He seems to be saying we need more toxic masculinity. That was a new low. He’s so out of touch. And this is coming from him, an insanely rich celebrity whose 5-6, 145 lbs and probably gets his nails done 3 times a week. Not that there’s anything wrong with that, but don’t say todays men aren’t masculine enough if that’s you. Bill Maher wouldn’t know masculine if it used him as a fly swatter.

And as someone who is masculine according to people, a bigger guy who can handle himself, the last thing we need is more macho bull shit. Jesus, is he fucking serious? With all the horror in the world as a result of toxic masculinity, including what’s going on in Ukraine, you come with that? Weak.

At one point he talked about how cool it would be to fix a girl’s radiator, LOL, like Bull Maher has ever taken a wrench to a radiator in his entire life.
