Thank you for addressing the issue of "owning", "slamming" and "destroying" people. It's inflammatory and a waste of time.
this is really awfull language, greetings from Europe
Mark and Lucy Weyland It was useful for a while when sjws were getting out of control. It was necessary when people started allowing men to compete with women, wage gap myth, etc. Now the progressives try to use those terms and they think they’re geniuses.
YES, now that he's solved this he can solve racism next week
hahaha nevermind the fact that Bill Maher has become a millionaire for doing all of the above
Mikey B Wtf? No, just no.
Wasn't expecting this from Maher, and he's left me pleasantly surprised.
It can be really difficult at times, but I prefer operating under "we're in this together" than "us versus them."
But you can't be together with people who insist on us vs them. The right doesn't want certain kinds of humans treated as humans. How can one come together with that?
It is us versus them when it comes to the oligarchy ruling class. If you don't know that yet look into donations to all of the ruling Democrats. They are bought and paid for by the richest of our country.
@RDE Lutherie WTF are you talking about? Name a single demographic anyone on the left wants to eliminate.
Nazis: let's get rid of nonwhites!
"Extreme left" No! And if you insist on trying we might have to use force.
RDE Lutherie: I cannot tell the difference between these two positions.
@Cellar Door A skewed understanding of history is not a demographic.
@Cellar Door When people start talking about eliminating Southerners, call me.
Despite my love of your quirky, satirical & sarcastic humor, this is my all time favorite message from you. Thank you for using your gifts in an effort to reconcile an angry & divided America.
He helped make it this way. Comparing Republicans to the Taliban, calling Bush Hitler, kkk members... He's literally been dehumanizing the other side for decades now, and now he wants to jump in the middle and act like the calm, rational one? LMAO. He's probably the most divisive figure in media.
@MarcusAurelius After reading your comment I quickly reviewed more of his clips from various time frames. I'm not a Bill Maher expert but he seems to be walking a fine line between political commentator and comedian with frequent missteps. He's said equally nasty things about both sides and satirizes all parties & persons although the advent of Trump has obviously changed his focus quite a bit. However, it's his opinion, he's not in public office & he's not fomenting violence. As Marcus Aurelius said, "Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth." I will concede that the name calling, comparisons and general rudeness have escalated in our country but I don't think you can place that on one person. In MY opinion, as unpleasant as it is, the current climate has exposed the abscess that lay below the surface of "civilized" American Society & Politics of previous decades. You have to express the putrefaction to allow a wound to heal. Hopefully we will move beyond this divisive moment to an America that is not what it was but has become something greater. Thanks for engaging me on this issue.
Yeah
Considering he is one of the biggest hypocrites there is !
This is like an Alcoholic telling others not to drink !! Lol.
@@TonjaHammel
No truth...huh ? Well that was Marcus's "opinion" ! As for as Bill not being in public office what does that really have to with being hypocritical or Lying ? He has a big platform and people will listen to him more and believe him more because of it. That ole saying has truth to it that "if you keep repeating the lie over and over again to people some will just believe it ". The media knows this and is notorious for it. As for as fomenting violence.... really? Well he has played his big part in it !!
P.S. Oh yeh...as for as him saying "equally" nasty things to both sides ! Lol...I guess you didn't watch to much did you ?...or know much about Bill Maher ?
why does it always have to fall on the progressive person to shut up and passively just let the asshole at the table go on rambling?
I appreciate that he’s at least trying to get along with the other side. We all need to practice more understanding
Totally agree. The hatred portrayed by each side towards the other side is an inevitable future civil war
He is trying to get along with the other side by silencing them and never giving them a voice? There are two sides to the Dem party. Bill only ever has one of the on. He mocks the other. That is not trying to get along or build a coalition.
Yes.
Bgg HD hhğ is GB hhhhhhhhhhhhhhghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhģhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhģ by hhhhhpj j.g and hggg
Lol, no he's not "trying" to get along with the other side. It is war with them, and that's all it will ever be. They want to literally punish and ban any and everyone who was ever affiliated with Trump or his campaign. Does that sound like making amends? Lol, they are the ones who will never act civil.
We used to be able to disagree, yet respect an opinion... How nice it would be to increase such faith in people.
I don't have to respect the opinions of someone who's opinion is that i am inferior based on the amount of melanin in my skin or the gps location of my birth.
@J Leicht you could go on spewing a bunch of false rhetoric. Why are you so concerned about trans issues? How is it any of your business what they do? No Democrat is advocating the abandonment of capitalism in exchange for socialism thats a blatant lie. You are exaggerating the situations to fit your narrative.
J Leicht fuck you republican criminal apologist
JLecht is a prime example of brainwashed programmed cult member. When Trump falls they will get aggressive. We should round them up and deprogram them. They get off on the pain they believe Trump is inflicting on the country.
We know who can't respect an opinion in ur country
I don't know who writes for Bill, but I respect those individuals. This is really one of their best pieces.
nkkogatse thato
Correct.
Bill is a performer.
The guy is smart, I'm pretty sure he comes up with this material himself. Stoner power :D
Bill writes the monologues and the epilogue of New Rules! He tries out both (I think!) with a test audience the night prior to broadcast and upon gauging the reaction of his audience, goes back and tweaks it! I really used to love Bill Maher but within the last year or so, I really went off him! However, every now and again he reminds me of how great he can be!!!
is that so? I always thought that every night time show has a bunch of writers who write the stuff read by the host.
double majored in English and history in Cornell.... He is smarter by 100000 percent than Jimmy Dore
This should be an ad that runs on tv every 30 minutes. I remembered it from the day it aired. So good. My God.
This has to be one of the best New Rules I've ever seen. He's absolutely right about Civil War. You see it now more than ever as we approach the elections.
He nailed this shit
You can thank the Media for providing the Battle Maps for the next Civil War. Just look at the *RED* vs Blue Political Districts any Main Stream Media corporation has on file. They can be very accurate down to the city block in some cases. Who needs the Mason Dixon Line when the Media draws the map for victory and updates it every election to current.
He's literally been comparing Republicans to Nazis and the Taliban for decades now. He helped create this, lol.
There was no fat on this one.
Well said. I will admit however, that when you are busy bailing out the boat, it's hard not to hate the guy who is drilling holes.
What he said!!!
Donald White, you say it right.
Mmhmmm.
Instead of hate you can always ask firts. What yoy fucking plan dude? Survival or suicide? And then trough him off the boat.
Duh! The holes are needed to let the water out. Obviously, you were never tutored by those great Americans Moe, Larry & Curly.
This was amazingly well spoken. Top of his game, right here.
Tragoudistros.MPH he’s why we need freedom of the press
You're right, this is his best. Hate, lies, threats. That's bill, his best is scraped off the bottom of our shoes!
@@catnapper7509 Whom did he express hatred for? What did he say that was untrue? In what way did he threaten you or others?
I agree with Bill on this one. That’s exactly what I want to see, seeing the good in others. All people have good in them and everyone should focus on that. Not trying to own others but coexist in peace and harmony. ✌️
The interesting part, and why he hits the nail on the head (for me), is he is practicing what his party preaches. His party, there is a loud faction whose actions caused the mess they inherited, but it's all our fault for not being woke and perfect like they are.
Hearing these wise words from Bill in late 2019 is like your doctor catching your cancer at Stage 4.
Robert Jensen better late than never.
@@mvygantas Technically true. But still Stage 4. And to make the metaphor actually work, the doctor would have had to have been pumping carcinogens into you up until the point he stops and says, "Ooooooh, boy. Hmm... Looks like you got the cancer, son. Let's put you on a chemo regimine stat!"
@@mvygantas No.
well in this metaphore, bill will be the guy who put cancer in everybody everyday since 3 years and say now " ho you know i have nothing to do in your cancer" so don't blame me ok ?
Sadly, he’s actually the only sane “Dr.”
While the rest of the “Dr’s” in this metaphor are still pumping you full of “carcinogens.”
So, I’ll have to take it over nothing. It’s an ‘olive-branch,’ so to speak.. so, might as well give it a try. 🤷♂️
At the very least, he IS accurately identifying the problem; albeit from a leftists point of view.
This is definitely one of Bill Maher‘s best speeches!
Deborah Carroll
His writers will get a nice bonus this year.
He should send Trump a gift for all the material he gives Bill.
Seems like Bill is like a terrier. Singleminded.
He used to be funny.
That was a HOME RUN of a final monologue to end the season. BRAVO.
(I too will learn to L.I.G.)
In my opinion, Mr. Maher is one of the most brilliant political commentators working today. But plus: the hate he refers to comes from fear. I know that he knows this, but hate, as an human reaction, generally stems from fear. That's all, thanks, pals :)
@@ameliacone2465 Bill Maher is a total COWARD that refuses to invite on any opposition to leftism out of fear his points will get nullified..... he only invites on FAKE OPPOSITION conservatives who will never challenge any important SJW issue liberals deem as holy to their religion of political correctness. Do liberals realize just how fuct they are if the ALT-RIGHT starts appearing on shows and debating leftists? This is why bill maher was so upset about being PWND- because he knows he can't invite on the opposition to leftism
Fake Revolutions msnbc invites fake conservatives that never push back too
@dizzymasekela I think you may be the real problem. Assuming you live in a building or eat food, 90%+ chance that is because of a republican. They are our farmers, constructors and CMV drivers. Dems do a lot of good dominating the medical and education fields, but we would starve to death with out republicans.
The 3 magic words in the family, "Don't talk politics."
Family should be able to though if you just think you disagree on things and you can get along.
The issue is that according to many surveys people don't see people who disagree with them politically as not being on the right side, rather they see them as immoral.
This used to be a phenomenon only common among Democrats and is starting to be more and more common among Republicans as well.
So true.
@@4realjacob637 You are joking, right? Pretty sure it was christian conservatives that saw the other side as immoral, or did you miss the crowds outside abortion clinics?
Haven't seen an audience missing the point of a monologue this hard in quite a while
think YOU missed the point -- Bill was announcing that he's become a pussy
Derrick Crane no, he’s just saying he’s trying to stop being a dick.
@@derrickcrane4290 You're an example of why this country is heading for another bloodbath of a civil war. Understanding that you just have to tolerate and live with people you fundamentally disagree with and will never agree with is seen as "being a pussy".
His live audience is the worst. Notice how quiet they were when he was rattling off the typical Democrat slams, but couldn't help cheering when he did the same for the Republicans.
@@ajervin4264He's a liberal and his audience is liberal. At least he can rattle off "typical democrat slams." repubs never criticize themselves, they only criticize democrats/liberals.
Damn Bill, ya got me in the heart right there. Happy holidays!
I felt that too,Mme. It was a powerful message of tolerance and the "We're in this together" mindset.
No... the reich wing is a global movement with vassal entities in countries around the world...
Likely what the missing trillions from us treasury is funding...
It’s nice to clap but the right wing is bent on ending all life..
Fuck you if you’re not in the fight...
Everyone you care about is at risk..
and his writers, of course.
72marshflower15 when I heard him it somewhat makes sense, in that don’t say struggling average Americans who are misled can’t be redeemed. Also the owning and destroying part lol... but yeah we shouldn’t stop fighting greedy corporations who don’t care about anybody but themselves.
This is the most wise I have ever heard Bill Maher.... and I agree with a lot of his views, but this was somthing extra. GG Bill
cdw442 Spot on!....such wisdom that it restores my faith in a better future😊
I don't agree with him on this. Not name calling or trying to "own" the other side is right, but the mentality of "let it go" or "just live with it" is completely wrong. There are things that should never be acceptable, and when you see it, you have to call it out. No matter how frustrating it is or how much you want to keep peace in your house, having a relative who thinks throwing kids in cages and the like is ok and just let it slide is not good. Just ignore it and think that "to each their own" is what embolden these kind of behaviors/thoughts in society.
@@Secret_Moon , but you think half of America is evil and your wrong, I have been to Alabama and Republican places, they are *human* with natural insecurities and stuff
@@nostrandholdings2324 How did you come from what I said to the conclusion that I think half of America is evil? I only said that *when* you see or hear it, you have to call it out, not looking the other way for the sake of peace. All that is needed for evil to win is for good men to do nothing.
@@nostrandholdings2324 And many of those HUMANS want to violate the rights of other HUMANS.
Well said, Bill. A message for all of us, regardless of one’s personal ideology.
4:36 - I remember Jordan Peterson asking about/saying pretty much the same thing when he was at the show and most ignored him, while some gave him the side eye. Glad to see Bill didn't..
I remember that too. People you disagree with won’t go away. They’ll move on to the next thing
@@fkrkf you think Dr. Peterson is a sociopath and a moron.. seriously?
"It's not left, it's not right. It's forward." - Andrew Yang -
you might be pointed in the wrong direction.
I liked Yang until he started supporting the partisan impeachment of the president.
@@TheGuerillapatriot - No, we aren't. I'm a Yang supporter, he unites people. Yang wants a better life for everyone. How is that wrong??
@@Icureditwithmybrain You mean the impeachment of the President over a crime that he literally admitted to on national television? The impeachment of a President for trying to intimidate and tamper with a witnesses while they are literally on the stand giving testimony that he tried to intimidate her into not testifying?
It's only a "Partisan" impeachment, because every Republican has already made up their mind about what the outcome will be before the investigation even started. They whine about investigations being conducted privately, as a "secret witch hunt" and then when the hearings become public, Republicans whine that it is just a "TV spectacle". Republicans whine that all the witnesses testimony is just hearsay, and then they block material first-hand witnesses from testifying. Republicans whine that the Democrats have already made up their mind about the outcome, while they say that no matter what evidence they see, they will never stop supporting the President.
So, yeah, when one side engages in a deliberative, thoughtful, and Constitutional process, and the other side stonewalls and has temper tantrums, and tries every possible way they can to disrupt that process, it does become partisan. But that's not our doing, it's yours.
The fact is, the only reason this impeachment is ABLE to go forward is because Donald Trump is so stupid that he can't stop admitting to crimes in the national media. He literally committed an impeachable offense yesterday morning, when he tweeted at Ambassador Yovanovich in an attempt to intimidate her while she was giving her testimony. Even if the Democrats had NOTHING until that moment, he just handed them an offense that they can legally impeach him for. And then there's the fact that both he, Rudy Giuliani, and Mick Mulvaney have ALL admitted publicly on TV that they did, in fact, attempt to exchange US Military Aid (aka Taxpayer Money) to the Ukraine for political favors to aid Trump's 2020 campaign.
Which he copied from AOC and Bernie and twisted it around 20 degres to make it sound authentic!
Absolutely excellent editorial; and a point that very much needed to be made. Bravo!
I don’t agree with Bill Maher politically in a lot of cases but still find him entertaining just as I find John Oliver entertaining.This however I can get behind. He makes some very good points in his monologue. We are in serious trouble if we as a nation continue down this destructive path.
John Oliver is not funny at all. He's not willing to say anything politically incorrect.
He just spews cherry picked nonsence people like him want to hear
@@4realjacob637 Everything doesn't have to be politically charged, moron.
@@bigwitt187 Why moron? Did you watch Bill's message? :(
@@4realjacob637 John Oliver says lots of things that are politically incorrect. Just perhaps not on the side you're looking for.
Wow Bill, you stunned me and brought tears to my eyes. Didn't think you were sentimental but the getting along bit is what we have to do. I remember being told and believed it was important NOT to ever talk politics or religion with relatives (I tried it long long ago but it didn't work then either). I will vote for whoever can beat trump...period!!!
Everyone on both sides need to see this.
Why? He talks from his ass
@@catnapper7509 lol, i thought it was his nose that did all the talking?
Why ..He is just a Red Shoe Club Member and he sounds like he is afraid
@OniKage i believe you just "owned" him
It's too late. The great divide is here, no middle ground to compromise on.
You know, I disagree with almost everything this man says, but I really appreciate the sentiment: someone can disagree with you, even fundamentally, and *not* be evil. Very refreshing to hear this coming from a mainstream personality. Can't believe I'm typing this, but... thank you, Bill Maher.
Thank you for being open to empathy. I should try to see the other side with more compassion and understanding as well.
We should be able to disagree without being disagreeable.
Trump is a criminal. That is a FACT.
There are no two sides to this. Be aware, they are using the holidays to brainwash you.
@Brian I make it a habit to actively seek out opposing views. Worst case it helps me understand the things I disagree with, best case I learn something that can be integrated into my own views. It's much more interesting than hiding in an intellectual closet.
And thank you for typing it too :)
"Magnanimity is often the best course in politics, and great nations and small minds go ill together." - Edmund Burke
I totally understand the whole motto: "Let it go". My father is a hardcore Republican, Fox News liking, Trump loving man, whereas I supported Sanders and Warren and Yang for the 2020 presidential race. I think he's crazy for the shit that he spews and he thinks my beliefs are equally nuts. The only reason we have not gone totally insane being required to be around each other for most of the day is by acknowledging that our political divide will not narrow and that's fine. I don't like my father for his politics, I like him for almost everything else.
Brilliant vocabulary Bill uses words explicitly . I admire his intelligence and sincerity.
LOWE sonia ... So right!
LOWE sonia probably your best words to date. This is a real and growing threat that only we can stop. We is all of us. Remember Pogo” we have met the enemy and he is us”.
Not to mention his verbosity and circumlocution.
@Devil Dub Steven Hawking . a compatriot. Was the most humble man who saw far beyond normal intelligent comprehension. He loved life as thwarted physically as it was. He was a man of quality in the sense of what is important . He tried to secure utopia for the human race .His research others continue. Such men are rare but they do exist obscure places in the world.. Being rich does not mean having wealth.
Thank you, Bill! This was excellent.
Oh how I love you, Bill Maher.
week after week Bill just literally pulls the thoughts that have been festering for years right out of my head! XD
So you're a secret Republican too?
Bil just dropping a little wisdom to end the year
Not really. It's basically just Hillary's "Deplorables" routine with a few added applause breaks.
Bill Maher is often funny but every once in a while he releases an Emmy worthy New Rules. This is one
Bill's got one hell of a program! Each and every time he never fails to hit the mark.
There's a reason this country was made heavily federal: because it's huge, both in acrage and in population. Which means that anything enacted federally is bound to feel tyrannical to tens of millions of people who disagree with it. That's why most policy prerogatives were designed to be devolved to states and cities. Want publicly-mandated universal healthcare? Do it in California. Want permissive gun laws? Have them in Nevada. Want a high minimum wage? Do it in Seattle. Or wherever you live. Low taxes? Move to Florida. And so on and so forth.
Local and state politics don't provoke nearly as much ire as federal politics do for the simple reason that they don't feel as tyrannical, even though it's often the exact same policies pushed by state Democrats and Republicans as their federal counterparts. If push comes to shove and you radically disagree with the policies forced on you, you still have the option of moving to another city or state that's closer to your political liking. Much harder to do when the law is forced on half the North American continent, which makes people feel trapped, and thus very angry. "The Almighty Federal Government will tell you which doctor to have, which plan to have, and you'll take it and shut up."
So one way to calm things down is to just keep in mind that not everything has to be done nationally. It should be enough for you to make your state the little liberal or conservative nirvana you want to live within.
the problem leftists have is if you allowed states rights, everyone will abandon leftism
Until the plague starts spreading from the filth and disease the big cities are just allowing to fester. Those officials must be brought to justice. Their cities are endangering us all.
That was working until states that charge a state tax were making states who didn't have one pay for it. Want more taxes? You don't get a break on fed taxes if you have state taxes.
It's not the 18th century anymore. We do not describe ourselves as a Virginian when we are abroad.
@hdyram Mary You sound like everything is related to race - re-read what you wrote - you referred to people by race, not by ideology. I suggest you get a clear look at yourself - you pretty much race baited throughout.
Nice piece, Bill. Nice way to end off the season. Happy forthcoming holidays to all.
Wow, one of the wisest videos I have ever watched. I love you Bill.
Yes, It's just so wise to make a new rule against "hate" while pushing your own brand of hate and propaganda. This is pure hypocrisy at it's finest.
Nope.
this clip deserves a jeremiah johnson head nod meme..
Thank you Bill for stating the truth.
The lack of empathy towards our fellow human beings is startling when you watch political rallies on social media and tv.
That was excellent, Bill!
Bill Maher, one of my intellectual role models, is the main reason for me not to lose faith in the U.S. Kudos from Berlin, Germany
How is that million plus refugee situation working out for you? Turning Germany into that socialist paradise that's been promised by the government?
He's your role model! LMFAO good luck
I wish we could make this mandatory viewing for ALL parties in this country.
There is a very clear distinction between my family and my relatives.
@josé granado if English was your first language you'd understand the distinction.
😎 "For a country that loves to look at pictures of entirely different species getting along, can't we try it in POLITICS"?--- Not bad Bill❗👍
I can't believe people are taking this seriously. Bill Maher has made a career out of treating the right like a different species, and all of a sudden he's trying to lecture everyone else. Give me a break
jnsdkljfn so he had an epiphany and you’re not going to give him a chance?
Those "cute pictures" are the actual opposite of how they behave in nature though lol.
@@easybreezy9666 I just think it isn't genuine. He was probably calling everyone in the south an inbred loser two shows ago. Like many people in the msm, Maher is confused and bewildered about politics in 2019, he's out of touch and doesn't really stand for much of anything anymore other than 'can we just go back to normal', so he's feebly waving his little white flag after a lifetime of spewing vitriol at people who oppose his views.
@thisguy He has made countless jokes like that about southerners and republicans throughout the years...don't blame me for pointing it out. Bill Maher is like this mushy centrist who wants everyone to just get along now, its all so phony. He's only doing it because everything has gotten so toxic but he doesn't acknowledge his part in creating that atmosphere

You're great Bill, honestly. No one else could preach a message of love and tolerance and still come off like a stuck up prick. That's why we love you 🧡
To be an atheist against organized religion, he's the best preacher since Billy Graham!
Being an atheist in favor of organized religion sounds more challenging
We just have to accept that some people really need religion in their life to help with cooping problems. For that, I'm in favor of organized religion. However, religious institutes cannot be exempt from the secular aspects of their operation. For example, banking/finance, general education, and cult behaviors that can endanger their members, therefore breaking laws. If religious institutes can be more transparent about their practices, they wouldn't have such a bad reputation.
As an added bonus, unlike Christians, he's not a paedophile.

Thank you for that comment. We are the ONLY country with Freedom of Speech enshrined in a Constitution, and even so there are people who would remove that right with hate speech laws. We must not let it go.

You are so right! I follow British news, and a man was recently arrested, handcuffed (in front of his 4 year old child) and taken away by 4 or 6 policemen for something he wrote on Social Media! I have forgotten what he wrote but I think it involved Islam.
@Thoreau They are? Didn't Trump repeatedly say he wants to open libel laws so he can sue anyone who says anything negative about him? Didn't know Trump was a leftist.
Henry David, free speech is protected in council law in the UK.
This was probably the best way for Bill to end 2019 as it's true. The thing is, how exactly do you work with someone whom you adamantly disagree with on every level, especially in regards to what direction the country should take? I feel like that question is likely going to determine where the country goes in the future.
For some reason, I'm not really that optimistic.
Agreed. Agreed.
Bush is a war criminal. I don't disagree with Republicans, I want them in jail for crimes.
One can disagree without getting personal. One can think the other is an idiot, without pointing it out.
The idear of "winning the argument" has lost its meaning (especially on the internet)... One "wins" if the other changes his or her viewpoint... Otherwise you just express your position, and the other doesn't accept it.
And it is highly unlikely that you disagree on every level with someone else... Fundamentals like friendship, family, interests in a specific subject, it will always be there, focus on that if you want... Or risk end up hating.
You can disagree, but focus on the issues not the personalities. I get why people are frustrated - a lot of the things they complain about i agree with. Rising productivity and stagnant wages, government that favours the well off more than the poorer people. Infrastructure spending Etc.
It frustrates me, and it pisses me off when concerns just get dismissed by some hipster liberal who then says democrats and republocans are all the same. You know the type - the ones who said Hillary was as bad as trump and didn't vote.
I spent thirty years in progressive politics and now i get told I'm not welcome because I'm just an old white guy - ok boomer - by people who divide everyone up into ever smaller groups and go on about inclusion and listening - and seem to think the opposite of talking is waiting.
I'm disillusioned and pissed off by liberals. I feel dismissed and ignored. And am a liberal. I agree with them. Imagine how liberals make conservatves feel.
If liberals spent as much time listening to conservatives as they do attacking each other, maybe we'd get somewhere.
You find common ground and work from there.
Wow!! Bill, this was totally great stuff!
Thank you Bill Maher I've been waiting for you to come back on air after Christmas time, needed your rational sense of humor, during this dark bleak time in our country your Royal Highness Bill Maher I was so excited to watch this show thank you so much I'm so happy you are back ❤️
Best message from Bill yet!
I'm thankful that I don't have Thanksgiving with relatives.
@SuperRegal79 That's awesome :) I hope you all vote Bernie though xD
@SuperRegal79 same here but we talk which democrat candidate is worse enemy of America.

*This is online lynching!!!*
Not when that hate is being directed towards you and your loved ones.
Missy this comment section is full of liberals too disconnected from real consequences of conservative policies.
It’s easy to let politics go if you think it’s a game.
It could be those same loved ones, is the point you seem to have missed, without getting into specific (obviously horrific) issues
But that is the whole point - Let it Go!
Bill Maher....you are the best. I admire your courage .... creativity.....and taking the risk to speak your mind....way to go.
I don't live in the United States, I live in Canada and this speech is as relevant up here as it is there.
Nice, Bill. Enjoy your time off now. Happy Holidays.
Bill I am a republican- you continue to amaze- I appreciate your perspective.
Keep that up and you will be drummed out of the club. :) :) :)
@Josef Copernicus You are the target of this video...please watch and re-watch and let it sink in
@Josef Copernicus the zionist line shows your true colors. Get under your bridge and actually watch the clip you just posted upon.
It's important to note that while we experience these political, religious, and ideological differences, we disregard these immediately when a neighbor needs help, when disaster strikes, when suffering is evident.
Accept the right are the ones who want to cause disasters. Fascism is on the rise, even in Europe. This isn't about treating each other well. There is a massive problem developing in society. And it's only going to get worse and if we "let it go".
That was not how it felt when Trump was working to deny Covid aid to Blue States.
That was a powerful & insightful speech.
I can be pretty critical of Bill, but this was a good video.
OMG, that Huckabee family photo Christmas card with the matching clothes....explains so much. Insane.
The irony of this lecture coming from Maher is priceless
yes absolutely he is as much part of the divide as other far left comedians but his one saing grace is that you can find vids of him shredding the dems as well.
@@bezretmet The irony has zero to do with his political alignment - after all, his defining rule seems to be a carefully curated ostensible unpredictability - but rather the irony of his appeal to "let it go" given he never does and regularly expresses contempt for people who don't see things the way he does. He makes his money precisely off of not "letting it go."
@@daveydudely9954 Very meta, making a joke about Alanis that demonstrates your failure to understand irony. Clever.
@@zweigackroyd7301 You are confusing "letting it go" between family members and straight not giving a shit when someone shits on your carpet. And you are confusing facts with opinions. What you want is for people to not be held accountable or criticized. And buddy, hate ta break it to yuh, yer not as smart as you pretend ta be.
I really enjoyed and appreciated this closing. Enough said.
I love how Maher said, 'We laugh at Lena Dunham,' and liberals were like, 'we do?'
I'm a liberal, and I laugh at her the same way I laugh at Trump--sarcastically.
I'm pretty liberal (at least by US standards) and I have no idea who Lena Dunham even is.
@@douglasjcox consider yourself lucky.
@HearthCricket You know, it's funny. For the party that allegedly supports violence and murder, you never really hear Democrats making lists of people who they intend to kill when the next Civil War starts. It's almost as if conservatives are itching for an excuse to perpetrate violence against others, and in classic conservative style, pretend that it's actually the other side doing it first in order to justify their barbarous bloodlust in their own minds.

Great final NEW RULE! Thanks Bill - hope everyone- not just in the USA takes heed

@@milton7763 thousands of years and they still suck! We have built what the rest of the world envies. Now we just have to stop the left from giving it away. Build that Wall! Deport daca dumbasses and traitors.
"We want you to succeed" is very different to "I hope for a recession so Trump doesn't get reelected" though Mr. Maher. I'm guessing this is a retraction of that comment?
Exactly what I was thinking. What a disgusting thing to wish on your own country. Doesn't he realize all the pain that causes? Suicides, addiction, homelessness? What kind of person talks like that and dares call himself "progressive "?
Go back and listen to the bit just before he said he wanted a recession now. He was saying that a recession is going to happen in any case. He only wanted it before the election instead of after. Since this appears to be a bubble and the more a bubble inflates the worse the pop will be, his request would actually be a good thing. To many, Trump's actions cause more long term harm than a dip in the market. Thus for them, the trade off is one that is best for the nation. I figure we will almost certainly see a dip soon. I am moving my investments towards more safety. When the dip happens, I will bargain hunt.
@@TEKnoir
Except if you go back and listen to the whole bit where he first says it, you will come away with a very different view on the matter.
"We want you to succeed", well at least Bush Jr. felt that way, none of the other Republicans did.
@@minyaw1234 A real analogy would be: Do you want to potentially lose your job now or watch your family die in a nuclear holocaust and slowly drip away from the radiation. Meyer thinks a civil war is possible. It's not. It's gonna be World War 3 after Trump has destroyed our government. Either way capitalism is coming to an end due to technology. Give Andrew Yang a listen to. The War on Normal People specifically.
Whoever wrote that segment needs to be the next Presidential Speech Writer. Damn. Summed up beautifully.
That was the most well said, no emotional music in the background, point I’ve heard in ages. I don’t always agree with you either Mr. Maher, but that was a great monologue. I hope you keep to your word and drop the name calling bullshit that’s run rampant in our culture of ‘discussion’. xo
Buff Justice ... I don’t mind the satirists name calling and calling out
But it has seeped into everyday talk and the ugly vitriol is scary.
I’ll also stop name calling, even in my head.
Do you want Bill to quit the name calling bullshit about Liberals too, or just the conservatives?
@thisguy Not sure you are capable of telling the difference.
It will be tricky for Bill and all of us who want to join him in cleaning up our act. For some people, "using the word "liar" is considered name-calling but for others it's just the correct word for "not telling the truth".
"The anti-intellectualism on the right doesn't come from stupidity. It comes from hate."
-- The smartest thing Bill Maher has ever said. I wish more people could realize this.
Um... As a "right winger" with an MFA and a "right winger" wife with a Phd, neither of us have any "hate". All we do is play video games, play with our son, play tennis, and enjoy our lives.
as someone who considered this to be true most of my life, if you think anti-intellectualism is purely a "right-wing" quality in 2019, you're fucking blind. The left has become just as bad in the last 10-20 years, in many ways worse, and unlike the right... the left's anti-intellectualism is picking up speed.
@C F I'M not self-aware?? You just called someone you have never met "insane" and said myself, nor anyone, had any excuse for voting for Trump. You didn't even give an example of what my hate could be of?? Please enlighten me because apparently I'm unaware.
@C F To be fair, he called himself a "right-winger", he didn't say that he voted for Donald Trump.
@@wrv341 He's right, that there is no excuse whatsoever for supporting Donald Trump, unless you also hate all the people he hates. Because it's obvious that hate and greed are the only two emotions he is ever driven by. The only things he ever does is attack people who he perceives to be his enemies, and attempt to enrich himself. For 70 years, that's all he's ever done.
The idea that anyone could look at this man and say "You know what? I'd like him to represent me in the White House" is patently ludicrous, unless that person's reasoning is "Hey, I also hate [Insert Group or Idea Here] and Donald Trump wants to destroy them or make them disappear. I'm totally on board!"

Yes, you can choose who you can invite to Thanksgiving. I spend the holidays with my best friend's family, because I like them more than my family.
Damn.
Lots and lots of Wisdom in between the jokes. Watch this often.
Objectivity in political matters lies in the acceptance of the strengths of all personality types. Far-left thought and far-right thought empirically don’t work for whole societies, but fervent centrists are no better because the fringe is sometimes correct on specific issues. I have come across libertarians who have prescient views on subjects like factory farming and the ”educational” system, for example. The issue with the American right, however, is that they elevate the businessman as superior to all other types of person, which is erroneous. The American left (center-right, really, opposing a far-right party) simply wants a system that gives everyone a little bit of what they need, and this is why the idea that both sides in the United States are equally at fault was always annoying. It is especially inane now that the conservatives are denying climate change in a time when the leading climate scientist Michael E. Mann is pointing out that we have even less time than the IPCC said we had in the 2018 report. Sadly, I fear that because the Union was founded by the English middle class, a group with extra-individualistic entrepreneurial spirits whose idea of far-left is anything left of Ayn Rand, there may simply have to be horrendous conflicts every once in a while, when the political discourse gets to an issue which is particularly serious. Objective people saw in the Antebellum era that the South was the problem and that the North was just reining in their massive egos rather than being some enemy of liberty. Likewise, those who have done their homework see that the right is the problem for not caring about the liberty of future generations to a livable environment. This is not some tragic play or Great Russian Novel where there is pathos from all sides being equally understandable. The European systems are built on recognition of the strengths of all types, whereas the philosophy of the American right immorally has, at its basis, the elevation of entrepreneurs as superior to all other types of people, which is intolerance. The left has a number of issues but nothing on the same plane as the climate change denial of the right. In addition, the right is now complicit with someone who wants Muslims banned from entering the U.S., tweeted that congresswomen of color should go back to their own countries rather than criticize the U.S., tweeted cartoons of himself beating up personifications of the press, and joked about Mika Brzezinski bleeding badly from a face lift. The chances of another civil war by 2030 look pretty damn good to me.
Superb writing thank you
Thank u thank you Bill.
Everyone is entitled to have an opinion… the problem is those who prefer to force their opinion on others in direct conflict with facts.
Bill talked about accepting the opposite side, but I guess he can also add to understand where they came from. Like you can't tell a religious person that God is fake, but you can convince them why everyone should be treated with love and respect using the words from the Bible. It's a lot harder, but when that's how communication works.
lovely one, Bill.
What the hell is wrong with sweet potatoes with marshmallow ?
Well done! This is what we need to understand to move forward.
One of Bill’s better and more “universalist” closers. Left out Al Franken’s improbable friendship with Jeff Sessions.
BTW...most of the Thanksgiving meltdowns that I’ve observed over the years have originated with family and relational history issues...not politics...but that’s just my own personal observation.
i just don't get this apocryphal thanksgiving dread; we ALWAYS have a TERRIFIC get together. good grinds, a lot of laughter & love...maybe because we understand that FAMILY comes FIRST. that's been MY fortunate experience & i'm eternally grateful for it.
hope you have a good one this year citizen, just remember to turn off CNN or MSNBC or FOXFUXFAX & enjoy the real blessings.
This was bias as shit
Wow one of the first times Bill used his persuasiveness to promote unity. He's a good talker, but all he ever did was divide and insult. I think he needed to hear this message as much as anyone else.
Lol you must not be Jewish.
One of the best New Rules I’ve seen!
I'll have to refer back to this video when Bill's on another tirade about religious people.
@8GarretttterraG8 Choosing to subscribe to a certain political affiliation is...somehow...different...?
@8GarretttterraG8 Since you're making the distinction between far right/left people and the rest of us, I'll counter by making a distinction between brainwashed religious zealots and religious people who are loving, kind, and altruistic; the kind of people Bill conveniently overlooks during his anti-religious tirades.
As a maga hat wearing republican, I must agree.
