"And as far as the free speech situation, what I will say is that no company has the obligation to literally pay anyone. The Daily Wire is a publisher, it is not a platform. I have never called for Candace, or anyone else, for that matter, to be banned from YouTube, to be banned from X, to be banned from any platform. That is a different story, obviously, when it comes to any publisher. Any publisher gets to make decisions about what it wishes to purvey and not."

"Nihilism, narcissism, and hedonism are natural results of the chaotic existential subjectivism popularized by the Left. If the hallmark of the baby boomers was rebellion, the hallmark of my generation is jadedness. Nothing really matters—were cosmically alone."
Ben Shapiro"Baby boomers and their music rebelled against parents because they were parents—nurturing, attentive, and overly present (as those teenagers often saw it) authority figures. Todays teenagers and their music rebel against parents because they are not parents—not nurturing, not attentive, and often not even there."
Ben Shapiro"There will be no conversation in which you call me a racist, and I explain why Im not a racist. Thats a conversation for idiots."
Ben Shapiro"Real-life teens wish they could live like the teens Hollywood promotes. Everyone has sex, and relationships are deep and meaningful, even if they only last a couple episodes. There are never any consequences to any action, except for experiencing the angst of teenage life alongside the characters. When a generation becomes desensitized to the ramifications of the culture around them, its natural to seek out any sort of feeling, even angst."
Ben Shapiro"We believe freedom is built upon the twin notions that God created every human in His image, and that human beings are capable of investigating and exploring Gods world. Those notions were born in Jerusalem and Athens, respectively."
Ben Shapiro"A man may be judged by his standard of entertainment as easily as by the standard of his work."
