Bill Maher rips Dems in ‘Quiet on Set’ rant, says left will overlook child sex abuse if ‘wrong party’ calls it out

Comedian Bill Maher went on a blistering tirade against “woke” ideology, saying that Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis “wasn’t wrong” when he called out Disney for sexualizing children, and that liberals were willing to “overlook” it because it was a Republican who spoke out.

The host of HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher” delved into the shocking revelations from Max documentary, “Quiet on Set: The Dark Side of Kids TV” during his latest episode Friday.

“OMG. Nickelodeon? It wasn’t a studio, it was Neverland Ranch with craft services,” Maher said.

Bill Maher said Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis “wasn’t wrong” when he criticized Disney for sexualizing children. 

*** and ***

Maher said Nickelodeon isn’t all that different than Disney, citing a report that showed a slew of workers at the Mouse House, too, had been arrested for sex crimes against kids.

“A 2014 CNN report discovered that at least 35 Disney employees had been arrested for sex crimes against children. And in 2021, Disney child star Alyson Stoner confessed she only narrowly survived the toddler-to-trainwreck pipeline. The next year, child star Cole Sprouse told The New York Times that young actresses at the Disney Channel were heavily sexualized from an early age,” he said. 

*** and ***

“Oh, for pedophiles in Hollywood. It’s a small world, after all,” the comedian deadpanned. “DeSantis wasn’t wrong! But we’re so tribal now, the left will overlook child-f—ing if the guy from the wrong party calls it out.”

*** end quote ***

Bill Maher is like Piers Morgan in my book.  I don’t always agree with their politics, but I listen when they “hit one out of the park”.

In this case, Maher is “right over the target” to chastise those who would absolve child predators because they are of the correct party.

Sounds like Nickelodeon, Disney, and Hollywood in general need a “colonoscopy” level investigation of all the allegations and convictions.  

Some long prison sentences and “banishments” need to be handed out with lots of publicity.  

Argh!

RANT: Has anyone ever talked to a child?

Pediatrician Discharges Mother’s Kids After She Objects to Gender Ideology

  • “We will not abandon our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion!”

Posted by Mike LaChance Monday, September 18, 2023 at 08:00am 2 Comments

*** begin quote ***

    My now-former pediatrician installed on the wall of every exam room a “Safe Zone” rainbow triangle sticker with the words “sexual orientation,” “gender expression,” and “gender identity.” Meticulously placed in front of the exam table and at a child’s eye level, it was the first thing my daughter noticed on the otherwise blank walls. She asked me to read the words and tell her what they meant. She was five years old and just learning to read.

    I told the doctor this was inappropriate sexual content on the wall and there will be no talk of this sticker with my daughter, but when my daughter asked about the sticker again, the doctor told her, “it’s about being inclusive.” This confused my daughter even more.

    After a tense disagreement (in another room) about the politics of the sticker, my doctor agreed that it was reasonable to place younger children in exam rooms without the sticker. But she never placed my children in another room or returned my follow-up calls. Instead, a doctor called me and “invited” me to leave the medical practice. It is illegal to discharge a patient without thirty days’ notice in Rhode Island.

*** end quote ***

I like to quote Bill Maher, with whom I sometimes agree and sometimes disagree, when he said: “When I was a kid, I wanted to be a pirate. Thank God, nobody took me seriously and scheduled me for eye removal and pegleg surgery.” — Bill Maher

Having had the opportunity to be around a young boy, I can attest that he can’t tell the difference between real life and fiction.  He, often talks to his imaginary friends and tells me stories that I KNOW can’t possibly be true.  He has a hard time with time, days of the week, writing the number FIVE.  

And, these cult zealots want to explain sex to that age group.  Might as well try and explain Quantum Physics. 

Just leave the child run out of the debate and in the usually capable hands of their living family,

This type of nonsense, jest makes me boild and rant.  

Sorry but this doctor is in the wrong profession.  He should try preaching.   Probably won’t pay as well though.

Argh!

Liberal comedian Bill Maher launched the Cojones Awards, a new trophy for those who stand up to cancel culture mobs, on Friday’s edition of his long running HBO talk show. The award honors ‘outstanding achievement in growing a pair.’

Maher, 67, handed out a gold trophy of dangling testicles to Netflix CEO Ted Sarandos for his refusal to apologize over the controversy created by Dave Chappelle’s 2021 comedy special The Closer, which was criticized over jokes about the transgender community. 

The host congratulated Sarandos for standing firm as Netflix employees walked out of their jobs over the controversy. He joked that if staff didn’t like the content then maybe ‘Netflix may not be the best place for you.’

While I don’t agree with his liberal slant, but with these awards he seems to doing the right thing.

Maher: Dems Have ‘to Answer’ for Education Failures and More Money Won’t Fix the Problem

“Is this guy beginning to pull his head out ?”

Maybe, but he can’t pull it out completely because he will lose his audience and gig.

Maybe he’s is either a concealed libertarian or just a liberal coming to his senses.

GOVEROTRAGEOUS: Children are mature enough from age SEVEN?

Thursday, March 30, 2023

Pentagon doctors claim children are mature enough from age SEVEN to decide if they want puberty blockers and hormone drugs — in report co-authored by trans pediatrician

  •     Pentagon doctors said it was against children’s human rights to deny them care
  •     The piece appeared in the American Journal of Public Health last month
  •     READ MORE: Editor warns trans children in the US are being rushed to surgery

*** begin quote ***

Pentagon doctors have backed research claiming trans children as young as seven can decide they want puberty blockers and hormone-warping drugs.

In an editorial led by Air Force colonel Dr David Klein, officials said minors ‘have an inherent ability and right to consent’ to the interventions that are often irreversible.

The piece cites a 2018 study by Dutch researchers that claims more than 90 percent of over-sevens are mature enough to decide their gender identity and whether they want to start transitioning medically.

*** end quote ***

I think they are out of their $%^Y&U* minds.

Think of all the things we don’t let 18 year old do as a society.  I have read that brains don’t fully mature until people are in their late 20’s.

I can’t say enough how reprehensible I find this “study”.  And while I don’t often agree with Bill Mahr, I think he sums it up best.

“When I was a kid, I wanted to be a pirate. Thank God, nobody took me seriously and scheduled me for eye removal and pegleg surgery.”  — Bill Maher

RANT: Maher getting “better and better” from a libertarian perspective

‘Is that cool now? To choose a totalitarian police state over America?’ Bill Maher slams US-born Olympic gold medal skier Eileen Gu for choosing to compete for China

  • ‘Real Time’ host Bill Maher criticized Olympic gold medal skier Eileen Gu, 18, for defecting to China’s team amid rampant human rights violations in the country
  • He also criticized the NBA, basketballer LeBron James and action star John Cena for ‘kowtowing’ to China’s regime
  • ‘Is that cool now, to choose to represent a totalitarian police state over America?’
  • ‘Because the “woke” now see race first and everything else never, fear of being accused of racism has given a free pass on human rights abuses to China’

*** begin quote ***

‘Real Time’ host Bill Maher struck out at American celebrities who he said ‘kowtow’ to China on Friday night, including California-born Olympic skier Eileen Gu who is competing for China, her mother’s homeland, in this year’s Beijing Olympics. 

‘Is that cool now, to choose to represent a totalitarian police state over America,’ he asked, kicking off his monologue. 

‘The Olympics pretends to only be about sports but of course, the games have always been a bit of a proxy war for which country has the best system. 

‘And by choosing Team China, Eileen Gu became a living symbol of China’s triumph over the west, which wouldn’t bother me so much if I thought China had triumphed over us in the ways that really matter. But they haven’t.’

*** end quote ***

More and more, either I’m changing or Bill Maher is becoming more “libertarian”.

I was stunned that anyone would go over to China for the “genocide olympics”.

Give Bill Maher credit for calling out a “turncoat”.  Maybe that’s harsh.  But, I don’t understand the decision, unless it came with a big cash stipend.

Sigh!

RANT: Bill Maher is right “we are all NOT in it together”

Maher on Canada Protests: There’s an Accurate View That Some Can Afford to Stay Home and Others Who Can’t
IAN HANCHETT — 11 Feb 2022

*** begin quote ***

Maher stated, “I thought, like during the pandemic, I talked about this many times, we would see these ads, we are all in it together. And I’d think, no, we’re not. There are some people who stay home and some people who bring them the food. If you’re just ordering Amazon and you don’t ever have to go out and your job, you can do remotely — but who’s bringing the Amazon things? The trucker.”

*** end quote ***

Like my feelings about Piers Morgan, I am finding myself more and more agreeing with Bill Maher more and more.

I think that these politicians and bureaucrats who say “we are all in it together” are just peddling more “barbara streisand”!

I guess my views are becoming more into alignment with these guys calling the hypocrites out.

POLITICAL: Are we going to get yet another really ignorant Supreme Court justice?

Bill Maher torches Sotomayor for botching COVID facts: ‘That’s really ignorant for a Supreme Court justice’
The HBO star also calls out AOC for going to Florida and wonders why Kyrie Irving can’t play home games
By Joseph A. Wulfsohn | Fox News

*** begin quote ***

“Real Time” host Bill Maher returned from his holiday break Friday and took aim at liberals for their responses to and handling of the coronavirus pandemic. 

Along the way, the HBO host commented on U.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, NBA player Kyrie Irving of the Brooklyn Nets and U.S. Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor.

Maher kicked off the show’s panel discussion by listing all the COVID restrictions the United Kingdom is lifting from mask mandates to vaccine passports, saying “They’re getting back to normal, we should follow this.”

*** end quote ***

Unfortunately, it appears that Joe Biden is using sex & race as a critical criteria for deciding who to nominate for the Breyer’s replacement.

And, worse, when selections are made for “appearance”, then we wind up with a Justice like Sonia Sotomayor.  Virtually illiterate about the facts around Covid.

Hopefully the Senate will do it’s job and maybe administer an IQ test.

SERVICE: CARBONITE dumps Rush.

WND EXCLUSIVE
Rush Limbaugh unloads on fleeing advertisers
‘You won’t get apologies from people like Bill Maher
by Joe Kovacs

*** begin quote ***

PALM BEACH, Fla. – Radio giant Rush Limbaugh offered a second apology to a Georgetown University graduate student today after calling her a “slut” and “prostitute” last week, saying he descended to the level of the left, and added he would replace the advertisers who have abandoned his show over the controversy.

“I became like the people we oppose. I ended up descending to their level,” Limbaugh said. “It’s important not to be like them, particularly in fighting them.”

*** end quote ***

# – # – #

So, since I’ve been watching this train wreck unfold, I found: (1) the gal is NOT a 23 year old with a legitimate gripe; (2) she’s actually a political type; (3) contraception is freely available from Target two blocks from the school for 9$/month; (4) Rush apologized (sort of); (5) President Obama stoked the fire; just like his MO with the “beer summit”; and (6)  she’s enjoying her 15 minutes of fame.

So, just like I wrote in support of Don Imus, I wrote CARBONITE in SUPPORT of Rush. And will write to the others.

I’m not a Rush fan. I have listened him. He’s too “conservative” and supports the “warfare state” while he rails against the “welfare state”. But, he may have been a little dumb too. He should have suspect that this was a trap. But he fell for it. I would have to, but than I’m just a blogger; not a “trained broadcast professional”.

I’m outraged by the media’s selective outrage. The way they treated Sarah Palin. And, the lack of uproar when the “liberal” democratic operatives disguised as media commentators talked about Monica Crowley, Laura Ingram, and Michelle Malkin is biased. Some of those comments were a lot worse!

# – # – #

EMAIL TO CARBONITE:

In SUPORT of RUSH, I came to sign up another computer. But I found out that you’ve abandoned him. Take a look at the situation again. True, he went over the line, but she was a trap. She’s not what she claims to be, and it’s becoming OBVIOUS that this a Democratic dirty trick. When you go back to him, so to I will come back to you.

# – # – #

Other emails will be going out to: AOL, ProFlowers, Quicken Loans, mattress retailers Sleep Train and Sleep Number, software maker Citrix Systems, data-backup service provider Carbonite and online legal document services company LegalZoom.
