Bill Maher on Stan Lee

Okay, so Bill Maher said along the lines of (paraphrasing):

“Stan Lee and comic books made people stupid.”

Statements like these just go to show the overgeneralizing and over-simplification of problems.  It likes people want an easy explanation for something.

That statement is along the lines of:

“California forest-fires happen because people don’t rake.”

It’s stupid and people who use this kind of rhetoric are ideological blowhards.  It’s an attention seeking ploy.

When I was in the Real Time audience everyone else stood up to give Bill a standing ovation before the show.  I did not.
