Bill Maher humiliated Hollywood A-listers calling them out for their hypocrisy and cowardice on his hit HBO show Real Time. Maher came clean about a secret meeting he had with a ‘who’s who of A-listers and stars’ at a major producer’s mansion.
The topic was cancel culture and how to fight back against it. They all agreed the left censoring speech is a disaster and needs to stop. That the same people shoving this garbage down our throats secretly admit it is a major problem that needs fixing should not surprise you but it is troubling.
And Maher was right to call it out. Bill said: “About a year and a half ago I was asked to moderate a discussion at the home of a very prominent Hollywood producer and the attendees that night was a who’s who of a-listers and stars… if a bomb went off in that room there’d be nothing on TV next year but well let’s just say it would be a great year for Kevin Sorbo.
“I can’t say exactly who was there but if there really is a Jewish space laser these guys have the codes, anyway the subject we all wanted to talk about that night was cancel culture.
“It’s funny, if this was 10 years ago this group would have been talking about censorship from the right, back then it was the Jerry Falwells and Pat Robertsons.
“But there’s no getting around the fact that what was on the mind of the liberals that night in Brentwood or wherever we may have been was that the most powerful witch hunters now were coming from Twitter, the Ivy League, and the progressive left.
“JK Rowling used to be a villain to the right because she wrote books about witchcraft, now she’s a villain to the left because she has the crazy belief that there’s more to being a woman than pronouns and lipstick.
“That was the point of the evening, how do we take a stand against cancel culture and I suggested since we were mostly all in show business that we start an award show to honor the brave people who have fought back.
“Well, I got to tell you the idea was met with great enthusiasm by everyone and in short order different people were suggesting the ways that their varied talents could be put to use.
“And then of course being Hollywood nothing happened
“But it’s still a good idea so I’m gonna do it right here right now.”
Bill Maher told a great story Friday night about an A-list Hollywood shindig where all the beautiful people were railing against cancel culture. They didn’t have the balls to follow through, but Bill certainly did — with the first annual COJONES AWARDS!!! https://t.co/REJQzGgtaw
