+1 yEven when I agree with him on a political position, we disagree wildly on the rational behind our support for it. And those cases, Ben and I agreeing with each other, are not exactly common. So much of his rhetoric is moronic. His stances on Israel, drugs, LGBT, religion, the need for the government, etc. I love how he calls himself a libertarian, yet he wants the government to control every aspect of ones life. People like him and the Kent state gun girl are embarrassment for any actual libertarian out there.

+1 yI don't have much of an opinion on him. I see his videos pop up in recommended section on YouTube sometimes. He raises some good points here and there but I just don't find him particularly credible. I much prefer Jordan Peterson who actually has an academic and clinical background. Shapiro's machine-gun style of oratory is kinda off-putting too. Like, saying more syllables per minute doesn't make you look smart, it's just annoying.

Kind of embarrassing but I used to be a kind of a fan. Me and my grandma would watch him together eek. Looking back now I don't think I would ever watch him, he's very condescending of anything he doesn't like and is very critical of the lgbt community. Eyebrows on fleek tho 🥶

+1 yA fool who loves to debate college kids in manipulated circumstances but refuses to debate anyone who he knows might actually challenge him I mean, this interview was gold😂😂😂:

Not sure what the video has to do with your point; Shapiro held his own in this interview and, on the contrary has debated and offer to debate many politicos and alleged left wing 'experts' only to be rebuffed or turned down. If they are as convinced in their convictions as they pretend, I would think these 'experts' would relish the opportunity but they never do...

@Open2It My point is, when it’s a college student in a room full of your supporters it’s fine, when it’s a journalist challenging his points- he runs away.
Not to mention his points in this interview were just🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️🤦🏾♀️
“I’m more popular than you”
And accusing Andrew Neil - one of the UK’s most right-wing journalists - of being ‘left-wing’ simply because he’s challenging him?😂

I don't agree with much of what he says, his "intelligence" is vastly overrated, and he's a sh*tty debater (he plans a lot, but he also just talks over people and doesn't actually consider others' viewpoints, which just makes him "good at being loud and saying a lot," not debating). However, he's an intellectual "genius" compared to most people on the left, nowadays. In the culture war, I would consider him neither foe nor ally.

Actually, he kinda reminds me of Bill Maher, another pseudo-intellectual. Back when I used to be young and Liberal, I would watch Real Time with Bill Maher (in 2005-2010). Then I grew up and realized how one sided and myopic Maher was. Shapiro is the same way.
And honestly, anyone who thinks pure conservatism or pure liberalism is the "right" path for America, likely was never smart to begin with. A mix of both (or perhaps neither) is what's best for America. The best solutions are never black and white choices. I don't think Ben Shapiro realizes this. Or he does and just tows the Republican line anyway for money. Which would also make me lose respect for him.
He's alright... a bit abrasive and misses the forest between the trees on a lot of things. I don't think he always realizes just how privileged he really is. Grew up with tons of money and hollywood connections. His success is less a result of his insights than a result of his connections in life. I don't mean that as a dismissal in any way. I have a lot of respect for everything he has achieved, he just had a significant head start over a guy like me.

+1 yProbably the wittiest commentator I've heard of given his ability to always give sharp and instantaneous retorts. I don't agree on exactly everything he believes when it comes to subjective stances such as; "the government sucks at literally everything", but factually speaking I have yet to find him lacking in any discussion.

20 ReplyBen ROCKS!! I love, when he just totally PUTS DOWN the Liberal D-bags, on guns, and gun control!! He wrote a book, about the Liberal BULLIES, and how they are deceiving everyone, and controlling people, like the Nazis!!

+1 yCan't stand him! His voice is too high, he talks way too fast and he's always looking at you through his eyebrows!! Although he's usually on the right side, some of his views I don't agree with.
Is that you, Ben?10 Reply If I were arguing with a liberal I would love to have him with me! Very smart guy!
21 Reply8.1K opinions shared on Society & Politics topic. Meh. He's ok I guess. I don't agree with him on a lot of things but he seems like a decent guy. I find it hilarious when leftists call him a Nazi even though he is an Orthodox Jew.

+1 yA rich source of misinformation, such as
https://youtu.be/nS4Qv0YC6kU11 Reply- +1 y
Recently he did do a video on money printing and the Federal Reserve, which was pretty smooth-brained.
For example, he didn’t understand what quantitative easing is, what open market operations are, what kind of overall policy the Federal Reserve pursues and who the important people in the decisions on monetary policy are.
He does wear a funny hat, for a guy who acts really smart.
Other than that he is alright i suppose, has made few good points over the years.00 ReplyJust rehearsed as most actors are. Find a topic he hasn’t discussed and he is useless
