Kids Say the Darndest, Most Stalinist Things
By Bill Maher
Bill Maher is the host of HBO's "Real Time With Bill Maher."

February 18, 2005

A new survey found that a majority of high schoolers think newspapers
should not be allowed to publish without government approval. And
almost one in five said that Americans should be prohibited from
expressing unpopular opinions.

Lemme tell you little darlings something: This is my livelihood you're
messing with, so either learn the Bill of Rights or you don't deserve
Social Security.

Now, to those of you who think I'm overreacting: Yes, I understand
that when you're in high school you're still very young and that no
one really cares what kids say anyway — it's not like priests are
dating them for their brains.

But the younger generation is supposed to rage against the machine,
not for it; they're supposed to question authority, not question those
who question authority.

And what's so frightening is that we're seeing the beginnings of the
first post-9/11 generation — the kids who first became aware of the
news under an "Americans need to watch what they say" administration,
the kids who've been told that dissent is un-American and therefore
justifiably punished by a fine, imprisonment — or the loss of your
show on ABC.

President Bush once asked, "Is our children learning?" No — they
isn't. A more appropriate question might be, "Is our teachers
teaching?" In four years, you can teach a gorilla sign language. Is it
too much to ask that in the same amount of time a kid be taught what
those crazy hippies who founded this country had in mind?

I know the Morals & Values folks want us to take time out of the
school day for prayer and the Ten Commandments and abstinence training
and at least two theories of evolution — the one agreed upon by every
scientist in the world and the one that involves naked ladies and
snakes — but, lest we forget, last month the people of Iraq risked
death and danger to send a simple, inspiring message: America, get out
of our country. But also, we want the freedoms you take for granted.

Now, I didn't mind being on the losing side of the last election. But
as a loser, I guess I have some "unpopular" opinions — and I'd like to
keep them. I'd even like to continue to say them right out loud on TV,
because if I just get up there every Friday night and spout the Bush
administration's approved talking points, that's not freedom or
entertainment. It's Fox News.

Wow. Serially-clueless, and offensively so. It's one thing to disagree, but
quite another to make analogies which are patently false, and inconsistent with
arguments (if you could call them that) that you've made in the past. Makes you
look like an idiot. Or confirms what we already knew, actually.

Following the same philosophy, I suggest Doctors be banned from giving
any bad news to their patients. Meteorologists would only be allowed
to report GOOD weather.

It will be a better, happier world.

I shudder to think what the US will be like with them in power, 30 or so
years from now. I suppose that Americans will have an approved list of
conversation topics, with an all seeing nationwide surveillance system
monitoring for compliance. One slip of the tongue, and you disappear. Or
else we will all have a computer chip implanted in our brains,
monitoring our thoughts constantly and continuously reporting back to
the secret police. One unapproved thought from you, and boy, you're in
trouble-with a few keystrokes or a spoken command, the secret police
command your brain and heart to shut down, and you suddenly keel over
dead while working the checkout counter at Wal Mart (the only remaining
employer). Or it could be the reverse-the computer chip is in control of
the wetware, and feeds us a continuous stream of government approved
thoughts and feelings. The human brain will be used only for controlling
body function, actual thinking will be done by the computer chip which
will be directly connected to the Ministry of Truth. Imagine the
possibilities! No more terrible twos, no more teenage rebellion, no more
bitching about how bad your job is. You will only think government
approved thoughts, only talk government approved topics of conversation,
they will decide when and what you feel.

What's this thing with Canada, eh?

Did you run across the border thinking you could get cheap meds without a
prescription, and get turned down?

Speaking of which, you might check your current dosages and consult a
doctor. When someone calls Canada "fascist" I have to think they are either
crazy or drugged, or both.

We use the term "dxAce"..it means drugged, crazy AND drunk all at

"Third world" includes many of America´s inner cities and poor rural areas.

Fascism is when corporations and government are so chummy they
conspire against the people. It usually manifests in a personality
cult, excessive religion and lots of war and fear.

It can't happen here.

Your displays of ignorance are endemic to these boards. Just take the recent
suggestion that Canada is fascist as an example of a totally absurd, totally
off the track comment, and you have a small idea of how ignorant you are.
You seem to know many facts, but are totally unable to assemble them into
reasonable ideas.

Steve just likes to taunt the Trolls. Calling Canada a fascist state in
the same light as the Trolls calling people in the Bush administration a
Nazi. Get real.

The only reason I have no degree is that I was approached by a headhunter

Does the word puffery mean anything to you?

Yes, and it has a precise definition. Puffery involves making broad,
generalizing and unsustainable statements about a product or service in
advertising. A good example would be "the richest taste." Since "rich taste"
is indefinable, but still a positive, this is puffery.

Things that can be defined, proven or quantified are not, generally, the
subject of puffery.

As usual, your tangential approach, based on casting doubt by changing the
argument, is not working.

Other than an occasional "Nibi Nibi Islands ATC active this morning on 6069"
you ware a waste of bandwidth.

No, the point is that I do not need a degree, did not need one and was
studying for personal satisfaction. Someone who already has a career does
not benefit from an undergraduate degree if they are already in a top
management position. As Telamon (with whom I sometimes disagree) stated, it
is just a piece of paper. And, to me, irrelevant... or I would have done a
couple of night classes and gotten the degree.

I never said that, 'tard boy... get your story straight!

Sorry, the reference to the notorious 60's hoax was lost on you. You are not
even a very knowledgable DXer.


Bottom line in this little arguement is... I graduated, and you didn't.
Then you
try to make light of that. Oh well, make your excuses... I've probably
heard
them all.

I've got "the Ace(hole)" killfiled, so you won't see any replies to that waste
of a human brain from me. But this thread, considering that it raises the
question as to whether free radio will be hard to find in the new United States,
is (or was) on-topic for alt.radio.broadcasting, amazingly. It's actually
rather intriguing that, in large measure, this is actually happening, with the
disconnect between the U-S's implementation of IBOC and the Canadian's selection
of Eureka, that access to unfiltered news sources will diminish for U-S
residents, even those situated close to the Canadian border. If I were a
paranoid, I'd be getting the hell out of the U-S. (Wait...I *am* getting the
hell out of the U-S.)

Good, don't let the door hit you in the ass, 'tard boy.

Yeeha! One less 'tard boy in the USA!

Your turn. Name me one single benefit that having a degree would have given
me. Otherwise, move on to calling Canadians 'tards like you usually do.
