  Lol it’s a pretty standard opinion, actually. Maybe one of the most shared opinions across the American political spectrum.

      Yes you do. Democrat or Republican, everyone with sense hates Bill Mahr.

        I think you can have sense and still find him a little entertaining. He’s definitely a bit full of himself, but I enjoy hearing someone talk shit a little shit about the left.

        Guess I did get a little tired of him, haven’t watched his show in like a year. But I wouldn’t say I hate him.

  I’ve hated him for platforming conservatives for years while offering the weakest counter-points to their sophistry. He thinks he’s John Stewart, but lacks the discipline and hard work that goes into preparing for interviews with hostile guests.

  I never thought that was a controversial opinion. I second that

  I’ve yet to meet anyone that likes Bill Maher. He just seems so… douchey.

  That’s not controversial? It’s known that he’s taken a pronounced, pandering turn to the right and is not redeemable.

  I don’t hate him, but there is a lot of ego and vanity on the guy. And he’s far less clever than he thinks he is.

  It’s not controversial. Anybody with the level of success he’s reached has a trillion trolls and haters. You can’t make everyone like you… especially when you speak your mind about everything.
