Is Ben Shapiro A Liar Or Just Lazy And Stupid?

Post 181694 by The Whelk deleted for the following reason: A couple of problems here: To avoid overly OP editorialized framing, it's best to use direct quotes and show that they are quotes, also it seems that one of these is about a different person entirely? and finally, perhaps a more organized approach, maybe with an article about this guy might help. As is, it's several long clips addressing various positions he apparently takes, but sort of a disorganized pot luck of "ugh, this guy," that requires quite a bit of time investment -- particularly if one is not already familiar with him and his arguments, and why he matters more than any other average ugh-guy spouting his opinions.
