On Friday's Real Time show on HBO, liberal host Bill Maher and actor Jim Carrey celebrated recent Democratic candidates running on far-left platforms and identifying themselves as "socialists," leading Carrey to proclaim: "We have to say yes to socialism -- to the word and everything. We have to stop apologizing."
As Maher turned the discussion to the midterm elections and the successful primary campaigns of candidates like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the liberal comedian rejoiced that Democrats are moving to the far left on issues:
And they did it with unabashed liberal proposals -- Medicare for all, ending student debt, a different approach to the war on terror, ending mass incarceration. It seems like if there is a -- maybe shining spot in this Trump tragedy, it's that it's made the Democrats sort of rediscover who they are.A bit later, he lamented that Democrats have not not done a good enough job of countering Republicans complaining that they are running on a "socialist" platform.
Carrey soon referred to his childhood in Canada and spoke in favor of socialism:
I grew up in Canada, okay, we have socialized medicine. And I'm here to tell you that this bullshit line that you get on all of the political shows from people is that it's a failure - the system is a failure in Canada. It is not a failure, and I never waited for anything in my life. I chose my own doctors. My mother never paid for a prescription -- it was fantastic.And I just got back from Vancouver, and I keep hearing, "Canadians are so nice -- Canadians are so nice." They can be nice because they have health care --

They should also stop apologizing for loving Communists, despite the carnage.
Sometime one has to wonder if ANYONE reads any of this crap BEFORE it passes through their lips.
Hypocrite is to kind a word to be calling EITHER one of these asswipes
(...my mistake - ass wipes have a useful purpose)
Let’s start with Hollywood and Tech mpnies
The redistribution of his entire fortune needs to start immediately.
So, when the Central Committee informs this dope that they are seizing all of his homes and property for the members of said committee, he will will enthusiastically comply?
The A-listers could revenue share.
Give us all your $$$$, Jimmy
We deserve it, you don’t
That’s Socialism, eh?
No wonder Jim Carrey loves socialism so much. He wouldn't have to give up anything and somebody else would have to give him a brain.
Jim Scarry,
Have another Hit off that”Maple Leaf!”
They are DATZIs!! Democrat socialist thugs. Crack down on the neo DATZIs.
If he’s serious, he should go ahead and give 80 percent of his earnings to the government. Why wait until it’s mandatory?
Yes, they should. Clarity in political choices is a good thing.
Knock yourselves out, Bozo
If I was worth $150 million I'd probably figure that I could afford to demand socialism too.
One thing I'd have to say to Jim:
"Lead by example.Give all but $2 million of your net worth to the United States Treasury (yes,we know you're a dual citizen) and then for the rest of your life give all but $200,000 of your gross income to the Treasury,always ensuring that your net worth never rises above $2 million.In doing so you'd still be better off that 99.6% of the world's population and 97.8% of the US population."
This is the United States; Team America supports freedom. Only FAGs support socialism.
And when Socialism takes near all your millions, what then, JimIdiot?
Hey!
Jim!
Go to the socialist paradise of Venezuela and tell them some jokes!
Theyll eat it up!
And probably you, too.
