That was just :gucci::scust::snoop: all around. Especially since Maher in a previous show said that he doesn't believe that the CIA had anything to do with the crack era. And he has said plenty of times that he loves the CIA and doesn't like talking bad about them.

I get that the CIA being in American alleyways at 4AM to fight terrorism sounds far-fetched. But why the hell did he mention Popeye's chicken? What did Popeye's do to him? :picard:

If anyone gave Bill Maher a pass, unfortunately, it's time to put him in the "problematic" category. I know most people are canceling him outright. This is now the 4th time I've seen Maher say something slick about black people. In order,
  1. said something slick in front a black congresswoman
  2. said something slick about Detroit in front of Neil deGrasse Tyson; Tyson lowkey snapped though
  3. the House Negro comment
  4. Popeye's

Even if I gave him the benefit of trying to be edgy and failing, he should have learned by now to just stop. Anyway, I don't watch Maher like I used to. It's rarely now. But now he's given me another reason continue to watch less, if at all.

Yeah, and he's just basically out of touch with the issues nowadays. I stopped watching him awhile ago.

That was the 2nd slick comment he made. In his monologue he said for black history month Trump pardoned a bucket of chicken.. wtf? Even the audience seemed taken aback and confused. Maher think he slick with his racism.
i mean the joke was projecting trump's racism, but yeah that was cringeworthy :huhldup:

this dude really needs to shut the fukk up about anything besides politics :dead:

When talking to Black people don't bring up fried chicken, watermelon, chitterlings, collard greens, black eyed peas or corn bread unless it is being served and is visible.

He picked a fast food place to insert into his joke. The joke is clearly racist because black people love fried chicken?:stopitslime:

The cac on twitter and the OP :mjpls:
