Overtime: Wynton Marsalis, Scott Galloway, Matt Welch | Real Time with Bill Maher (HBO) 

it really just takes semi-politically literate voters. we already had a high level of political ignorance/apathy in america...then came the misinformation age. terrible combo. we need to be teaching both civics and LOGIC. "does this conspiracy theory even make sense?", etc.

When you only embrace the handouts mentality of the democrats, and you won’t talk to republicans, then it’s not both sides. Why should republicans waste time and money on us knowing that we don’t vote for them. Make both sides listen, then vote for the best candidate. We can’t make progress when democrats take us for granted and republicans won’t listen. That why Hispanics and Asians are listened to. They don’t know how they are going to vote!

Republicans and Democrats… 🤮 & 🤮

@@greybeard3368 This is the, "I'm better than them," comment. It's like the "who are you going to vote for," and the answer is ALMOST invariably, "they're both bad options." Doesn't matter who's running, it's your way of saying you're above it all! You're taking the names of two parties and just boiling them own to...what, "puke emojis," which is basically they suck? Maybe people oversimplify shit every now and again here...

@@scourge8097 Republicans and Democrats… Two sides of the same dirty coin. Both equally corrupt and working together to keep us divided, them in charge and their pockets full.

The US is a democratic republic. Because most liberals don't understand what that means, they're actually losing support. The tide is turning because people aren't falling for the lies anymore. Too many governmental boundaries were breached and the liberal media has been losing ground since Fauci, Biden, Hillary, Liz, Kamala, Pelosi, etc. have been exposed as the false demigods that think they are above the law. People are tired of being treated like they're idiots and are not falling for the lies. Bill has seen the writing on the wall. The left is losing ground due to extremists. Media ratings are tanking. The truth is coming out thanks to independent reporting from those who have left the media outlets that are trying to control speech. Freedom will rule once and for all!

Etch this quote onto a stone tablet Pronto!

"Politics has become, by definition: 'the art of the lack of integrity.'" OUTSTANDING.

Very wise man!

Further more democracy is not a matter of having it or not, we have to work hard every day to protect democracy and improve it.

I agree! His analysis was on point! I am now a fan of this man.

@@williamalfonso1373 That's exactly who I was thinking about as I read Sacred Clowns' comment. A+!!!

Now now, I'm waiting for NoFap November.

ted Cruz shared step mom porn on Twitter so we know what his kink is...

I don't want to see some of that. Oh man.

sorry you had to deal with that, kevin

It's the younger gen that "quiet quits" cuz they weren't raised with the work ethic we were (exceptions acknowledged ✌️) I will admit we were taught- even conditioned- to put up with more than should be tolerated, but I have witnessed an extreme move far the other way. Let's try to get the pendulum in da middle 😉

@@nunureds837 The reality is, most people work their butts off for very little return. It's draining on ones life and eventually they dedide it's not worth it. Older generations could at least work their way up to a better paying position and actually afford a house. These days, upward mobility is limited and wages have stalled while the cost of living has skyrocketed. People are killing themselves working for next to no gain. That's where the real problem lies. Young people work just as hard as anyone else, them being "lazy" is a myth. In fact, most younger folks today work MULTIPLE jobs and some will even Uber on the side. $50k a year used to be a great income for a family, nowadays it's poverty. Hell, $100k in most cities is poverty. The era of single income families owning homes and vacationing every year is gone.

@@michlo3393 I agree! Still no excuse for quiet quitting.. One should speak up to management, fight for what one deserves, unionize, or just resign...but properly, with written resignation. And I know it's not that easy- Maybe you have to wait for jobs to open in your field or have bills that can't wait and can't risk unemployment. However, one should always take pride in ones work and remember that anything worth fighting for is not going to be easy.

Exactly! Thanks for making my point!..👍👍

Wynton Marshalis was a shit show on the panel... not sure what you mean. Scott Galloway was the only competent one...

When he has the raging Democrat or lunatic Republican, the shows are awful. Its like watching MSNBC or Fox News. When he has guest that think outside the box its awesome.

I would give it a F -.

Yes this was like the Avengers squad! You've got Galloway and Welch coming with the heavy-hitters, and Marsalis provides that Black philosopher/sage vibe, and of course Bill quarterbacking the whole thing!

It was also the topics and obviously one can say that Tik-Tok (the #MeMovement), Men (due to parents and women) and Porn have been creating a crisis in the U.S.

And hour more and they'll blame it all on video games.

Wholeheartedly agree.

Definitely. It was great. Haven't had a show this good and awhile.

@@mihailtelematico660 It needed a bit more introspection from a female side, but i don't think they were specifically wrong, just kinda one-sided. I do think that videogames could've been next on the list, but yeah, i still agreed with the majority of their takes, and i also think that videogames could add to it, but as a life long videogamer, i know i'm not particularly like those guys taking it out on others. I mean, next up would be music, metal music etc., growing up in the 90s, i was a big Nirvana fan as a kid already, and listen to metal for the most part, and again, it wouldn't make me want to kill people, if anything, the aggressive tone of the music actually channels some of the anger away, granted that i don't listen to bands that glorify these things (Death, Megadeth, Sodom, they sound like promotors of it, but they're actually anti-war/violence). Still doesn't take away from the points made about the underlying problems existing and kept in place by whoever is in power. And while i'm not particularly a fan of capitalism, quite the opposite, but considering how far some people are taking the concept of socialism, i am also not a fan of that. And considering i've already been part of the working class for 20 years as a Millennial, i do think that the new generation needs to pull themselves up by the proverbial bootstraps, because they're screwing the next generation. I don't like working for a minimum wage job, but it's either that or live on welfare, or be homeless/live with mom. I don't agree with the majority of policies concerning the working class, especially not when we're continually cleaning up the mess made by upper class and people in power (credit crisis, housing market etc.), even though i never owned a house myself and probably never will if this goes on. Just like the "quet quitting", just do your job or actually quit, because you're only screwing over the next person. Either form a proper movement, or keep your head down and do your job. Or go to your boss and ask for better wage or whatever is bothering you, doubt that will change anything, but at least you did something, but quiet quitting is just giving up responsibility for the money that you earn at the job. I am not the most motivated colleague either, but i still do my job properly for the people around me, i'm a street cleaner, if i didn't do my job properly, the streets would be a mess and garbage would pile up, and you know how easily things can escalate, butterfly effect and all.

If I had to listen to that musician babble for another 5 minutes I would lose my f****ing mind

Yep!

Wynton says a lot, but it seems like he just likes to hear himself preach. Nobody wants to be lectured to without providing real solutions.

There're a few criticizing Wynton's incoherence. I expected more after that head-scratcher of an Overtime, though, yeah. I'm guessing all the praise being heaped is by fans of his jazz work, otherwise there's a sizable silent chunk of Maher's regular audience who were waiting to hear someone like Wynton orate the way he did, apparently. 🤷‍♂️

Duh

Ya, he seems like a nice guy, but, & it's not that shocking since he's a musician, not into politics as much as the others, he's not as cold up

you seem to be racist to me.

That one stuck with me too. I always enjoy hearing what Wynton has to say.

And we’re short on both right now

Wise Wynton Marsalis. Couldn't agree more...

Dude’s an American treasure

Brilliant, he is, as talented.

Yeah, I couldn’t follow what he was saying. There was a spattering of applause because he said, “civil rights.” He was babbling. But hey, I love his music!

Really?!!!...quite frankly, I can't understand what you're talking about! I understood what he was saying perfectly, & he made excellent points! Listen to him again, because he made a lot of existential points. I can understand how it might be a challenge to follow him, but you can do it if you just replay it a couple times maybe. . I'm sure you weren't the only one, who felt that way. Take care!..👩‍🎤

Dude was all over the place.

"Economic infrastructure for low income"? It's called the labour market.

And you couldn't even figure out their names. We're all fucked.

It's not semantics It's true that both parties take a catch phrase or a name and twist it to match their cause or agenda Sanctuary cities never meant "Send us your immigrants" - it means exactly what Matt said: The city would not report your status or (most recently), would NOT enforce the federal deportation order issued by the Trump administration

I know, it was a joke. Neither of them addressed the actual question. Well what a surprise. Bill pushed once and then just gave up

I was just thinking this! When the first guy talked semantics it was actually a good diversion but the second guy's attempt was like wtf.. lmfao. Then he's like "Black people are going to take your jobs when they go to uni" or something lmfao - are people actually saying this? It's sooo weird.

I get the point regarding northerners, though targeting cities is less about "liberal-run cities" and more about the urban/rural divide in this country. But the issue not yet spelled out and really needs to be, is that Abbott and these local officials shipping off migrants are engaging in human trafficking. Period. I don't care if it's to illustrate a point or to try to highlight hypocrisy, they are boxing up people and moving the around in a way that falls between a coyote smuggler and the Third Reich, which first tried to purge their country of jews and gypsies by shipping them east. I find it very counterproductive.

Are you joking? Just about everyone knows of Wynton Marsalis

I agree!! This guy was spot on! He gets it!!!

You be surprised how many ppl would not know who Wynton Marsalis is.

@@mimidecker5498 I hope you're joking. Probably over 99.9% of people have never heard of him.

@@mimidecker5498 No, they don't.

really, he seems to think others think "black people are gonna take our jobs". wtf is this guy smoking?

@@brunetteXer Isn't that the message sent to the white masses, in order the coerce their voting patterns. Marsalis is pointing out the irony/lie that is spread throughout many discussions. He posed the question, where is the threat? Where are all the positions being filled by minorities? There claim has been there since BEFORE the Civil War, and continues today. The ONLY evidence of consequence has been the enslaved and freed minorities are still suffering from economic enslavement. One need only note the hype surrounding ANY minority person, who manages to attain financial success. Why the hype? Is it to 'show' other disadvantaged people that 'they too, can rise up, and attain financial glory'? Or.....a a soothing balm to those privileged few, to assuage their ignorance of the plight if so many, who provide the privileged with the low cost labors and allows them to sleep at night, albeit with Ambien assistance.

@@brunetteXer There are many who think poc are gonna take their jobs. What are you injecting

@@brunetteXer you never seen/heard white boys crying about "affirmative action", as if it works in the first place? I've seen/heard plenty of them whining about it. It was more popular back in the 90s and early 2000s, but this guy is 60 years old so it makes sense.

He came across is very insular. Dismissing China’s threat because he was paid millions to perform there? LeBron Jazz style right there.

He certainly is. However, he is not calculating China's influence correctly. There is a good chance China has influenced our own hatred of each other. They separate us on their platform and never encourage healthy debate.

YEP!

AMEN.

No….only music. Wisdom--non existent.

@@0sumgamezzz435 We'll have to agree, to disagree on that.

I heard no wisdom tbh. He dodged the first question on immigration and then played whataboutism with China. Get our stuff together before criticizing the CCP? The same government actively committing a genocide? The one who locks you in your apt while you starve to death? We aren’t close.

@@0sumgamezzz435 aww poor stupid Osum

@@CDX7 He's an artist, not a politician. He speaks a different language than you do.

Exactly. Completely lost the point of the question and answered just like a politician

Yep, sounds like Bill in a way agreed with Abbot without saying it.

I was kind of baffled by it. There were a few times during this and the episode where they just glossed over something or added another dynamic to the topic at hand.

Yes. I thought i was the only one not making a connection.

I would suggest you all just missed the point, although it was admittedly vague. The reason I could follow him though goes to the entire theme of his contributions to overtime. It was about simplifying the problems and turning the light on ourselves first. He never intended to answer the idea of sanctuary cities per se, he was making the point about our language and terminology and that sometimes we use buzzwords and slang so much we lose the meaning that used to carry thru that language, as he says nobody even knows what that means. His point was that the debate between the other two about what a sanctuary city was supposed to be was totally irrelevant to a simple, blue collar american. Thats all, he was just very wordy doing it, and not clear when bouncing between metaphor and reality. And to be fair, I rewatched a portion trying to remember his earlier quote about democracy, so I maybe got a better idea of his point of view in particular.

We need more of this.

I disagree. 1st of all Russell Brand is not American and 2nd of all the way he talks I can barely understand him.

hey, he's a jazz conversationalist!

Yeah, I had the same thought. It's mostly semi-incoherent rambling. Not a good guest.

He's the only guy who put out any thoughtful commentary at all.. Other guys were getting off track and rambling incoherently.

@@brianwilson5423 The guy from Reason was also insightful. And Maher was only off when he spoke of Covid. Marsalis was the only really incoherent one. But, he's known for his musical ability, not his wit.

he definitely gets to the point and I agree with him.

His comments sounded the most hackneyed to me. Same old "Chinese stuff stinks" and "porn / social media are corrupting the youth" tirades. Calls it the greatest experiment on men, even though it's been around in its current form since the 1970s.

@@nonmagicmike723 which thing has been around since the 70s in its current form?

Yup

The US surveillance state puts China to shame.

@Robert Dubuc I believe we are all better for Wynton's contrbutions to the world.

It was a delight to see him, very different take than the others on the panel, but i like his jazz analogies because he proved them true with his takes, and it worked perfectly together.

@@g_hagan ... Well spoken... he's all hollow rhetoric

Wynton was blowing it on this segment. I liked his Jazz analogy on the other segment, but he was way off on his answers for this one.

Always the Yank spin on Socialism,lol,China is not a democratic socialist country like happy Sweden, Denmark or Norway,,IT is the CCP.,a feudal authoritarian communist anarchy,and it's crashing!

@@g_hagan Put the blame where it lies on compromised officials starting January 6 traitors.

Allot of intelligence through education (not solely book, either) also.

We are not a democracy! We are a Republic. There is a difference there.

@Suzette Coates Kudos!

And I'm glad it wasn't one sided. Wasn't so much about politics, but what is needed. And go out and make your own bad porn.

Think you watched a different show.

Yup, these men spoke a lot of facts instead of feels. Refreshing. 👋

@@suekoi3885 Other than the dodge on immigration, the episode was really really good though

@@suekoi3885 Really. None of them answered Maher's question at all. They were tossing out a lot of words without saying much.

Lol. He didn't even answer the question. Then started rambling about black people taking jobs if they go to uni or something

Completely agree.

Maybe if he played the trumpet.

It seems like the guests are dodging bills question to me. Why are democrats upset with Texas for shipping illegal immigrants? Need to have some conservative voices along with libs for a good panel. The first question anyway..

@@rizzo021 It is a question that does not have a straight forward answer because of the topic but they basically gave you the answer. It's a game politicians play with their base during election season, (mid-term etc.) The terminology of sanctuary cities is not a very good one and has lead to this partisan attack on what America stands for. "Give us your poor tired huddled masses". If you don't know what statue that phrase is etched into, please look it up. My parents are not from here, therefore making me a 1st generation American. I was able to see America through 2 lenses growing up and it was weird but this country has a lot of growth. I see America and see ppl who want to live their lives according to the laws and be able to raise a family. Im still waiting to see the Unitedness of this nation.

@@0XxBesTofTheRestxX0 I understand the semantics over the definition but its a cop-out. The democrat regimes in these cities do support the president and his open border policies while the folks in Texas do not. Why should only folks in Texas bear the brunt of these unvetted huddled masses who illegally cross the border! Could you imagine all of those immigrants in our countries history skipping Ellis isle who include my great grandparents? Its a fair question. Now people like my grandparent from Portugal can't get into this country unless they break the law as our system is so backed up Huddled masses all over the world deserve the right to become a citizen, and imo should be considered more than people who's first act in our country is to break the law. Do you truly believe in open borders? Hundreds of thousands of Americans are perishing via the opioid crossing the border and the cartels grow stronger.

Yeah, very deep - "the difference is porn". Everything else is exactly the same, the only difference between this generation and the previous is porn. A kid can see a bukake and suddenly they're a socialist.

Not just different views but hearing so much intelligence spoken from someone who can make a great points speaking softer not screaming them at you.

@@mihailtelematico660 I must have missed the porn/socialism connection???

It’s not different views. It’s different, intelligent, valid views.

@@mihailtelematico660 You should see whole episode I'm talking about whole episode.

Not sure wtf he is talking about. Lol

Yea that's was crazy

@@bigdick1267 I think it may have been a jazz musicians way of saying there's a bigger picture to be had. Also the the thing he said after sort tied it together. He spoke more about peopl than tech, as well. No wonder he moved the imagery from a small screen on a small machine to a vast panorama

Of all Wynton said that was your takeaway? Incredibly observant

@@prestoneric6705 That was pretty much all he said. On the specific topic about tiktok and chinese influence, all he said was "everyone's corrupt, we need to get ourselves together" which is nothing but whataboutism, then he said "the chinese are here to get an education" which doesn't follow on at all from what was said, then he said he got off a plane and "that's a big country" and "when you get out in the country of china, its very different from the country of america"...... ummmm okay?, that there are alot of people over there who are in "semi-slavery" and we're not talking about them....... which is again evading the topic because nobody was talking about what regular chinese citizens are doing, the topic was about the actions of the chinese government. He basically was saying that china is no worse than "we" are, and that we should ignore them and focus on our own problems. Which is just bullshit. The west is by no means perfect or innocent, but to say that china (the government, not the people) is no worse and poses no threat, is obviously ridiculous. It was a whole lot of nonsense, but because he took 2 minutes to say what could be said in 2 seconds, and did so in a quiet husky lyrical voice, people are convinced its incredible wisdom.

NO he didnt. It is the dumbest comment in the discussion. Equating what we know to be the sinister intentions and anti-American scheming of communist China with the simplistic mind of a dog is bullshit.

No he wasn't, he was rambling about shirt. Nice guy, but everyone he spoke out had nothing to do with what was said right before that. Seems like a nice guy but he had no idea what he was taking about here

P)))♡♡♡))))))!aa!

That shouldn’t be too hard given that there is very limited intelligent discussion. I thought the writing on his show tonight was kind of weak. He had a couple high points but still he is never comfortable elevating anything related to Republicans above the liberal status quo. It would actually be nice to watch something once in a while that is funny while not being overtly partisan.

Respectfully I Couldn't disagree more......

Nope, totally garbage episode and I've been a fan a long time. Cringe with assuming Wynton was a pothead because he's black; a misguided discussion of masculinity from a frustrated guy with jaw problems; a guy who, in Libertarian (Republican Lite) fashion does "let immigrants in" for cheap claps, ignoring that, once they're here, he doesn't want those "Hispanics" (his term) to get educated, go to college for free, or get healthcare, just come in solely to labor, to be willing to do the jobs Americans think are important but don't want to pay a living wage for...aka he's ONLY "pro immigration" to keep wages LOW, which is a GROSS take. Plus, a Boomer miss-the-point-entirely diatribe about 'no one wants to work'...no, no one wants to be exploited for minimum wage or work 2 jobs or more to pay rent! Libertarians are Republicans who like to smoke pot. That's the tweet. This show is becoming 3 White Guys Talkin about How Hard They Got It and it's totally out of touch. Bill, hang up the show after the midterms. The Dems aren't as clueless and ineffective as you keep painting them out to be... because you don't want to pay taxes, so keep pushing that tired narrative...and the anti-Biden ageism jokes, which are TIRED. OK, Boomer. PS: Bill Maher has a college degree. Why he's so anti-college, ask yourself that.

I thought the same, especially in this episode. He was the weakest on the panel, mostly going for cheap, superficial shots to get applause.

Get a life.

🙄 I'm English and I don't get how so many people fawn over these unelected crooks. The Royal family is a product that for some reason people buy into. Perhaps it's okay for you because the Royals don't take your money without asking.

I have trouble understanding the reverence for any queen or king as an American. To me they did not earn the title and therefore it is not fair. Our democracy is certainly imperfect as this show illuminated again, but giving power, riches and titles to people who did not earn them of their own merit does not make sense to me. She sounds like a good person, but did not earn her title fairly.

Okay I get your sad. But to compare the death of a woman who loved a very full life to that of a man who was assassinated by his government… not comparable. Maybe if the Queen was shot in public but she died peacefully in her bed surrounded by loved ones. And old people die. It’s their thing.

@@brianag9726 Elizabeth II died the richest woman in the world at everyone else's expense. Yet her only job was to shake hands, cut ribbons, attend dinner parties, wave on balconies and read speeches written for her.

@Shroom Kingdom I agree that the panel discussion was great.

With all due respect, how are you judging this? I think Bill asked some great questions but then I watched the guests dodge all of them without giving real answers. That is very disappointing.

@@differencemaker242 Scott Galloway was brilliant and engaging. I was thoroughly entertained with this show. It was an oasis, in a vast desert of Bill's routine shows of late.

@@stevechance150 I think it's disappointing at the least and or rude at the other end to be invited onto a show and then not answer the questions asked of you. Marsalis at least attempted to answer the questions, even though he rambled and gave incoherent replies. Everyone else dodged or pretended to answer them. You could see Bill wanted to or considered pushing for real answers but ultimately decided not to. That was unfortunate. For that reason I did not enjoy the clip. But this has become common place. You see it most frequently on the Sunday morning news shows.

@@stevechance150 am with ya, Steve - Scott Galloway is among Bill's best panelists. Like ever.

As long as he sticks to jazz and stops trying to be some sort of cultural guru.

Shut up and dribble, is that the point you’re making?

@@chrisrayne3274 artists of all persuasions are cultural gurus. You’re watching a comedian talk about political and cultural affairs. Wynton has a specific experience that is worth hearing about the American culture.

@@chrisrayne3274 He is a Black man in America, he sees things very clearly that others can’t see.

@@brianag9726 well, if that is your criteria, it's hardly a unique perspective....

"Advocating" for less media and for censorship isn't the hot fresh take you think it is.

The Libertarian in glasses was silent on that one. Granted, TikTok may have data collection vulnerabilities in regards to hacking and stealing US government secrets. But the mode of video production exhibited in TikTok will just be mirrored by a private enterprise. The culture will change accordingly, no unless we try to ban social media outright. And we can't do that either.

Eventually government will take everything and give us back a government-approved life. For our own good.

The two aren’t mutually exclusive. Capitalism is a financial system, democracy is form of government.

@@rjolson6743 Uh, no. Not likely. I live in an city where we have made major investments in improving infrastructure and modernizing old buildings or tearing them down and replacing them. Good joint ventures between businesses and government working to get things done. New investments in water and sewer and roads. To be honest, I was sceptical that it would ever happen, but we've accomplished a lot by working together. Partnerships between business and government are better than either working alone.

@@RM-ed1if Well put.. I’ve been saying to folks for over two decades that this nation’s Capitalist Economic System really should ‘at bare minimum’ go back to what was termed, “Stake-Holder Capitalism” vs. what took its place by the late 1950’s following the recession of 1958, “Share-Holder Capitalism”, as the latter, although not perfect by any measure, at least held companies &/or corporations to be semi-economically responsible within & for whichever community, city, county or, state citizenship existed where “x” company/corp resided in (albeit, at the behest of whatever level of honest/dishonest UNION of that era, oversight said Co/Corp had to uphold or answer to, more often than not). I really dig the idea of CoOp type business practice, wherein its employees’ LABOR is valued more internally by them all having a measure of stake interest of said Co... Aside from that topic though, another suggestive idea that I’ve had for many years now, is about Fed taxation in general, in that, “IF” hypothetically speaking, each and every single one of us FIRSTLY: paid what’s formulated as a fair base percentage each, REGARDLESS of WEALTH or lower income “but” SECONDLY: with the caveat that we ‘could’ actually log into whatever official US Gov website, with our individual specific I.D. data & have total control of our individual tax pie charts to physically set/adjust how much $ goes to which slice say, once a year during tax season, how much different or, how much more ‘Democratic’ would things play out?

@@peaceloveharmony7213 Exactly!

Intelligent conversation and perspective. Wynton blew me away.

A civil conversation requires informed people.

He does not sound very smart, and they are doing their best to not judge him. In part, because they know he is a musical genius but maybe in part because he's black and it's soft prejudice of low expectations.

Like Bill said about who he is to our generation.

Wynton doesn't play smooth jazz. Kenny G, Dave Koz, David Sanborn, Gerald Albright, Boney James, and when they were alive, George Howard and Grover Washington, Jr. are all smooth jazz artists. Wynton is from New Orleans - birthplace of jazz. While he is highly influenced with Dixieland jazz, cool jazz, bebop, swing, big band - he has been living in New York (he's Juilliard trained) since the late 70s (basically my whole life, and I'm a music teacher from NY). You should listen to Wynton play Classical, such as The Carnival of Venice.

Word salad nonsense.

@@neildusseault8404 wynton tonight was more of a discordant jazz. cringe worthy.

HAH!!! Jamie Raskin is an idiot. Never met a camera he didn't like.

You really haven't researched the atrocities that LBJ caused in the black community. He promised that the government would take care of the black community and look where that is now. Much worse than before his great society. Why do you think MLK really didn't care for him? Educated black Americans like Thomas Sowell have been trying to open the eyes of black business owners and many are turning away from the democratic party because they now realize it hasn't done anything to help, but rather has destroyed the black community with it's perpetual lies. Only rino's like Liz Cheney and George W. Bush are supporting LBJ's lies. So that is who has actually run with it!

exactly

@Chris W fr dude was saying a whole bunch of words but really nothing, the way he danced around issues you'd think he was a politician or something

@V66catta yes, "amazing insight".

Wynton is obviously intelligent and well-spoken. And yes, has some great insights. But he needed to know when to let the experts in their fields kinda take the lead. Like duh, when Galloway says “Chinese” or ccp he’s not talking about Chinese people but a specific authoritarian government. Marsalis kinda got there in the end to a place of respecting others expertise, but it was kind of cringey for a few moments.

Nothing but word salad

Agree and very soft spoken and wise and did anyone notice the total look of disgust on Scott Gallaways face when he was speaking

He came across is very insular. Dismissing China’s threat because he was paid millions to perform there? LeBron Jazz style right there.

@@longbeach7623 yeah, that’s a good point. That didn’t cross my mind that he’d be playing jazz in China and probably hosting musicians from China at the Lincoln center. But that’s his schtick. Artists don’t care as much about the niceties of politics beyond the broad idealistic strokes.

Proof of your ridiculous claims?

@@deborahfreedman333 I would need proof that you don't get paid in ruble to continue your training.

And yet this was probably the best segment of Maher's show I've ever seen... it's almost as if the quality of the questions drags down the quality of the show...

Its social democracy. If these ppl want social democracy then why do they keep saying socialism? It’s cringe at this point.

@@tomjeff8262 Tell me you have no idea whatsoever what socialism is without telling me you have no idea whatsoever socialism is. Ah, 'muricans.

It is the workers owning and controlling the means of production in socialism. You see it in co-ops and union shops. There might be different levels of government oversight in the historical examples. The government might also be a big investor in some systems. I agree with the rest of the assessment.

Isn’t one of the reasons European countries can afford more social programs….is because they don’t spend nearly as much on the military. While Bill has pointed out many times through the years that Americas military budget is insanely high, and is basically a jobs program…..America is tasked with being the protector of many European countries (and even when we aren’t….how much aid have we sent to the Ukraine?).

Yeah I thought his comment was very ignorant of what type of socialism people really want. Not the Venezuelan model.

@David Kim Agreed!

Highlight? He spews meaningless rhetoric and empty arguments.

It's strange because I got the impression he talked a lot without saying anything.

@Ken Jannelli I so agree with your comments!

Then bring sidewalks and public space to the antisocial suburbs. Tax the rich (the people WITH money) to pay for it.

and mainstream media keeps people watching. and then we voted in a TV celeb for el presidente, whaaaaat

Well I guess those psychologists were wrong. IQ has only increased since 1980, although seems to be plateauing more recently. It's called the Flynn Effect. Look it up. Education rankings have fallen because funding for teachers has fallen while other countries climbed out of poverty and did it right, respecting teachers as professionals. Media use has seen no correlation yet with IQ scores. Maybe EQ and other things.

I already do that....but I'm not in the demographic they were talking about 😉

I don't think people want to date/get married because everyone is a self serving asshole these days! At least it feels like it....doesn't exactly make you fall in love with people out there. If you are single and just jack off to porn when you feel the urge you can be free once you get passed the sex and pursue what YOU want in life. When you are married and are a guy it's what your spouse and kids want about 100% of the time. Not very fun....after awhile that just gets old! Again everyone is different...but this mythical idea that you need other people to be happy really puzzles me. I tolerate people...I don't derive happiness from them most of the time. Just my two cents, maybe my perspective is warped but I see unhappy people in unhappy relationships all the time. Don't worry about millennials from a relationship prospectus...worry from an economic one. That's the real struggle for most of us!

@@robertk617 bro, are you trans?

Me and a bunch of the homies. You in?

No he didn't. Unfortunately it's not that simple or easy. I've "gotten out there" many times and yet still to no success.
