Bill Maher’s trending take on the ‘spike in trans children’ is triggering the Left Posted at 2:44 pm on May 21, 2022 by Doug P.

A couple of years ago if somebody told you that in May of 2022 two of the people most angering the Left in the U.S. would be Elon Musk and Bill Maher you might have thought they were crazy, but that is now the case:

It's been a busy week for the fake outrage screech mob… first Elon Musk… now Bill Maher.

— Tim Young (@TimRunsHisMouth) May 21, 2022

A few months ago Bill Maher explained on his HBO show how the Democrats lost their way (and minds), and his comments about trans kids are going to anger the Left even more than that:

If this spike in trans children is all biological, why is it regional? Either Ohio is shaming them or California is creating them. pic.twitter.com/t3Tx23MOsu

— Bill Maher (@billmaher) May 21, 2022

In case you missed it, Bill Maher did a massive segment condemning the trans kids trend.

"We are literally experimenting on our own children."

That was a heckuva segment.

This is funny because Maher isn’t saying anything very controversial. He’s saying what the vast majority of people think.

It’s considered controversial because the country has been conditioned to self-silence any opinion that might offend the LGBTQ zealots. https://t.co/2sJ8yUJhun

— Fuzzy Chimp 🇺🇸 (@fuzzychimpcom) May 21, 2022

I'm seeing:

"Bill Maher is a sad old man." "Bill Maher is transphobic." "Bill Maher is stupid." "Bill Maher is a jerk." "Bill Maher is basically a Republican now." "Bill Maher is a bad person."

Twitter seems to be very light on the "here is why Bill Maher is wrong" takes. 🤔 https://t.co/2sJ8yUJhun

— Fuzzy Chimp 🇺🇸 (@fuzzychimpcom) May 21, 2022

Maher’s comments are bringing with them plenty of screaming and name-calling from the Left but not much in the way of why he’s wrong.

With the Left's shift to more extreme views, Maher is finding himself more in the new middle.

— Bojangles (@rando_street) May 21, 2022

And yet there are people who claim the Republicans are the “extreme” party.

I haven’t always been a fan of Maher, but he’s been an important voice of sanity. Someone needed to say this. https://t.co/wyJbU5dW52

— Boston Mom (@paulanoukas) May 21, 2022

Brilliant. https://t.co/NoBYZuNvzJ

— Christina Sommers (@CHSommers) May 21, 2022

This is superb 👏👏👏 https://t.co/lSwXbuCQ0X

— CCP IS ASSHOE (@CCPISASSH0E) May 21, 2022

It sure is something else.

One of the best explanations about what's happening! 9 minutes 12 seconds well worth watching. https://t.co/uGJjPMzihX

— MrsRealityUndercover #RespectMySex (@WomenAreHereNow) May 21, 2022

It’s not just teenagers that are influenced, woke parents are pushing it to be trendy. https://t.co/EBJGOAcpqc

— Ms Sherlock (@poccrt) May 21, 2022

Bill Maher suggests kids are coming out as trans is because it's 'trendy' and being gay 'is not hip enough' anymore

Bill Maher experiencing a bit of sanity will soon be hated as much as Elon Musk. https://t.co/W164G4TzOg

— Afshine Emrani MD FACC (@afshineemrani) May 21, 2022

Perhaps a midterm wipeout would help knock some sense into the Left but we would never bet on that.

A few short hours after 9-11, who can forget when Bill Maher declared the terrorist suicide hijackers were “brave.”

They died carrying out a suicide attack. Why wouldn't you consider them "brave"?

I’ve been saying much the same to friends, family and acquaintances for over a year. This isn’t a natural phenomenon. It’s a fashion trend.

I had forgotten about that until you made this comment. As I recall, it was a daycare in California and the owner and staff went to prison.

"Bill Maher is basically a Republican now."

Funny thing is, Maher hasn't moved at all. He's the same person with the same positions he had 20+ years ago.

There’s always an element of “you can’t say that” in good comedy. Maher has struck the motherlode without even trying.

Yes, he did. He didn’t want to take things “this far”, but he and other liberals pushed things in this direction. Once the ball starts rolling it doesn’t exactly just stop at a certain point.

“Maher is trying to crawl out of the Democrat mental woodchipper.”

Maher had thrown a lot of conservatives in that same wood chipper.

He went along for the ride made sure the tires were filled up, and now he wants off the bus? He can ESAD for all I care.

Maher’s comments are bringing with them plenty of screaming and name-calling from the Left but not much in the way of why he’s wrong.

That's because people on the left don't 'debate' ideas - they name-call, shun, cancel, bully, riot and destroy.

What Maher's saying is the trans movement has become a "fashion statement" among white liberal elites - and that it could damage their children forever.

Maher's right on this - the 'trans kink' is not happening in these numbers in working class neighborhoods in Ohio.

Also,

while it might be fun when you're 11 to be the apple of your mother's eye for giving her something to talk about at parties, being a fake woman when you're 28 is a nightmare.

NOT MANY STRAIGHT MEN ARE GOING TO FALL FOR A FAKE WOMAN OR WANT TO HAVE SEX WITH 'HER' or build a life with her... THERE'S GOING TO BE A LIFETIME OF LONELINESS.

I regret Maher doesn't have children - he would have been a wonderful father.

How did you create that list? Was it a lot of work? It takes me a lot of work to post an article.

Bill Maher is discovering what Elon Musk discovered — albeit more slowly.

Not normal for Bill Maher. He used to make sense occasionally. Now it is becoming more frequent.
