[WATCH] Bill Maher Rains Fire Down on Cancel Culture 'Purges' and the 'Bummer' Olympic Games

Bill Maher went after cancel culture over the weekend, saying the left’s purges “belong in Stalin’s Russia.”

“How bad does this atmosphere we’re living in have to get before the people who say cancel culture is overblown admit that it is in fact an insanity that is swallowing up the world?” he asked.

Maher highlighted several instances of Olympic Committee officials being fired for things they’d said or done decades ago, and declared: “This is called a purge. It’s a mentality that belongs in Stalin’s Russia.”
