not a bad list, but I feel 7 is WAY too low on the list. It should atleast be in the top 5. Hell, for me its in the top 3.

I wonder why he likes 9 so much. Maybe Ill check the video out later

Im just baffled why he (and so many others) rate Rogue One so highly. Its not a bad movie, and I dont dislike it, but its just so.. bland. Outside of the Scarif battle theres like nothing too memorable about it. And its certainly the least Star Wars-feeling Star Wars movie.

Honestly, I think you've answered your own question.

Compared to the prequels, and in the wake of the abortion that was 8 and the flaming train wreck that was 9, RO comes across feeling like a masterpiece. It kind of succeeds by being a breath of fresh air in a franchise that seemingly went stale years ago.

Bleh. Ill take any of the main saga over it. At least I liked all of the new characters in the new movies.

But I guess Im really more of a characters guy than an action guy.

Who is Ben Shapiro?

Coined the phrase "Facts don't care about your feelings".

His whole shtick is to inject truth and concrete facts against the arguments of SJWs, the Alphabet people, and other leftists fringe groups; then makes all his money by posting their often triggering reactions on youtube.

He gets a lot of press because 8 times out of 10, he's right....as opposed to the left side only getting 2 out of 10 things right.

I don't agree with some of the things he says, but at least he can articulate his reasonings better than some psuedo-intellectual soiboi with pink hair trying to find more ways to add to the gender spectrum to bolster their numbers and letters.

Ben doesn't care about facts. He cares about lies. And he cares about calling your objections to his lies your feelings that facts don't care for.

Ben "Single payer costs more" Shapiro (every scientific study has different feelings he doesn't care about)

Ben "Pornography is immoral" Shapiro (some real feelings there)

Ben "Covid lockdown is Tyranny" Shapiro (more feelings that serve no purpose but to get people killed)

Ben "Global warming isn't man-made" (Ben putting his personal feelings over the factual evidence)

Ben "Bomb Iran for freedom" Shapiro (literal murderous lies and propaganda, goes against the whole moral superiority complex there, personal feelings > facts and morality)

Ben "Millions of dollars won't influence politicians opinions" Shapiro

Ben didn't rise through the ranks because he's an intelligent person that people want to listen to. He rose because he was funded by rich people who want you to listen to him. He's not cool. He's a soulless sellout religious fundamentalist dweeb, and I find it funny these young guys are slobbering over this weirdo telling people to not have sex until marriage. :P real counter culture there.

And sure, not everything he says is stupid, going through his Twitter he's calling out Democrats on being a shitty party overall and posting accurate non-political things, but that's no reason to trust him, because he's just a fundamentalist neo-con Conservative, who pretends to have an inkling of knowledge of how the US political system works while rejecting the entire concept of corruption. The cool guys are calling out the corruption and the Sunday school fundamentalism and doing it for free.

source for bombing iran, global warming isn't man made, covid lockdown is tyranny and millions of dollars won't influence politicians plz

also proof he is funded by rich people and explanation as to how skipping 2 grades, getting to be the youngest syndicated columnist in the US by age 17 and writing 10 NY best selling books in the span of 15 years isn't "self made" plz

Did this illuminati of yours simply pick an average 17 year old and dumped money on him to become a columnist? was he also not qualified for harvard but this same illuminati got him inside harvard as well? did those rich people buy his books until he got into the NY and Amazon best seller lists? How does all of that work exactly?

https://twitter.com/benshapiro/status/816738132397723648?lang=en

Lobbyism being a topic he rarely mentions signals to the fact that he doesn't believe in it, and why would he, he's funded by a super PAC funded by

"Charles Koch, Education Sec. Betsy DeVos and her family, Robert and Rebekah Mercer, Illinois Gov. Bruce Rauner, prolific GOP megadonor Richard Uihlein, Home Depot cofounder Bernie Marcus, and Wyoming gubernatorial candidate Foster Freiss"
https://littlesis.org/maps/3266-ben-shapiro-s-gilded-path-to-prominence?%22Wunderkind%22

sort of indicates he doesn't believe lobbyism is relevant.

Is that enough Ben Shapiro shreckage? That was my afternoon, but don't feel bad, I enjoy it.

There are smart Conservatives, I don't know why, don't ask me. Don't ask me how someone can skip 2 grades and not believe in climate change. I wish I knew. I guess it just matters who scoops up their young brain first.

I don't know his books, but I imagine he picked him because he was a faithful Conservative, rather than picking a random guy and telling him to say something with a fat wad of cash. That "Illuminati" would be a well documented Conservative Super PAC funded by billionaires, who even he knows would surely drop his support if he stepped too far out of line.

wait, you bash shapiro but listen to kyle kulinski? seriously?
Anyway i still don't see where shapiro says "we need to bomb iran" like you claimed, he said and i quote "you do have to show the iranians that if things get real" (from which i understand - if iran does something we can't turn a blind eye to like killing americans, he sorta says this earlier in the video) we need to show them who's boss and not do nothing because then things get worse and escalate which is always what happens when you ignore or appease terrorists, i don't see anything wrong with that. Also that episode aired after Iran showed serious escalation in hostility in a really short period of time with these:
https://edition.cnn.com/2019/07/10/politics/iran-attempted-seize-british-tanker/index.html

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2019_Iranian_shoot-down_of_American_drone

so it's not that shapiro simply came out of nowhere saying we should bomb iran like you suggested, btw funny we ended up at this topic because we had another escalation from iran three weeks ago

https://edition.cnn.com/videos/politics/2020/04/15/iran-vessels-us-navy-warships-arabian-sea-eg-orig.cnn

imo if you follow the events and read on those sorts of leaderships and their patterns you can clearly see iran IS escalating, trumps approach is pretty much "i'll talk big then sit on my ass and do nothing" to which shapiro says "yea you're not fooling anyone, iran knows you're full of it so the escalation will continue and the only way to stop it is to actually do something, and doing something doesn't automatically equates to pressing the red button and sending nukes to iran, it can be plenty of other things..."

And yeah, the fanbase disliked that video, that's not rare for him, all the episodes in which he attacks trump gets downvoted, something that happens quite often, though doesn't this prove shapiro is not a shill who preaches to the masses what they wanna hear like you suggested but someone with his own opinions and beliefs? I myself btw, am one of those dislikes because i disagree with shapiro's stance in that video, but truth be told i can't actually refute his logic or any of his arguments, i just think it's all bait by the iranians to get trump into a war which will make him lose 2020 automatically, to which shapiro would retort "so you prefer political expediency over the safety of the US" and i have no answer for that lol

"Single payer is indentured servitude and will bankrupt the country"
I know he said this one, that's why i didn't ask for a source, i think his reasoning on it is solid though, here it is if you're interested
https://youtu.be/SznOanekygY
https://youtu.be/EoVb3DX85LA

wow someone actually spent time making a "shapiro is owned by the illuminati" chart, i dunno if i find that funny or sad lol
The "connections" there are between people and the company ben worked at in the time at best or non existent at worse (what does ben have to do money wise with turning point usa?) except the wilks, in which case: "The Daily Wire was conceived by Ben Shapiro and Jeremy Boreing, who both worked for TruthRevolt, a news website that was formerly funded by the David Horowitz Freedom Center.[7] After the duo secured several million dollars in seed funding from Dan and Farris Wilks, The Daily Wire was launched in 2015".

so shapiro and his partner pitched their startup company to other people and got seed funding, which is something that lasts for about a year, right now shapiro's company has no funders and is self sustained.
You said Shapiro is a bought asset, that is not true because the only time he was funded was recently at 2015 (what about before that?) and the amount wasn't something he couldn't have gotten himself in a year or two given his work.
You said shapiro is a paid shill who says what he is being told to say, that is not true because his stances in 2014 are exactly the same as they are now.
You said shapiro is all money made, that is not true because his current net worth is 25$mil while his company which had less than 10 employees in 2015 now has over a hundred and he keeps hiring, how do you explain the gap between this to the amount he was funded with? (which was also split with his partner)?

what about "quarantine is tyranny" one?

I'd even put 8 over 7 myself. Hell, even 1 I'd put over 7... although I haven't seen TPM in years.

3 > 6 is wtf, though. 6 is the weakest of the OT but it's still better than pretty much anything outside the OT, although R1 is close.

Ben "Single payer costs more" Shapiro (every scientific study has different feelings he doesn't care about)

The claim that single-payer costs less is faulty because it creates a false aggregate and from there it's mostly based on speculation. And government has a pretty long track record of taking over something and then making it cost more one way or another.

Yellow posted...
Ben "Pornography is immoral" Shapiro (some real feelings there)

While objectivity is hard to establish when it comes to morality, I imagine most people -- including those who watch it -- consider it immoral. In fact, pornography is one of those subjects that tends to unite the left and right in condemnation, especially considering that some of its most ardent critics are feminists.

Yellow posted...
Ben "Covid lockdown is Tyranny" Shapiro (more feelings that serve no purpose but to get people killed)

lolwut? Effectively martial law is tyrannical and to pretend otherwise is purely based on feelings. Whether you agree or disagree with the lockdown, that doesn't change what it is. You could at least have the cajones to own the fact that you believe that the complete cessation of liberty is necessary for security instead of dancing around it.
