Looks like Mr. “Facts don’t care about your feelings” got his hurt.
Oh well.

1 ReplyBen used to be such a sharp guy till ego got in the way.

2 RepliesI have to say, the interviewer did a piss poor job at asking questions. Maybe he was trying to play devil’s advocate, but he did it in such a ham fisted way that it was impossible not to read his comments as intentionally antagonistic. That said, I don’t really like Shapiro. Anyone who says “sir” so many times deserves to get his lunch money stolen.

2 RepliesI read Shapiro somewhat regularly, because it's useful to keep up with the absolute peak of Conservative intellectualism, but as far as I can tell from how his recent media tour to promote his book is going, he's literally never debated anyone in his entire life

5 RepliesHere’s a pretty good article I read about Ben Shapiro a few years ago. Basically his whole shtick consists of smugly asserting “facts” that aren’t actually facts. If you say it with enough confidence apparently people will believe you. https://static.currentaffairs.org/2017/12/the-cool-kids-philosopher

Ben Shapiro's an ass.

1 ReplyThe first video I watched of Ben Shapiro I honestly thought he was a very intelligent chap. Then I noticed a pattern of “just name what statistics, and facts align with your one sided view, and say confidently that everyone else is wrong” garbage.

He acted like a complete baby. All the host of the show did was ask him about his own past comments. It wasn't in an accusatory or mean way. Shapiro's response was to start attacking this man, who is a highly respected journalist in UK w a long career. He came across as a totally arrogant and entitled dbag. It was a poor reflection on him individually and on ppl from U.S. People in UK totally think Shapiro acted like a complete asshat.

Edited by Ogma: Destroyer of Worlds: 5/12/2019 11:43:54 AMSo, the interviewer brought up the topic of the currently polarized state of political discourse in the US, specifically noting the “coarseness” of it, and then brought up things that the interviewee has said in the past and wanted him to comment on the weight and potential contribution to that current state of discourse? The horror! 😱 Poor Shapiro..... 🙄 Imagine being held accountable for the things you’ve said!?

Then debate him.

3 RepliesEdited by LittleLight: 5/11/2019 6:20:25 AMI respected his views a bit until now. His popularity is like a veil in front of his eyes. He's so egotistical now; like he wont talk to anyone with his rapid voice unless he is sure that they are a "weaker" opponent. [spoiler]He shouldn't have ever been on meme review.[/spoiler]

I liked him until I realized he is just as bad with identity politics as those he hates.

BBC Lol.
