Interesting that Maher is pissing these people off so badly. I like it.

The 1st Amendment says we don’t have “lanes” in the US.

he does not “get to tell people of color what they should or should not be offended by.”

people of color have No Right to tell white people what to think or say ...

Free speech has a meaning and that meaning does not include the right to not be offended.

This is the world people like Maher helped to make.

“Stay in your lane” is as offensive as “know your place”.

Even fellow leftist Maher’s occasional one minute of heterodoxy in a 60 minute show is too much for the commissars.

We don’t have “speech lanes” in America, Tiffany.

It’s time to go off-road.

Actually Maher does have that right. It’s called free speech, and it’s a cornerstone of our civilization.

But for a moment let’s assume that Cross is right. Only Blacks can criticize other Blacks. Then logically only Whites can criticize other Whites. Only Californians can criticize other Californians. Only plumbers can criticize other plumbers.

Even Cross would have to see how silly - and stifling - that would be.

If that’s the case, Blacks should not get to tell whitey what they should be offended about either. I’m offended by BLM and CRT so you just stay in your lane.

This ignorance about the true meaning of the 1st Amendment shows the corrosion going on from the education community into the Leftnick media. This deterioration will cause a collapse of our nation as severe as the collapse of the Champlain Towers.

That’s very true. But it looks like Maher is beginning to see that he helped create a Frankenstein monster. So he’s starting to speak out.

That doesn’t excuse his often-disgusting past behavior, of course. Nevertheless Maher deserves some credit here. He is risking his career. And he’s telling the truth to people who would otherwise not hear a word of it.

“”Colorism? Lord, yet another demented meme.””

You got it. It will never end. Let’s just throw out our alphabet and string letters together with no meaning.
