Maher said that liberals need a \u201cstand your ground law for cancel culture\u201d and should stop apologizing.<\/p>\n<p>Maher referenced polls that allegedly state 62% of Americans are \u201cafraid\u201d to share their political beliefs but an even larger number \u2014 80% \u2014 think that political correctness is a \u201cproblem.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cEverybody hates it and no one stands up to it,\u201d Maher said. \u201cBecause it\u2019s always the safe thing to swallow what you really think and just join the mob.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Maher said that cancel culture is \u201creal, it\u2019s insane and it\u2019s growing exponentially. And it\u2019s coming to a neighborhood near you. If you think it\u2019s just for celebrities, no. In an era when everyone is online, everyone is a public figure. It\u2019s like we\u2019re all trapped in \u2018The Hills Have Eyes\u2026 and Wifi.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIs this really who we want to become? A society of phony, clenched-a\u2014\u2014 avatars walking on eggshells, always looking over your shoulder about getting ratted out for something that actually has nothing to do with your character or morals?\u201d Maher questioned. \u201cThink about everything you\u2019ve ever texted, emailed, searched for, tweeted, blogged, or said in passing. Or now even just witnessed. \u2018Someone had a Confederate flag in their dorm room in 1990 and you didn\u2019t do anything?\u2019 \u2018You laughed at a Woody Allen movie?&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Maher mentioned recent cancellations from the woke culture mob on the left, including Gina Carano and Chris Harrison, host of \u201cThe\u00a0Bachelor.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Carano was <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/gina-carano-to-produce-and-star-in-upcoming-film-for-the-daily-wire\">fired<\/a> from the hit Disney+ show,\u00a0\u201cThe Mandalorian,\u201d\u00a0earlier this month after tweeting a Holocaust comparison that was deemed anti-Semitic and offensive by the Hollywood left. Disney+ had <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/final-straw-hollywood-reporter-sources-say-disney-wanted-to-fire-carano-in-november\">reportedly<\/a> been looking to fire Carano for some time due to her conservative views. Carano recently partnered with The Daily Wire and signed on to star in an upcoming film. Carano also appeared on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=mxObG659Sc0\">Ben Shapiro\u2019s \u201cSunday Special\u201d<\/a> to discuss how she was treated in the Hollywood culture.<\/p>\n<p>Maher stated, \u201c[Carano] made some Nazi analogy. Who doesn\u2019t these days?!?\u2026\u2019You\u2019re like the Nazis\u2019 is the new \u2018I don\u2019t like you.\u2019 \u2018It\u2019s always OK when Trump\u2019s the Nazi.\u2019 \u2026 By the way, you can\u2019t work in Hollywood if you don\u2019t believe what we believe? Yeah, in the \u201950s, that\u2019s exactly what the left complained they were being told.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Regarding Chris Harrison stepping away from \u201cThe Bachelor\u201d and apologizing for his insensitivity regarding alleged racist actions of one of the contestants, Maher said, \u201cOh good\u2026because all my life I\u2019ve looked up to the host of the \u2018F\u2014 a Stranger Show,\u2019\u2026And if I thought I couldn\u2019t count on \u2018The Bachelor\u2019 for moral guidance, I don\u2019t know if I could go on.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Maher continued, \u201cMature people understand humans are continually evolving as opposed to Wokeville, where they\u2019re always shocked we didn\u2019t emerge enlightened from the primordial ooze.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Maher also went after the recent outrage over the legacy of Abraham Lincoln in places like San Francisco and Illinois, saying, \u201cyes, the \u2018Land of Lincoln\u2019 might cancel Lincoln.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Maher wrapped up the show, saying, \u201cMemo to social justice warriors: When what you\u2019re doing sounds like an Onion headline, stop.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><em><span>The Daily Wire is one of America\u2019s fastest-growing conservative media companies and counter-cultural outlets for news, opinion, and entertainment.
