      You can say that about any minority group and use it to justify whatever bigotry you hold. You just see transgenders in Hollywood taking a stand against what they see is a threat to the daily life of their community as a zero-sum game on your so-called “rights.”

    • @danm5911
      @danm5911 Před 2 lety +131

      @@RocStarr913 I didn't mention my rights at all. Or Hollywood for that matter. I was simply agreeing with Maher's observation that these people talk and act as if they are correct in every single observation and recommendation about the world as it pertains to them. But I agree with you that someone could say that about any group. The difference is, the trans group in particular displays what Maher is talking about - what we say goes and is right, and if you don't agree with us you're a "transphobe," a bigot, and any other label we can come up with.
      I don't see that in the black community, Asian community, Latino community, or any smaller racial categories, or whites for that matter. Other people know the world is a complex place with complex solutions to difficult problems. The transactivists just want everyone to agree with them on everything or else we're bigots. They're wrong.
      Because basic science is in opposition to them. Male/female is natural biological law, and there is not ONE single mammal that breaks that law. You can't find a single example to the contrary in nature. And I'm not talking about intersex, which is not what we're talking about here.
      I think they need mental health counseling, which is also what science said for decades until they caved to popular opinion and abandoned rationality and objectivity and we started enabling everyone and giving hormone suppressors to 10 year olds, which is child abuse.
      This has NOTHING to do with bigotry.

    I love, love, love John McWhorter's use of the phrase "striking battle poses against power differentials". Such an exquisite analogy for all the yelling people do about injustices, rather than actually doing what they can to create positive change.

I completely agree the left has gone insane. I am not saying Republicans are perfect, FAR FROM IT, but they are not trying to cancel anyone that disagrees with them. I dont agree with Maher 100% of the time but lately I applaud and respect him for pushing back against this cancel culture shit. Also I have to applaud him for calling out his own side as well and not just bashing republicans which is the big thing these days with the left.

Did Dave say some things that I disagreed with? Yes. Are there people who still do not accept me for who I am. Yes. That's okay. We can still treat each other with curtesy and respect, can't we?
    Dave's special brought up a lot of things about trans people. If the conversation were about what he actually said, that conversation could be constructive. People could learn some things. As it is, the woke Twitter people have made it about them. It has become about shutting down opposition to a correct way of viewing and speaking about the issue.

      Yang is friends with Chapelle, who endorsed his presidential campaign, so I'm not surprised that Yang didn't go full blast on Chapelle here. However, what Dave said in his special is completely contrary to Yang's normal takes on transphobia. Yang has always defended LGBT rights. He has also always defended comedians who put controversial takes in their comedy, such as the SNL guy who made racist comments about Yang. He meant exactly what he said: comedians are artists and their art should be treated differently than normal social commentary. That's all. Not a bad take but I do think it's fair to say the TERF joke wasn't even funny, it just seemed deliberately insulting.

For example, a man who likes wearing skirts is still a man but in our culture skirts have become associated with females. Probably due to old age access issues, ie squatting to pee. That's not universal through. Women now wear trousers freely. In other cultures the social morms are a bit different. I don't understand how you people don't get the difference.

Alas, these processes that have flourished since the demise of George Floyd have unleashed an on steroids rendition of a Dante's Inferno.

Andrew Young is not Bill or John, they have quite different views). Trans community acts like they have a monopoly on truth, and can't take any opposing views. And the people who often disagree with the trans community, aren't some horrible people, but just people who may have a slightly different opinion, yet are non-stop blackmailed by one entitled group: the trans community. Maher is exactly right. If you don't know it is like this, then you are not watching the debate closely, at all. Besides, Bill always invites all sides of the discussion, and I'm sure maybe he even tried to invite some trans activists, but they refused to show up. Because it is also a known fact that a lot of people refuse Bill's invitation because they are afraid of a real confrontation, and on this show, the confrontation is very, very real. They are simply afraid they will be exposed by Maher - many were, in the history of this show. Bill always invites people who represent all sides on every episode of this show, and btw, this is just a short youtube sneak-peek, maybe you should watch the entire episode.
