Opinion What's the consensus on Ben Shapiro around here?

[Brodels]

I love listening to him make people look stupid. I hope he changes his mind about running for office one day.

Here he proposes expelling all palestinians from palestine to keep Israel jewish.

I always knew that Shapiro was an asshat, but I didn't know that he was a total piece of shit.

A lawyer and director at the NAACP is random black person lol? You are just trolling now

Compared to a Harvard trained lawyer, yes.

 

[Phelly2]

hahahahahahah

Sorry, I missed the joke.

What's funny?

Who do you listen to?

 

[Rational Poster]

Keep displaying how little you know of the situation.

Lol, Roy Moore was a shit tier candidate before he was an accused child rapist. Trump even backed his opponent.

White knighting for him now is so fucking chringey I really don't understand it.

Page one itt needs more @LogicalInsanity posts, IMO.

My general problem with Shapiro is my problem with all cultural warriors: the culture wars are a distraction to meant keep people from voting on pragmatic issues.

I expected him to eviscerate Cenk from TYT when they had a debate, mostly based on Cenk being a can. I was fairly surprised that it was, at best for Shapiro, a draw.

He really should stick to debating kids off the street who can't challenge his references.

I look forward to Ben and Sam Harris on his pod cast that they've said would happen. I doubt Ben will be able to hold his own there but I will be very interested in the abortion conversation.
Would be interested on your take of Harris and Peterson's exchange as well.

 

[ultramanhyata]

Never seen anyone get one over on him in a debate either.

Yeah. No one shows a nervous, random, mumble-mouthed college freshman who's boss like the Benster.

 

[ultramanhyata]

Watch his debate against #BLM activists and the head of the local naacp chapter...it was almost cringe worthy....

They absolutely had nothing for Shapiro...

But who do they have anything for?

Roy eventually stopped trying to force that girl's head down on his dick. Let's give credit where it's due.

 

[Soul Rebel 2]

Too informed by his religious beliefs to be consistent.

 

[Big_Chief_Stove]

Shapiro is savage

Yeah that's the column I mentioned earlier in this thread...truly an awful column. Small government lol...he's fine with the redistribution of people but not wealth.

Holy shit... He doesn't even put on a pretense of objectivity or humanitarianism in this piece.

I don't think I've ever read such a naked display of Arab-hating Zionism short of something out of Lehava.

 

[Islam Imamate]

Nothing more to offer than this stupid gif and ad hominem attacks...

He was responding to a stupid ad hom. As if attending Harvard in your late 20s is something that invalidates the achievement of attending Harvard at all.

Perhaps he oversimplifies it. But it's pretty clearly a mental disorder. If it's a mental disorder to think you're fat even when you're actually severely underweight (body dysmorphia), then it's a mental disorder to think you're a woman when you're actually a man (gender disphoria).

Yes, I know, people will try to make a distinction and say that gender disphoria (previously known as gender identity disorder) is not a mental illness because the DSM says so. But they fail to explain why people with gender disphoria have a 40% lifetime attempted suicide rate, regardless of whether they get gender reassignment or any other treatment recommended by transgender activists. They will argue that the 40% suicide rate is only because they're treated badly by society, but that number is only affected by a couple of percentage points for people who are never misgendered (I.E., people who actually look like the sex they want to be)

Actually I think its still classified as a mental illness in the most current DSM.

"Ethnic cleansing is okay when we do it"

 

[ultramanhyata]

He's mentioned he would have been more accepting of Gay Marriage being legalized if it had been passed in the Congress and Senate then signed by Obama. Instead, it was imposed upon five judges that are never up for reelection.

Being consistent, I'm sure Ben feels the same way about Citizens United.

 

[JonesBones]

He is a classic INTJ. Great thinker, totally rejects any feeling values. They have no place in rational discussion. Great debater. Nimble mind. Overemphasis on logic is problematic though. Not all things can be solved with 100% logic and no other tools.

When I say great thinker I don't mean he is Kant or something. Or even smarter than me. But he is great at chopping logic. That is what a thinker looks like in personality types. Thinker to the fuckin bone. Not all thinkers use as much thinking as him though. He is really an extreme example.

Thank you, MSNBC, you can go away now.

 

[Rational Poster]

Thank you, MSNBC, you can go away now.

Nope, still here.

Please tell me how a candidate Trump campaigned against is suddenly more viable now that he's an accused child rapist.
