It's also triggering that the bad guys in movies are not portrayed by actual criminals
Thats why the left wants all the prisoners released here, and all the prisoners from 150 other countries. To act.
Clever!
Some are actual criminals. Including the actors who play the heroes. Case in point, Armie Hammer… for one…
Well, there was George Raft.
Hunter has a new career l.
As a non actor, I find it very offensive when actors play non actors. It's truly the worst form of appropriation. Those roles should be reserved exclusively for us, as non actors are severely under represented in pop culture as a whole, and especially in movies and series. SOMEONE NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT!!
As an actor- we don’t really care
And obviously nobody gives a s***
You're probably left it and gay
@@LevonAllen13 Don’t you mean as an anchor, you don’t really think Mr. Burgundy?
🤣👏🏼
Don't even get me started about Earthlings playing Kryptonians and Vulcans! Krypton Face!!
Can't wait for the Kareem Abdul Jabbar biopic starring Peter Dinklage 😂
Now that's a stretch.
😁
“ This is regression” …. nailed it!! Bravo!! This absolutely needed to be said!!
Bill dumbed down a nuanced topic out pique and mean-spiritedness, so he contributed to the regression.

@@andrewedris2800 Thanks! English is my first and only language! Wish I knew others….never a disadvantage, imo!
Thanks Bill for being the only person with a large platform to have the balls to keep it real by reminding people what it means to be progressive!
That's odd because republicans have been anti-woke since day one. Billy is jumping on the train 2 years later and gets applauded as courageous 🤣
i am not really up on what 'progressive' means but i dont find bill maher to be progressive
This has nothing to do with courage. It has everything to do with fear of his audience leaving him.He is in show biz and so are the casting directors. Casting directors choices are based on what brings in the biggest audience. Maher's monologues are also written with this in mind. Its all about money.
@@peterstafford4426 exactly. I was thinking the very same thing.
He sees the Winds of politics changing. The progressive left are no longer as popular as they were, he knows that and is switching the messages in his monologues to appeal to the new demographics.
Funny, when an overwhelming majority of people who complain about cultural appropriation are self-proclaimed progressives
Love this guy for 2 reasons:
1. He makes me laugh
2. Even when I don't agree with him, I almost always have to admit that he's making a good point
Totally agree.
REGRESSiON is the answer! of COURSE! why didn't i think of that? bring on the sparklers and the drag queen story hour!
He uses logic and humorous hyperbole to point out the obvious rational truth as he sees it. Nobody has to agree with his entire truth, but more people should be like that in the news and politics.
Using logic that is, instead of tapping into peoples primal emotional centers, which is very manipulative… Oh, wait now I know why.
Thank you Bill for being so honest we need this to keep our sanity in this crazy world..
Thank you for calling out Leguizamo for lashing out and exposing hypocrisy.
He is always fos
I really love Johnny Legs, but Bill was right
This show is a beacon of reason and sanity. Thanks to you Bill and to your entire team!
This was Maher's greatest - remember this? ruclips.net/video/-vYVDPbL_EA/видео.html
I love Bill❤
@Bimon Soliver - Sometimes it is.
I agree, but please, don’t cast anyone but an Australian to play an Australian. Everyone else butchers the Aussie accent.
You need to expand your knowledge if you think Hollywood is the beacon of reason and sanity. This is a Hollywood problem not an America problem. Hollywood is not progressive nor the standard for progressives. Hollywood is a corporation that sells entertainment, but for some reason some among them decided to preach as if they are prophets. Ego and fame gone to their heads. They are not prophets, they are not progressive, just entitled rich tax cheats who need to shut up and act. And Bill Maher is one of them. You are a comedian Bill. Make jokes, and leave it at that because your understanding of real society is is your biggest joke.
Thank you for this refreshing and frank perspective. I wish others would listen and take this common sense to heart. I have no interest in going to movies anymore. They’ll just keep wondering why movies are failing. 🤷♀️🤦♀️.
Exactly. Boycott Hollywood, don't give them a single cent for the degeneracy they've come to produce.
I don't always agree with Bill, but when I do it's usually stuff like this where, apart from many of our leaders and elites apparently, everyone with a brain can clearly see it's wrong. In fact, I'm pretty sure people like Hanks know it too, he's just not brave enough or too money hungry to stand up to the bullies.
They'll blame it on racism. 🙄
One of Rock Hudson's first roles was as an indian in Winchester '73. It was a GOOD if short role.
Brilliant, Bill. You and Ricky Gervais seem to be the only guys with any stones to call out this nonsense. It would have been awesome if Tom Hanks called out this absurdity as well, but apparently he's too afraid of getting cancelled. Same with Eddie Redmayne.
As a gay man, I’m glad that Tom played Andrew Beckett. For a straight man to play a gay man in the early 90s had a lot of stigma to it, but to play a gay man with AIDS…that took guts. Tom was able to bring that character to life, and portray the crucial problem of rampant discrimination against both during that time, irrespective of his actual personal life.
And if the movie was made now we could get Lee Pace or any number of actual gay men to play the part. That’s what Bill doesn’t get. It helped us get one of our stories told but now we don’t need straight people pretending to be us on screen.
New rule: People who use sentences that start with "as a - insert identity politics" cannot be taken seriously. You try to gain authority and relevance by using your irrelevant sexuality to make your argument. If you can't make your argument without bringing in labels you didn't make an argument. Is your statement any less when you ditch your self-proclamation?
@@19031589 100 % agree. Straight actors will only play straight characters. And gay actors will only play gay characters on screen. See how long the likes of you will accept that lane before you need to feel special again.
@@steffihaas7490 Yes. It was totally relevant and if you don’t get that you’re a clueless idiot.
@@steffihaas7490 “the likes of us” needed to feel special to counteract what hundreds of years of being told were wrong and disgusting. It’s not a vanity thing. Its righting a wrong in the hopes that people like us stop suffering silently or committing suicide because Christian society tells us we shouldn’t be this way.
This reminds me of a story about Laurence Olivier and Dustin Hoffman in the the movie, The Marathon Man. In order to portray his character being up all night running for a scene, Dustin Hoffman did exactly that, stayed up all night running around the city. The morning they were shooting it, he was all proud of having done that and told Sir Laurence because he wanted to impress his idol. Sir Laurence just looked at him and said, "You're an actor, why waste your sleep when all you have to do is act?"
😄
Your analogy is kinda relevant to this discussion....two different schools of acting. Hoffman is a Method actor while Sir Olivier was not!
Anyone teaching the LIE of monetary tithing, selling the gospel in any way, collecting money for ministering in any way whatsoever, anyone teaching same sex marriage is a sin when it is NOT, rich people, unrepentant rapists, lying police people, corrupt judges, and all other unrepentant evil people will be in the GREAT TRIBULATIONS - begins September 1 of this year! That includes anyone listing cashapp links and other bank account links on their youtube channel or asking for donations.
Lev. was translated wrong billy graham. Refering to pedophilia. "Men shall not molest young boys."
Delete or reject the messages sent from the messenger of Malachi 3:1 and you reject Jesus Christ Herself and choose to die with the wicked.
Malachi 2 proves Malachi 3:8 is prophetic instruction for the thieving church leaders to bring back the money they were never supposed to take for ministering and God will end Covid. Every major church around the world knew this since August of 2020 but they LOVE MONEY so much they chose to kill everyone with Covid instead of returning it!
James 5:2 Rich people are NOT Christians and the wealth they selfishly kept to themselves will only be used as evidence to burn them.
The 2 witnesses are righteousness and judgement, not actual people. There is no ONE antichrist; it was made up by people that worship money.
Stay out of the fake churches or you will die with them and their lies. In order to be a church, the place must house people inside it. Otherwise it's another private money-making business serving satan and part of Babylon.
There is no such thing as rapture. Jesus comes back to rule. God's people are caught up spiritually...
Romans is not referring to Eunuchs where one partner is transgender.
Mathew 19:12
🏳️🌈 Eunuchs that are born that way are transgender. It's even in the Bible. Yes, the bible was written by bigoted men and is way outdated and was changed and should be thrown out. But even Jesus spoke about transgender people. Eunuchs made that way by others were abused (it doesn't happen to everyone that is abused). Those that choose to live like Eunuchs FOR THE SAKE OF THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN are bisexual people that choose partners of the same sex characteristics but opposite in regards to gender. Notice, God PREFERS for people to be in LGBT relationships.
Eunuchs are same sex couples. One partner is transgender. Transgender is when someone is born with a gender opposite the sex characteristics normally associated with that gender. God made us male or female, determined by gender, located in the brain.
Your gender is located in your brain and determined at birth. I have an identical twin sister that is female in gender. I am male in gender.
I am Elijah of Malachi 4:5-6 and that means any discrepancies in the bible are ultimately decided by me. Plus, it states in Deuteronomy that nobody was castrated back then. And that doesn't make sense anyhow. No one is born castrated and no one is born making the decision to be celibate. But, that is what God wanted the lying preachers to think so they wouldn't take it out of the bible. Intersex people still have one gender or another because gender is located in your brain.
And Acts 3:22-23 says it will come to pass that anyone that fails to listen to me will be utterly destroyed from among the people. So anyone that says different than this won't be here much longer. It's everyone's choice.
Anyone teaching the LIE of monetary tithing or getting paid in any way to minister will also die with the wicked.
Peter 2:9 says we are ALL ministers . . . .
Jesus was transgender and will return as a woman.....
Remember, Malachi 3:8-12 is talking to the thieving church leaders. It's the answer to end Covid and every major church around the world has known this since August of 2020 but they LOVE MONEY so much, they INTENTIONALLY CHOSE to kill everyone instead of returning it. My preaching will lead to a universal monthly income for everyone. If church leaders dont repent, they won't be here to see it. Their choice . . . .. ..

I think he said "my body, why dont you try acting?"
i guess Hoffman goes the extra mile
"To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything! Julie Newmar."
I'll just leave that here about John Leguizamo's statement.
The Johnny Depp pirate part and Mel Gibson part killed me 😂🤣😂 love how Bill Maher keeps it down to earth. He can be a bit smug and a little biased sometimes but man, does he hit the bull's-eye!! Love hearing his take on current events
Well said!
Comedy is getting easier when everything is a joke and this was all so accurate it's hilarious
Comedy is getting harder. It’s dying because of shitlibs.

@@solarnaut Another must see; Maher's BEST INTERVIEW here; ruclips.net/video/-vYVDPbL_EA/видео.html
You know things are getting weird when a conservative Christian feels like Bill Maher is in their corner. Keep it up, Bill!
Steadily well over a decade in time.
It was always there growing in university’s. But yes a agree with you, it’s certainly escalating
It's even weirder when Christian right-wingers like me would rather watch Bill Maher than Fox News. I love how anti-corporate Maher is. I'd much prefer this to pandering on either side
Bill Maher is just a right winger. He's a Zionist islamaphobe and out of touch neoliberal elitist democrat shill.
@@sivad1025 there's nothing anti-corporate about being a partisan democrat like Bill. I've never heard critique Joe Brandon b4.
OMG, that "Scissor-hands" joke was so funny!
Maher and his writers get an 11/10 for this segment! Laden with pertinent examples, quotes and Bill’s fearless but humorous critique of this tragic social malaise.
His writers ripped me off 14 years ago.
@@uverpro3598 oh poor you...
@@emillyyelen5169 Yes, it was a real injustice. Why you find that worthy of condescension, I have no idea.
@@uverpro3598 I had a Daily Show writer, who followed me on Twitter, put one of my jokes in Trevor's mouth less than 48 hour later.
I asked him if I could get credit and he blocked me. So I forwarded my tweet to the daily show and emailed them. never heard anything.
Wonder if that "Writer" still works there?
Sadly most of those voicing this out was deemed 'far right' and were cast of out of mainstream media years ago. So, do applaud Bill for raising most of the anti-woke bits, but he's no way a pioneer nor brave
Bill is about the only well-known commentator whose political and social platform is simply "we should be doing what makes sense and not doing what doesn't", and I appreciate him for that.
actually you are describing quite a few conservative platforms, and no not trumpers conservatives. Marc Dice, Black conservative perspective, and Officer Tatum.
I'll stick to doing whatever I feel like not what this garbage tells you.
@@raymondlassor7155 no way that is correct. Conservative outlets present a very biased and extreme view. They present one side of a divisive culture war. This subject is pretty nonpartisan. It's a small slice of Americans that are outspoken against actors playing which roles. Most Dems and Repubs don't make that an issue. Filmmakers are just scared of that outspoken Twitter crowd because when even just 1,000 people make a huge deal it gets picked up by all news sources, right and left, because it gets the clicks and that negative attention is unwanted by them. Not a single Democrat I know cares about who plays what role. Conservative media actually makes it a bigger issue than the left does because criticizing Hollywood is central to their politics.
@@OliverandHisDad have you seen the clips Mark Dice does about the actors not playing politically correct roles for them? Or the ones that have ben Shapiro talks about how ridiculous it is? All the ones were also Tatum's talking about that? Or all the other numerous conservative people discussing how ridiculous this cancel cultures getting? Or the lady that was canceled by Disney from that Star wars spinoff that Ben Shapiro hired for her new TV series? But I guess I could be wrong I think her name was Gina something. So I suppose it's the conservatives after all. I guess next you'll say biden's the greatest president ever and Trump had terrible results, right?
What makes sense to him. In this case, I agree with him.
Hate it when they don’t cast real superheroes as superheroes in superhero movies or monsters in monster movies.
Andy Garcia played an Italian in The Untouchables and Cliff Curtis played a Mexican in Training Day.
I never complained when I found out that they didn't share the same backgrounds as their characters.
I'm not a casting director, but in my opinion, when you are looking for the best actor for a role, all that matters is that they look the part and play it well.
As long as they do try to "look the part". The problem with black actors portraying white HISTORICAL characters is that people are then determined that person was black.
@@kitsiewr Well they shouldn't. First Anne Boleyn and now Cleopatra. Next they might be going after Jesus.
Bill is absolutely correct. When outside forces, especially politics, controls art and the creation of it, art becomes contaminated and winds up either propaganda or garbage.
Eve if grant you this stupid point, bill is still wrong because he's acting like this started in the "woke era" when it has always been this way, it just benefited white people so it wasn't a problem to him.
A proof would be apply bills arguments 100 years ago to birth of a nation, he's saying its ok to do black face because there are no "good" black actors l, I wonder if slavery and not being allowrd to read and write played a part in that.
I left the left because of creeping wokeness
Art can't please everyone. It was never meant to please everyone.
More gay people have played straight characters in the history of Hollywood. This is a fact. Are we going to dump all movies with Rock Hudson, Anthony Perkins, Greta Garbo, Cary Grant, Joan Crawford, and Cesar Romero...just to name just a few?
Bill Maher is completely missing the point here. The point is not about certain people appropriating certain roles. It's about white actors/actresses are able to get all the roles they do not represent, whether it is as native americans, arabians, asians, aliens, tibetans, egyptians, hawaiians or people with scissor-shaped hands. Guess how diversified the roles Asian-looking actors could actually have in an American film? In Hollywood, people who look like an Indian (from India) can only play Indians who speak English with an accent. A Chinese-looking man could only play East Asian roles and that's pretty much the sum of his career oppotunity. An industry that allows a white women to portray a Hawaiian in a country that has a million of REAL Hawaiians is committing not only cultural appropriation but also a disturbing case of racial discrimination.
When Hollywood hires people for leading roles they’d hire mainly white actors from across the globe - from uk to Australia to South Africa, Ireland, Canada and Europe. It does seem that Hollywood is not just an American industry but essentially a “white” industry that is committed to storytelling from “the white perspective”. If you are white you get the role, it doesn’t matter if you ‘re not even an American. That, for me, is disconcerting. Some influential directors, like Ridley Scott, are unabashedly “old school” he just refuses to tell a story unless it’s through white actors. He recruited an Australian man to play the pharaoh in Exodus and a white English boy to play a jewish child-god. His latest film Alien Covenant depicts a major space expedition in a hundred years time but there is just one non-white “token” black actor in the whole crew. It’s not even realistic, it’s almost embarrassing. Of course, the future of space expedition should be told once again from the white angle alone.
This is one of the best real time you've ever made. I think the problem is the stronger someone believes in something, the less reasonable they become when it doesn't have to be like that. This segment makes so much sense to me.
Why does everyone play Nazis when there are so many germans!?
Even as a conservatives, I agree. This is one of the best monologues I've seen all my life.
3 cheers for Bill Maher!
Not a hardcore Bill fan - but this is a masterpiece
Thanks Bill for having the guts to say it all, loud and clear. We want art. Not politics.
Bill Maher pulled a red herring with this piece. Bill Maher spoke as a man truly clueless of the history of Hollywood.
White actors have received nearly every role in the history of Hollywood. Even roles as characters that were not white! Hollywood is a white dominated industry. If a non-white actors gets a role it's nearly always a stereotypical role, while white actors get to play "diverse" roles? White actors get to play the hero, but black actors get to play an angry black person roles? A white actor gets to play a kung fu master, but an asian actor plays a socially inept nerd?
Also for a longtime white Hollywood passed up non-white actors for non-white roles! Bruce Lee got past up for the show Kung Fu because he was "Too Asian"? Desi Arnez argued with white producers, who thought Desi Arnez as too Cuban to be a husband in an multiethnic marriage for "I Love Lucy"?
Ellen DeGeneres' show was cancelled in 1998 after coming out as gay? But straight actors can play gay characters and receive little to no consequences?
Bill Maher should've thought harder! Hollywood has always played politics!
Aaaaaamennnnnn
@@freeform7012 Hollywood is in the USA, the USA has always been a majority "white" country. Should we protest Bollywood for their lack of white representation?

@@markfrost2707 I'm not bothered by who may or may not agree with what's expressed in this clip. At this point it's enough to know that one presenter - and/or presumably a crew of writers - are able to see factual sense, even if it's only ocassionally.

An actor by definition is someone whose profession is pretending to be someone else, not just be him/herself. Good acting is when the actor does it convincingly.
You hit it out of the park with this one. So true on every point.
Thanks for speaking 100% what most of us are thinking. All should have the given right to audition if they fit the profile and criteria, but the role should go to the best actor for the job.
On point!
Bill Maher is absolutely on fire lately. With all of the motivation of Dr. Frankenstein trying to destroy his own creation.
Like you, Charles, I believe in meritocracy.
When Morgan Freeman was cast as "Red" in The Shawshank Redemption, it wasn't because he was black but because he was the best actor for that role & had the perfect voice to help tell the story. Originally, the character of Red was Irish & got his name because of his red hair.
"Get busy livin' or get busy dyin'... your hair red, cuz BLIMEY STARS AND GREEN CLOVERS, LEAVE ME POT OF GOLD BE, HOY CHEE CHOY CHEE CHOY, AM I IRISH ENOUGH FOR YE, TWITTER???" -- Morgan Freeman
He was not playing an Irish person. He was playing a black man. Are you high? He wasn’t speaking like an Irish man. You need to stop with you bs. Fidel Castro is a non white person. They could find a non white person to play him.
And now you can't picture anyone else playing the character but him.
@@commandercaptain4664

Excellent points so well made. Thank you, Bill Maher. I love rational ideas well expressed.
We are so apart politically but so alike with common sense. Keep talking Bill, weather I agree with you or not.
Acting used to mean pretending to be a person you are not. Now it means pretending to be someone who is already exactly like you.
brilliantly put!
There’s a difference between Twitter and the real world. We need to do what we can to keep it that way.

@@queenc2144 Also, you're right, there is also the "Maga Crowd", who have a some people who are nut jobs. There's always 2 sides to every coin.
Except, in this particular case of "extremism" and "BLATANT lies and "hypocrisy", anyone with a conscience or morals can see which group of people is an ACTUAL threat and has been for YEARS now. Then there's the other side of nut jobs, who are lifted up on a pedestal and used for a multi year political stunt.
Sure don't remember the last time I had to worry about being attacked/assaulted/or worse by some "DRUMPF Supporter" anytime there's a "mostly peaceful protest" going on somewhere that I happen to be that day.

Life can be strange. 😏
Being a proud Brit, one of my favourite books is the Hitchhiker Guide to the Galaxy series. In the Books & BBC TV series, Ford Prefect was portrayed/played as a white man with an English accent. In the film, Mos Def plays him. They were both fantastic, because 2 great actors defined the character in their own ways.
Thank you, Bill, for being the voice of reason in a truly messed up industry.
He's a little late to the party and so are the rest of his fans.
He's late..this revolution start years back

It’s fine for Tom Hanks to play Gump , because they have so much in common!😂
As an actor, I couldn’t get more behind this. I agree 100%. People need to let actors be actors as we should let comedians be comedians. If you don’t do that, it’s a complete disservice to art and blinds us from seeing the best actor/actress for the role and impeccable talent on screen.
So Franco is the best actor for the role ? Get outta here. Franco is a shitty over actor. Btw, love your narrative of the best person for the role… very typical of 90s white men complaining about non-whites getting a job at their level…all you need to include is affirmative action and you’ll be set.
I couldn't agree more!👍 I've missed out on several roles recently because of Politically Correct box tickers.
I've been always saying it. I have been wanting to do acting and directing and I rather it'd be by merit not by race etc as the "I'm so offended" crowd has done. This whole "we want inclusion but we want people to stay in their own lane" deal is so stupid.
It's not about appropriation or identity It's all about pushing out straight white males from hollywood.
@@sdfilmproductions4193 And it's been that way for a while...
It's all coming to a point... Reasonable people have just about had enough with this BS. Can you feel it in the air around you?
Absolutely. This is getting too fucking stupid.
100% The red pill is starting to kick in. Finally.
Bill Maher voted for the guy who used his last 4 years to finish the “fundamental change” of the arts, media, and entertainment sector that led us down this path 🤷🏽
There isn’t a corner of the sectors where one can go to just get a compartmentalized experience like it once was; which was people- generally- joined by their particular practical contributions to a project or program with no regard for politics or social preference.
One can only hope you’re right that people are turning away. I feel like it’s losing a bit of steam amongst my friends who are Woke. A bunch of them are beginning to question it and I’m like finally.
Too little too late. The damage is done. These Frankfurt School Proselytes targeted our children years ago. Now they're just waiting for those who disagree to die out.
Bill M is funny, but he gave up any credibility or respect. He enables it. He supports the very people who have led this disastrous philosophy, and doesn't have the courage to do anything but talk about it. Hes just banking on the people fighting against it so he can line his pockets.
Bill you crazy man. You are fantastic well done
At some point left, right and middle that can still think clearly have to come together and with loving hearts say Enough. This madness has to end.
This popping up could not have been timelier. My 12-year-old just got turned down for the role of Medda in a community theater group because her Hispanic skin was not dark enough. She "blew them away" and was "phenomenal", but they couldn't give her the role that she earned and worked her butt off for. I don't blame the theater; I blame those that complained before about another show and ruined it for her.
My heart is saddened to hear her loss of a role. Though tell her to keep going and hold her head up high.

You bring up a perfect point. Giving a role to someone purely based on ethnicity is pure discrimination. Funny the one thing they “claim” to fight against. The woke today are in essence the magicians of our time. Everything done is done with a slight of hand. We’re the party of acceptance, while we accept nothing of the other party. Straight up mind bending!
@@richardrole2654 How do you know that she didn't work her butt off for it? You weren't there, and are speaking out of line.
When Bill became the VOICE OF REASON, I knew were were in big trouble.
MUCH RESPECT, BILL !!!
He has pretty consistently pointed out Hypocrisy. It's just that polarization has now created so much more.
I don’t know why people keep commenting this on his videos, he’s been like this for a long, long time
Lucious Skywalker-because Bill wasn’t always like this. For a long time he was a smug liberal. He can get like that sometimes still, but he’s not afraid now to call out this bullshit, on BOTH sides of the political aisle.
We are in such an embarrassing time in history … it’s beyond words.
Very well put, in a witty way.
As always Bill is so on point and calls out all the bullshit, thank you for that
Exactly what I think
Yet he supports those that have put this in place. He's adding BS to the pile, and then whining about it.
@@RichardChappell1 doesn’t disprove op’s comment
He literally just started being a normal person. So I give him credit for changing but he still rode the wave for a long time.
So a white guy can play Obama ?
Thank you for staying sane in an insane world.
To be clear It's the liberals who are pushing this crap.
sanity when the conditions are "safe" is no sanity
GOLD!! Thank you for the sanity.
Amazingly insightful!
Another spot-on bit. I'm glad to see Bill continuing to use his platform to speak obvious truths that for some non-obvious reason nobody else seems willing to say aloud.
It’s these stars that can afford to turn down a role that can afford to virtue signal.
Bill is awesome, unless it effects him. Then it's wrong no matter what.
He's right that it's stupid, but it's a kind of a waste of a New Rules segment.
1. Race / sexuality pressure groups need publicity to maintain their funding streams. How do they do that? Attack a celebrity actor for performing a role that doesn't match their race / sexuality.
2. Media companies in desperate need of 24 hour content to push out, write up the pressure group attack on the celebrity actor and call it a news story.
3. Minor actors in need of a social media following to stay relevant support the pressure groups.
4. Bill gets angry.
Do you agree with race swapping in movies?
There’s 8 billion people- you have no idea what the fuch people are saying. You’re just jock ridding for someone who agrees with YOU. Just stop with the pointless jargon
Thanks for continuing to call out the hypocrites and for your help in the preservation of common sense 👍
"It sounds like something Mel Gibson says at a trafficstop!" I just can't get enough of your videos Bill!
Absolutely...this is great!
I have a hard time laughing at this. It's like it's not a joke anymore. It's too true to be funny. I'm just happy he still has the courage to open his mouth about it.
As a straight hairstylist 42 years I'm convinced the gay men and women I proudly worked with all those years are absolutely appalled at all the negative attention coming their way . They worked very hard to be accepted for who they are and were successful in that effort. Now, their movement has been highjacked by crazies.
@@tc559 Tracy your comment in no way connects to the one you're replying too. It just shows how simple-minded you are. I feel sorry for you and your family.

😂 just GOLD! Bill at his impeccably logical best!
On point, well said.
Great monologue. People tend to forget that acting is, after all, the art of deception; I don't care how many of your own features and personality traits are shared with the character who you're playing, as long as you can make me believe you ARE the character. As an audience, I don't care if you are jewish or gay or a doctor, or a poet. I just want to be tricked into BELIEVING you are.
According to a recent PEW survey, typical hollywood movies cast actors in 100% of roles. Shocking under representation of non-actors :(
There's nothing I *HATE* more than a gay jewish doctor who dabbles in poetry in their spare time.
@@umwha
Isn’t it hypocritical to say that free speech is a right, but only when Bill Maher agrees with the speech? Piers Morgan said that free speech is for people who disagree with you. That includes disagreeing with the establishment. If conservatives get free speech, so do the woke people. Free speech includes woke speech.
@@giantsr1eva Nobody is rebuking anyones right to speak. He's just satirising and criticising the content of their speech, and lamenting that their ideology is dominant and consequential in the media industries and our culture currently.
@@giantsr1eva Free speech & cancel culture are diametrically opposed, so you can put away your woke victim card.
Bill gets 100% for this piece. He nailed it.
Fabulous and right on!
Bill Maher is right on the money, as always. One of the reasons to keep my HBO subscription.
As an actor, I love this. It needs to be said, over and over again.
His punchline at the end is one of the BEST I've ever heard!
Well played!
That was definitely a gut buster.
Bill, I have come to appreciate what you have to say. Thank you.
In high school, I wrote a book report on 'Black Like Me'. I enjoyed the experience.
This has got to be in the top five best monologues Bill Maher has done.
"It sounds like something Mel Gibson says at a traffic stop" had me howling
Wow Bill 👍 Beautifully said.
Bill is so refreshing.
Bill Maher always makes so much logical sense.
Great job exposing the all-around hypocrisy no matter where or who it originates from.
But there's some of us out here in fly-over country that see Bill as several years behind us. He's now saying what we were ridiculed for saying, sometimes even by himself, before he came to his senses. Does that count for anything on our behalf?
Of course not. We're still just the evil Trump supporters, or backward stubborn "racists" for refusing to accept the newest BS from the pervert crowd that can't afford to stay as whatever they were last year, forever discovering newer "woker" territory that soon enough becomes the next laughing stock, or tragedy, like the kids getting sex hormones and surgery because they're still at the age where their imagination outperforms their common sense, while the adults doing it to them will witness their profound sorrow in the years to come.... and many already are.
I don't watch much. Wow this world has gone to shit the last 5 years hahaha
Piers Morgan struggling to contain himself during Bill's monologue. That's how you host a show, Piers!
I was expecting him to interrupt Bill.
Thanks, Mr. Maher! Applause. Nobel Prize for Literature goes to you.
Thank you
Bill you are on a roll. You are doing a great job with lessons on common sense and funny doing it. Keep up the good work. You even have your studio audience clapping and laughing. It gives me hope that the whole country is not going nuts.
Bill has been hitting it out of the park lately. These are subjects we can ALL agree with, left or right. Keep fighting the good fight.
+Matt Well, no. The right hates everyone in Hollywood except Dean Kane, Kevin Sorbo, Kristi Swanson, and Kirsti Alley.
I actually kind of feel the opposite. I used to like BM. But now he kinda waivers all over and his show feels like it's degraded into what's annoying him that day. After his new rules lately, I usually just say....who cares?
I like your points. I don’t think certain individuals on the left go for this shit at all thought. There rhetoric leaves them in a hollow shell only with other virtues signalers.
@@nicolausharvot3825 I agree with you in general. Problem is to me that guys like BM spend 15 minutes complaining about stuff they could just as easily ignore. Then they attach this to "the left" when I don't think anyone really cares that much. I dunno. I hear a lot about what people don't like but not much about how to deal with it and that bugs me no matter your "side". Appreciate you sharing your thoughts
What exactly is left vs right .I'm asking because they both flip flop just like humans constantly bending over backwards for some stupid tribe .It's all the same .I'm not even arguing its just so ...never mind.
Bill, you get it right so, so often!
I was constantly like, "Boom!"
Italian Plumber😂😂😂 'Its a Meee'! 😅
As a strong liberal that values the environment, inclusion, and the woman’s right to choose, the woke part of liberalism is leaving me behind. Thank you Bill for everything you do. Both parties are being split by extremists.
Woke means an awareness of social or racial injustice.
Right wing spin doctors have successfully redefined all liberal terminology (Antifa, CRT police reformation) into negative connotations. It doesn’t help when hosts like Maher buy into their false narratives.
Woke does not mean political correctness run amuck, which is what Americans really mean to say if they weren’t so dominantly influenced by Conservative propagandists.
Liberals have values?
@@gigglesnschitt2812 Wokism is a mental illness, and you're a part of it.
@@gigglesnschitt2812 No but woke look for and see racism in everything and everywhere to the point of ridiculous. Maher is 100% right
Lol if you voted for any democrats in the last few years your part of the problem. There's no way Biden will last for another term and all the Democrats have besides him is Kamela, and they can't fire her because of her skin color..
Bill , when did you get sooo on point?!? I hadn't heard from you in the last few years , but you have come back as a force for reason !
He was suffering from TDS. He only came out of it when he was reminded there actually ARE worse things than Trump.
BRAVO!!!
thank you
As a person who served in the military , I find it offensive when actors play soldiers . It is cultural appropriation!!!! This should not be allowed !
Hilarious. Similar subject. Who didn't love Robert Downey Jr in Tropic Thunder o7
😉
Elon Musk was right - "Wokeness" is a mind virus. They're going absolutely insane with all of this. It's happening in fiction writing too - you can't write characters of other races without a "sensitivity reader" now. Where does it end?
That made laugh
Yeah but soldiers can't remember their lines. You need to be able to read...
Dropping bombs and facts for these ridiculous times we are living in, you have to call it as it is! Great Job with this one, cheers from Colombia!

I’m convinced Daniel Day-Lewis is actually a statue that only comes to life once it’s been given a script
@@blindoutlaw that's a very intriguing theory. The script has to be presented to his statue form in a closely-guarded ceremony, I'd imagine.
