Once Upon a time Bill Maher was entertaining and a breath of fresh air, with his speech of, conservatives are fuck sticks, people who smoke weed and care more about animals than humans are the wave of the future, mixed in with a dash of people who are practicing monotheistic rituals are nothing short of mentally retarded are uneducated drones, yeah that kind of fresh air.
That kind of fresh air is more akin to flatulence, at some points its hilarious and refreshing to know that someone can be that comfortable around you to fart, and they know that you won’t care much, or you’ll laugh. On the other hand, if you’re in the middle of sex, or at a funeral or at the Opera, farting might be frowned upon, and your normal audience of at most 2 people are going to be annoyed.
I get where he is coming from, there is nothing better in life than entering into an argument where you set it up to where the other side has zero chance to come across as normal or sane, I know Bill O’Reilly has been doing this for years, and is far better at it than Maher. You see, Maher is a blowhard and a douche bag, who plays the role of the educated elite. Bill O’Reilly is the educated elite who plays the part of a blowhard and a douche bag.
That is where my problem is with Bill Maher, he has a bias. It’s not a liberal bias, it’s not a conservative bias, fuck it’s not even a remotely reasonable bias. Bill Maher is his own bias. Bill Maher would love nothing more, than to light some candles, take a bubble bath, turn down the bed, turn on some PETA artist and masturbate to a barrage of different Bill Maher based media, that and centerfold of this month’s best strain of weed.
It’s okay to have a bias and have your opinion, just don’t try to post your opinion as a fact. What I am typing is not factually based, it’s how I feel, Bill Maher needs to learn the difference. He’s not a political scholar, philosopher, theologian, actor, funny, he’s just a pot head with a loud mouth that got a lucky break 30 years back and forgot that he is the joke.
Now, occasionally, Bill Maher & Bill O’Reilly have some bits of genius. They are truly both equally rare, except in one case it’s not that rare, he gets paid to give out erroneous information, and the other one pretends that he gives out the only information and the media is trying to silence him and their objectives voice…wait, that still didn’t clarify my point. Let me try this again in a new paragraph.
The difference between Bill Maher & Bill O’Reilly is that one of them has intelligent conversations with people he agrees with and berates and denigrates people that he vehemently disagrees with. The other person has passive aggressive yelling matches with people he disagrees with and has thought provoking intellectual conversation with people he agrees with…wait that still doesn’t help…one more time.
Bill O’Reilly is a man who has a Masters from Boston University & Harvard University has a huge following, knows what the hell he is trying to do, makes obscene amounts of money. Bill Maher wants you to know that if you don’t smoke weed, something is wrong with you, and if you aren’t atheist, something is wrong with you, and if you eat meat, something is wrong with you, and that my friend leaves you with a target audience of about 9 people and $10.
Knowing who your target market is the key to being successful, both the Bills are successful, but if all you do is get your information from Two Bill’s all it will end up doing is rotting out your brain and help you confuse the difference between information & knowledge, and opinion & fact. Because clearly the Two Bills know what they are trying to achieve...Fart louder than anyone in the room.
Sincerely,
Icy Mike
