Ben Shapiro much like other conservatives is a very jovial, very happy about
the fact that Elon musk has purchased Twitter and we'll be making it private.
Now Shapiro has some suggestions on what Elon Musk should do as soon as this deal
is finalized, let's take a look.
>> Musk needs to come in and he needs to fire everyone.
I mean everyone and Twitter has hundreds if not thousands of employees and
in studies done of the donations, the political donations that people
working at Twitter 98.7% of all donations from the people working
at Twitter went to democrats in the last election cycle 98.7%.
So it doesn't matter what rules Elon Musk sets top down if the so
called Twitter deep state is still implementing its favorite policies because
this is the thing that Donald Trump found this out when he was president.
You can name the policy top down.
But if everybody at the State department hates your guts,
they're just going to undermine your policy.
You can name the policy top down.
But if everybody in the FBI decides to spend the next four years ginning up
nonsense about Russian conspiracy theories, you can't get much done.
When Musk takes over the company,
he should do what every boss at every company does and
he should review the employee list and figure out who is good and who is bad.
>> I have a lot I wanna say, but
like let's just have a second of reality for a second.
It's just twitter like the comparisons to like the FBI and
like everyone just calm down for a second.
Also, I don't know who Ben Shapiro has been hanging out with lately.
It seems like it might be Meghan McCain cuz like,
there's a little valley girl tinged like speaking style lately.
Can we cue up that video one more time?
I just wanna watch the first few seconds.
It's very McCain esque.
>> Yeah, I hear you and I love making fun of this style too, but
I just wanna scream hashtag cancel culture.
>> Yeah. >> Cancel culture.
My God, getting somebody fired for
their political opinions is the worst thing in the world.
I can't believe liberals wanna cancel people.
He just said fire them.
Fire all of them.
>> Because they've donated to democrats allegedly.
I don't even know how- > [CROSSTALK] >> Who cares if that number is made up or
not, because the intent is what matters.
Shapiro said, yeah, every at the end, he's like, everybody comes in and
decides who's good and who's bad, but wait a minute you said based
on their political donations, not based on whether they do a good job of work or not.
Imagine if a progressive had bought Twitter or anything else.
And I said, you know what,
find out who donated to Republicans and fire them all.
And he's like, my God cancel culture, go cancel culture right?
Now he's like fire them all, fire hundreds of them cuz they don't agree with us.
Ben, you have always been a liar.
You have never had any principles.
All you've ever had is feelings.
I don't like liberals.
I wanna fire them all.
Don't you fire a single conservative no matter what racist, horrible,
terrible things they say.
They have a right to be racist.
We have a right okay.
Okay God bless.
[CROSSTALK] Firing people who disagree with you for?
You never believed in free speech, you liar.
100% caught.
>> No, I mean, look they're all liars.
When they claim they're against cancel culture,
they also simultaneously support all sorts of right wing policies,
which essentially like codify cancel culture in the form of canceling books,
teachers, all sorts of things that they don't like.
So of course they're hypocrites, of course they're full of it.
But also think about what he's saying there in regard to any given workplace,
right?
What he is essentially saying is every boss throughout the country,
it will be unable to conduct business to carry out their daily duties unless
every single person who works for them agrees with them politically.
So basically, hey CEOs put a list of your employees together,
start investigating them.
Maybe do some enhanced interrogation, maybe waterboard your employees figure
out what their political leanings are because if their political leanings
don't agree with yours 100% how are you going to be able to do your job?
You're not going to be able to do your job.
It's just like the deep state what?
Okay. >> Yeah, and in essence what he's saying
there, and not, in essence, this is exactly what he's saying.
He's like, I don't care how good they are at their job,
I don't care if they're technically correct, if they're apt,
if they're actually excel at their jobs, if they're not politically correct,
they have donated to the wrong political party, you should fire them.
So right wing you're in favor of that.
Just make up your mind.
Are you in favor, do you love cancel culture or do you hate it?
Which one is it?
They love it as long as the individuals being canceled,
do not agree with their political views.
That's it, that's how it works.
That's how it works.
>> Isn't it amazing that the Joe Rogan's and the Bill Maher's of
the world have never once shown an example of right wing cancel culture.
That they see this and they're like, [CROSSTALK]
>> With right wingers who listen,
they surround themselves with right wingers who just
repeat regurgitate the same thing over and over again,
Joe Rogan is one of the most impressionable people I've ever met.
It's like a five year old, I'm just keeping it real, he does.
If he's in the room with someone who's left wing all of a sudden he sounds very
left wing, he's in a room full of right wingers.
All of a sudden he's like a far right winger in his commentary, in his opinions.
That's who Joe Rogan is.
Which is why it's a little like, I wish he wasn't so impressionable,
I wish he would actually speak up for himself, informed decisions or
form opinions that he genuinely believes in,
rather than just being agreeable with anyone who's in the room with him.
But putting that aside, look, the fact of the matter is everyone in this debate is
such a hypocrite and it's so infuriating because it's the same cycle over and
over again, the right wing puffing their chest,
claiming that their total warriors for free speech.
Then they go after individuals pretty aggressively who don't agree with
their speech.
Yes, everyone gets annoyed with the finger wagging on Twitter.
A lot of that finger wagging is carried out by the left, the so
called online left.
It's annoying, but to equate that with individuals who literally go out of their
way to fire people to do away with the livelihood that individuals rely on in
order to feed themselves and their families, to keep a roof over their heads
and their families heads, it's just a completely different animal.
And that's what Ben Shapiro was advocating for there, that's what lives of TikTok was
advocating there, where they would frame educators who were just trying to provide
a comfortable safe environment for students who might not be, heterosexual.
They wanted to get those teachers fired because they disagreed with them creating
an environment that was safe for students who might have a sexual
orientation that's different from the norm.
They wanted those teachers gone and
they succeeded in getting many of those teachers fired.
That's why libs of TikTok was so incredibly nefarious.
>> Yeah. And by the way, they, of course,
as we've told you before on the show,
the person who started cancel culture was Barry Weiss.
Then she ironically like Trump did with the issue of Fake News.
He did the fake news during 2016 campaign and then he claimed others did fake news.
Barry Weiss went around the country trying to get professors fired if they ever dared
to criticize Israel or support Palestinian human rights.
And then she went and turned around.
So can you believe people are trying to get people fired?
It's cancel culture.
She is the biggest liar I've ever seen, the biggest hypocrite ever.
And Bill Maher missed it.
He's like, Barry Weiss champion of cancel culture.
Ben Shapiro, his dear dear dear friend that he has over and over again.
He goes on his show they go on shows over and over again and Ben Shapiro says,
fire everyone who disagrees with me.
Bill Mark, just can't find it.
He's left this.
So supposedly a liberal and he's like are cancel culture from the right,
I don't know, all my friends are right wing.
I can't see it.
By the way, it's not just those guys.
It's almost everybody on the right.
Steve Bannon has said a number of times that Trump should have shock troops if he
wins again and he should do mass firing of thousands of people inside the government.
Because if you disagree with the right wing, they want you fired cuz they
love cancel culture, they love just say it if you're right winger just say it,
I love cancel culture and then we're done with it.
We'll leave you alone because at least you're not the world's biggest hypocrite.
But as it is, you know, you're not gonna say it instead,
you're gonna pretend the left wing is doing it.
And again we win, you lose cuz we have all of the facts and you have none of them.
