At first I thought this was a satire:
But, I am starting to think Maher is about to drop the left. He seems pretty disgusted these days.
I've never given him a lot of credit for his arguments and this is no different.
But it is interesting that he is going after the media AND the medical profession:
But when all of our sources for medical information have an agenda to spin us, yeah, you wind up with a badly misinformed population including on the left. Liberals often mock the Republican misinformation bubble, which of course is very real. Ask anyone who works at Hillary’s pizza parlor. And we do know conservatives have some loopy ideas about COVID like the third of Republicans who believe it couldn’t be spread by someone showing no symptoms. But what about liberals? You know the high information by the science people. In a recent Gallup survey, Democrats did much worse than Republicans in getting the right answer to the fundamental question: what are the chances that someone who gets COVID will need to be hospitalized? The answer is between one and 5%. 41% of Democrats thought it was over 50%, another 28% put the chances at 20 to 49.

Maher: Shouldn't Liberal Media Have To Answer For Making The Audience Believe A "Bunch Of Crap About COVID?"
HBO "Real Time" host Bill Maher whacked the media for peddling paranoid "bullsh*t" about COVID with negative coverage and praised Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) for protecting his "most vulnerable population, the elderly, way better than did the governor of New York," Andrew Cuomo. "Democrats...
