Where is Venice?

So I am not as old as Bill Maher but closer to his age, than I am to millennials. But I honestly don’t get his obsession and disdain of young people. He did this podcast chat with Dr Phil the other day where both of them, similar to the two grumpy old men from the Muppets, bitch and complain about young people. As if they and their generation where the shining example everyone should aspire to. They bring up how dumb young people are using videos of people asked mostly history or geography questions. Own example Bill Maher brings up is a person being asked “Where is Venice” responding with “Is it Paris?” … then he laughs how stupid the young person is and ends with “these young people don’t even know what a continent is.” … really and it looks to me like Bill Maher and his stupid generation doesn’t seem to know what a city or country is because the logical answer to Where is Venice, would really be either Italy or Los Angeles. Yes, Venice is in Europe but unless the question is which continent is a city on the logical next question would a city is in a county. But maybe they didn’t teach countries in school when Bill was young. Also making fun of random people, taken off guard had a long tradition. As a German I remember how all the way back to the 70s and 80s TV shows made fun of “dumb Americans” who didn’t know geography.
So Bill Maher, maybe talk to young people and realize how smart a lot of them actually are before you make yourself look like an old, angry, fool.
