Out promoting his new film "The Hateful Eight," longtime libertarian Kurt Russell opened up again about his politics, this time to the Daily Beast, where he pointed out an obvious fact: that Bill Maher is nothing close to a libertarian. "I'm not a Bill Maher libertarian," Russell said. "That's faux-libertarianism. He doesn't know what it is. I like him, and he's a nice guy, but seriously, that's not libertarianism."

Bill Maher isn't any sort of Libertarian. He only uses that term in the hipster sense because it is popular to be an outsider but nothing I've heard him stand for comes close to being a Libertarian.

Mr Russel is right. Looking at Maher's body of work he is a Libertine not a Libertarian
