Bill Maher argues Hollywood involvement hurts Democrats’ political messaging
Bill Maher says celebrity woke virtue-signaling alienates voters and contributes to Democratic election losses, urging a shift toward moderation to regain support.
- On January 11, Bill Maher told reporters at the Golden Globes red carpet he wants celebrities to `Just shut the f**k up` if Democrats want to win elections.
- Maher argues Hollywood's focus on identity and overseas virtue signaling distracts from governance and budget priorities, and he says this 'isn’t doing the Democratic Party any favors,' urging California toward moderation.
- In his HBO special and interviews, Bill Maher labeled universities `four-year day care for the crybullies of the privileged`, earned a best-stand-up nomination for HBO special Is Anyone Else Seeing This?, and drew a rebuke from Wanda Sykes, comedian.
- Fans and critics note backlash against perceived 'wokeness' in Star Wars and Marvel, linking DEI changes to lower box office and satire from Larry David and South Park.
- Looking at his record, Maher has criticized celebrity activism and has engaged across the political spectrum, including a private White House meeting with President Donald Trump described as `gracious` and `measured`.
