Bill Maher criticizes Hollywood's virtue-signaling and calls for an end to the practice if Democrats want to regain power. He specifically mocks Julianne Hough's land acknowledgement at the Oscars and questions the sincerity of such gestures. Maher also challenges the glorification of indigenous traditions and points out the violence and flaws of pre-modern societies. He argues that modern civilization, despite its flaws, has led to progress and improved treatment of others. Maher concludes by comparing New Zealand's mountain law to America's concept of corporate personhood.
