Comedian Bill Maher slammed the beliefs of woke people while speaking to Joe
Rogan during a recent interview, saying that the way they see the world is
similar to the views of the Ku Klux Klan.
Maher made the remarks during an episode of “The Joe Experience” while
discussing the differences between woke people and liberals.
“You’re like liberals back when they were more reasonable before they became
leftists. And now every liberal kind of has to be a leftist,” Rogan said. “If
you want to be on the team, you’ve got to subscribe to the most fringe ideas
that the team is promoting.”
Maher responded, “I’m always trying to make the case that liberal is a
different animal than woke, because it is, and you can be woke with all the
nonsense that that now implies.”
“But don’t say that somehow it’s an extension of liberalism because it’s most
often actually an undoing of liberalism,” Maher responded. “And so you can
have your points of view and your positions on these things. But don’t try to
piggyback on what I’ve always believed. I have always believed, as liberals
do, for example, in a colorblind society, that the goal is to not see race at
all, anywhere, for any reason. That’s what liberals always believed all the
way through Obama, going back Kennedy, everybody, Martin Luther King.”
“That’s not what the woke believe, they believe race is first and foremost,
the thing you should always see everywhere, which I find interesting because
that used to be the position of the Ku Klux Klan — that we see race first and
foremost, everywhere,” he added. “So again, you can have that position. But
don’t say that’s a liberal position. You’re doing something very different.”
