Bill Maher, host of HBO’s “Real Time,” blasted young people who have
far-left views ranging from wanting to abolish the police to wanting to
try communism, saying that their ideas are stupid.

Maher’s remarks came during a segment where he highlighted how other
countries respect their elders, whereas some in America think that the
elderly are in the way and are not with the times.

“You know the reason why advertisers in this country love the 18 to 34
demographic?” Maher said. “Because it’s the most gullible. Yeah. A
third of people under 35 say they’re in favor of abolishing the police
— not defunding, but doing away with a police force altogether, which
is less of a policy position and more of a leg tattoo. Thirty-six
percent of millennials think it might be a good idea to try communism,
but much of the world did try it.”

“I know, millennials think that doesn’t count because they weren’t
alive when it happened. But it did happen. And there are people around
who remember it. Pining for communism?” he continued. “It’s like pining
for Betamax or Myspace. So when you say you’re old, you don’t get it.
Get what? Abolish the police and the Border Patrol and capitalism and
cancel Lincoln? No, I get it. The problem isn’t that I don’t get what
you’re saying or that I’m old. The problem is that your ideas are
stupid.”

Maher also blasted people who sit around on Twitch watching other
people play video games and who spend an excessive amount of time
playing around on their smartphones.

“Twenty percent of Gen Z agree with the statement, ‘society would be
better off if all property was owned by the public and managed by the
government,’ and another 29% saying they don’t know if that’s a good
idea,” Maher concluded. “Here’s who does know: anyone who wasn’t born
yesterday.”

PARTIAL TRANSCRIPT:

BILL MAHER, HOST OF REAL TIME: You know the reason why advertisers in
this country love the 18 to 34 demographic? Because it’s the most
gullible. Yeah. A third of people under 35 say they’re in favor of
abolishing the police — not defunding, but doing away with a police
force altogether, which is less of a policy position and more of a leg
tattoo. Thirty-six percent of millennials think it might be a good idea
to try communism, but much of the world did try it. I know, millennials
think that doesn’t count because they weren’t alive when it happened.
But it did happen. And there are people around who remember it. Pining
for communism? It’s like pining for Betamax or Myspace. So when you say
you’re old, you don’t get it. Get what? Abolish the police and the
Border Patrol and capitalism and cancel Lincoln? No, I get it. The
problem isn’t that I don’t get what you’re saying or that I’m old. The
problem is that your ideas are stupid.

If you say let’s eat in the bathroom and s**t in the kitchen, yeah,
that’s a new idea. But I wouldn’t call it interior design. You think
someone 80 is hopeless because they can’t use an iPhone? Maybe the one
who’s hopeless is the one who can’t stop using it. You think I’m out of
it because I’m not on Twitch? Well, maybe I get Twitch. But I just
think people watching other people play video games is a waste of
f***ing time.

Twenty percent of Gen Z agree with the statement, ‘society would be
better off if all property was owned by the public and managed by the
government,’ and another 29% saying they don’t know if that’s a good
idea. Here’s who does know: anyone who wasn’t born yesterday.
