I don’t know what his religion has to do with anything. Stop making everything about identity politics.
Alt-Right are anti-semitic. So to refer to a devout orthodox Jew as a member of the Alt-Right is retarded. And btw, you've become the king of identity politics.

If you are suggesting that a Jewish person can’t be an anti semite, then I would suggest you take it up with Ben Shapiro.

That's why I specifically said "orthodox Jew", you Mr. Strawman you
Why exactly does being orthodox matter? Does that make Ben more Jewish? A better Jew? Non orthodox Jews are in some way lesser and therefore capable of being anti Semitic?
It seems like what you’re saying is Ben, the real Jew, can’t be an anti Semitic traitor like Glenn Greenwald. I’m hopeful that is incorrect and you mean something else. Please explain if I’m wrong.
I cannot understand what has happened to my lone liberal cool bro APAG. Ah well, things change and I can handle the ups and downs of AOC the bartenders cult of personality I suppose.
Point of order though - Ben Shapiro, whether he hates Jews or not, is not some small time guy. He is actually becoming a pretty big player in the ultra conservative uber intelligent great policy debater circles of the world. It is known Jon Snow.
Impressed Yang would do this - Shaprio routinely destroys everyone with his grasp of policy and keen intellect, so even going on there takes balls of steel and true belief. Of course I don't agree with most of his policies, but I automatically like him more than all the rest of the field because he is likeable, rational and has a strong command of the issues - unlike most of the retards the Dems have shit out to run this cycle.
I'd pay anything to see AOC debate him on any topic of her choosing. The destruction would be legendary.
It’s funny to see the right just admit that debates aren’t for arguing policy and changing peoples opinions but for some kind of theatrical domination of the side they don’t like. It’s also why debates are dumb in the first place.
Having surveyed Shapiro’s work, and pointed out the various ways in which he is not terribly logical, not terribly consistent, and not terribly well-informed (in addition to being not terribly humane), it is worth asking why so many people think of him as a “principled” and “brilliant” dismantler of arguments. The answer, it seems to me, is largely that Shapiro is a very confident person who speaks quickly. If he weren’t either of these things, he wouldn’t seem nearly as intelligent. Because he doesn’t care about whether he’s right, but about whether he destroys you, he uses a few effective lawyerly tricks: insist that there’s “no evidence whatsoever” something is true, demand the other side produce such evidence, and when they stammer “Buh-buh-buh” for two seconds, quickly interrupt with “See? What did I tell you? No evidence.” Or, just pluck some random numbers from a study, even if they’re totally false or misleading, e.g. “40% of transgender people commit suicide and the risk doesn’t go down if they are treated better,” which was nonsense but sounded good. Cross-examine people with aggressive questions that confuse them: Are you a moose? I said: are you a moose? No? I didn’t think so. I rest my case. Use shifting burdens of proof: demand a wealth of statistical evidence before you will admit that black people face any unique hardships, but respond to every criticism of the Israeli government by calling the speaker a “proven” and “undeniable” anti-Semite. Disregard all facts that contradict your case, but insist constantly that the other side despises facts and can’t handle the truth. Call your opponents “nasty,” “evil,” “brainless” “jackasses.” All of these techniques work very well, and with them, you, too, can soon be Owning and Destroying your political opponents on camera. (I would probably lose a debate with Ben Shapiro quite badly, as my instinct in public conversations is to try to listen to people.)
Whatever your thoughts are about Shapiro, he paying for his wife's medical school free and clear (12 years of school) clearly succeeded financially and a listening base larger than anyone here.
So many people hate others success. Whether you take him seriously or not he has been able to navigate himself from a public perspective with influence.

Don’t worry, you can catch Bernie on Fox News in about a week. Big time high octane socialist town hall on America’s number one news network.

He's an aggressive fast-talking bullshit artist
