Why won’t the NYT cover Ted Cruz ignoring @cenkuygur’s debate challenge and $10k offer? Or is only @Ocasio2018 required to jump for money?https://twitter.com/nytimes/status/1028004574836219904 …

Every Shapiro debate is ridden w/straw-men, false premises, & willfully obtuse talking points in order to take complex, nuanced subject matter & reduce it to the painfully simplistic to arrive at a "gotcha" moment so he can strut around and feel like a big man. Every single one.

Aka, sophistry

This is the merely the first two paragraphs of an article he wrote on same sex marriage in 2015. Two paragraphs!pic.twitter.com/wkfGhcrvEf

He’s a truly bad writer. Needs to stick to talking fast so people don’t get that he’s not making sense.

Says someone that wouldn’t dare debate
@benshapiro because you would look equally as foolish as@cenkuygur looked when he tried -
I’m confused. What public office is
@benshapiro running for.

@ryangrim Shapiro has earned it. He is one of the biggest conservative commentators there is. Good civil discourse is what we need. -
Ben Shapiro is only civil under a very broad definition of the word that includes everyone except those who explicity threaten violence against those with whom they debate. Shapiro regularly debases himself to hyperbole, ad hominem, reductio ad absurdum, etc. using
-
mockery and condescension just like the rest of them. He has been lifted to the status he currently enjoys largely by people who have trouble identify legitimate exceptionalism in his field. He might seem civil when compared to Hannity or Limbaugh but that bar is low.

She equates asking for a debate to catcalling. On the scale you are presenting I’m pretty sure that’s much worse.
-
No, she doesn’t. She equates a man feeling entitled to acknowledgment when throwing out a random challenge to debate to catcalling. It’s an apt comparison. Catcallers believe that they’re deserving of any random woman’s time, energy, and attention, much like Ben did here.
-
He did it in a Respectful manner. Asking for a debate is NOT catcalling. Not even close to the same thing. He originally asked for a discussion. He is a member of the media. If say an economist asked trump for a debate would that be like catcalling?
-
Here’s some advice for Ben that he and many men like him may find to be novel idea: if you want anyone to take you seriously and spend and significant amount of time or energy on you, try introducing yourself first because you’re not entitled to any of it. This is the problem.
-
Just because he asked nicely does not mean it was respectful in spirit or in practice. She did not saying it was catcalling. She said it was like catcalling. He has no business throwing out a random challenge to someone he does not know from his radio show, tweeting out, and

I honestly doubt he was a smart 12 year old. Know-it-all 12 year old? Maybe, Smart? No.

Ben’s logic is so stupid Ocasio Cortez says she doesn’t take any big money. Ben offers her $10,000. Like Dafuq

-
(And he can't legally offer $10,000 to her account. That's what get Dinesh in prison.)
-
Right it has trap written all over it.
-
Yes. If you have read anything he's written, he'll invent facts and rely on a bunch of logical fallacies to support his opinion & declare victory. Here are just two paragraphs for an article he wrote on SSM. This is what she'd have to deal with and it would be a waste of time.pic.twitter.com/Xa7gzFDB5X

Shit I heard he wrote some homophobic things but this is worse than I thought disgusting.

Here is the rest of it. He's just a tool.https://townhall.com/columnists/benshapiro/2015/07/01/the-real-goal-of-the-samesex-marriage-movement-n2019553 …
