The two pundits traded personal insults on social media this week after video surfaced of Ben Shapiro calling Candace Owens’ comments on Israel “disgraceful.”
No government anywhere has a right to commit a genocide, ever. There is no justification for a genocide. I can’t believe this even needs to be said or is even considered the least bit controversial to state.
That is what drew the ire of Shapiro.
“The question is about Candace Owens,” Shapiro said in the video posted to X by user @LoomerLs. “I think her behavior during this has been disgraceful, without a doubt.”
Shapiro’s answer was met with applause from the audience, followed by his acknowledgment that Owens “still works at my company.”
“I think that her faux sophistication on these particular issues has been ridiculous,” Shapiro added. “Everybody can see the moves that she’s making and the things that she’s saying, and I find them disreputable.”
Owens tweeted:
That is what drew the ire of Shapiro.
“faux sophistication”. Pot calling kettle black.
Just using the term “faux sophistication” is faux sophistication if I’ve ever seen it.
I don’t think I’ve ever seen a more pretentious douchebag other than Jordan Peterson.
Who, Ben? Fucking Aquaman?!
