for years bill maher has been going along with the left on their bs racism republicans climate change blah blah blah and when he has a race hustler like michael eric dyson on he kisses his ass and then the next show he all of a sudden turns into thomas sowell debunking everything dyson had said previously maher and jon stewart among others were part of the reason the crazy left woke mob became so numerous and now the rabid mongrel woke dog that he helped create has come back to attack him he didnt have a problem when they went after the right
Serious question. Did you record this speaking into a plastic cup? How exactly can one achieve such bad audio quality?
Bill is really smart and well informed, relative to his normal audience. But he is very poorly informed in an absolute sense, and Megyn exposed it.
I think a lot of Maher's irrationality is actually willful ignorance. He doesn't take in much of the news.
Or too much news?
Like so many, he believes the wrong people, he believes the liars.
I agree that he doesn't take in much of the news. There are so many topics that he is ignorant about when he's confronted.
His job is to take in the news. Just because someone doesn't want to become conservative doesn't mean there's something wrong with them.
And he works for hbo.
Bill Maher falls into the group of what Scott Adams calls, “stupid smart people.”
Why Smart People Believe Stupid Things: ruclips.net/video/5Peima-Uw7w/видео.html
He has a show and makes lots of money. Stupid people can't do that. He knows exactly what he's doing.
Along with Sam Harris, he is a posterboy for stupid smart people.
@@kwakester Yes...because he's smart...but still stupid at times.
@@kwakester yes they can. every "tonight show" is dumb people making money off of dumb viewers.
I watched the show. I think he has an unusual combination of logic, disagreement with authority, and a contrived ignorance to protect his previous positions.
I saw it too. You summarized him so well.
This is actually a fair assessment.
In his defense ... sitting across from Megyn Kelly he probably had an acute shortage of blood in his brain.
My thought exactly.
😆
Hahaha! Good one!
He lives in Hollywood surrounded by beautiful women. You honestly think he's not capable of doing an interview with one of them? You think he's like a 15 year old boy? 🤦🏼♀️
Maybe conservatives are like this? 🤷♀️
Gad Saad, This is fantastic! I subscribed right away!
Bill Maher has massive TDS
Yup, and he can’t see what it’s doing to the rest of his worldview.
Maher is a juggernaut of smug arrogance.
He definitely is a narcissist like in the clinical sense. You can tell when you watch his podcast where he is just talking.
It must be amazing to have Maher's wisdom and certainty without having to get bogged down in learning and research.
Smarmy
Kinda like Trump
Audio makes it unwatchable
So just listen then
still waiting for his apology to dennis prager he laughed and mocked him and his sycophants in the audience all laughed and then it turned out prager was right
Bill has totally lost the plot. I don't think he understands what is really going on.
Don't be fooled, he knows. It's made him alot of money.
He's baked his brain with weed imho
@@kwakestermaking money doesn't make you smart.
Dan Bongino calls them stupid smart people too.
I'm not so sure. He's been fighting his cognitive dissonance in some uncomfortable TV moments. Dave Rubin was pointing it out in a couple episodes. Maher is a smart guy--he might come around.
I have been watching Maher for many years. He could never stand Trump, so he would never get past his hate. no surprises here. Still the interview was a disappointment.
I am no fan of Justin Trudeau but if you weren't allowed to take your dog for a walk at night in Montreal, that was due to your provincial gov't. We had no curfew in Toronto because that wasn't part of the restrictions imposed by our provincial gov't. There is enough to be mad at Trudeau about without making stuff up.
A technicality. The mindset of shutdown fed on itself. And the top leadership needs to bear responsibility. The responsibilty had a hierarchy: National/Federal -> Provincial/State -> District/County -> Municipal/City. Biden in the US was bad, but Trudeau took it to another level.
Agree. Such smugness indeed.
Like Trump
@@ASMRyouVEGANyet Trump is not smug, he's cocky.
Gad, I love you man, but get a better road microphone pretty please. This is really tough to listen to
Keep up the good fight Gad.
This audio is Gad awful.
This audio is absolutely dreadful. I wanted to listen but after 2 minutes I couldn’t stand it. Please do something about it.
It ain't that bad. I'm listening sans problems.
I like gad Saad, buy jeez! He is long-winded. 10 mins to 'the point I wanted to discuss'.
Maher knows what he’s doing and saying. He just try’s to play the middle. Some days he says correct things and some days he doesn’t. That way he is in the middle.
Exactly. He's paid a very hefty sum of money to do it too. Same with any mainstream media outlet.
Too many give Maher credit for being smart. He is stupid. Megyn proved it.
Problem is there are more than enough stupid people who will believe he's smart. That's why he's rich.
@@kwakester Yep, that is the problem.
I stopped watching "Real Time" back in 2013. I could see how crazy the left was becoming, and that Bill Maher was gladly a part of it all the while saying he's a classical liberal. He is as woke as they come.
Except that he's not
Sound quality - too awful to listen 😢
Do not know or follow Bill Maher at all. From the clips I've seen of him I have not seen anything that would lead any credence to marking him as erudite. He seems to have a better than average vocabulary which some may confuse with intelligence but that is just a collection of one field of knowledge (language) and it follows another misconception that knowledge = intelligence which it does not. (a dictionary has knowledge, but it can't think or draw conclusions). Likewise intelligence does not equate to wisdom which is another area of confusion in many. knowing HOW to do something for example doesn't mean the person understands if they SHOULD.
Perhaps this is splitting hairs, but lets try. I feel the distinction for Trump/Hillary is that Hilary was never President. The power was never hers to transfer. This is maybe the distinction Bill intends to articulate. Going for the jugular on this point seems a little trashy...and he's a comedian. Just saying. xxx
I’d love to see you do an analysis of Destiny.
I second the motion!
What’s after that? Fate? Luck?
(I kid.)
My favorite part is when Maher said he doesn't pick a side. He gave Obama $1 million. I wish Kelly pointed that out.
As my guy Lionel said, Bill Maher doesn’t realize how irrelevant he is!
If he were irrelevant he wouldn't have s popular show
Maher used to be a Comedian. Comedians generally have the ability to SEE the overall picture and make light of it. Maher Joined the Political class and lost himself in the transaction. No longer funny .. not even intelligent given his obvious BIAS and is ultimately no longer relevant!
this is unlistenable but thanks for making it
good content wise but the asmr speak makes me long for self delessionne
Gad there's one singular question of importance that those in the public eye never seem to ask those with TDS. "IF" in fact a president believed that an election was sufficiently corrupted to alter it's outcome, what would you like him/her to do about it, understanding the short time windows between the election and the transfer of office? Should he gloss over it and allow such corruption to thrive? Or should he try to find ways to challenge? I would really like to hear people's genuine response to that question.
One thing you might try is fabricating a lie which undermines the President's entire tenure thus preventing him from properly performing his duties and calling into question his authority to govern at every turn.
Something along the lines of him colluding with a foreign power to win said election therefore making his victory illegitimate.
DJT did say that there was something very wrong with the results, but the deranged left shouted over that and in spite of massive evidence of American, not foreign interference will not change positions. It really is TDS
Well said. Totally agree with you.
I was so happy to hear this analysis. I tried to watch that and his smug dismissiveness really pissed me off so much I couldn’t finish listening to him.
The word we are looking for is dismissive. I went cold into this clip at the time (I watch Megyn Kelly a lot) and I was instantly and instinctively repulsed by his willful ignorance
You found the computer mic I threw away 30 years ago. Glad to see it still, makes noises.
The Gad Father lays it down straight ---> 👍👉💪
Great break down of Maher's psychological illness. Thanks Gad!
Not just his, but that of his audience - who make him rich.
It sounds like Gad is telling us a secret 😂
They're not supposed to rat each other out.
On the Trump/Hillary concession convo, for the left WORDS matter more than ACTIONS.
Dr. Saad - you are the best. Please rip Bill M. a new one.
Bill Maher is a smart fellow. He's also quite funny. And he's a Democrat but has seen the Democrat party move so far to the left that he almost sounds like a conservative. But he still cannot let go of certain left wing tropes. I think he will eventually. However, when I heard him (not necessarily on this video, as I've not listened to the end), that 3 police officers were killed during the January 6 riots, the co-called insurrection,I realized that he still hasn't learned that the left continues to lie about many things. As Megyn pointed out to him, NO police officers were killed. One, officer Brian Sicknick, died the the day later after suffering two strokes (and at his age and with his apparently appearance of good health, we can speculate later as to what might have caused these strokes). There was, however, a person killed at the riots. Her name was Ashli Babbitt. She was unarmed (and a Military Veteran by the way) and shot by a member of the capitol police force. Sure, she had no business climbing into the congressional building through a broken window and should have been arrested. But shot? That Maher is unaware of this whilst still spreading the lie regarding the deaths of three police officers tells me that he has a way to go before he is completely awakened from his remaining left wing bias.
This while having hundreds of compiled hours of police surveillance videos of police escorting these so called insurrectionist.
Btw how many of these insurrectionists got charged with insurrection? We'll never know (it's ZERO).
theyy kylt Roseanne boilynd
He said FIVE police officers were killed on Jan.6th. And I watched all of the interview.
I always thought Bill Maher was one of the most well informed lefties out there... boy was I misinformed...
Were it not for a terminal case of TDS, Bill Maher would be a great old school Democrat. Of course, just like the one Ring... TDS has but one master!
PS> The Kitty keeping an👀for 🦘🥰
LOL One Ring to Rule them All, with the media, academia, and governments being the equivalent to the Dwarf Kings, the Elf Lords and the Kings of men. Fantastic parallel.
20:44 no it's not just 1 womyn. there's also roseanne boiland who was blujend to dyth. there's also someone paleece shoved off a roof. and maybe 2 other ppl paleece syntanced 2 dyth that day.
Gad, it isn’t even about “I conceed. I was beaten fairly and squarely.” It is only about “I conceed.”, because he clearly supports Hillary Clinton’s claim about her loss not being fair and square.
But Gad, Bill Maher would be capable of having a wonderful conversation with Sam Harris.
The smugness/haughtiness meter would go off the charts.
I used to like Bill Mahr many years ago. Over the years, I still like his humor, but I despise his arrogant smugness. I am a former research physicist. My favorite criticism of myself (from others) is, “you change your mind all the time!” Yes. While doing research, I created hypotheses, and as evidence contradicted them, I changed them. I guess I flip-flopped in favor of truth.
My questions are: how do we reach these people? How do we prevent people we know from going down a similar path? Our education system has fallen so abysmally far, and the left has such a stranglehold on the culture, that it would seem to be a project requiring 50+ years. Do we have enough time? Great impromptu bit, Gad, keep up the wonderful work!
25:15 Well, Gad, I don't have any children, either, and I don't think that whether one has or has not children is a guarantor of one's capacity to maintain deontological vs. consequentialist principles. I will hypothesize that having children has an empirical tendency to swing a person's attitude toward manifestly motivated and consequentialist "principles", and I'll leave you to ponder the ways. In fact, I hypothesize that not having children has some tendency to free one for pursuit of truth in contexts in which someone with children may discover conflicts. One ought to study the situation statistically.
I listen to and appreciate your thoughts on various topics in no small part because of your stance on political correctness and "wokeness". I admire bipedal honey badgers for their tenacity, because I'm not a debater in real time. Even though I'm not a fan of philosophy, I like to think about things (but not forever and ever) before I make a decision. Perhaps I'm just not in the core of your target audience; I applaud in spite of myself, not least because of the way you go after arrogance. Those Greeks, though, used to say, "know thyself". A tougher task was never assigned.
Some questions for Bill might be: "do YOU really believe that we have created a system in which the president could conceivably refuse to leave office? How did that happen? How is that different from monarchy? Is it better to quietly leave office, but leave behind all your executive branch appointments to thwart your successor at every turn?"
Dr Saad. Thank you for your insight, BM was surprisingly uninformed.
Despite his TDS being near-record proportions, only beaten by Robert De Niro, Bill Maher is actually kinda important in his niche. As long as he's anti-Trump some people on the left will listen to him, and he keeps pointing out when they are being completely moronic about gender, Islam, etc. That's a message that needs to be put out there.
"Oh come on, you don't really believe that..." could be interpreted as "Everybody knows that..." or what's known as an "appeal to the people", appeal to popularity, "argumentum ad populum". I think I see that in everyday life. What it boils down to is that if the person it's directed to doesn't accept the speaker's "point of view", they won't be invited not just to the speaker's own birthday party, but not to the birthday parties of any of the speaker's friends, either. Because whatever the issue is about, they've already all agreed to "believe" the opposite. It's something I think most of us learn to do somewhere around sixth or seventh grade.
Horrible audio
Gad, i appreciate some of your content but certainly not this video. You criticize Maher, rightly or wrongly, for not acknowledging a truth because of perhaps common psychological faults, and then go on to insult him. In doing so, you are diminishing both yourself and Maher as people, as you are reducing the discussion of truth to one of identity.
It would be far more helpful to engage in a solution oriented examination, that considers epistemological difficulties in the context of biased media and the biases of listeners. Simply stating two of the psychological difficulties is barely a start as it does little to explain why you or anyone may not be a victim as well.
Do you even watch real time ? You’re not very familiar with Mr. Maher’s work are you. What a bizarre choice of media figure to pick a fight with.
The audio is torture enough, can't put Maher on top of it.
Ah. First Impression bias. Price anchoring. And more.
''Orgiastic''
Gad is the only person I have heard use the term.....and many times. I assumed it was a Saadism
Seriously Gad, re-release this video when you can record some decent audio. It’s too much to stare at a picture that’s not moving with that audio quality.
Gad, sir, I loved TPM!! I bought the audio book and have listened to it 3-4 times now.
I caught so many of your points when I watched her show.
The zeroing in on “he never conceded the election” has been a sticking point for me for years now. I imagine had he conceded, it would not have moved Bill’s Hate Trump-O-Meter.
Gad: you better wait till you somewhere decent to record. I had to turn off. Sorry 😞
24:20 Damnit, man, I was taking a drink when you said the part about using Trump posters as a "marital aid"!
It's sad that he prefers to SELECT a narrative instead of make rational decisions based on facts
He makes alot of money doing what he does. He makes himself seem innocent while pushing the agenda of a certain demographic, but in reality, he knows he's pushing their propaganda. Eventually, people outside of that demographic always catch on and he'll have to move on, just like it's always been throughout history.
It seems that Maher is a smart wise guy but his mistake was to limit his trusted sources of information and that keeps him trapped and ignorant. This is why when he hears information that does not align with his sources, he is surprised but rejects it.
Mahar is one of the most selfish and dishonest people who proudly proclaims his non-morality.
Jan 6 anyone? It was hardly a peaceful transition of power.
what a pity… and I was thinking that Bill Maher was somewhat coming to his senses…
Didn’t the capitol get hit in the head then died later from a complication (ie stroke) ?
Please make a rapper character called SaadBoi
gad saad you are in your own echo chamber.
Trump is smug and arrogant as well, so idk why people who love Trump would have a problem with this behavior type.
Man you were hoping for a reaction with that. And fell flat on your face
Mahrer a head without body.
Great soundbite
Ohh this is gonna be good.
Good one!
Meh.
I mean, if a victim dies in the course of a robbery, the perpetrator will be charged for that, so I could see the officer’s stroke legally being a direct result of the riot. I think he was the one who was crushed a bit and pepper sprayed etc. I could be mixing up the various injured law enforcement from that day, but it gets under my skin when people are dismissive of that officer’s cause of death. I’m guessing he would not have stroked if it was just a usual day of not being crushed a pepper sprayed.
I saw exactly what you discussed, and I'm no psychologist... just someone with a little perception and common sense. Thanks for the summary of my thoughts
A good look at what was a weird interview. After watching the original show, Bill Mahr went even further down in my estimation. Totally divorced from reality
"I'll pull a reason jihad on Bill Maher" 28:24 I was laughing so hard ;)
Thank you so much for fleshing out this man and his aversion to reality. May I suggest you watch his interview with Ben Shapiro. Cheers!
This is why in science the scientific method is so important. It cannot work without free speech. Free speech allows our ideas to be constantly confronted. I made embarassing mistakes in my professional life and was challenged. This neutralises the confirmation bias.
It is easier in the STEM because we hold most of our positions with a lesser degree of uncontrolled emotion.
I should point out that if a smart person holds a contrarian position (Einstein and his EPR paradox), the need to fight such a smart person even if he is ultimately wrong, can lead to a greater understanding of the truth. In the case of the EPR paradox, Einstein was proven wrong but that lead to 3 guys getting a Nobel prize. The fourth one, John Bell, is dead.
8:55
Megyn didn't mock him enough. Mocking is What Bill does retuinely.
I live out the normological network of cumulative evidence. An intentional epistemology is needed for survival these days.
Thanks for your insights!
Keep in mind I love Brett and Heather. "Bill Maher is a heterodox thinker" Brett Weinstein.....
Excellent even among your always top notch content, Gaad.
Gaad - you are the best!!! Btw - have you heard about the two terrorists that shot at the Jewish elementary school in Toronto??
He is an example of the liberal class that I absolutely detest with a passion.
N A A A İ İ İ L L L E D I T !
Bill's the most logical illogical person.
Interesting choice of drug at the end. Lol
Until Bill Maher came along who knew omitting important information was completely different from lying?
He's nothing more or less than a propagandist. The mainstream news does exactly the same thing.
15:10
ASTOUNDINGLY UNHINGED
Bravo to your Truth! 😊
Anyone know the name of the British psychiatrist Gad had an interaction with?
What time frame ? The only British Psychiatrist that I know of, is Theodore Dalrymple (and boooooy I'd love so much to see Gad and him interacting ; he needs to be a guest in Gad's show !).
Brilliant.
