Bill Maher lashed out at Gen Z Friday for seeming to care about climate change while being addicted to a lifestyle that prioritizes convenience, luxury, and consumption.
“In polls, young people always claim to be more concerned about climate change than other generations, but they don’t act like it,” Maher said on HBO’s “Real Time With Bill Maher.”
Maher said that while Greta Thunberg might be the conscience of her generation, she does not represent it. Instead, Kylie Jenner, who has about 279 million Instagram followers – more than 21 times the number of Thunberg’s followers – represents her generation, Maher said.
