    Ben Shapiro comes accross as being "on the spectrum", so to speak. That statement, that facts don't care about feelings is a troubling one. Humans have this concept of decorum, of politness, and it is USUAL to hide facts, not point them out, in respect of other peoples dignity.



    in the situations where he says this people are trying to bend the truth or outright lie by making vague accusations.

    look then say "facts don't care about your feelings" if you don't want it discussed. ITs like when Ben was confronting Zoey Tur and kept harping on about how Caitlny (And Zoey) are genetically male. In Ben's mind this is like some new imposition, and he can't seem to comprehend that it is no big deal to just call her "she" and move on, that politeness is not delusion.



    so are you saying shapiro handled that wrong? because "hanna zoey tur" grabbed him and threatened him.

    trans people have mental disorders and they need treatment. they have a high suicide rate and often regret their operations. they have a gender identity disorder. we shouldnt play into their bullshit. i'm not say be mean to them but i'm not going to play their game.

    I think Conservatives need a bit more self-awareness of how they come accross.

    people need more action and less bullshit.

    But .. what happened to the MAGA mantra of "Fuck your feelings" ? Does that not apply?

    You're the first person I have ever heard express that.

    THEY PRINTED T-SHIRTS THAT SAID "FUCK YOUR FEELINGS".



    who is 'they'? the democrats pretending to be trump supporters for tv?

    i never heard of fuck your feelings.

    Perhaps they mean "FACTS DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR FEELINGS" which is a
    phrase often said by Ben Shapiro? That's the only similar phrase I can think of.

    So, either you've been oblivious to the world around you for months, or being willfully ignorant. Either makes you look really bad.

    It really doesn't matter, though, because no matter what you say objective reality still exists... and it contradicts your claims.

    was selling trump flags for 10$, biden flags for 20$. Just did a search and found a "fuck your feelings" flag from Ohio for 5$.

    LOL ... I'm going to say this and I know I'm going to get grief for it, but...

    They simply don't care. The traditional conservative agenda is protection of self not that of others. Sadly, they're demonstrating that they do have feelings when their "Great Leader" fairly and legally lost the election.

    Modern conservatism is a bit of a confused cesspit. Actually, American politics is a cesspit in general. Conservatives are reactionaries who counter the Liberals lead, and they aren't really conservatives at all, much in the way that the modern Liberal isn't a liberal, but an authoritarian.

    I can respect the view of Conservatives like Roger Scruton, Patrick Deneen and Douglas Murray, but republican party free market full-of-bravado conservatism like Hannity, is nauseating. Whatever legitimate points that Milo Yiannopoulous made was overshadows by his trollish, abrasive persona.

    I do agree with the conservative principles of personal responsibility, having a community, less government intervention. It's just that some people mangle these ideas.

    Its a tough one, because saying the wrong thing can cost you your job in this authoritarian, PC theocracy.

    But I'll say this, I do agree that we should offer the most effective help we can, and that the best solution is the effective one with the least deleterious outcome. It is very concerning that people are required to believe that the answer is always a sex change, and that there might not be something else going on.

    A lot of people are going to have their lives irrevokably damaged from this.

    add that it also made it easier for the Nazis to do the rest of their dirty work later without as many non-Jews putting up resistance.

    Her comparision was between the Nazi-run press of the 1930's and the leftist-run US press of today. Both demonize/ed types of people in order

    the thing is, the jews were a minority over there but they took over everything.

    everthing was in shambles and that is what allowed hitler to take over.
    he made a lot of huge improvements. pregnant women were given free healthcare, huge interest rates on loans were outlawed. tons of stuff.
    unemployment improved. programs were created to protect the environment.

    pretty much everything hitler did was an improvement because germany was so bad back then. they were also all addicted to meth.

    the genocide and sending jews to palestine was the shitty stuff.

    Me too, and you can lump in a lot of the corporate world in that bucket. The more they talk of their "values", the more evil they become. It isn't just that she was fired, it was also that the media were happy to lie and misrepresent her. There is truly a lot of corruption in American leadership positions.

    Good to see she still has options. I have no opinion one way or the other in term of her acting skills, but if cancellation brings new opportunities, it makes the threats less effective.

    Thats what I read from her tweet, a warning of what type of thinking can lead to. The demonisation was more than just demonisation, it had to involve demonising anyone who supported the Jews, or those who were neutral on the matter. You see, it wasn't just the Jews they were after, it was any German who might be construed as being on their side. So people were afraid to speak up, and because few spoke it, it APPEARED that the population was with the Nazis. With the population scared to speak up, there is little opposition.

    There is another aspect, and that is the importance of the mission. Communism and Nazism made it as if there a massive existential threat. That we were at a crossroads, and the fate of humanity hung in the balance. They didn't just make out Jews to be troublesome, the SURVIVAL of the nation was at stake. Look at how leftists talk of this supposed bigotry causing genocide. They make out as if right wing views are killing people by the thousands, and imperiling us all. This drives justification, an urgency, it makes taking a life the lesser evil.

    Time and time again I see rhetoric which would easily justify murder later on, and its a worry, it really is.

    Agreed. Maybe not at this minute but if we ever swerve too far left,
    towards communism or some other collective "greater good" path, there will
    be trouble for those who do not comply.

    There is another aspect, and that is the importance of the mission. Communism
    and Nazism made it as if there a massive existential threat. That we were at a

    crossroads, and the fate of humanity hung in the balance. They didn't just
    make out Jews to be troublesome, the SURVIVAL of the nation was at stake. Look

    at how leftists talk of this supposed bigotry causing genocide. They make out
    as if right wing views are killing people by the thousands, and imperiling us
    all. This drives justification, an urgency, it makes taking a life the lesser
    evil.

    Time and time again I see rhetoric which would easily justify murder later on,
    and its a worry, it really is.

    Agreed. Maybe not at this minute but if we ever swerve too far left, towards communism or some other collective "greater good" path, there
    will be trouble for those who do not comply.



    The "Communist-Capitalist" dichotomy or axis is not useful as an explanatory model anymore. It is clear that Capitalist entities, CEO's, large companies, big finance, big tech are on the same side as the "communists". Using the term implies that the point of difference is public vs private ownership of the means of capital, and public vs private renting of people, but that isn't the debate.

    This is part of why I think conservatives are losing, many are still fighting the ideological war of the 1940s and 1950s, and are obsolete.

    Woke activists aren't really concerned about this.

    What they are is closer to a religion.
