BATTLE OF THE BILLS

I dunno why the quality is so bad, maybe it's the cigar smoke.

bill maher's immediate and childlike victim complex tells you everything about him as a person and how he sees this. to watch police brutalize students and their universities punish them and then to say that it's easy to side with the kids is genuinely delusional. bill burr continues to be a guy who gets it despite not being like particularly well-read or anything like that.

Something's gotta be written about how quick libs are to want to make "hard nosed" decisions like murdering children is okay or whatever. Some weird psychological reflex. Maybe the conservative bullying of them being naive hits home and they jump at the chance to show they're a real adult or something. But it's just so strange because objectively the "hard nosed" decision they're making is the absolute easiest one for them to support. It isn't hard at all.

It's easy for them to support because it serves their interests. It's hard nosed because acknowledging that it supports their interests means acknowledging that they have the same interests as the people they position themselves as being against.

Bill Burr used to have a good bit about Steve Jobs being a slave driver.

I expect nothing less from a guy that said the n-word and tried to defend himself

He starts by calling them Hamas, then says it’s easy to support the kids. So which is it Bill? Are they terrorist supporters or simpleminded children? Or are you just a fascist?
