Comedian Bill Burr says 'I f---ing hate liberals' at UC Berkeley show, calls out hypocrisy
'If you run into a White person who says they’re an empath, run the other way,' Burr told the audience
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Comedian Bill Burr called out the hypocrisy of liberals during a show on UC Berkeley's campus over the weekend, reportedly telling the audience that he "f---ing hate[s]" them.
Burr, never one to shy away from controversial topics, covered everything from his relationship with his wife and the ongoing Israel-Gaza war, to transgender rights and Biden's cognitive decline, before wading into his issues with liberals, the San Francisco Gate reported.
"I f---ing hate liberals," Burr reportedly told the audience on Saturday. The outlet said it was clear he was referring specifically to "White liberals," and that he took issue with their hypocrisy, not necessarily their political ideology.

"That’s like if I told you my great-grandmother in Germany had a ‘Knock it off, Nazis’ sign," he said, according to the outlet.

At a different point in the show, Burr seemed surprised at how the Berkeley crowd laughed at a joke about President Biden having dementia, SF Gate reported.
This isn't the first time Burr took the opportunity to air his frustration with liberals in public. He told Jimmy Kimmel in an interview last year that anti-Trump "idiot liberals" were making a martyr out of former President Trump by charging him with crimes.

"Liberals are so f---ing stupid, the way that they handle Trump," he said at the time. "You should shut up! He's a narcissist. Neutral energy. Neutral."

Burr, who predicted Trump and Biden would be nominated by their respective parties, said he hoped they'd both "die of natural causes" so that "maybe you could get somebody that still has something to live for."

Burr agreed that liberals like to use certain groups as "props."

Burr did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.
