Suddenly they can’t say only a woman can give birth. But yes, bill maher is “the man who would not evolve”…. More power to him!

But it does lead to a problem where a minority party (say 10% of the vote) ends up in government perpetually, in coalition with either left or right-leaning parties. Google 'Purple Coalition'; basically the 2 main parties got so fed up with this they formed a giant coalition. Also, these systems typically hand candidate choice/preference entirely to the party elites. No system is perfect. The US system does seem uniquely open to abuse and chicanery (on both sides) mind.

He's been dumbing down the discourse for decades.

What a bunch of intellectual garbage. I am tired of religious bigots masquerading as sophisticated thinkers. Bill Maher is not a sophisticated thinker. I’ve never heard him make a good argument against the concept of God or justify his atheist position other than to spew insults and make sweeping unlearned generalizations. This isn’t a personal attack. I don’t know Bill except from television, the internet, and his public life. A serious atheist like Bertrand Russell, who I like, had arguments for atheism and against Christianity. Bill Maher has no arguments. Bill is also being dishonest when he criticizes people for their “attacks” on him and then he goes on to attack conservatives or people of faith etc. I think he knows that this stuff sells and that is a big reason why he does it. My main criticism of Bill is that he is anti-intellectual. He hides behind a thin veil of popularized intellectualism that would not stand up to any serious academic scrutiny. He runs fast and loose with definitions and words and is a product of fashionable progressive philosophies that are popular amongst actors, celebrities, and politicians. I like to go after this guy because I am hoping that giving him and his sort a bit of his own medicine might be good for honest dialogue. But I’ve come to learn that reason and rationality only works with reasonable and rational people and Bill Maher is neither of those things.

Bill Maher is a treasured American icon.

Critical thinking people can usually discern the truth from bs but need leaders like you, yes you are a leader even if you aren't a politician. We need leaders like you to stand up and confront the lies and bs. I think most people see what trumpism has exposed in American and we need a voice of blunt truth to balance it.

One of a few great comedic, 'spokespersons' ('comedians) with such insight, and ability to communicate reality, amusingly.

***** I absolutely agree that the other member states of the EU should share their burden in supporting migrants from other nations (proportional to their ability to do so - would be no point flooding Greece for instance!). As for non-EU nations, we have no control over their policies, so it's fruitless to become irritated by their unwillingness to share the check. Personally, I would simply ensure that in return, those nations are not recipients of OUR goodwill when they need it. Of course all cultures are not created equal, nor do all nations have the same attitudes towards human rights. Does that mean that we should follow their template? Clearly not. We rightly pride ourselves on being better than say Turkey, or Russia, or Bosnia, or perhaps even Japan, and in my opinion, we should continue to be the beacon for decency on the planet.

Graeme Green Kinda makes you loose hope for humans' ability to see beyond their own conditioned bullshit, don't it? Like the bullshit we are raised in as kids. Unless you're wrong. But I don't think you are. This whole thing about "parents raising children" pisses me off. Because every parent wants to pass on their own brand of bullshit on to their kids, so the kids turn out to be full of shit too as grown ups. If the reason you and I are liberal, is because our parents allowed us to be, or raised us to be, then we're no better. We're just luckier. Which is not impressive. We all have a thing or two to learn about critical thinking. I think the number 1 priority for child raising should be safety, and giving them all the chances they need to learn all they can, from as many differing perspectives and environments as possible, with a huge emphasis on logic and fairness to other people. Kids already come with extreme curiosity and energy to learn. "Teachers" should be called "learning facilitators". because it's really kids doing the work. Teachers just point the way. Not all too well either, sadly.

It is wonderful to listen to an intelligent man answering intellectually to a diverse number of questions

Great guy 👍
