Ben doesn't have a chip on his shoulder. He is brutally honest as well as highly intelligent. If you learn more about him you might be surprised and actually become a fan.
Personally I am a massive fan of his.
@@kathleenfederl5121 Me too. I take a break from everyone for awhile, but I love him.
Very true
And people can't see that. They have to hate on him.
As a poor white man I find it hard to understand how I have more privilege than a black congresswomen....I don't like identity politics...I believe we are all individuals with unique backgrounds and struggles.
It was even crazier to hear Oprah say a homeless whîte guy still has “whîte privilege” and her guests agree with her. A billionaire saying that a homeless person living on the street struggling everyday and eating out of garbage cans is still “privileged” (and stating because of skin color is more privileged than her).
Barefoot growing up in the rural South trailer park, I missed White privilege card day ...
Everyone has privileges depending on their circumstances.
The white privileges are there and vary in potency, person to person group to group in the country.
But that is one of many privileges. like being tall and being wanted more so than shorter men, having a lot of money and being treated better by people, ect.
We all have privileges, and to a majority of people have societal barriers we have to overcome as well(poor, amputee, language barrier, sight barrier, brown skin barrier). So it does exist however we should all be respected at base level for being a person. (It may be hard to see the wind, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist)
This
@@marty2970 But, "white" privilege only exists insofar as whites are the majority. The builders, even, of the society these people are living in.
It would be like me moving to Lagos, in Africa, and then pouting about how their society is set up to benefit them, and not me. It's ridiculous.
Bottom line: you can’t fight racism with racism. It leads us down a dark path.
Sadly it's already a dark path
@@andreadeamon6419 True, but it can always get worse, and that will never get better.
@@do_odman uhhh no. Things can always be worse but things cannot maintain forever. Law of entropy.
Also fires are a good metaphor for this argument. A fire may be small and if we were to add more fire it'll get worse but eventually it must burn out. Rain, floods, lack of resources to combust, outside enfluence etc.
There is only one truth when it comes to permanence and that is death (as far as 3rd dimension is concerned)
An easy example is physical death.
Turn the cheek!!
@@MrBirdHd it's not about turning the cheek, it's about evil.
He was bullied and instead of crying about it he armed himself with knowledge and now hits bullies upside the head with facts and morality. He is not mean about it but some people cry over anything that doesn't go with their understanding.
Van, I think you're missing a lot of his points. He's not saying (people don't get their turn) he saying Universities shouldn't block or ban him from speaking on Campus or attack and bully him like they did at UC Berkeley, they got away with assault. If his race was different, All media would be covering it.
Yep. The Left is trying to institutionalize racism against white people.
@@stevenwilliams1805
That's sad, but true.
Also, bringing that point up is kinda scary. Like what do you mean others want their turn and will have it? That thought process is literally discrimination and will doom us as a country.
@UC48j5TGDHL0vU0kfd3_YomA Now, you're not misinterpreting, the reactor is racially biased. I've seen him state in another video that (paraphrasing) he's tired of sitting on the fence, he wants to find out where he stands (when he engages in politics). It's clear that he leans left, and in this particular case I fault him for casually accept reverse-racism as no biggie. Fortunately, there is always time to expand your mind, and the fact that he's open to engage in these topics is good enough in the sense that he is able to enrich his perspective from both sides.
Sadly, most of this is going right over the reactors head. Frustrating to watch.
As a minority, I've never understood how we can have hate crimes and still be treated equally under the law. I regularly see hatred against white people (purely because of their race) and nothing is ever done about it, in fact it's encouraged and promoted.
mind control is powerful
Its all about having equality for minorities except for white people its crazy to me that the most destructive things against minorities are the things they do to themselves and then blame others for it, for example look at the murder rate for black folks and tell me its white people doing 90% of it or how about the fact that their are more black babies being aborted in New York than being born, should we blame white people for that too? I absolutely agree with your comment.
It confuses me because White men founded the united States so y should they not benefit off it and liberals love talking about "white privilege" when the poorest people in the united States live in the Appalachian mountains and the Appalachians are majority white
Crime is crime “hate crime” is bull💩
@@tenebris7969 Because Racism is being pushed in White Majority Nations because most White Majority Nations are Democracies and Marxist want to uproot and remove Western Democracy and using skin color is a tactic.
Anyone can be a minority even white people.
I feel like you saying “it’s the white man’s turn” to be treated poorly, is not a statement of inclusion/love/etc. I do not think it should ever be anyone’s turn to be treated shitty 😞
Agree that was a hypocrite statement.
I agree. This movement seems to be based more on revenge than a desire to genuinely brake the cycle of racism.
not to mention, if he keeps that 100, it's the black man's turn cause they were enslaving each other till 1947 xD and no people are not gonna sit down. the fact that ppl expect this is baffling to me, like I would rather fight a civil war over being descriminated against over stuff my ancestors didn't do. only 1% of whites owned slaves. Nobody talks about this.
and most whites in america come from european families that came here after slavery so the all argument is a complete retard show
Maybe in an effort to make some people more sensible of the suffering of others it could be... However, it still doesn't bring it fair for the majority of that group who has nothing to do to really be discriminated and treated badly.
@@horaciosalazargomez9488 No, it never would be. There's nothing loving or sensible about hating someone based on skin color. How the hell is treating other people like crap going to "teach" them anything except how to further spread hate? People of pretty much every color has been treated unfairly at some point. The majority of whites are not racist and the majority of poc are not oppressed. People can literally choose to live however they choose in the U.S. Anyone can work to better their lives in the U.S. There are literal laws in the U.S. against racism. The only thing holding people back is themselves. People need to work on self accountability, self-responsibility, and self-respect instead of blaming other people for their lack of success in life.
No. Not a chip on his shoulder but a TARGET on his back. I love his thought process and expression of those thoughts.
Ben graduated High School at 16, bachelors degree at 20 ,law degree from Harvard 3 years after that. He is brilliant and really became known by basically destroying every person he ever came across in a debate on many topics
Have you heard his sister sing? Wow! Abigail is impressive
He is a skilled senator who uses, facts, and logic-something that many people black, whit, green, purple-polka dotted don’t have or wish to obtain
Correction-not a Senator he is a speaker
Ben plays violin 🎻 also! 😉 👌
I honestly wish i could get my hands on some of this "White Privilege" I keep hearing about! Maybe then I wouldn't be living in a broke down rv on a hidden lot in the woods as a 64 year old widowed grandmother who put herself through school and spent my life helping others working in medicine until I was injured!
I honestly have NEVER seen any difference in the way my kids and I were treated compared to my neighbors who were not melanin deficient! In fact, there were times I had to rely on the help of my neighbors! So I honestly have never seen or experienced "White Privilege". I HAVE seen "Moneyed Privilege" and I've seen it in ALL races of people - if they have money, it buys them Privilege! But poor whites have no privilege over poor blacks in my experience.
Bingo. And, there are other kinds of privilege. Being good looking and charming opens doors that would be shut against you otherwise, regardless of skin color. Then, there are advantages, such as intelligence and good health. If you have those, make smart choices and apply yourself, regardless of skin color, you will be successful.
That being said, privilege can only exist when others confer advantages upon you for a particular characteristic. U.S. laws do not. If anything, at this point, U.S. laws/programs/bureaucracy favor people of color and foreigners. I grew up in a rural, farming community in the upper Midwest. The demographic was nearly 100% white. Being white in a community of white people got you exactly ZIP.
@@TheSwissHillbilly Exactly. I grew up the same. Poor family. I made sure I was well educated, but that was after I had kids. Had to support the family after my step-dad had his first heart attack at 39. So, even though well educated I got a late start. Then I had a 650# patient fall on me, causing spinal cord damage. The doctor I worked with had a tiny staff, and handed me a letter 2 weeks after the incident that said that due to business re-organization, my position no longer existed. So I was SOL.
White is beautiful. I saw a real angel long ago. He was white. Js
Not being called the N word seems like a privilege but I was called a cracker, white bread, honkie just for being white in a predominately black class in an urban high school. Definitely treated differently based on the color of my white skin. Was beat up by some neighbor kids when i was 6yo because their grandma told them my ancestors enslaved her ancestors.
Lady I will pray for you my heart goes out to you hang in there.🤔
I dont know alot about Ben Shapiro, but the fact that he is attacked at multiple universities tells me he must be speaking the truth!
No, he acts like it's a debate, when it's nothing of the sort. It's two people throwing opinions at each other with no actual stats to back their argument. It's NOT debate.
@@SinclairMoon um Shapiro always has facts on his side, he literally says ask the time the facts don't care about your feelings, and it makes the left so mad because they usually don't have any facts and just debate based off their feelings
@@SinclairMoon
I Disagree with you!
@@SinclairMoon It's because there are people who go to his speeches solely to debate him.
@@49erfanaticfromnm30 that doesn't mean actual DEBATING is going on. 😂
If you've ever been to an actual debate, you would know these aren't that.
This is the problem. Everyone things these are debates. This is why social media is a fucking cancer.
WE NEED MORE PEOPLE LIKE HIM
Ben doesn't have a "chip" on his shoulder. He and his family has been receiving death threats on a regular basis.
I want everyone to know that a civil war is regardless of what the mainstream says, very real and very close to happening so be prepared, and be safe...
Yeah from lefty loonies..
How many replies are supposedly here?
@@darbywing2 I know right! Have they been deleted? I presume they must have been, because they're not here any more.
I tend to agree with you
He’s “astute” because he’s brilliant!!! Graduated college as a teen, one of youngest Harvard grads ever, etc... spits facts like ordering lunch! Dude destroys ANYONE that debates him because he is at top of his game!!
Absolutely!!!
I love Ben Shapiro. But he reminds me of one of the twins from that movie eurotrip lol. Jamie I think his name was lol. Anyone else see that? Lol
The periods were present, simply misplaced.
he plays beautiful violin too. a smart guy. You can watch him play on TH-cam
Ben Shapiro, 12, Plays "Schindler's List"
He bombs out Pakistani churches filled with kids with FACTS and LOGIC
I'm not sure I've seen a single person who has out-debated Ben. He is extremely educated and well-spoken.
Dinesh D’Souza is right there with him IMO.
@@crisl9079 Dinesh D'Souza > Ben Shapiro
Andrew Neil from the BBC handed Ben his ass in an interview. actually had ben leave in a huff. I like a lot of what Ben says be he didn't do his research this time, and accused one of the biggest conservative voices in britan of being a liberal lol. interviews are done different in brittan. rather than just asking easy questions they will, even if they agree fundamentally with the person they are interviewing, ask questions that seem to be against what the interviewee is saying so they can defend their point. Ben didn't know this and thought he was being attacked and then left the interview.
BS is just too smart and he's always well-prepared for any question. I love how he turns the question around into suggesting that her perspective is based on a character argument which is not appropriate for a political discussion. This guy has a solid character, and impeccable morals, and is always fair.
Well, we are tired of being lied to and people like Ben Shapiro give us more accurate news than left wing media, and give us sources as well.
Do you see all white skinned people as some kind of homogeneous group? I’m a Slav, first generation American; how should I feel? Do I get labeled as historical victim, or a historical perpetrator? Where do I sign up for my social credit points?
At the moment, the answer seems to be 'yes'. He seems to indicate that he's on board with 'new' people coming into the country and getting their special rights, not understanding that special rights isn't equal rights. That special rights is where oppression stems from.
Kitka! Ding Ding Ding You win! 🏆🏆🏆 Best comment of the day! 🎯 👏
Slavs are historically the most enslaved people per capita.
It's funny, the mentality that it's all homogenous based on skin tone. Cultures and histories can be hugely varied, as can experiences. Just in America alone, Italians, Irish and more were all historically discriminated against. Heck, I once heard someone tell me that "Caucasians don't have any culture", which is just so incredibly blind!
True story: Slavs are considered people of color in the USA.
He’s a Harvard educated lawyer but instead of practicing law he became deeply involved and political analytics at an early age. He established the daily wire podcast along with some of his friends and made enough money to put his way through medical school. He is a proud family man and he has a huge loyal following due to his sharp mind, focus on the facts, And quick keen sense of humor
and.... AND I have ALWAYS been enamored by his almost robotic speech patterns. lol Ben is the man.
Pretty sure it was his wife he put through medical school 😊
@@daddysduffy6933 sorry typo 😊 you are correct
Thanks for the background. Was wondering about this about him recently too
...
Genius on helium
And it should be noted that none of his awards or grades were handed to him because of the color of his skin. There was no "white privilege." He worked hard to get where he is, like so many of us.
A commenter above stated that she wished she could get some of that white privilege (she is white). Well, my parents, siblings and I wish it too. We lived BELOW poverty and had to work our rears off trying to get out of it. I could share the sob story, but it's moot at this point. Point being, nothing was ever handed to any of us - we had to work, and work HARD to get out of the poverty and "white trash" stigma.
The voice of logical thinking. Respect to Ben.
And yet she sits in congress! She's black and oppressed? Omg. So what does she do for black community's is the question. What Baltimore or Chicago do positively do for blacks?
They “Positively” create Poverty And Racial Violence.
If ur not racist for blacks...ur racist
Nothing! I live in Bmore. People sling drugs boldly right in front of cop cars. I was approached three times on my one block walk .
@@psychshell4644 cops cant police those neighborhoods because its...racist.
Thats what they say... and look how it is.
Baltimore run by black mayor black police chief black congressman black everything lol ,but "" systematic racism"", and remember you cant call baltimore a sh1t h0le thats racist too.
When you have a group who claims "speech is violence" and then they transition to "silence is violence", you know you're in trouble. Not only can you NOT argue against them, you are actually obligated to argue for them.
I know what you mean but pointing out the fallaciousness of their views and the self contradiction and illogic within will suffice which of course is why they try to end free speech and the ability to challenges their evil totalitarianism.
I've always felt like one of the most concerning aspects of claims like "speech is violence" is that it almost suggests that if you openly physically assault someone, just for saying something that you didn't like, it's justified, because you were acting in "self-defense".
@@serelryk5365 Yes. I think this is by design.
You can definitely argue against them easily. The problem is that they are 150% invested in their thought process. They are very easy to argue against, but it's something different once you realize these social Marxists are not interested in anything other than their agenda. They don't hear arguments and do not care what you have to say. To them the ends justify their means.
Wow.
Van, he does not have a chip on his shoulder. He is an intelligent and articulate young man who speaks the truth.
Dang im kinda shocked at your reaction. Ben doesnt have a chip on his shoulder, Hes intelligent and articulate.
He is Jewish and is bullied for it. Instead of fighting for Jews, he fights for anyone being persecuted for their race or religion, or even lack of religion. No chip there, which is rare. Probably why Van assumed there “should” be a chip.
The two aren't mutually exclusive. You can have a chip on your shoulder and be highly intelligent and articulate.
@@shane984 Obviously, but that’s not the case here.
@@deniesejernstrom5350 Your point being? I just commented that him being intelligent and articulate would have nothing to do with past trauma resulting in an emotional response to some stimuli.
"I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."
-Voltaire
This is the attitude we all should have towards debates and free speech in general. Not this modern cancel-culture.
Dear angulion, I agree with what you said, but what Voltaire actually said was:
"I MAY NOT AGREE WITH what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." I'm only pointing this out because saying that you "MAY NOT AGREE WITH" what someone says is quite different to saying that you "DISAPPROVE OF" what someone says.
👍👍👍👍👍
Amen
@@amandajones6481 There seem to be 2 translations. My Google search came up with about 70% "I disapprove..."
No one should get special "rights" because of their gender/color/race. People say they want equality, but want special rights just for them. That is contradictory.
Clearly equality is having the same rights at birth.
Equity is having the same opportunities at birth but that isn't a race issue it is a societal and class issue and if you want to correct you campaign for equality of opportunity not against mythical "white privilege"
Imagine poor whites calling every black that had more them "Black privileged," it could never happen so why is acceptable the other way around?
The reality is there underprivileged people and they need to be helped to the same standard of living as general population but then that standard of living is far from equal from individual to individual and a few dozen individuals and corporations own more than half the worlds entire wealth - why not campaign against that as privilege?
Oh because they are the ones that fund the PC social justice movements, Antifa and BLM who push the narratives that ordinray white people are to blame while they continue to live in absolute opulence.
They do exactly the same with so called Global Warming, every policy makes the rich richer and us poorer.
Rinse and repeat with the Covid polices and Ukraine war sanctions - all impoverish us but make them richer.
But then that's the plan, as WEF and Klaus Schwab say of the great reset, "You will own nothing and be happy"
"YOU" will own nothing, they will own everything.
Spot on its the individual and the character and values that should count and matter to one's self nothing else
That is incorrect, people fight for EQUAL rights. Not special rights. I agree no one should have “special” rights, everyone should have equal rights.
@@chrisganster1829 What equal rights do black, gays, trans and women not have?
@@Muckylittleme paying any attention to what is happening around voting rights or laws against abortion around the country? Those are just two examples.
If you don’t think that he’s speaking facts then you’re living under a rock.
and what facts that he spoke do you contest
😅😅
He was not speaking opinions, he was directly talking about what he had experienced!
Being of mixed race, I find it extremely hypocritical to be yelling for “equality” and against “hate speech” while at the same time judging people based on the color of their skin and shutting them down because they want to have open intellectual dialogue with everyone.
I have 3 teen daughter’s, they know both sides of my family, my father who is white and my mom who is Native American. One thing my mom told me growing up… “America has two history’s”. What she meant by that is, the people who came out here to get away from tyranny ( religious freedom) and those who came to just find gold( secular). Many people do not know true American history. In fact, after the civil war, some native Americans did not release their slaves( yes, native Americans owned black slaves ), as well as, some Northern upperclass black Americans own slaves. True equality is not “ well, it’s your turn now “ ( you know?) but rather… “ okay, we’re all in this together, we aren’t going to agree on everything but I respect you as a fellow human made in Gods image, and will not trample on your right to speak, even if it offends me or I just don’t agree with your ideas”. So, the protests were a few students who basically didn’t want Ben to come speak… they screamed, screeched, yelled.. it was so disrespectful to the students, from all backgrounds that were there and wanted to here from Mr. Shapiro. Anyway, I pray my children never act so entitled as to feel they have the right to stop others from voicing their opinions… or facts. ;)
Well put Hanna! (Half white/half Cherokee here🙋♀️)

I remember watching 60minutes and they were doing an interview with Morgan Freeman and he was asked how do we end racism in this country and he replied; stop talking about it.
drop the mic moment right there--------------------------
Politicians like to keep us divided. It's easier to control the population that way. So racial division is to their benefit not ours, that's why they keep talking about it
I love that and fully agree with him!! Change the channel!
That would be great. Stop speaking about it and love one another as God intended.
AMEN
He started out as the youngest syndicated columnist, at the age of 17. Harvard law, and publisher. His IQ is off the charts.
He was targeted.
Compared to how stupid the majority of people are it´s not hard to be above average intelligent. Studying at Harvard is not a sign of extraordinary intelligence and neither is writing a column. All you need for that are interesting topics and a good writing style.
@@sheilajamero642still is!
I've never seen Ben be scared to say anything. If he didn't hear about that event, then he probably didn't. Just like a lot of things that happen dont get spread around to where people hear about it. You can't expect everyone to know everything that happens. He admitted he didn't know and also answered he would stand on the side next to her to fight against that kind of hate.
You made me so sad when you said "its your turn". Thats basically the most divisive thing Ive heard you say. Youre basically saying its okay to punish someone because of their skin color so long as other people that look like them were bad. Thats like me putting you in jail for a crime you didnt commit.
👏 👏 👏
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 it makes me sad as well Someone to think that when you punish or anything that race is a deciding factor and not think it’s not racism That it is ok to talk bad or single out the white race
Why is it ok to use the term “Karen” and not see that it is a very degrading racist term
How can it not be racist that a white person can not get into a black college or black only pageant, black only groups (naacp) How is this ok
Agreed. What that "turn" is, is simply vengeance, not anywhere close to being something remotely resembling mutual understanding nor equality. It's not a *game* where groups or individuals get to have a "turn". The game itself needs to be over and never played again.
@iviui2d3i2 I would even understand vengence but we're talking about people who werent even involved on either side taking the vengence because of how people look.
@@sevengauge89 agree completely. I wanted to add this very point to my own comment as well however it felt to me that I'd basically made my point and didn't really feel like piling on the (obvious to most) additional facets of getting into the generational 'turns' of inequality. i.e., "I'm sorry my ancestors were horrible to your ancestors" etc., because then it starts to muddy the waters in the sense of trying to identify who within our current times can be precisely identified and then end up either crucified for the sins of the father, or conversely allowed to have their "turn" now for the injustices inflicted upon their lineage when in reality, and the temperance of common sense, those living in the here and now did not engage in, nor experience said injustice. I am bothered that it is somehow "my turn" to experience this ignorant train of thought during the present when I can say with complete confidence that none of my lineage engaged in taking a 'turn' at oppressing others throughout recent history, and yet, due to the actions of a powerful group of those who merely *resemble* my lineage, I am supposed to be held somehow accountable by the masses for (let's be real here) the fact that I am simply a straight white male and somehow am representative of all things that have kept other people from having their "turn". It's an extremely lazy solution, and a dangerous 'game' for anyone in this century to assume that they get to have a 'turn' of their own in this selfish and morbid game which oppresses people like myself. It can't even really be labeled as 'revenge' seeing as those who attempt to have their turn didn't appear until generations later. To clarify, even though there are definitely elements of race involved throughout the entire historical context of this subject, it really doesn't seem to be about race at all. It's about power and oppression of others. Realistically, we are *all* being oppressed on a hierarchical level more than anything to do with strictly only race.
Hes not trying to prevent anyone from other countries getting their rights or anything like that. Hes speaking bc there is some colleges that canceled his speeches bc liberal students threw a fit about him coming there. Hes saying it doesn't help students in the long run by shielding them from.debates or speeches from ppl they don't agree with. Which makes sense.
I don't like the fact that Liberal Activists will revert to violence and threats in order to stop someone from talking.
They claim they have the moral high ground and because of that,they feel it's correct and proper to deny Rights to others...and they WILL use violence to ensure others will accept that premise.
Equality isnt about whose turn it is to be oppressed. Freedom is risky and groups dont have rights, individuals have rights.
Louder for the people in the back!!!
I love that. Groups don't have rights people do. Brilliant.
“They’re gonna get their special rights, too” that’s the whole problem. We all live under the same laws
💯
Equality under ONE law. People cannot be equal under differing laws.
He’s an honest person who speaks his mind.
He didn't say if it was a worthy cause or not.
He said SHOW HIM EVIDENCE OF IT :)
Ben Shapiro is a very intelligent man. I actually wish I had his ability to break down a situation and serve it the way he does!
Equality does NOT include special rights for any one group! It's exactly that kind of thing that is causing so much unrest right now! They want equal treatment, but expect special rights as some kind of distinct society. All that achieves is division and animosity. Which is the very thing we need to prevent!
I agree,I'm not wired up that way
I am a US Army Veteran, I say what I wanna say. Sworn to uphold the constitution of the USA. Freedom of speech.
From what I know about ben. He's a good guy to have on your side. He can break it down and deliver. If you can't see yourself working next to him, he's not the problem.
Stop calling Ben a liar.... he's not. He owns and operates The Daily Wire. He writes a lot of books - he's knowledgeable - he's sought out because of his brain. He had a editorial column that was nationally syndicated when he was 17. He's an Intellectual, author, business owner, Orthodox Jew, married to a Doctor and has 3 kids.
And he reminds all his listeners that his wife is a doctor on a daily basis. 😂
@@kevinjobe2078 I know lol - it's become a joke to even him now... he does it purposefully now.
Guys, I hope yall are all watching this with Express VPN turned on.
ALL OF THIS!! ^^^
He is also a lawyer.
I am so disappointed. I have been so impressed with your ability to be fair and reasonable in the videos I have watched before. Suddenly, you espouse the belief that whether it’s a “right” or not, it doesn’t matter to a group who has committed no crime and done no harm. The history of racism in our country is shameful, but it can’t be erased by attacking the children of some who may have treated your ancestors abominably. You do not know what is in the hearts of those whose “turn” (according to you) has come. Please resist the trend to fight racism with new racism. I thought you were better than that.
I agree totally with your comment,,,
If you're speaking about Van I agree. The problem I've noticed is many of these guys are learning as they go. There are so many times Van etc have said something abt not knowing something and I'm like are you kidding it's been in the news forever? I wish they were a little more knowledgeable bf adding there own questionable comments.
Yep me 2..I'm out on this pod cast guy see ya .I'm sure more people r feeling the same way sham on u
I couldn't agree more. Very disappointing when you know that the USA is the only country to have ever fought a war to abolish slavery. That's how much our ancestors believed that all men are created equal. Some people can only ever see the bad. Haters! There's no doubt there's a class war in America but it's between the elites and middle class. It has nothing to do with skin color.
I’ve been turned away with this podcast. Your lack of fairness on this issue is pretty evident. He is spouting facts. You missed the point.
I absolutely love this guy .I never heard him lie and he knows his stuff.
"It's their turn now..."🤔 disappointing and disgusting sir.
As a white man, I will speak for myself, there is a literal dread that runs through my body every time I begin to post a comment on something that does not fall in line with the far left view points. So much so, that 9 times out of 10 I end up just deleting the comment and not posting it, because I know if I post it I’m probably going to get blasted and blacklisted and maybe even canceled. All because I shared my opinion or thought or question that didn’t automatically capitulate to the readers point of view. This is also a big reason that Trump won the election while all the polls said he would not, because straight white men would not admit they were voting for Trump to the public because of the potential hate that ensues espousing that belief. I once saw a bumper sticker that read “Straight white male republican… how else can I piss you off today?” And that about sums it up, because if you are a straight white male conservative, you are hated. Publicly. And it’s just accepted as common practice. That’s not equality. And that’s definitely not privilege.
Again, that’s just my experience, but I do know from numerous others that I am not alone. Even though, these days, I absolutely feel like it. And this journey you are on now, makes me feel much less alone, so thank you. At the end of the day we are all brothers and sisters, no matter your skin tone, your family wealth, or your background, and we need to remember that.
Yep. I have been self censoring for a while.
In reality, we need to stop doing that.
I am tired of the vocal minority, (in numbers) garnering all power.
We have to stand up.
I feel you 100%. I'm doing my university degree and there are so many people who believe in this racialized and gendered nonsense that it makes me afraid to develop relationships with them for fear of being attacked for talking about what I personally believe. Not to mention with Covid, it makes it 10× harder to even create lasting relationships with people, and I currently have no close friends due to this. I'm usually ok on my own, but I have to admit that with all this insanity going on, and now the crisis in Ukraine, I actually broke down a couple of days ago because of how isolated and lonely I feel. It's one thing to not be able to make friends because of external circumstances, but it's another completely to sit right next to hundreds of people and know that your ideology makes you thousands of miles away from ever becoming united with them. That's what truly scares me and makes me upset.... that tribalism in this society is no longer a threat, but reality.
@@tisbutascratch2045 i’ve actually been in the exact same boat, it even developed into sort of a depression, to be honest. It is absolutely demoralizing to be completely isolated and hated for something that is intentionally being misconstrued. I think we all have a lot more in common than we even consider, and it takes conversations and dialogue like this channel is doing here in order to open our eyes to it sometimes.
My fear/concern isn't that I'm going to be canceled or negatively viewed due to my opinion but rather that there will be a comment in response that shows "support" while at the same time spewing filthy, hateful things. I call it out when I see it happen because nobody should say those things, not because they're directed at any one group or another. But now because of this my name is associated with this despite my clear distaste for it that stuff.
@@tisbutascratch2045 Believe me, I can understand your quandary and sympathize. How anyone can become or remain a leftist or democrat in the USA these days is beyond me. I have at least two dear relatives whom I no longer can be open with for fear of starting a political verbal war. There likely are others as well, but I just haven't found out about them. I really worry for the younger generations who are being schooled in this garbage - literally brainwashed. I've found that the more college they attend, the worse they are corrupted. May God help us all.
"He got a chip on his shoulder a long time" & "I guess it's your turn now" .
SAYS alot about you as a person.
We live in a world that victim mentality is rewarded and facts are NOT even in the conversation.
facts in this conversation 😂 hit that thang
Exactly if you didn't want racism to be a thing why would you say it's your turn now 😂
I'm glad someone pointed that out. He just hates Ben Shapiro so he'll excuse antisemitism, ignore literal neo-Nazis targeting Shapiro, and blame Shapiro as having a chip on his shoulder. Many people have no principles.
I love Van, but I have to admit, those comments did surprise me.
I have to say though, he has done more than enough to have earned the benefit of the doubt from me, and because of that, I believe what he meant just came out wrong, and I'll wait for him to clarify, or explain.
For the record though, I do not, and will not, except that it's anyones turn to receive discrimination.
What I believe is: it's everyone's turn to stop discriminating against all of our brothers and sisters, to learn to live together, and to love each other.
It's time for us to fulfill the promise of this great nation, and the dreams of all the great men and women who have sacrificed so much to move us in the direction of that more perfect Union, and so often, drag the rest of the world along with us.
So much progress has been made, let's not allow people to drag us backward, while claiming it's with the intent to move us forward.
I believe it was Morgan Freeman who said, "The only way to end discrimination is to stop discriminating." But regardless of who said it, I agree 100% with it.
@@TheDiSanzilla I like Van to and I'll give him the benefit of the doubt because these things take time. He's legitimately making the effort to look at things with an open mind.
Just finished reading "While Time Remains" by Yeomni Park, a defector of North Korea. From that book I learned that one ploy of that government was and is to restrict not only speech but actual words themselves. They ban individual words, the use of which is punishable by prison confinement for you and family members. We cannot begin to restrict speech. We cannot begin to restrict vocabulary.
So scary...
Van, I truly believe that Ben Shapiros heart is with all cultures. The problem that people on the left have with him is that they “can’t handle the truth “ and they don’t want to because it conflicts with their agenda, which is division. Van, people like you and I can make a difference because all it takes is two people like us to open minds to the reality of what is really happening.
Amen!
They are talking about conservative speakers on college campuses getting shut out and shut down. It is NOT about race or white privilege. There are both black and white conservatives. This was from a few years ago. Conservatives come in all colors shapes and sizes and we deserve to be heard too.
👍👍
Lol it's LFR .. it's always about race
"Special rights"...what the hell are you talking about? We're talking about free speech. Everybody is entitled of that.
Ben Shapiro is very direct and needs not fake his answers, because he thinks it's better to be upfront and honest, than to be caught in a lie later on social media.
He’s a political commentator and author. People watch him because of his ability to make a case (agree or not irrelevant). He could run for office but probably chooses not to because he has way more impact on society doing what he does rather than get handcuffed to some political position. Though I think he said if nominated for the Supreme Court, he’d consider it.
He also owns a news network now The Daily Wire.
@@Gaara11990 You mean a propaganda network, news does not exist anymore.
And his wife is a doctor, lol
@@EricBuitenhuis 🤣
@@Muckylittleme Not propaganda like CNN ABC or even Fox....
NO..... it's not about everyone getting "their turn". We know some bad stuff did happen in the past. We can't rewind it, undo it or erase it. It's about moving forward now, not going backwards.
They are also far more guilty of crimes in their families than whites by a HUGE amount. When you commit 8.5x the crime rate of white people you don't get to say that whites need to feel like their ancestors need forgiveness and that they don't want to be associated with them. It's just racist to peddle the narrative that whites are okay "even though" they were in "power" in the past. It's just not how reality works.
Ben is a graduate of Harvard, former lawyer, co-founder of "The Daily Wire", host of "The Ben Shapiro Show", author of several books, and a speaker. He's a devout orthodox Jew, married to a doctor, and a father to I think 3 kids.
He isn’t orthodox at all. It’s all visible
Orthodox Jews are bearded, and spiral curls called payot. There are also many clothing restrictions and way more restrictions and required visa le things.
He may be a devout Jewish man but he is not orthodox. Orthodox Jews is much like the orthodox Christian amish in extreme
No one deserves ‘special’ rights. We all deserve our constitutional rights - no more and no less.
He is explaining "intersectionality ". He isn't agreeing with it. He is explaining these excuses that people use to silence free speech
Background for context. Not voicing opinions, just stating what they teach. Exactly!
OMG Ben speaks the truth. Can't believe you don't know who he is given I am an Australian and have watched 100's of hours of his content.
I'm assuming this guy is probably a (former?) Leftie and left or main street media really creates a bubble around them and spoon feeds them the Info they want them to know and someone like Ben is just portrayed as a right wing whatever. Only rare people like this gentleman who have the curiosity to go outside their bubble are exposed to a whole new world that doesn't line up with what they've been fed. They pay the price of listening to the enemy and being outcast by their tribe for only being curious because that's not allowed, no thinking for yourself. You can see this guy's confusion because he thinks for himself and what's he's been taught his whole life doesn't seem right and he's trying to make sense of it all. Everyone should be curious and question everything but the left has turned into a cult of brainwashed minions and they shun anyone thinking their own thoughts because the left has turned into globialist indoctrination everywhere now.
🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
Van knew who Ben is... That comment "Facts don't care about feelings" is Ben's line. If he doesn't know anything about Ben, how does he know that line?
This was one of Ben’s best moments. He used facts and logic to support his views. Some didn’t like the conclusion, he was able to support and back up his thoughts…
I dont understand "white privilege". I'm white & haven't experienced any privilege. I grew up poor & have had to work my ass off to get where I'm at today. Jmo
Same here if there's white privilege I haven't experienced none
When the police pull you over you'll know the difference.
Even poor white people don't understand racism and white supremacy if you're not part of the 1%, they don't give a s*** about you either they just use you.
"White privilege" doesn't mean that you haven't faced hardships. It means that you're skin color wasn't a factor in those hardships. There are surely going to be some anecdotal examples to the contrary, yet the statistics show that POC still face institutional discrimination (not to mention real world racism) in disproportional levels compared to "white people."

Little more than half
I think its almost become a game for some of these hyper far lefties to try and "one up" Ben Shapiro, and Jordan Peterson. Some people sincerely seem to want to have good faith civil discourse, but it can be hard to differentiate someone's motives.
You should know that,
"....a game for some of these hyper far lefties to try and one up...."
is nothing to get all stirred up about, but it does not read as an invitation for good faith civil discourse either. It's an invitation for people who play games.
The value of what Shapiro and Jordan have to say is zero.
They are pundits living their best lives getting paid to voice their opinions.
They are hired as experts in their own field or profession, not on whatever subject they are being paid to talk about. Their opinions are as relevant to these issues as yours and mine are.
They may have the ego of a politician or future plans to run for office in mind, but for now, they are not politicians.
So there is no reason for either one of them to ever mention either political party when discussing issues like, LGBTQ rights, gender equal pay, or feminism, etc.
But that is what they, not so subltly do. That is what they are paid for. To push the narrative of the party who hires them. The gratuitous derogatory comment sets the stage, so to speak. The lies and manipulation of facts are coming.
One just has to listen and pay attention.
Especially with Shapiro. He's a lawyer forgodsake. Oddly, deception is a legitimate job description in his profession.
A lawyer's job is to win.
Just because you like what you hear, that does not mean that
correcting twisted facts or pointing out false claims and accusations is playing games.
These are all very important human not political issues.
That's why I speak up.
@@eileencastillo6323 I didn't ask any questions that need clarification. Let alone a massive diatribe like the book you wrote. Thx though.
@@skeptischism1324
Yeah, it sure looks like it now, huh?
Very civil though.
I learned a different version of 'facts don't care about your feelings' during my career as a nurse. Patients often don't want things to be true, they wish to deny reality. But reality will always be real.
I disagree. I don't think Ben has a chip. I think he is articulate and straight to the point and speaks so fast most brains struggle to keep up. His arguments aren't to coddle anyone they are to get the point across. He isn't mean about it. However, think about all the crap he gets and all the arguments he makes over and over and over again. I am not so articulate or well composed. I would've lost it on people by now, multiple times.
Also, the goal isn't to move from inequality in the past to making inequality now just on different people. The goal should be equality of opportunity for all. To say now it's your time is incredibly .... I can't even think of the right word.
@ Darth Mortis-So correct, Darth Mortis!-trying to change inequality from one group and force inequality on another, in order to "even things out" is NOT PROGRESS!!-It is just MORE INEQUALITY & RACISM!
ignorant. that's the word your looking for.
Everyone getting their turn is what is wrong with society. There should not be a turn. There is a big difference in vengeance and equality. I believe in equality for everyone. The entire purpose of the civil rights movement was equality, not at getting payback and changing who is discriminated against. That is just a vicious cycle.
Yes, exactly!
Yes! Sounds a bit simplistic, but 2 wrongs will never make it right. For any of us.
Sometimes simple is the answer. You shouldn’t knock a solution for being simple.
exactly---------------------and whose turn will be after that, and after that, and after that?????
He graduated high school at 16 and graduated from U of CA with a BA then went to Harvard law. Ben is a brilliant man.
He knows what he’s talking about so that’s why you are having trouble believing that this is really happening !
Ben states that the views of straight white men is less valuable than views of gay black women not as a statement of fact, he is defining the current atmosphere on college campuses across the country that have bought into this "intersectionality" argument.
As a White Female being "Privileged " is laughable..

@@hankarmentrout6697 But
Whyyyyy ? Just Kidding...
Respect !
I'll tell you one thing! My faith is in Ben. Why should he lie? He isn't afraid of anyone!
Ben is an amazing man with good character. Smart, brilliant and as a voice in this woke society. God has given him a platform. He does speak facts and truth! I know it might be hard for you to understand but he's not afraid to speak truth and does not apologize for it!
You don't get YOUR PRIVATE RIGHTS! Rights are universal.
I believe a wise man once said “ discrimination anywhere is discrimination everywhere”. What you are suggesting is settling past grievances by discriminating against people that weren’t involved with the past grievance. This will not prompt anything positive in our nation. This will only polarize us further.
It's funny, because a couple weeks after this interview, it came out it was the black lady in question tying up the nooses around campus and then pointing to the nooses and complaining about racism on campus.
I remember hearing about something like that. Smollett little I guess.
Is it just me or does anyone else realize that the congress woman is the real racist simply by making distinctions of people based on race. Isn't that the definition of racism?
Soon as that fact was revealed - the story left the news cycle. But the damage had already been done - I'm sure very few that heard this story could tell you who committed the act -- So, in their minds (the uninformed) white supremacy is alive and well
Similar situation at a college in my hometown! When it was assumed to be a white person, lots of anger and publicity. After the investigation, when the actual culprit was found (black student), the incident was quietly shushed and there were no consequences. That is a clear racist statement in my opinion!
That happens a lot. A whole lot. And these can be backed up by either the supposed "victim" admitting they themselves did it, or by camaras/video that proves it.
I have watch many of his videos. Ben is one of the few that has integrity and has the guts to say it how it is. But many people don’t like hearing the truth . Nothing goes there way , they don’t like what they hear ,they can’t get what they want. Then your races.
No one is accountable for there own actions any more it’s more easier to blame everyone else instead of them selfs for there choices in life.
Please don't assume that he is a cold and emotionless father!
Understand that proper debate etiquette does not include opinions and personal attacks, and that's what he is doing here with this woman who is attacking him because she has no facts and hopes to rile the audience and cloud their judgement. Works on a lot of people, sadly.
I have definitely experienced much of what Ben has gone through, the difference is that now he can't even use his thoughts to defend himself without being told to shut up, because he has no right to an opinion. You are right, everyone has a right to get "their turn", this is how a debate works, there should never be an exclusion of anyone otherwise you are not debating. I am not great in a fist fight, but I'd never tell someone to stand there and not defend themselves because of it, this is figuratively what people are asking Ben to do because the far left could not debate itself out of a wet paper bag.
I am white Irish born. My ancestors were slaves in many countries. Slavery has touched a lot of humankind. Ben Shapiro is saying that we are all entitled to freedom of speech but now his ability to do so being taken away. I'm an American citizen and proud of it. We carry the scars of our ancestors and we will never forget our history.
You asked a couple questions in this video... So here are some answers for you
1. Who is Ben Shapiro? He's regarded as a political genius from the time that he was a young teenager. He wrote a book on politics and got it published at the age of 17. He graduated from Harvard law School as one of the youngest graduates ever. He travels the country speaking on political issues and free speech and has become well known for championing individual rights
2. You ask about the protests and what ben was talking about... Throughout 2019 (before covid locked the country down) Ben and several other conservative speakers were scheduled to speak at large universities across the country. When they arrived there were thousands of people who had stood in line for hours to hear them talk. There were also several hundred protesters who began physically attacking the people who wanted to listen to Ben (or the other speakers). They then forced their way into the auditorium and prevented Ben from speaking through various means of physical violence and threats. The University administrators allowed this to happen because they disagreed with Ben Shapiro or others like him.
I don't even know if the admin didn't agree with Ben (although knowing the type of people at college, you are probably correct) I think they were more concerned with being lambasted in the media as being racist and sexist and all the other buzzwords that people throw around with no evidence to get people to comply and or shut up. Bad publicity means someone would've gotten fired if not then all and the colleges weren't ever going to stand up and have a back bone. That's the whole issue with all of this, anyone can call you a name and the media will ruin your life, or try to. Get you fired get you deplatformed, etc. And they literally have people whose only goal is to find you saying or doing something in any point of your life to try and do it. It's a cancer of an ideology because it's secondary symptom is narcissism and mental illness.
@@Jcikokalol you have to keep in mind where this is happening... Universities are the breeding ground for this cancel culture. Who taught the media to do what they do? Who wrote all those letters to Congress demanding the right to ban free speech... The University admin. They are the source
look up what happen to ever green college.
For some reason, in our society, we have to degrade one person or people to lift up another. Insane.
As a white guy , I believe our constitution covers everyone's rights regardless of race , political and sexual orientation.

Its does BUT it [Constitution] is a commercial instrument. So knowing that these are commercial terms would eliminate division. But Hey without the division I guess you can't maintain control!
@@amaru427 I agree that division is being used for control. I look at our constitution as a contract between our country and it's people to assure us our rights to freedom and prosperity . It also has been written to keep our government in check.

I don't mind watching your videos, and seeing your efforts of self evolution. And thankyou for putting your ignorance on display (not a put down). I just want to address the one shield I keep seeing from people thinking it's alright to strip whities of personhood and rights to self expression. "It's there turn on bottom".... seriously. That is a 300 year old mentality. "they deserve to be lorded over"... "They need to experience The back of a heel on their head to be humbled, so they learn their place". This is a slavers mentality, and your wearing it.
My thoughts exactly! Human suffering at the hands of other humans is nothing new. Many empires and many people have lived and died under horrible kings. If people don't change their ideas that everyone gets their turn then the cycle will never end.
I don't agree with the sentiment that everyone gets their turn.. it implies that it was right to do to any race in the first place... What about the Irish? Is it their turn again? That way of thinking is sad to hear
Valuing anyone’s opinion over another simply based on color, sex, religious orientation continues the sickness of discrimination. It is a disease. Devaluing another’s opinion out of revenge will only continue the disease. We have to rise above together and embrace each other, learn from each other, respect, love and evolve.
Any time I think Van is getting it, he explains how he won't. "Poor mentality. It's a mentality very few people eeever recover from." - Dave Chappelle . Victimhood mentality is the same way and we see why. No matter the facts presented, people fight to hold on to it because if offers comfort and excuses and justification for the feelings they've had their whole life, before they knew better.
Perfectly articulated
People love him because he thinks logically not emotionally and back it up with facts
What facts? 😂
To ask, “What facts?” because you want to disregard him is just a shot in the dark. Ben does his homework on many subjects and he states data stats that can be researched and found. I’m a conservative and understand him. As it is known, two wrongs don’t make a right, meaning that just because times and fads are in the favor of minorities, LGBTQXYZ and others, does not mean another group like white, straight, males should be degraded. We should respect all or we are doomed to repeat the past and continue to instigate each other by groups. “We are being watched by other beings and I’m sure they are saying, “What a stupid species humans are. “
@@SinclairMoon because he demotes victim claiming? you have all the power in the world to get off your ass and be something. Instead of crying on TH-cam how your life sucks because your skin color is not white.

When people are caught doing racist activities they are publicly shamed all over the enternet, they lose their jobs and in some situations they get sued .

If we continue on this speech policing path, the people that are for it will eventually also be censored, it is a VERY dangerous and slippery slope. Everyone needs to learn to understand that every spoken word is not aimed at them.
Respectfully - You blew it on that last point. I don’t know how you could have missed it so badly.
Yeah he almost seemed elated that it’s the “white man’s turn”. At least he showed his true colors! Hey let’s fight racism with racism. Honestly though LFR didn’t understand a word of what this guy just said because it all went over his head!
"Everybody gets their turn" I refuse to submit to that idea...
Lol, he doesn't get it yet.
The concept that all of mankind are created equal with; God given rights, was thought up of by great people, later those who claimed to hold this belief was challenged by a good man by the name of Fredrick Douglas to uphold their claims. Later, another good man decided it was time to act on that challenge by ordering the abolition of the enslavement of a people that had been deigned those rights that they had always been entitled too. A very brutal war was fought to end that enslavement, and ever since then, major steps have been made to elevate those peoples in order to put them in equal footing with everyone else.
There's still more work to be done of course, but regardless of how much farther we need to go, the ideal this country was founded on still rings true, and still applies to all at the moment their life begins. It's not something you earn though suffering, I'm sorry my fellow man of a darker complexion had to be the ones who had to suffer in order to call those who claim to believe in equality for all to action, but civil rights still do apply to all equally.
So whenever I hear a darker skinned induvial say something like "everybody gets their turn" my rational tells me; even if the person who said that wouldn't want it to happen, the only way this ends is with paler skinned people being put in chains and deigned their rights of which they are entitled too, for however long their captures care . This is only going to cause more resentment; more turn taking. I want the future to be what I've seen in elementary school with the construction paper earth pinned to the wall with kids of all shades are holding hand together. Not this brutal version of king of the hill. I'll say this too, even though I don't want things to go that way I'll fight like hell, and die before me, and my own are put in chains, you can count on that.
There used to be a time where Colleges and University were places students could broaden their minds....now they learn to close them and are exposed to limited views .
I love your comment.
He's giving them what he's observed on college campuses that he speaks at. He's highly intelligent and educated.
Sitting congresswoman complaining about MY privilege, while I and other old people live on $814 a month. What he said about a Black LGBT female's words automatically having more weight than a straight white male's is a fact in the sphere of intersectionality.
And this is how Ben (and Hitler) manipulate the masses. Pretty soon you'll agree to violence rather than wake up and vote for people who actually concern themselves with helping the average American.
He was backing his opinions with the facts. That is opposed to backing opinions with feelings.
Exactly on point.
Wow!
“Every group has their turn”…
At least you’re honest. I’m not going to lay down and “take my turn” for some shit I didn’t do, though.
Since this is about retribution and not moving forward and equality, I can stop trying to listen and actively try to win. If you’re going to actively or passively make life harder for my kids for no other reason than who their parents or grandparents were, you’ve made this an existential problem for me and my family. Now that I know the game we are playing I can adjust the rule set appropriately now. Thanks.
I grew up in a black dominated community I was poorer than those around me. I grew up in a single parent household. My father didn’t work instead we lived off of welfare and I had to wear dirty clothes and ate school food because that was what we had! I ate maybe 3 times a week during the summer but I busted my ass thinking that if I was a straight A student I could get a scholarship yet I was turned down for scholarships because of my skin tone (I look white yet I’m native). This has continually happened through my adult life as being paid less becoming I’m ‘white’ being denied jobs because I’m ‘white’ etc etc etc WHERE IS THE PRIVILEGE?????
Those weren't opinions, those were facts. That's literally what those people do.
"Everybody gets their turn".. I disagree with you vehemently on that. We should abhor ALL racism,whether it is against blacks or whites or Asians, hispanics,Arabs.. whoever. To discriminate against someone for the kind of body... that GOD put them in.. is WRONG. No, Van.. it's no one's "turn".. it's all of our turn to love each other as our neighbor and disregard the type of body God puts someone in, except to say "wow, God is an amazing Artist".... of course I am not talking about disregarding honoring the history of each race.. but I am talking about treating each other equally, with love. "Love your neighbor"...Edit: I hope I misunderstood your statement.. but that's what it sounded like to me, that it is now time for white people to face discrimination.Please tell me that's not what you meant. If you meant, that everybody gets their turn in terms of fighting for rights.. well, I think the point is that America is not about race. That's the point. It doesn't matter what a person's color is.. we are supposed to love each other regardless of skin. We need to move past race. Learn from history, hold hands and move forward.
And also if based on the person's religious views.
For example I do not like one bit all the god imo delusional stuff, but I have a right to my opinion and so do you and while we have different opinions, I would defend your right to express them.
It’s only delusional because you refuse to understand. Your only exposure has most likely been sunday schools where they’re unequipped to answer religious questions. I wanted to read the verse about condemning gays because I wanted the context and the woman reading looked at me like I had 3 heads. Not even 2, but 3. Searched deeper and the context wasn’t even God giving a rule, but the Jews making rules for themselves so as not to lose their culture to the babylonians (given our times, even though I am gay I understand that decision).
@@angulion Let people talk... this way you know where they stand. They will eventually reveal themselves as who they are. In the case of Richard Dawkins, he shows us that he's not willing to be a scientist at all, just a sad man destined for eternal separation from God. He wrote books, and pushed illogical fallacies, etc. The key here is that he was allowed to give us great examples of how NOT to think, because it makes us look and sound stupid. If he were silenced, there would have been no opportunity to shoot down his worthless theories.
@@MindzEyz I agree with your sentiment but strongly disagree what comes to Dawkins.
@@angulion That is more than reasonable. Thanks. How often do we understand or even agree with a person's idea, but totally disagree with the presentation or example used? I do all the time.
Saying “men can’t get pregnant” would be viewed as a micro aggression and be considered violence to the ppl who espouse these views. Ugh, this kinda stuff makes me ill.
'laws against those people and now they want their own rights' .... anyone who is a US citizen already has the same rights as every other US citizen because of our great constitution. Nobody gets special rights. If they don't like it, they can leave. USA, USA, USA. ... God bless you Van. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Minorities have special rights called Affirmative Action.
"White man getting his turn." So what you're saying is the current political climate isn't about equality, it's about retribution? If so, we can have that conversation, but let's not then pretend it's about equality. Groups want their own private rights? Again, this isn't about equality? It's about each group getting their own private rights? That's a terrible idea, but at least let's talk about that idea and not pretend it's equality.
exactly.
i came down to the comments to say this very thing.
exactly, saying "its now their turn" is just the same as saying "they pushed us around for decades... now we want to push them around". i thought we want to build a better society where every one can say their opinions. but if its plain and simple retribution....well then they are not better then the very people they pretend to go against with their activism
Even worse, it's a circle. Your revenge against the white man will lead to the white man's revenge against you. So stop pursuing revenge at all.
Yes two wrongs don’t make a right. Comeuppance may feel good but it’s no way to advance
So, you just validated something that I have always said. For many in the black community, it's NOT about equality... it's about REVENGE.
I also wrote this as a reply to someone's comment (about black on white racism) but I also wanted to say it here so it could be seen better:
Thank you. People either don't realise that or just don't want to believe it. I was not allowed to attend my Korean American boyfriend's family gatherings on Thanksgivings and Christmases because the fact that I was White made the extended family "uncomfortable". I spent those holidays alone with no family or friends of my own to go to (this was in college and my friends went home and my family lived on the other side of the country and I could not afford to go there).
Another time, when I was visiting a loved one in a nursing home every evening a number of black aides and nurses refused to say hello to me at the nurses station next to the nighttime door entrance where I came in every night. For at least three months I ignored this and smiled and said hi completely genuinely every night until I had to give up because it just hurt too much. When my loved one asked one person from that group of people there why they would never say hi to me but would always say hi to him, she said it was because they didn't like white people. She said she would say hi to me but didn't feel like she could because of peer pressure. This obviously didn't apply to my loved one because he obviously had some black in him. I'm sure they were also required to be somewhat friendly to the patients, but to friends and family they didn't feel the need to if they didn't want to.
I have also heard many stories of white kids in all black or mostly black schools regularly getting beaten up because they were white.
Also, black on white violent crimes are ten times higher than white on black violent crimes. This is true even though blacks make up only 13-17 percent of the population. But still, it's white people who keep being called the "racist" ones.
I could keep going...
