I’m honestly curious what it would take to get an actual socialist or communist on his show at this point.

    I got as far as the cultural revolution mentioned in this video. Based on the youtube comments, Bill's audience is exclusively white boomer males ("I'm a conservative, but I loved this!" and "I'm as far left as they come..." comments abound). Still, I can't help wondering if any younger people are still watching this show, looking at those photographs, hearing about the Four Olds, and thinking: "hmm, that Mao guy had some pretty good ideas." Inshallah, Bill Maher will one day wear a dunce cap, and in re-education he will be forced to learn how to care about other human beings.
