"Hollywood [is] sort of the epicenter of the woke left. I don't think they're doing the Democratic Party any favors, the comedian said. I think if Democrats want to win elections in the future, job one, tell the celebrities to Just shut the f**k up. You're not helping. You don't strike people in most of the country as sensible or in touch with reality.'"
"I speak freely. And this woke town f**king hates that, Maher said about being nominated for dozens of Emmys for his talk show but not winning. And that's okay. I've made my peace with that. Maher cited his long-standing criticism of woke ideologies and his White House dinner with President Donald Trump as reasons for backlash from his own side. I've been nominated for 33 Emmys, and they would never give it to me. That's not a gag number. That's a real number."
"Maher recently called out the Golden Globes for failing to nominate comedian, podcaster, and fight commentator Joe Rogan in their new podcast category and for celebrating woke content, blasting those behind the annual ceremony as f**king smug a**holes. Did you see that there's a podcast category at the Globes? he said. They only nominated like the super woke stuff. Good Hang, hosted by Saturday Night Live alum Amy Poehler, won the inaugural Golden Globe for Best Podcast at the 83rd Annual Golden Globes."
Outspoken liberal celebrities are identified as the epicenter of the woke left and portrayed as harming Democratic electoral prospects. The priority recommended is that Democrats tell celebrities to stop publicizing views that do not resonate with most voters. Industry backlash is linked to criticism of woke ideologies and a White House dinner with President Donald Trump, alongside repeated Emmy nominations without wins. The Golden Globes were criticized for omitting Joe Rogan from a podcast category and for favoring overtly woke nominees, while Good Hang by Amy Poehler won the inaugural Golden Globe for Best Podcast.
