Winkler has always been a solidly stand up guy. They say to never meet your heroes. But coming from an area where Winkler has spent a decent amount of time. And talk to a number of people who have encountered him in the course of daily life. He's probably one of the safe ones.

Leftism

Our goal is to be the one stop shop for leftism here at lemmy.world! We welcome anyone with beliefs ranging from SocDemocracy to Anarchism to post, discuss, and interact with our community. We are a democratic community, and as such, welcome metaposts that seek to amend the rules through consensus. Post articles, videos, questions, analysis and more. As long as it's leftist, it's welcome here!
Rules:
- Absolutely no fascism, right wing extremism, genocide denial, etc.
- Unconditional support of authoritarians will not be tolerated
- Good faith discussion about ideologies is encouraged, but no sectarianism
- No brocialism/sexism
- No ableism
- No TERFs/ anti-LGBTQ+ rhetoric
- No racism
- No trolling
- No insults, dunking, or personal attacks
- No posting of misinformation, disinformation, or fake news
- Mods have final say
Posting Expectations:
- Comics/memes/shitposts/propaganda are only allowed on weekends
- Try to avoid liberalism unless discussing electoral politics. Even then, try to focus on tactical agreement towards leftist goals
- Only one meta post seeking consensus per person per day
- Posts about a particular ideology are ok, but remember the rules above
- Remember that there is no “right way” to implement leftist theory. This rule does not prevent academic criticism.
- Try to avoid extremely sensitive topics unless approaching them with appropriate care for intersectionality. Use your best judgement, and be prepared to provide respectable sources when having these discussions. Wikipedia is not an acceptable source in these cases.
- Post titles must be meaningful and relevant, except on weekends

We should see if he and Alan Alda can have a nice guy-off. Maybe have a tag team with Ed Begley, Jr. for one of them.
Damn Begley JR. There is a name I haven't thought about in a hot minute. Which is sad. Though it's also apropos. It's the perfect season for one of my favorite movies he's in. Co-starring with Jeff Goldblum Geena Davis Michael Richards and a number of others.
But between those three, alda, winkler, begly Jr. They are absolutely better than Maher in every aspect. Definitely with respect to acting. Maher's biggest role was when he played himself in piranha women of the avocado jungle.
My ex met him on a flight and said he was one of the most delightful people she's ever met. If he can be nice to a stranger on a flight I'd say he's probably safe too.
Bill Maher is pupating into Larry King
From the thumbnail I thought it was him haha. Although I had forgotten that he died.
Is there a link without the obnoxious person pausing it every five seconds to make it seem like they're providing "content"? This is unwatchable.
Maher has a head the size of a pumpkin.
True. But he's far more Hollow with much less pith.
pause it.
I know, it can be annoying, especially if you aren't used to it.
I've tried to watch TMR but it never really clicked for me. I do like Sam but the younger half of the cast doesn't do it for me. It also sometimes feels a little smugly leftist echo-chambery.
