Maherist

A follower of the cultural and political doctrines of Bill Maher. See Maherism.

You could call that friend a "perpetual skeptic" or a "vocal non-participant." Another fitting term might be "armchair critic," as they critique others’ ideas without ever committing to a stance themselves. This way, they maintain an air of being "right" by default since they never fully engage in the discussion or take a definitive position.

We just called them Maherist!

Like a Margarita but consists of ice and marg mix.
Salt the rim, and if feeling frisky, add a slice of garnish or a lil festive umbrella for flare

Maherism

**Maherism (noun):** A cultural and political ideology characterized by contrarianism and scapegoating, often exemplified by a tendency to challenge mainstream opinions while humorously critiquing the past without offering constructive solutions for the future. Followers, known as maherists, are masterful at being "always right" by never committing to a position, allowing them to critique others’ ideas with impunity. They revel in the absurdity of political discourse, using satire and irony to express their views while maintaining a perpetual air of superiority, as they declare, “See, I told you it wouldn’t work!” whenever an alternative fails.

My friend, studies Maherism every Friday night on HBO.
