Responses that completely destroy the original argument in a way that leaves little to no room for reply - a targeted, well-placed response to another person, organization, or group of people.

The following things are not grounds for murder:

Personal appearance ("You're fat", "You're ugly")
Posts with little-to-no context
Posts based on a grammar/spelling error
Dick jokes, "Yo mama", "No, you" type responses and other low effort insults
"Your values are bad" without any logcal or factual ways of showing that they are wrong ("I believe in capitalism" - "Well, then you must be evil" or "Fuck you you ignorant asshole")

Rules:

Be civil and remember the human. No name calling or insults. Swearing in general is fine, but not to insult someone else.
Discussion is encouraged but arguments are not. Don’t be aggressive and don’t argue for arguments sake.
No bigotry of any kind.
Censor the person info of anyone not in the public eye.
If you break the rules you’ll get one warning before you’re banned.
Enjoy the community in the light hearted way it’s intended.

That original tweet is so slimy.

Honestly, if young Bill Maher had known what old Bill Maher was going to become, he would have killed himself.

I'm old enough to remember young Bill Maher. He was always a sanctimonious piece of shit. Age just turned him into a sanctimonious rich sleazy douchebag. Taking a shit on a pile of shit still leaves you with a pile of shit

Remember when Bill Maher was a gruesome twosome with Ann Coulter? Or was that some mad fever dream I had?
