> It's simply a verifiable description of Shapiro's views.
A description that's verifiable insofar as the quality of sources that the author cited. And the author provided sources in the form of urls on an image, and most people don't click on those. I'll link them up here, and let the readers decide whether this unverified twitter account's description holds up:
1. https://www.dailywire.com/news/21144/complete-transcript-ben-takes-berkeley-daily-wire https://www.dailywire.com/news/21144/complete-transcript-ben...
2. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVQke0HkLiU https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aVQke0HkLiU
3. Author doesn't actually provide the source, we just have to take the author's word that the video is as described.

Even just taking the time to look down and compare the statements made on the image and the quotes that were used to justify these statements revealed the kind of artistic license that was taken in the interpretation of the sources at hand.
