Part 3 (and final!) of this terrible New Rules segment from Bill Maher last month. Maher attempts to go after socialism in America and the Democratic Socialists organization, and comes up with WILD examples. Reminder - this is all in an effort to scare people away from Zohran Mamdani. We tackle some debunks here related to the DSA platform and city-run grocery stores, and end the series with knocking down his characterization of a DSA convention that he had time traveled to in order to use the most ridiculous example he could come up with.

WTW106: Oklahoma Christian Idiot Gets a 0, Then Uses Christian Privilege to Get Teacher Fired

Every single time the right, or even center-left, goes ballistic over a "woke" controversy, the slightest bit of investigation shows the scandal is almost entirely bogus. This is not a new phenomenon; it dates back decades. It's an intentional tool used to protect the powerful and preserve the status quo, while further scapegoating and otherizing those who push for political progress. This podcast digs into not just today's fake scandals, but those of yesterday and yesteryear. The terminology has changed some, but the pattern has not. Listen in as host Thomas Smith shines a light on the panic, the fragility, the overreaction, and the lying that ignites 'Where There's Woke.'
