Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.

The following things are not grounds for murder:

Rules:

  1. Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
  2. Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
  3. No bigotry of any kind.
  4. Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
  5. If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
  6. Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

That original tweet is so slimy.

Honestly, if young Bill Maher had known what old Bill Maher was going to become, he would have killed himself.

I'm old enough to remember young Bill Maher. He was always a sanctimonious piece of shit. Age just turned him into a sanctimonious rich sleazy douchebag. Taking a shit on a pile of shit still leaves you with a pile of shit

Remember when Bill Maher was a gruesome twosome with Ann Coulter? Or was that some mad fever dream I had?

Bill Maher is a cleaned up smug Bill Oriely that himself above it all because he smokes pot.

Fuck him, right in his enlighted centerist booty.

His show isn't even worth pirating...

[–] DagonPie@kbin.social 2 points 1 year ago

I watched maybe 5 minutes of that show and it was the most unfunny stuff ive ever suffered through.

Well, damn. Yesterday there was an article somewhere about why his old show was canceled. I didn’t care enough to read it. Now I wish I had. I didn’t realize he was so strongly disliked.
