Bill Maher, a well-known liberal, appeared on Greg Gutfeld’s show to talk about his new book bashing the woke left. This is surprising because liberals don’t usually openly criticize their own side. However, Maher is what some call a “classical liberal,” which means he sticks to old-fashioned liberal ideas instead of the extreme views we see today. It’s refreshing to see a liberal like Maher willing to call out the craziness of the left.

Maher also took a swipe at liberals’ worship of Biden. He pointed out that Biden may not appear as old as Trump, but there are still concerns about his behavior and statements. It’s important to acknowledge these facts, even if it goes against the mainstream liberal narrative. Biden’s divisive remarks, like those during the Morehouse commencement, don’t help bring people together. His outdated views on race only serve to push people away.
In addition, Maher criticized the current state of liberalism, saying that today’s “woke” culture is far from what true liberalism stands for. He’s right in pointing out that extreme views are isolating liberals from the majority of Americans. It’s commendable to see Maher speaking out against the radical left, even though it goes against the liberal echo chamber.
Overall, Maher’s willingness to engage with those who have different opinions and his criticism of his own party show a level of intellectual honesty that is rare to find in today’s political climate. It’s important for individuals to think for themselves and not blindly follow party lines. Hopefully, more liberals will follow Maher’s example and strive for a more balanced and respectful political discourse.
