I am not the world's biggest fan of Bill Maher, but he hit this one out of the park. (I shouldn't have to say this, but for the benefit of anyone who doesn't know who Bill Maher is, yes; there is some salty language in here.)
I am also not Mr. Maher's greatest fan. But you are right that he hit this one out of the ballpark and did so with uncomfortable and salty humor that served well to highlighted the tragedy of our decline as a culture and civilization.
I don't know if America ever really had a truly golden age, but this I do know: we are in a leaden age now, sinking under the weight of our own silliness. And we will regret it.
1) People there do care, all the anti-Asian hate crimes are great fodder for CCP propaganda. 2) That joke would have landed a lot better if he knew the difference between Japanese and Chinese money...
