Ben Shapiro is definitely a fascist and most certainly a racist but that doesn’t make him alt-right.
What the hell is alt-right anyways? As in, what are the fundamental principles of its ideology?
- FFRefresh 6y agoHow do you determine who is a fascist? Do you take into account any counter-evidence when making such a deduction?
- TLightful 6y agoTheir eyebrows.
- DSingularity 6y agoI’m not throwing the fascist label because he is a right-winger. I’m throwing it because he supports a military which rules over a subset of the civilian population with the merciless boot. And that military rule is the Israeli rule over Palestinians in the occupied territories. That’s why I called him a fascist racist.
- xupybd 6y agoI'm honestly surprised to hear you accuse Ben of racism. What stances does he hold that lead you to that conclusion?
- DSingularity 6y agoRead his own words. One tweet [1] is still up about how Israelis “like to build” (settlements) while Arabs like to “bomb and live in sewage”. For your own information, the context is regarding the settlements that Israelis like to build in Palestinian territory. The Palestinian area is depopulated by uzi-wielding settlers and military bulldozers. All countries of the world (including the US) consider these settlements a violation of human rights and international laws. What’s more racist than that?

- xupybd 6y agoAh fair call. I had not factored in his Zionist views. I think he has apologised for that one but it still shows some genuine racism.
