Bill Maher was back with another Real Time episode on HBO Friday night, and once again he went after cancel culture, this time at the Olympics. He started with the news that the director of the opening ceremonies was fired hours before the show for making a Holocaust joke in 1998.
"Young people have to stop flattering themselves that they're Nostradamus and would have foreseen, had they been around then, everything that's unacceptable now," Maher complained. "And for further context Mel Brooks wrote one of the most successful musicals of all time around the song 'Springtime for Hitler.' Why do we allow the people who just want to bitch to always win?"
Days before that, the musical director for the opening ceremonies stepped down because of childhood bullying allegations. Maher cracked: "Remember when your teacher used to try and scare you by saying, 'This is going on your permanent record'? Yeah. No longer an empty threat now!"

Realist - Everybody in America is soft, and hates conflict. The cure for this, both in politics and social life, is the same -- hardihood. Give them raw truth.
