The Truth About Ben Shapiro: Wrong on Almost Every Issue

After years of supposedly railing against cancel culture and whining that his site, Daily Wire, was harpooned by the left-wing censorship machine, Shapiro and his clique of Israel First activists have apparently decided that censorship is fine, as long as they’re the ones doing it. The self-proclaimed champions of open debate are now furious that Tucker Carlson interviewed controversial figure Nick Fuentes.

But don’t be fooled. Their outrage isn’t about ideas they don’t like. It’s all about control and who will be driving this political machine after Trump walks off into the sunset. . .

For Ben and his fellow hall monitors, this is a divide and conquer mission. Their strategy is simple: label the truth-tellers as “Nazis” and hope fear and outrage do the rest of the work. It’s the oldest, dirtiest trick in the left’s playbook, and they’ve stolen it word for word. . .

What’s happening here isn’t about protecting conservatism—it’s about gatekeeping it. Shapiro and his neocon buddies don’t want a movement that’s bold, messy, and unpredictable. They want one they can manage. So now, every time someone challenges the official narrative, out comes the “Nazi” label and the moral panic.

Free speech doesn’t come with a permission slip. You don’t have to like Nick Fuentes, Tucker Carlson, or anyone else in that orbit to understand the bigger principle at stake. You either believe in open debate, or you don’t. You can’t champion free speech while running around the playground blowing a whistle every time someone says something uncomfortable.
