Episode 814 – Even He Gets It!

Bill Maher was on fire this weekend. Good news, he’s what real progressives actually think.

The war in Gaza is escalating and that’s bad news for Hamas.

And a terrible story comes out from England.

Some Thoughts

Bill Maher had some thoughts about Leftism destroying Western Civilization. I think this is important coming from him. Not because he is the only voice, but he is a voice of reason from the Left.

Maher is not a Conservative by any stretch. In fact, what is ironic about his speech is that he is still coting for an individual that is against a lot of his values. Listen and enjoy, but don’t think for a moment that this guy is on our side. Just be happy that there are more people like him on the Left than purely insane Lefties.

There is this theory called the White Replacement Theory. The Left has claimed this is a white supremacist theory. That is a feint and not true. The Left see white people, especially men, as evil and are thrilled at the thought that the country is being replaced by people of color. They say it. They don’t want to admit it because it’s racist but they do. Things like open borders, the colonization craze, the elimination of statues and history, critical race theory and segregation are all proof of what they think of white people.

But, more than hate of white people, it is the hatred of Western Civilization. Why though? Because the ideas that this civilization promotes goes against theories that bored Leftists think are awesome. Socialism, anarchy, communism, the nanny state and free love are all the things they love. These are all the things that have been tried before and have failed. Not once or twice but over and over again.

Why? Why do they continue to support these ideals that only lead to misery, slavery, despair and death? Because they are bored. They sit in their classrooms, read about Marxism and bitch about capitalism using all the technology and innovations created by capitalism. Here’s what is jacked up, they think their lives would be just as easy and just as privileged under socialism as it is now. Hell, it would be better because then they don’t have to work.

Here are some fallacies these people believe that have been proven wrong over and over again:

  • Socialism works. It just hasn’t been done right.
    • Socialism has been tried at the family level, in schools, in communes and in governments for all of our existence. It has never worked.
    • All sorts of different flavors have been tried including Marxism, Trotskyism, Leninism, Stalinism and Maoism.
    • Different flavors have been implemented by Mao and Xi of China, Kim in North Korea, Macron in France, Hitler and Mussolini during World War II. None of it has worked and all has led to suffering.
    • The democratic republic we have has never been tried in the history of the world and it has been a huge success!
  • People can change (are malleable).
    • People are the same. They have been the same for thousands of years.
    • Instead of reading the fantasy that is Karl Marx, read Plato, Aristotle, Aquinas, Locke, Jefferson, Huxley, Orwell, Dostoyevsky, Twain, Solzhenitsyn and, of course, the Bible.
    • Human beings never change. They are always the same. They never change. They cannot change.
    • Because people do not change, that’s why collectivism and socialism never work and always lead to tyranny.
    • Collectivism doesn’t work because we are a group of individuals.
  • Rich people are evil and exploit the worker.
    • Straight out of Marx.
    • In capitalism, rich people who steal are thrown in prison.
    • In capitalism, rich people who become rich legally do so through innovation, making society better.
      • Musk, Bezos, Gates and Winfrey have made life better for all of us. We know this because we pay them. They don’t “steal” anything.
      • We buy it.
      • Every person in our society can be a Winfrey or Musk. The question is why we don’t become that. Hint: It’s usually not because we don’t have the money.
      • Capacity does matter and we shouldn’t be jealous of someone’s greater capacity.
  • We can all live a fulfilling life without working.

When this entire argument comes up, the first thing I always ask is what civilization is better. One answer I get almost alway is the American Indians. You already know what I think of them. Then I hear about Africa. I point out Africa is a continent, not a civilization and they have tremendous amounts of slavery and genocide and most countries are in perpetual cirl war.

The reality is there is no answer. In fact, no one answers China or Russia, the top socialist countries. No one says Mexico, Central America, or South America. Those areas suck so bad, people are trying to break into our country.

The reality is, these anti-American jerkoffs don’t know what they’re talking about.

      • We expected a lot more violence due to the calls for it in the Middle East.

    • So far, no one was killed but several soldiers were injured.
    • Iran seems to be getting a little nervous since they are being easily overwhelmed but they continue their sabre-rattling.
  • Finally, carjackers tried to steal an SUV in Washington D.C.
    • This should be no surprise since there have been 800 carjackings in Washington D.C. this year.
    • The SUV belonged to Secret Service while they were escorting Hunter Biden’s daughter.
    • A shootout occurred and the felons ran away.
    • It must be nice for the Bidens to have their own security forces.
