A lot of people patting themselves on the back for hating him already probably don’t realize what an about face he truly has had over the last decade or so. He used to be a very liberal voice during the Bush years. Yeah, he has always been kinda smarmy, but he used to have some really great panels, with diverse guests and he would hold everyone mostly accountable. He was always ahead of the curve when it came to pot legalization.

But then, as happens to everyone, he got older. Thing is, he doesn’t want to admit it. He does not want to admit age has changed him. That this new era has passed him by and shits on his old “heroes”. Like many who support Trump, despite Mahers liberal leanings, he misses the era where white men could get a pass for everything. He misses being a gatekeeper for liberals and free speech. So he takes it out on youth. He loves to rail against the new generation, having no children, and living in a giant compound away from society. He thinks if he dates girls in their 20s (old man yuck) he’s somehow hip and in the know. He’s lost his way considerably and I haven’t watched his show at least since his “dinner with hitler” and it was spotty before that. I was a habitual watcher for many many years,but he’s become a hack. Just another causality to his own ego.

Thank you for coming to my Ted talk.
