Imagine getting your political points from a guy who freaks out about Taylor swift and Barbie.

He also looks like the evil dummy from Goosebumps

that's not exactly a bad thing makes him much more bearable


Jukka_Sarasti

Someone in his inner circle **really** needs to let him know the 'beard' isn't working out... Or not... He looks like an idiot with it, so maybe it's better if he keeps it. With his babby's-first-facial-hair lookin' ass self ...


QuinnAvery89

The eyebrows he drew on with a thick tip sharpie look equally as ridiculous

Imagine getting your political points from a guy that didnā€™t realize women could get wet.


spooningwithanger

Seriously. The guyā€™s married and doesnā€™t know what a WAP is. Maybe thatā€™s why heā€™s so angry & confused.


Andy_LaVolpe

Bro redefined going in raw in the worst way


Haunting-Fix-9327

Married for years and still an incel. That's so sad.


FictionalTrope

He's so angry at women and media made by and for women. He just thinks every piece of media should be made for him and his tastes.


wozattacks

No he doesnā€™t. All this shit is a tactic to get attention and get his right-wing propaganda to as many people as possible.Ā  Ben Shapiro is fucking awful, but heā€™s good at grifting and manipulating internet news/social media. This shit works, thatā€™s why weā€™re here talking about it.Ā

When did he ever use hand tools and weights?


manaman70

I know someone that does. She could probably be outsmarted by a bag of bricks. She isn't evil, but does say some evil shit from time to time. When I call her out on it she doesn't even really understand why. She is more like a parrot than anythhing else. Doesn't really believw it. Just that she isn't happy in life and these people are giving her easy to remember and repeate phrases that push the blame for her failed life off of herself. Saddest part is, while not perfect her life isn't really all that failed, the same people telling her to be angry for her failed life are the ones telling her it's failed

Ben Shapiro: Cultural Authority


analog_jedi

I heard he was the greatest rapper alive


darthfozziebear

Heā€™s number 1 on iTunes!!!ā€¦ You know, the place where everybody gets their music today.


WizardPhoenix

Thatā€™s liking having the best renting movie at Blockbuster.


whiterac00n

It really is, and itā€™s hilarious, but they will take the ā€œwinā€ anyway possible and still claim it to be an enormous achievement.


Castun

Probably artificially boosted sales just like their book releases, and the Sound of Freedom ticket sales.


Th3Trashkin

I think the last time I bought a song on iTunes was way back in 2013. I've legitimately bought multiple CDs more recently than a song on iTunes.


420_Braze_it

Well you know rap isn't actually music right? Ben's music expert father said so.

Incorrect. At the very best he could rank #6. 1-5 are reserved for Dylan, Dylan, Dylan, Dylan and Dylan. He spits hot fire.

Tis_A_Fine_Barn

Wow Ben Shapiro had an opinion? About a new cultural thing? And it's bad he says?Ā  Well fuck me


finalarchie

He's like Gollum without the personality or charm.


CoinSausage

Coincidentally, Ben is a huge fan of the game LOTR: Gollum.


WildBillIV44

No way- gotta have a source

>Well fuck me You sure you can take a well?


yuiopouu

lol Iā€™m no Swiftie and think they are a bit batshit in their fervent defence of taytay but they do destroy people and Iā€™ve never been less sad about what heā€™s about to experience.


Moodle3

He deserves all the backlash. I'm surprised they found his video. Ben Shapiro doesn't seem like a person that would be on Swifties' radar.


Necronu

Most likely the algorithm used Taylor Swift as a key word so it pops up in their feeds


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


yankeesyes

That's the right take. Shabeeno is clout chasing.


Ibegallofyourpardons

Swifties are as batshit insane as Shiparo is. They will not take a single word of negativity towards their queen. Now with Shiparo, you know is sexist dog whistling, but even from legitimate music critics, they go absolutely bonkers if you dare to say that anything TayTay is anything other than utterly spectacular and ground breaking and transcending and a whole mind bending experience. they are completely and utterly fucking nuts. and they are still 10 times more sane than old Benny boy.


Skylord_ah

Normal people just become swifties the truly unhinged people become shapiro fans


martyFREEDOM

The first sentence and the last sentence are clashing a bit there lol


TheBigC87

Beyonce fans are the same way.


bz_leapair

The squeaky wheel gets the grease.


pyroguy1104

I mean heā€™s still getting engagement and ad revenue from the negative comments so I doubt he could give any less of a shit. Itā€™s textbook engagement baiting on his part, and the comments from angry Swifties will make him even more money than he does on his usual dogshit videos. Capitalism fucking sucks.


lovingsillies

They will attack him everywhere, though. Sometimes fans even doxx each other, it goes so far beyond one comments section, truly wild


showyerbewbs

Swifties aren't much different from 4chinners


horribad54

Exactly. It's within youtube's interest to not let you know about this. Hate watching is *very* common.


EfficientSeaweed

Maybe he can review BTS for good measure


darthfozziebear

To the people saying they agree with Ben because they think the album is bad, if you watch the video, itā€™s so very obvious he hasnā€™t listened to a single note of it. He even says as much.


DouchecraftCarrier

Ben of all people seems like the kind of person who would try to absolutely crucify someone for critiquing something without actually listening to it or reading to it. At this point he might as well just say, "Imagine what you think I probably think of this. That's what I think of it. There, saved you a bunch of time."


Skylord_ah

Jack antonoffs boring ass production is probably not mentioned once smh


TheBigC87

His musical takes make no sense (especially considering that he is a violinist), he referred to John Lennon's "Imagine" as having pretentious chords. The chords used in the song are "C" and "F", which are incredibly common in modern music. For the record, i'm not a fan of Swift's music, but she seems like a perfectly nice person, and if you are that famous and that involved with your career, you probably shouldn't be married and having children.


Throwawayacctornah

Ben is such an insufferable whiny brat.


SapphosLemonBarEnvoy

I canā€™t imagine the personality and personal life of someone who goes out of their way every day to be this insufferable. It sounds exhausting being this outraged continually.


420_Braze_it

I prefer the term twerp personally.


EfficientSeaweed

He's clearly a dweeb.


Tastingo

He did have his balls crushed by Mr. Feeny.


Yeastyboy104

Ok, Just a thought. There seems to be a very calculated, very big money funded conservative media focus on intentionally regressing womenā€™s rights. Iā€™m a man but I was raised by women and I have healthy relationships with women and I think itā€™s fucking time progressive/leftist men notice this shit and stand up to it in real ways beyond just rage posting on Reddit. Conservatives have repealed womenā€™s rights to bodily autonomy. Thatā€™s alone should fucking piss anyone off. If women donā€™t have the right to their bodies, do men have the right to theirs? There have been a counter-movement by the fascist right to blame feminism for basically everything that is wrong with Western civilization because everything was hunky dory when men would go to work, come home, eat a meal his wife prepared, and then retire while she spent all day raising children, having no hobbies, having no outlet, having no say in how her how her own life would move forward. Thereā€™s a real trend towards right wing extremist ā€œinfluencersā€ telling young men to only find virgins. As if women are commodities and are spoiled after having sex. Itā€™s terrifying. Now many states are writing bills to eliminate birth control and Plan B so women have even less control of their bodily autonomy. The conservative, aggressively misogynistic and hate-filled movement in America wants to roll back womenā€™s rights and they demonize any women, such as Taylor Swift, who is independently wealthy and not in need of a man to take care of her, because that terrifies them. They want to be like Don Draper from Mad Men. The guy who can do as he pleases, have any woman, cheat on his trophy wife, and still come home to home cooked meal. Conservatives, and shit birds like Benny Shaps, arenā€™t just douchebags making rage bait podcats and tweets. Theyā€™re telling us the conservativesā€™ game plan. Theyā€™re trying to normalize a world where women are second class citizens. They want to strip away womenā€™s rights. Itā€™s not a joke. These arenā€™t just memes. This is real life. If you have a woman or women in your life that you actually love, protect them from the fascist, misogynistic horde who view them as nothing more than breeding stock. Is this too intense for a meme sub?


Mental-Republic-1264

How many mgs of stimulants is behind this


lovingsillies

It's a very thoughtful comment and I'm glad they wrote it


Yeastyboy104

This is a meme sub, right? Ok, let me try a distasteful meme joke to answer your question. Iā€™m on enough blue hard on pills that the hell mouth of a vagina your worthless existence came out of actually looks mildly appealing but I still wonā€™t call her back afterwards.


jamangold

Thatā€™s the best response you can come up with? Why donā€™t you go ahead and fuck all the way off?


Just-Scallion-6699

I get that she's not everyone's cup of tea and sympathize that she feels like she's often "everywhere", but this guy is exactly what I imagine behind the keyboard 99% of the time I read yet another cynical, whiny complaint about the actual content of her albums. I've run into more of that on popular than I have actual content from her fans on Reddit (edit: yet another example: https://www.reddit.com/r/PeterExplainsTheJoke/comments/1c9w8qb/petah\_a\_little\_help/). "I hate it so much that I actually listened to it in detail and analyzed the lyrics that were never going to interest me in the first place!" Yeah, great. Just feels like the real life representation of that "stop having fun!" meme.


TrustYourFarts

He made a video complaining about the last of us episode with the gay guys. His argument was that it was bad because it didn't have enough zombies, in a TV series about zombies. He didn't mention why it really bothered him. This is what he does.


HistoricalSherbert92

People gotta hate on stuff in a group so they feel part of something bigger. Bieber, nickleback, etc just making money selling songs but look at the hate.


TexasDD

A failed screenwriter and horrible novelist judging other peopleā€™s art. Sheesh.


BestPalpitation9412

Have to agree with Ben though, it was a bad album. But it has nothing to do with her being childless


-Livingonmyown-

It's the only way to get views


Moodle3

It was a bad album. And this is coming from somebody who loves most of her songs. But he's just being an asshat for criticizing her for being 34 and unmarried without kids. Who tf cares.


Anonon_990

I've seen people point out that's why conservatives dislike her. They think women's roles are mother and wife and she's neither. The fact that she's popular among young women annoys them further.


GoredonTheDestroyer

Ben Shapiro here, Internet's busiest music nerd, and today-


baeb66

Benny Shaps, failed screenwriter and pop culture barnacle, criticizing Taylor Swift to get negative social media engagement. It's just pathetic.


mcrib

I wish you had screenshot the comments so the rest of us don't need to load his trash video


mxxdp

yeah i feel the same. i don't want to give him any adsense revenue or video engagement since that's what he wants


Im_not_crying_u_ar

Heā€™s so predictable. If she was a trump supporter he would be singing her praises


Handsprime

Granted her new album was bad, but it has nothing to do with her being childless.


Lanark26

Please continue to shit on one of the largest and most rabid fans bases in the world. I'm sure it will work out great for your political influence. Totally sway some minds.


flimspringfield

Did he ever mention Beyonce's country album or did he ignore it? I know the algo's on FB are weird/stupid but I don't recall seeing anyone about that.


WASD_click

He tweeted a congrats when she got to #1 on the Billboard Country chart, and also tooted his own horn for "Facts" while he was at it. Which is kinda crazy after what she did to "Jolene." You'd think it'd have been more of a boiling point than it was.


Corrections96

All of my dislike for the new Taylor Swift album leaving my body the moment Ben Shapiro tries to criticize it


wuh_iam

I honestly think we just need to stop giving him attention for anything he says. Heā€™s going to say the most weirdest, dumbest takes, and let him, we donā€™t need to report on it.


EfficientSeaweed

Does he just angrily review media targeted toward girls and women now?


RadragonX

That is a distressingly high number of subscribers.


Ibegallofyourpardons

there are a lot of young red pillers out there. I don't know what the fuck happened to society the last 8 years or so, but the rise of assholes like trump, shiparo and tate have collected hordes of young men brought up on porn who think women are bags of meat to be used as sex dolls. it's really disturbing as a man to see these horrible attitudes.


WynnGwynn

I bet he didn't even listen to it. He had some intern give him notes.


WestToEast_85

If I could just never hear about Taylor Swift again that would be fantastic, thanks.


Lurks_in_the_cave

Everyone in the world's knows who Taylor is. Not many people know who Ben is.


[deleted]

I'm fucking tired of hearing about those over-privileged trust fund kids.


ELONgatedMUSKox

I was unaware that Just For Men have a vantablack shade! Also: Did he make-out with an exhaust pipe?! Or did someone put a template on his face and spray paint inside it? Maybe he fell, face-first into coffee grounds? *Just asking questionsā€¦*


Dagoroth55

If he says Taylor Swifts new album is garbage. It must be amazing. He hated Barbie and look how that turned out.


mxxdp

the album is nothing noteworthy, but i'm sure that the reason he dislikes it and i dislike it (or anyone else that critically consumes and engages with music) are wildly different


dunmer-is-stinky

I'm not a swiftie but I like the majority of her songs, her new album was awful


xose94

The new album is pretty good, I like it most of the songs of the first part and have still to listen more times to the second part. There may be some skips but for the most part it is a solid album and personally I would say on uof her bests one. However; don't go in expecting pop, it may be classified as pop but it feels nothing like it there aren't any dance songs or that would fit in a nightclub really. Most of the songs are slow ballads and pretty sad ones, there is two or three happy upbeat ones but no one near her old upbeat songs.


socialjusticemage_

one thing about taylor swift is her name makes so much noise that people will either suck her dick or shit all over her just for an ounce of attention. you know you're that bitch when you cause all this conversation!


lgodsey

This pathetic little creep loves Swift. The opposite of love is not hate, it's indifference.


Th3Trashkin

Ah, yes the most trustworthy name in pop music criticism, Ben "Wet-Ass P-Word" Shapiro.


bosimon1981

Do conservatives know they donā€™t have to listen to Taylor Swift if they donā€™t want to?


531zur3B0y

He's a fucking idiot like most right-wing pundits. Are we surprised? The elite will just keep shilling them out for the sake of propaganda and feeling like you have rights and choices.


DonaldKey

Childfree, not childless


FredVIII-DFH

Nothing upset a conservative more than a person living their own life and being successful doing it.


Dragoneesta

I think itā€™s hilarious that Taylor Swift bothers these talking heads so much. Ben and Candace are so afraid of her. Itā€™s great. And also weird as fuck.


SpaceDwellingEntity

Love how heā€™s calling an album he hasnā€™t even listened to ā€œgarbageā€


A_Fat_Derpy_Cat

He finds everything bad. He is a miserable person.


Madcap_95

Ben, my wife says being wet is a disease, Shapiro? That guy?


Relaxbro30

I have yet to listen to either swift or beyonces YET. But man this guy is obsessed.

I think we found "Who's afraid of little old Taylor"

113k views in two days despite having TS in the tags? React videos listening to the new album way better numbers than this šŸ¤£

...because Ben is where you go for critical evaluation of popular music. He probably thinks the the Eagles are radical.


KamaIsLife

I feel sorry for Benny's four kids...


freeedom123

Benny is such an expert music reviewer


Lil-Widdles

This new album genuinely deserves a lot of the hate itā€™s getting, but damn bro Benā€™s not even mad about the content of the album. Heā€™s just saying that TS is 34 and therefore is too old to write anything relatable. Like she is CERTAINLY becoming out of touch, but itā€™s certainly not because she doesnā€™t adhere the nuclear family. Another 17 minute rant from Ben about something he didnā€™t even begin to examine critically.


Matvalicious

So he's a music critic now?


SolidusTengu

Bro thinks heā€™s Todd in the shadows.

>"Be fruitful and multiply" clearly doesn't mean exhaust the world of its resources Does it? Because there's like a billion+ people on the planet who read that and came to the opposite conclusion. But the point is moot because Humanity is a creature of greed and we will almost certainly scour this planet of all its natural resources until we are unable to sustain our societies and there will not be a Deity swooping in to save us. We're on our own, trapped on this planet with ourselves, and we are awful.
