They were on search and destroy mode, screaming in your face, complaining to your superiors daily and insisting you be fired, getting online with other parents of your students to start bad feelings with them, all over the most miniscule misunderstanding. This is how younger adults are today. God help us.

“Perpetually offended”, that’s a good one.

Bill is the man!

One of the best New Rules all year because it DOES encapsulate what's wrong with the major newspapers--who are really the only ones left breaking news stories. We depend on The New York Times, The Washington Post, and a handful of others to actually break stories, and they simply don't anymore because too many of them just scroll through Twitter looking for trends to write about OR only cover "MeToo" stories because those women in live in NYC/LA/DC and they can go meet them for lunch 3 minutes from their office.

This is as on-point as you can get. There's so much going on in the world that actually deserves our attention and energy.

I’m a Millennial, and I thoroughly enjoyed this “New Rules” segment. Bill Maher is great! I may not agree with him 100% of the time (I don’t agree 100% of the time with anyone), but I’m a big fan. There are just way too many folks in my generation that cry about being offended and want to ruin someone’s life over offensive statements. And yet, too many don’t vote, don’t try to actually solve problems, and instead try to show how morally pure they are while causing major damage to our country. That’s not “fighting for social justice”. That’s just “being an asshole!” This cancel culture could wreck our democracy. Btw, I’m not a Trump Republican, I’m a Liberal Democrat, but most importantly, a liberal democrat.
