On Friday's show HBO Real Time host Bill Maher excoriated the left for turning the Democratic party into a party that "protects feelings" and always demands apologies for being offended. Maher addressed popular liberal complaints such as self-loathing, complaints of "cultural appropriation," and fat-shaming. Maher said while people were caring too much about feelings, we let a "mad man" win the White House.



On the account of cultural appropriation, Maher joked, "what do you think you are, some kind of melting pot?"



Maher cited several examples where Hollywood stars had to apologize for saying something that may have offended people, namely Michael Keaton confusing and conflating two prominent black feature films and Chris Hemsworth dressing up as a Native American before Halloween.



"While you self-involved fools were policing the language at the Kids' Choice Awards a mad man talked his way into the White House," Maher said.



From the 'New Rules' segment on the January 27th edition of Real Time (content warning):





BILL MAHER: While the sting of defeat is still fresh and the horrors resulting from that defeat pile up, liberals must examine all the reasons why we keep losing elections, starting with Democrats have come from the party that protects people to the party that protects feelings. From 'ask not what your country can do for you,' to 'you owe me an apology.'



Republicans apologize for nothing; Democrats for everything. Can't we find a balance?...



The majority of Americans actually are with the Democrats on the issues. Raising the minimum wage, sensible gun laws, path to citizenship, abortion rights, pro-environment, you name it, but we keep losing. Now, there's a lot of reasons for that but the one that we can immediately fix is that too often Democrats remind people of a man who has taken his balls out and put them in his wife's purse.



And, please, someone tweet me right now and tell me how that was somehow inappropriate so I can tell you to go fuck yourself.



At the Golden Globes this month, Michael Keaton mixed up the titles of two movies that had a black cast -- Hidden Figures and Fences and said 'Hidden Fences.' Because he's a Klansman. Cue the outrage. Cue the retraction: 'I screwed up... it makes me feel so badly that people feel badly. If somebody feels badly, that's all that matters.' No, that's not all that matters. In fact, things like this don't matter at all. What matters is while you self-involved fools were policing the language at the Kids' Choice Awards a mad man talked his way into the White House.



What matters is that while liberals were in a contest to see who could be the first to call out fat-shaming the tea party has been busy taking over school boards. Stop protecting your virgin ears and start noticing that you're getting fucked in the ass.
