During a panel on Real Time, Bill Maher discussed the rising threat of China, comparing it to the historic space race. He criticized liberal reluctance to address this threat, rooted in racial dynamics, noting China's advancements in AI and cyberattacks. He referenced former FBI Director Christopher Wray's warnings about Chinese cyber threats and emphasized the need to confront China's actions honestly, remarking that cultural sensitivities hinder discussions about their human rights abuses and potential COVID-19 origins. Maher labeled China the 'new Islam,' reflecting on the hesitance to criticize non-white adversaries.
