Bill Burr is great and I don't think I've ever met a guy who didn't like him. Good politics too, and says them like a normal fucking person who can make a case without being annoying.

Some of the weirdo ass lemmy computer janitors in this thread seem to dislike him. Which means he’s probably on the right side.

The rest of this thread is bonkers. I have no idea what's happening

unhinged people can't tolerate non-idealistic perspectives. Bill isn't a idealist, he's a pragmatic realist kind of guy.

idealists tend to believe that any reference to a reality outside of their ideal utopia in their heads is a form of hate-speech against them.

Bill is a class act. One of the best living comedians.

Some idiots on the right think bill bur is in the middle, how many times does he have to say fuck trump for those morons to understand. He deff not a establishment dem but he is deff a progressive

[–] big_slap@lemmy.world 21 points 1 week ago (4 children)

I think they say that because he portrays himself angrily, and people on the right can really relate to that.

not all anti-trump people are progressive. plenty of center and right-leaning folks say fuck trump. not enough, but plenty.

also it’s not even progressive to say “don’t blame immigrants”. that’s just basic humanity and not letting republican fear mongering drive you rabid.

In terms of right and left he's pretty much the center. American "centrists" are actually right wingers in other countries. Heck, even the Dems who consider themselves leftists are actually on the right.

As someone who listens to his podcast regularly, he's a borderline socialist at this point, but he has blinders on when it comes to "both sides" bullshit.

It's probably because he doesn't want to alienate half of his audience, which I get. But it's super frustrating to hear because he's right there.

Stop blaming each other. The ones we should be blaming are the mega wealthy.

No war but class war

[–] Huschke@lemmy.world 19 points 1 week ago

Exactly, all the major social conflicts are fueled by a few very powerful people to distract us from going after them.

[–] Cocopanda@lemmy.world 13 points 1 week ago

I’ve listened to Bill for decades. He’s a good guy to get advice from. He’s also a fucking but bag sometimes. But who isn’t a little nuts.

[–] Wolf@lemmy.today 13 points 1 week ago (1 children)

Bill Burr has been saying a lot of 'woke' things lately, and I'm here for it.
