(Janet Van Ham/HBO via AP) Is Bill Maher ever going to realize he’s switched sides?
He may not have moved, but the Democrat Party is now miles down the road from Billville.
He still rips religion, and he’s avidly anti-Republican.
He may not have jogged to the GOP, but he’s certainly on a side vastly different than Dems.
Apropos of being on the outs, he laid into left-wing language on Friday’s episode of Real Time.
The liberal listed eight words whose meanings shouldn’t be reworked by wokesters: victim
hero
Christian-Driven America-First Precious Metals.
Before markets collapse, the smart play is to move wealth or retirement to precious metals. Contact Genesis Gold now to make it happen smoothly with no hassles from a group driven by fellowship.

survivor phobic white supremacy Moving on, he addressed the controversy of Hannah Gadsby and Dave Chappelle .As you may know, in Dave’s latest video venture , he said he wasn’t suggesting transgender women aren’t women.But also: Their vaginas aren’t like other women’s.Hannah hadn’t appreciated the performance, as Bill recalled: “Comedian Hannah Gadsby characterized Dave Chappelle’s controversial Netflix special as hate speech dog-whistling. Well, ‘dog whistle’ refers to when someone puts things in code because they’re afraid to come out and say what they really think. That’s what you get from Dave Chappelle? That he’s afraid to say what he really thinks?” The host rang an important bell: “And it’s not hate speech just because you disagree with it. “ “Nor is it phobic,” he added. “Phobic comes from the Greek word for ‘something one fears irrationally’ — like spiders or germs. But now [it’s] used as a suffix for anything you just don’t like.” It’s a late point to make, but nonetheless true. “Homophobic,” “transphobic,” “Islamophobic,” “Christophobic” — it seems to me these sorts of words aren’t worth much.American English has become littered with attempts to win arguments without making superior points.These days, the syllables themselves are left to do the heavy lifting.How, after all, could you fight for a “phobia?” Or against “safety”? Or in favor of “harm”?Topics which deserve discussion instead are thrown the scraps of loaded language.Bill went on: “Also in the category of ‘We just don’t like it, so we’re pretending it’s something else’ is the word ‘violence.’” He ain’t just whistlin’ Dixie.A batch of brutal cases […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
