Bill Maher blasts 'woke' left for losing 'perspective' on 'real oppression': 'We're not the bad guys!'
Fox News
"Real Time" host Bill Maher closed his show on Friday night by teaching liberals the "lesson of Afghanistan" amid the ongoing turmoil in the Middle East.
Maher poked fun at Republicans for being "overly sentimental" when it comes to patriotism and "over-romanticizing" America, but blasted liberals for "under-romanticizing" America and accused them of "having no perspective." "I've had two presidents up my a--. … Neither experience was pleasant, but I never had to worry about being dragged 'til I'm dead behind a Toyota Tacoma." "There's a reason Afghan mothers are handing their babies to us. And we should take them." "The overriding thrust of current ‘woke’ ideology is America is rotten to the core, irredeemably racist … oppressive, sexist and homophobic." "Take a good look at what real oppression looks like. Ask your maid, ask your Uber driver, ask the Asian woman giving you a massage." "Last week, the Taliban murdered a comedian," Maher said, referring to Afghan comedian Nazar Mohammad, who was tortured and executed. "A comedian, a thing like that really hits close to home for me. I've had two presidents up my a--. … Neither experience was pleasant, but I never had to worry about being dragged 'til I'm dead behind a Toyota Tacoma. Have a little perspective about the stuff we howl about here."
