Nobody, but nobody, asked for uber-conservative commentator Ben Shapiro to produce an anti-woke, pro-white rap song. And yet, here we are.

    Remember how Ben Shapiro saw Barbie like six times over the summer to prove how feminist and woke movies are box office poison…. Or something equally stupid?

    This guy is the prototypical cringey right wing loser.

    My money like Lizzo, my pockets are fat

    Why would the size of his pockets have anything to do with how much money he has? Certainly he doesn’t have pockets big enough to hold all of his money. He’ll, I’m broke as fuck compared to him, and my normal size pockets couldn’t contain all of my money (on payday, at least)…

    Homie I’m epic, don’t be a WAP

    What does he mean by “WAP?”, Ben has clearly already proven logically that a pussy ‘that’ wet is impossible, and anything approaching that level of wetness would be signs of a very serious pussy disease. Perhaps he means “weak ass person”, but those people also have major problems, the least of which being the inability to stand or walk for long periods of time, constituting a very real disability…

    You’re going to prison, I’m on television

    These things are not mutually exclusive, as Donald Trump has demonstrated.

    My comment section all woke Karens

    Then who are the people going to get this to “Billboard number one?” Are “woke Karens” known to ironically support people?

      I get that you’re choosing to be literal and choosing to be dumb, but it doesn’t work.

      First point could well sign to a thick wallet, which is good enough analogy for wealth. (Also doesn’t need that many fifties until we start talking about thousands. Fits in pocket.)

      Second point, if we go by the meaning of “weak ass person”, it makes sense. It encourages not to be that.

      Third point is that lyrics are ambiguous, could mean whatever.

      Fourth point has a lot wrong. He is not necessarily talking about the comments of the song. Rather he might be talking about other comments he receives. Also afaik the engagement comes from the amount song listened/clicked, not from the amount commented and not from the nature of them. Also not ironically support, rather inadvertenly.

      Please do comment back.

      Edit: Fixed typo food -> good

      His novel is hilariously bad. The Behind the Bastards podcast has done several episodes where they go through it and mock the shit out of his obvious self-insert character who’s not only 6’5” but he’s the toughest, coolest guy who ever lived.

      I have a sneaking suspicion that a percentage of what he does is an act (I think the enormous asshole part is real) but he deliberately does and says things that he knows will get “the libs” to follow him on socials, retweet and comment and share to laugh at him knowing that the only thing that counts is that his hashtag is trending which keeps him relevant.

    It’s so funny to me that none of these people seem to have any idea what they’re mad about.

      that would require thought and reflection. these people are reactionary opportunists. they don’t do ‘thought’ or ‘reflection’, only ‘outrage’.

    I think it will all make a lot more sense when the actor / performance artist that we know as “Shapiro” retires and speaks openly about their motivations behind their satirical character. I also look forward to hearing the rationale behind the Fucker Carlson character too.

    See I hear Ben Shapiro rap song, and I just assume he did “Jesus Christ is my [n-word]” only unironically, and with added verses that prove he knows nothing about Jesus, half the lyrics wrong, and some blatant transphobia

    I’m sure it will get as much attention as his movies which I also haven’t and will never see.
