Major Political Party like Limbaugh Is [View all]CrawlingChaos
(1,893 posts)48. Well, now I see why you like him so much
You appear to be cut from the same cultural supremacist cloth. I hope that someday you will re-think your prejudice, because swallowing all that hateful propaganda only helps warmongers. Bill Maher is a liar and a bigot. If you're interested in the truth about Islam and the Muslim world, you might start with Juan Cole's work, but I don't suppose you will.
Furthermore, it is indefensible to try to maintain that Maher is not sexist. The evidence is virtually mountainous. Yes, he likes to talk about womens' rights, but when you say one thing and do another that is called LIP SERVICE. It means nothing. Maher is a misogynist of epic proportions.
Btw, I must say, you have a very different definition of 'liberal' than I do.

Once words like 'slut' and 'c***' are tossed out, there are completely equal.
