Left-wing critics are demanding that HBO “cancel” Bill Maher after accusing the HBO “Real Time” host of delivering an anti-transgender monologue on last Friday’s show. David Kilmnick, who heads the nonprofit LGBT Network, wrote an article in Advocate magazine on Wednesday titled: “Bill Maher Has Gone Too Far With Anti-LGBTQ+ Comments.” Maher was blasted for saying that “we’re literally experimenting on children” by providing them with puberty blockers and other treatments aimed at facilitating gender transitions.
He also said that transitioning was becoming “trendy.” Maher hit out at Chase Strangio, a lawyer for the American Civil Liberties Union, who cheered efforts to ban a book

Well, I think just about every conservative knew its was only a matter of time before Maher was roasted by the "wokerati". Maher's position as the elder statesman of the loony left may yet protect him this time around, but the warning shot has been fired. It won't be long before Maher has the sudden urge to "spend more time with the family". Maher's great handicap is that he remains somewhat rational and those intent on destroying America must eradicate any dissenting voice, even if they carried the Left's water during the underground campaign to destroy our society. Maher has been a stooge for decades, a well paid stooge, but his usefulness to the Left is over the alphabet people will take him out.

This is good. Maher is very liberal but now these radicals even want to cancel him too? These radicals are self destructing. Everyone now hates them.

He may have changed his tune very recently, but I still am filled with a seething hatred every time I see that enormous beak and the mocking smile. He's done too much damage for me to just decide he is all of a sudden marvey. Kind of like when the republican politicians, I think Trump among them, were drooling over that Kanye West weirdo. I'm not buying it.

Remember how the 9/11 attacks and the reactions to them moved Dennis Miller from Liberal to Conservative? If getting woke cancelled moves Bill Maher from Left to right, it would be fitting, as he has been one of the most recent successors to Dennis Miller in the snarky news humor genre. It could be very helpful, too, for the Right to add one of the most articulate and clever practitioners of that genre (as long as some fresh disillusionment doesn't cause him to do a double-flip...)

The left is splintering - isn't it glorious? You knew it was just a matter of time the left pushed too far & the LGBTQRSXYZ+ community has gone too far and grooming children is the last straw. They have met their waterloo. Remember when gays said they only wanted respect, then it was only to get married. Now it's grooming children to join them in their sick perverted world.

Not much of a Maher fan. However, I've been "impressed" by his comments about current "Events". That's the way this country should be. A person should be allowed to voice his opinion. Some will disagree. Some agree. Gives people a chance to observe and study someone else's views or opinions. Not in this day. Anyone how voices an opinion that doesn't adhere to the latest woke horse feces is defamed. No chance to hear other views. Afraid to express oneself because you and your reputation will be ruined. Go Bill Maher. He must be doing something right.

I don't give a damn about the LGBTQ feelings. If they want this lifestyle, they have have to live with the consequences.

Never did care for Bill Maher, but he does raise some good points as of late. Clearly exercising his 1st Amendment rights, whether you agree or not. Paraphrasing an old quote, it's all cool until they come for your stuff.

Maher will not go quietly. Let them keep pushing their agenda. Yes he’s liberal and I think he’s headed to the middle on a lot of things. Nothing wrong with the middle. Not everyone is right about everything. There are extremists on both sides and I won’t stand with either. I know we all know some gay, black, yellow brown….whatever and we like them because they a good people. I grew up in a small town in PA, I never experienced anything that wasn’t white. I’m 62 and I had a man working with me that was black, he died about a year ago and I miss him. I have an aunt that is gay, you wouldn’t know it because she is a person who was successful and lived her life and didn’t advertise it, my favorite aunt. I was married twice, first time to Vietnamese woman and we had 3 children, second time to Mexican and she had 2 that we raised. I’m white, raised Catholic, which I don’t practice any longer, I love my country and the good people that live in it. Like I said nothing wrong with being in the middle on some topics.

Re#5: "Anti-transgender"? How can one be against something that quite simply does NOT exist? So-called "transgenders" are nothing more than mentally defective people playing dress up to indulge their perversions.

The left continues to advance its agenda of everything goes (except conservative thought ---- that must be canceled). Part of this agenda is to normalize the abnormal. proclaiming not only that gayness, transgender, perversion, incest, sexualization of children and all the rest are perfectly normal, but that these behaviors should be celebrated and advanced at every turn, including getting hooks into children who cannot yet understand and think for themselves. Maher is no conservative but he shows streaks of common sense at times lately and is brave enough to weather the loonies' storm. Good for him.

It seems to me that Maher has just come to his senses after a lifetime of living the liberal lie. Let the man speak the truth for a while before you cancel him. The LGBTQ crowd is disgusting and contains a large percentage of pedophiles. Enough.

I long for TW3 - That Was The Week That Was -on TV back in the '60s when the Federal government was lampooned and skewered with song and dance satirical comedy. There were no sacred cows and we enjoyed the freedom to speak freely and criticize openly. And we were naive enough to believe that would not change.
Then my enlightened generation came to power...

The alphabet mafia are/is ? a nasty group. They demand blind allegiance to their demands and actions. What did Maher say that was wrong? It's an opinion and opinions are not subject to anyone's "approval ".

The left doesn't simply disagree with different opinions nor do they come up with civil arguments for their side, they want every dissenting voice canceled. Disagree with the narrative, and they want you fired or ruined financially. Especially the gay mafia....easily the most intolerant group of people on the planet.

LBGTQ.... Gay and lesbian activists made a mistake aligning with the gender dysphoric community. Gender dysphoria is a mental illness. Some people would argue that so is being gay and lesbian, but the vast majority would not, including the psychiatric community and the Diagnostic & Statistical Manual... at least gay people don't as a rule create a fantasy world and demand you join them in it.

Gee,
I'm so old that I remember when the Leftists were screaming"FREE SPEECH".
(They did not say that they wanted free speech for THEM ONLY.)
By the way, don't forget that LGBTQ stands for
"Let's
Get
Biden
To
Quit!"
... and if there's a "+" tagged on the end, it means
"And take Heels-Up Harris with you. She Goes Too!"

Re#29: The American Psychiatric Association Board of Trustees voted to declassify homosexuality as a mental disorder in December 1973 under pressure from homosexual activists. The decision was purely political with no medical basis.
Homosexuality is a mental disorder; always has been, always will be. I may be wrong, but I doubt it.
