literally during a conversation with Neil deGrasse Tyson, Ben Shapiro brought up trans people because of course he did i mean he seems obsessed with them, and while Neil's take on everything was generally a verbal shrug of the shoulders, paraphrasing: "Trans people exist and we should work to understand and accept them and we shouldn't legislate to restrict people's rights especially based on fear and made up nonsense" and Ben Shapiro smiled and said "Well if people want rights they should beat me in a debate" I'm sure he'd say he was joking but I'll probably never forget it, like wow Ben tell us how you really feel
"Henceforth no citizen shall enjoy any rights unless they are capable of defeating the self-appointed arbiter of personhood in a debate. But be warned, he will only ever argue in bad faith, has unmatched endurance when it comes to moving goalposts, and if he senses an impending defeat he will simply rattle off a haphazard list of logical fallacies before declaring himself the victor and storming off. Also he will only accept challenges from those who have yet to earn a high school diploma."
If Ben "DAP" Shapiro wants rights he should have to beat me in a cage match. If he's putting arbitrary limits on why people get rights then everyone else gets to do the same to him.
Nah, he should have to beat that trans MMA fighter in a cage match.
lol fair's fair
Top tier bullshit is Shapiro's speciality.
Ben Shapiro is a fucking idiot and nothing he says should be taken seriously.
very true
i'm afraid i just pulled an all nighter and am deliriously tired so i can't think of anything else to say except SELL THEM TO WHO, BEN? FUCKING AQUAMAN?
i'm going to bed night night
Ben Shapiro: DEBATE ME DEBATE ME DEBATE ME!
