You dun goofed. Black Lives Matter, I was okay with you before, sort of. Now I’m pissed.

So tonight, I saw Ben Shapiro. I’m not sure what I expected, but I got a grim reminder of how fucked up the SJW mindset is. I came early and I bonded with some people in line over trigger warning jokes and made some enemies over my outward support of his right to speak. I should probably say right now that I’m a moderate that’s too liberal for conservatives and too conservative for liberals, and I don’t agree with everything the man says.

As for the event itself, I was surprised at how much I agreed with Ben. He mainly kept his viewpoints tethered to statistics, which I have mad respect for. His speech was overall pretty tame, but he had a lot of sharp zingers. 

But let’s not talk about what I thought of what he said, because I’m here to tell you about what actually went down. So from the beginning, it was apparent that BLM protesters were going to be present. Standing in line, people were already venting about how awful this was going to be. It was a small venue, so not a lot of people were let in. Even before Ben was introduced, you could hear “black lives matter” chanted over and over and over again and violent banging on the door. Thank god there were policemen present. 

So Ben gives his talk, and here lies the biggest surprise for me. There were clear BLM supporters all around inside, but during the speech, what do I hear from them? Barely anything. A few gasps, a few muttered “no”s, but nobody actively challenged him. The loudest people were outside, AKA the only people who weren’t able to hear the speech.

But the real juicy bit comes after the speech. When the doors are opened, I’m greeted with a smaller number of protesters than anticipated. And oh, boy. Oh boy, oh boy, oh boy are they some of the most stupid people I have ever met. They’re scribbling shit on posters, they’re knocking papers out of people’s hands, they’re yelling at others. So, naturally, I interview some of them. Here’s a particularly special one to me.

Me: Why are you protesting? Did you see him?
SJW chick: No, I wasn’t let in, but he’s a racist.
Me: Okay, why?
SJW chick: Because he is. He is a racist.
Me: And how did you come to that conclusion?
SJW: He’s against diversity and affirmative action.
Me: If you were in there, you would have heard that he’s against racial diversity just for the sake of diversity. He’s not actually a racist.
SJW: But he is a racist! I don’t need to hear him to know that!

If I wasn’t there myself, I’d call it a strawman. Well, the people we’re dealing with did make this, so I guess it’s not a surprise:

Christ, you guys are disgusting. Trying to censor a guy just because he disagrees with you, trying to storm the venue, knocking phones and fliers out of supporters’ hands and yelling at them to stop when they don’t lift a finger, protesting that he’s able to give his voice, when you don’t even listen to a word he says. You just assume that you hate him.

I just wish the aim wasn’t to censor. I just wish they could listen and respectfully give their opinions back. I just hate the way we deal with opposing opinions today 😦

omg

I’m not a fan of Ben Shapiro, but holy fuck, do these people realize what they did? They’re equating a Jewish man to Hitler. This is fucking appalling.
