Bill Maher HUMILIATES Neil deGrasse Tyson in trans debate: 'You're part of the problem'​

Rachel Bowman

Bill Maher and famed astrophysicist Neil deGrasse Tyson clashed over America's oldest magazine and its stance on transgender athletes in women's sports.

The comedian and scientist repeatedly sparred over why Democrats lost the election during Friday's episode of Real Time.

Maher started the debate by asking Tyson about the editor of Scientific American, Laura Helmuth, decision to resign after posting a string of foul-mouthed attacks on President-elect Donald Trump.

'It sure didn't sound scientific. It didn't sound like the person I would want to be running Scientific American. It was a rant on Twitter. I could read it to you. It's really ugly. You know, 'I apologize to younger voters that my Gen-X is so full of f***ing fascists,'' Maher said.

'Okay. I'm not for canceling people on either side, but here's what I think is the scandal. This is in Scientific American less than a year ago, 'inequity between male and female athletes as a result, not of inherent biological differences between the sexes, but of biases in how they are treated in sports.'

'That's nuts. And it sure ain't scientific. And it's in Scientific American. And that's why the Democrats lost the election. It's true.'

Maher referenced a piece published on November 1, 2023 titled 'The Theory That Men Evolved to Hunt and Women Evolved to Gather Is Wrong' which discussed the biological differences in males and females.

Tyson laughed at Maher for claiming transgender issues is why Vice President Kamala Harris lost the presidential election.

'Bill, every 20 minutes on your platform, you come up with another reason why the Democrats lost. You already have the answer. They lost the election. So anything you say about why they didn't,' the astrophysicist said before Maher cut him off.

'First of all, you don't watch this show so you don't know — It's okay, but you talk as if you do and you f***ing don't. That's okay, just don't bulls**t me. That's the one thing people can never do on this show is bulls**t me,' Maher said.

'And that's fine, but I don't say that. I have very good reasons. But engage with the idea here. What I'm asking is Scientific American is saying basically that the reason why an NBA, WNBA a team can't beat the Lakers is because of societal bias.'

Tyson deflected Maher's criticism of the piece and the magazine for publishing it arguing it was an old piece, but Maher doubled down.

'Why can't you just say this is not scientific and Scientific American should do better,' he said.

'I think a year ago, women still couldn't beat men in basketball or any other sport and it wasn't because of society. You don't see a problem here?'

The astrophysicist told Maher women might have a biological advantage in long distance swimming.

'Well, I'm going to file you under 'part of the problem,'' Maher said.

The two butted heads over the topic again during the show's Overtime segment while discussing patients getting a second medical opinion.

Tyson argued in most cases people do not need a second opinion, but Maher insisted people do.

'I'm trying to put credit back to doctors where our life expectancy is three times what it was 150 years ago. And everyone before 150 years ago ate organic! And half of them died before they were 35. Science matters,' Tyson said.

'Of course it does,' Maher replied.

'Sometimes you don't sound that way. That's what worries me,' Tyson said.

Maher hit back, 'Actually, you're the guy who doesn't understand why the WNBA team can't beat the Lakers so I don't know, you're supposed to be the scientist and you couldn't even admit that! And as far as medicine goes, I could talk to you about this all day, but again, we do have a party to get to. This is not your field, you're not a doctor.'

'I'm a scientist! Excuse me,' Tyson scoffed.

'That's not a doctor! That's not a doctor! When I have a goiter on Uranus, I'll call you,' Maher said.

Just because women slightly close the gap the longer the distance, but don't quite manage yet, it becomes clear that Neil didn't fully read the Google AI response when one-line searching this data. Ill-informed as ever.

If you want to be technical, in the video he just says that women might have the advantage in long distance swimming, which could be due to anatomy, technique, etc, as you've mentioned.

However this doesn't mean that they've surpassed anyone yet. His statement is very safe, in essence, if you went to him with this comment, he might just even tell you that you both agree on the conclusion.

Regardless, I don't think this is pertinent to anything here. Women seem to have an advantage on this? Ok, what was the point again?

 

[Echo_Doge]

Tyson was an idiot for even appearing on the show. What did he think was going to happen? That he was going to say "Science!" and a propagandist was going to roll over and admit defeat?

And when he was getting gender-bombed, all he really had to say was "That's not my field of expertise. You would need to ask someone else", then steer the conversation to some other science stuff.

The guy really is uncharismatic and has zero social savvy.

Anyone have a link to the full interview/debate? Tried finding it on youtube but all I can find is 5 minute long reaction clips.

The point actually goes in the favour of the "sex matters" camp. If women can have an advantage in certain sports, then shouldn't men have their own sex segregated long distance swimming to protect them from this unfairness?

 

[Dana scully]

People like that prove everyday that science is dead or at least the western scientists are completely useless and gonna be taken over by asian advanced scientific research.

 

[HairyBadger]

NDG Tyson is a meme at this point.

He thinks mentally ill men, on 5 minutes of HRT are legitimate women.

Men on 50 years of HRT are not women.

Question for our resident scientists:
How would a troon dilate in space? What if we had an astronaut troon up on the ISS? How might he dilate his bloody, infested inverted penis?

something like this

Bill is only upset idiots like Neil are making them look bad and causing them to lose.

 

[Unnecessary Surgery Land]

I just want everyone to know I hated Neil deGrasse Tyson before it was cool.
It all started when I was a kid watching PBS then Neil deGrasse Tyson popped up. That fuck started talking about how 'astronauts weren't allowed to look like me, wah wah I was a black boy who had to overcome because NASA was racist'.
He was smug in between his whining... all I could think about is how fat and stupid he looked.
He was a complete buzzkill. I always changed the channel anytime he was on PBS (which increased every year).

He was always such a turn off. I have no idea how anyone could pretend to like him.

 

[Pill Cosby]

I don’t know why Neil deGrasse Tyson is going to hard for trannies. It’s not like he’s ever going to #MeToo one.

 

[The Hardest R]

I don’t know why Neil deGrasse Tyson is going to hard for trannies. It’s not like he’s ever going to #MeToo one.

Because Black Science Man is a globohomo shill. He knows that the side that butters his bread is the same one that says you can call yourself a woman if you feel like it. Does he actually believe it? Who knows and who cares.

 

[urr13 account]

All these fake TV scientists like Neil deGrasse Tyson and Bill Nye The Science Guy just exist as propaganda tools. Real scientists are people like Dolph Lundgren.

 

[Overwritten Tapes]

I think your math is off.

I also saw that, and even with a fever, I was like "what the fucking fuck?" There's a decimal move in the wrong direction or double typed number

 

[the clap]

Your question doesn't make sense Bill, I had breakfast yesterday, your scenario is unscientific
. . .
*Chirp*

 

[marvlouslie]

Bill is apart of the same problem. Flipping on an issue he was practically for three years ago. This is apart of his self preservation arc. He doesn't really give a shit about the issue at hand. He's just trying to remain relevant while Youtubers gain the audience he loses.

Maher's the "edgy" dem so he can get away with such heretical statements as 'white is not black' or 'men are not the same as women' and not be utterly ruined for it, so long as he is saying so in service of his party. And make no mistake, he is saying so in the service of his party; it's in the dems' best interests to jettison the troons and the ones in charge know it. Tyson does not have that privileged position and he knows that he'd be out of a job by the next morning if he agreed with one word of it, even if it becomes an acceptable opinion to hold in a year from now.

 

[That Chris Guy]

I would LOVE to see some Democrat fag just waltz in - bonus points for a tranny scientist kook - and declare that Pluto is ackshually a planet, and Neil would have to hide his seething tardrage and accept his contributions being completely reversed as a price for goosestepping to the Party drum.

It would be glorious.

Neil knows this shit is bullshit and it's ruining his field of study but he can't speak out about it because he'll get cancelled and lose everything. He has to constantly shut himself up when asked these basic questions because he knows the troon lobby is so powerful in the USA it could destroy everything he's worked for in a second if they wanted.

He doesn't realize this sort of thing completely undermines his field of study and his cowardice will probably not be looked down upon well after his death.

Thomas Sowell has been doing a fine job in spite of steep opposition. I respect him a great deal more than Tyson.

 

[CircuSphere]

This article keeps restating the same things, it reeks of AI and reading it makes me feel like Joe Biden when the drugs are wearing off.

I'm starting to believe that even the idea of these popular science celebrities is retarded. I like to get stoned and watch CGI renders of Jupiter's moons as much as the next guy but what does a shitty astrophysicist's opinion on evolutionary biology and neuroscience matter? It doesn't. It also doesn't matter how many arms you twist, how many 'experts' bow before your ideology.... men are not women and even a fucking 2 year old knows it. These gender fuckos can't and won't defend their batshit ideas, which is why we end up with Neil doing it. None of this matters, it's all bullshit, it's all distraction and deconstruction. Our enemy's deck is nothing but blue mana cards... when we expend resources on processing this shit they are already winning.

Pretty much. He spends the entire off season talking sense to white men and making himself sound smart and reasonable, then cashes it all in for Hillary or whoever else every election. He is also very connected and willing to do favors for democrats. Are you a scummy NY politician who has been caught sexting minors yet again (*cough* Scott Weiner *cough*)? Bill Maher will put you along side Ben Affleck and then say some edgy shit so that you and Ben can tag team him and the next day MSNBC (same parent company) will roll with it make you look like a feminist darling.

If you watch his old stand up and the monologue he gave when HBO got bought out you know what his real opinions are but he is a jew in media and therefor is about as trustworthy as gas station aphrodisiac packaging.

Thomas Sowell has been doing a fine job in spite of steep opposition. I respect him a great deal more than Tyson.

Sowell's an economist and political commentator he's allowed to disagree with popular opinion. It's often encouraged as it leads to higher book sales. He's also an ex marine and studied at Harvard and worked at places like Stanford. Creds that NGD could only dream of having. So if you go "lol what a moron" it's hard for the credentialist hyper fixated leftists to dismiss him outright.

NDT is a dude who knows planetarium trivia. That entire field is staffed with white guilt baby boomers and will eventually be staffed entirely by trannies. His black street cred will only go so far if he keeps being a nuisance they'll try to unperson him like JK Rowling. And he 100% doesn't have fuck you money like she does. They could also get virtually anyone else to say planetarium trivia on talk shows his job could be replaced with the snap of a finger.

 

[Otterly]

How would a troon dilate in space?

Quietly, so no one can hear them scream
