It’s really saying something that even Liberal Comedian and HBO host, Bill Maher, is speaking out against the Left’s favorite weapon against conservatives, cancel culture. Maher claims cancel culture and other divisive tactics have cost us our place in the world. He claims China is making leaps and bounds while we worry about B.S., like what someone said many years ago.
He said as much on his HBO show, “Real Time with Bill Maher.”
“And finally new rule You are not going to win the battle for the 21st century if you are a silly people and Americans are a silly people,” Maher said
“That’s the classic phrase from ‘Lawrence of Arabia when Lawrence tells his Bedouin allies that as long as they stay a bunch of squabbling tribes, they will remain a silly people. Well, we’re the silly people now,” he continued. “You know who doesn’t care that there’s a stereotype of a Chinese man in a Dr. Seuss book? China. All 1.4 billion of them could give a crouching tiger flying f***.”
“If anything, they are not a silly people,” he later added. “They are as serious as a prison fight.”
“We see a problem and we ignore it, lie about it, fight about it, endlessly litigate it, sunset clause it, kick it down the road, and then write a bill where a half-assed solution doesn’t kick in for 10 years,” Maher said. “China sees a problem and they fix it. They build a dam — we debate what to rename it.”
Maher later continued to point out how China is just destroying us when it comes to handling almost everything except for human rights and our military.
“In two generations, China has built 500 entire cities from scratch, moved the majority of their huge population from poverty to the middle class, and mostly cornered the market in 5G and pharmaceuticals,” he said. “Oh, and they bought Africa. Their New Silk Road initiative is the biggest infrastructure project in history, indebting not just that continent, but large parts of Asia, Europe, and the Middle East to the people who built their roads, bridges, and ports.”
“When COVID hit Wuhan, the city built a quarantine center with 4,000 rooms in 10 days, and they barely had to use it because they quickly arrested the spread of the disease. They were back to throwing raves in swimming pools while we were stuck at home surfing the dark web for black market Charmin [toilet paper].”
“We’re not losing to China — we lost,” he added. “The returns just haven’t all come in yet.”
Maher then brought to light how we are actually hurting future generations of Americans with forced diversity.
“There is a progressive trend now to sacrifice merit for equity, colleges are chucking the SAT and ACT test and in New York Mayor de Blasio announced merit would no longer decide who gets into the schools for advanced learners, but rather a lottery system,” he added. “You think China’s doing that? Letting political correctness get in the way of nurturing their best and brightest? You think Chinese colleges are offering courses in the philosophy of ‘Star Trek,’ the sociology of ‘Seinfeld,’ and Surviving the Coming Zombie Apocalypse? Those are real, and so is China and they are eating our lunch. And believe me in an hour, though, they’ll be hungry again.”

We can only hope Liberals hear this and take note. This is a very real issue. China wants to be number one and sadly at our current rate, they are going to beat us. We need to step it up and show the world just how great we are before these divisive leftists kill our country.
