Bill Maher Discusses Presentism [Judging Everyone In The Past By The Standards Of The Present]
2 years ago

Bill Maher: “In Today's World, When Truth Conflicts With Narrative, It's The Truth That Has To Apologize.”
#Presentism : judging everyone in the past by the standards of the present. (Coined by Historian James Sweet — calling out politicized “presentism” in academic history.)
“Being woke is like a magic moral time machine where you judge everybody against what you would have done in 1066 and you always win. Presentism. Yeah this professor [Sweet] is right. It’s just a way to congratulate yourself about being better than George Washington because you have a gay friend and he didn’t. But if he was alive today he would too. And if you were alive then, you wouldn’t.”
Bill Maher gets into that and more; calling out present-day “liberals”.
