Watching Bill Burr roast Maher so hard on his simplistic ideas about what is happening over there was so magical. Fuck Bill Maher. Can't believe I ever respected the guy.

I liked Bill Maher at one point.

Like Kyle, I watched a lot of Maher/Dawkins/Hitchens in the early 2010s.

It was great to see Bill Burr put Bill Maher in his place on Israel/Palestine when Maher made that comment that Cenk is referring to.

Fwiw, I still like Hitchens (RIP). But I don't like Dawkins or Maher anymore. I think Hitchens would not have followed the path of Maher & Dawkins if he were alive today.

Wasn't Hitchens a driving voice for the invasion of Iraq?

Thats when I stopped respecting him. He would have been on Maher's side here.
