I am in no way a "defender of bigotry". Give me a break. If I believe he had bigoted views I would agree, but the fact it was a stupid "shock" joke DOES matter, to me at least. It's fine you disagree, and I understand your passion for the issue.

There are tons of things which are racist. If he said the n-word aimed toward a black person or used it derogatorily towards someone I would be calling him out as hard as anyone else. Humor HAS to have different standards. Comedians wouldn't be able to say anything even the slightest bit offensive otherwise and…

It all comes down to intent for me. I don't think the intent was malicious. If it was my opinion would change. As I said somewhere else, if Bill Maher has a history of shit like this toward race then I would agree.If he doesn't I'm not convinced it just wasn't a joke meant to be shocking just being horribly…

I personally feel that such a statement is a drastic overreaction to what he said, but that's only my personal sensibilities and I can see how it could be seen as more offensive to others. I kind of understand the minimized slavery statement, which I agree could be an uncharitable reading into what he said (though I…

I didn't mean to be patronizing. I more meant his actual routine during Shameless, for instance, I should have gave actual examples I'm just too stoned to right now.

It wasn't a smart thing, I will say that. Also comedy can be outrageous and "offensive" for lack of a better term as long as the comedian doesn't hold actual racist views. Saying something for shock value and actually being a racist are two very different things.

This is never the right direction to take an argument. "Look how much bigger my dick is!"

I can see the argument that it was a racist comment, but I personally don't agree that was the intention. It was tasteless sure, and he probably shouldn't have said it, but give me a break. He wasn't calling anyone the n-word, and nothing he said looks down on anyone, it was a stupid joke.

I'm not at all a fan of Bill Maher but this was the lamest controversy I've seen in a long time. Context is important, and while what he said was tasteless and ill-advised, it wasn't aimed toward anyone (at least in the sense of someone's race) and it was clearly a joke. It wasn't a particularly funny or smart joke,…

I've done shrooms a half a dozen times, and would do it a lot more if I had more money for it.

Normally I would assume this would guarantee he won't win, but since this country has gone fucking crazy, we will see.

Really? Glad I'm not dating you.

"I'm a teenage boy! I don't know what I want." Is really telling for his character. That being said, I don't hate him because he's human, I hate him because he is a selfish coward. If you don't agree with me yet, watch the rest of the bomb. Also he treats Sadie like dirt, and that's super unlikable.

I really wasn't fond of this episode, nor was I fond of the one before it. I've seen the whole bomb and know it's uphill from here, but man those two episodes are weak.

I have something to admit, I fucking love Banksy. I love his art, his politics, and his wonderful faux-documentary.

It wasn't long enough. I could watch drunk Roiland for hours (though just an extra 5 minutes would have worked).

That's a pretty badass way to go, I'll sure say that.

I was wondering why the name didn't even ring a bell and then saw the 9% fresh rating. I almost want to watch it now.

I see what you did there.
