That's crazy': Democrat shuts down Bill Maher's rant against vaccine booster shots on 'Real Time'
"Former Rep. Max Rose (D-NY) shut down Bill Maher after the HBO "Real Time" host complained about booster shots to slow the spread of the COVID-19 pandemic.
"I mean, I don't want a booster," Maher said. "I never wanted the vaccine, I took one for the team."
"And by the way, do you know who doesn't get a lot of vaccines? Millennials. I know a lot of millennials," the 65-year-old host claimed. "Especially the twenty-year-olds, they don't want it, they don't think they need it, they're probably right. But I tell them, I didn't want it either, I took one for the team."
"But every eight months you're going to put this sh*t in me?" Maher asked. "I don't know about that."

He "took one for the team"???
BULLSHIT. I am pretty sure the jackass took one because HBO required it if he wanted to do
a live show
No one should be fooled by Maher. He is an anti-vaxer, and he pushes a lot of dangerous information out regarding this on his program, and has been doing that for years.

very important. And these are crazy times when many young people are looking for different ways from their parents.' I was an adolescent in the late '60s to mid '70s.
You mention, though, that they're the most liberal kids you know, but maybe not. A terminology issue.
Definitely activist left. But liberal is a real thing, definable both psychologically and politically, and the farther toward the far left people go, at some point the less liberal they tend to increasingly become. Less liberal in liberal personality traits but also less supportive of what are considered liberal positions and more interested in more radical solutions. Like my era, in this one at least some radicalization has become pretty normal as societal disturbance causes people to search for new answers.
Same on the right. People wonder what happened to conservative "values;" but as almost our entire right was increasingly radicalized and then became extreme RW, typical conservative traits and values lessened and were replaced with...this mean, amoral ruthlessness. People like Nicolle Wallace and Bill Kristol weren't carried along by extremism and still fit the definitions of what it is to be conservative.
Most young people mature to more truth- and stability-compatible viewpoints, especially after they become parents. Like the Chicago Seven. And times keep changing. Chances are probably very good your nephews will both insist on vaccination for their children.
