Ben Shapiro Complains About Getting Smeared As a White Supremacist…After Falsely Calling Trump Supporters White Supremacists!
The pint-sized king of the Never Trumpers is learning a hard lesson about irony.
Neoconservative media commentator Ben Shapiro, a leader of the ‘Never Trump’ faction of the conservative movement, took to social media earlier today to complain about being unfairly stigmatized as a white supremacist by fake news reports.
So, we now have two separate NYT columnists arguing that all conservatives are basically violent white supremacists, but slightly more subtle. Let me put this gently: f*** yourselves. pic.twitter.com/aqJjZjfPra

I have been fighting against these white supremacist monsters for years. The FBI arrested a white supremacist threatening me and my family two months ago. I was their number one online target in 2016 according to the ADL. I have 24/7 security because of them.

Your conflation of all conservatives with white supremacist monsters who despise actual conservative principles — you know, like the universal, non-racially-based applicability of the principles of Western civilization — is cynical, deliberate, and disgusting.

The only problem with Shapiro’s whining is he has frequently insinuated that others inside the conservative movement are white supremacists, making him guilty of the exact same accusations he has hurled toward the fake news media.
Well @benshapiro
You said I had “borderline white supremacist theories,” which is totally false.
But now you don’t like being lumped in with white supremacists?
You can’t complain about the fire if you helped strike the match. https://t.co/rB4zIPJM9U

The media call you alt-right ben, they call everyone alt-right. So him asking for a definition is pretty fair.

Shapiro has also embarked on a shameful anti-white crusade in lieu of this past weekend’s mass shootings in El Paso, TX and Dayton, OH. Shapiro even parroted the leftist Twitter hashtag #WhiteSupremacistTerrorism to assist his political enemies in their witch hunt to demonize President Trump.
#WhiteSupremacistTerrorism is terrorism and should be treated as such. It is an evil scourge that must be rooted out and destroyed.

In a series of re-tweets, Shapiro expressed sympathy with the ideas of unconstitutional gun control, federal terrorist profiling of white right-wing activists, and Draconian internet censorship as a way to stop mass shootings.
Shapiro also bragged to a leftist academic about his years of social justice advocacy, an obvious point of personal pride for this leader of the Never Trumpers.
While Shapiro may complain about how he is unfairly profiled as a white supremacist by the fake news media, he has nobody to blame but himself. He has frequently used the exact same attacks on his own personal enemies in the conservative movement for self-serving purposes.
Soy Boy Ben has made his little bed, and now he has to sleep in it.

Jim Acosta Calls Conservative Media a “Disinformation-Industrial Complex” and “Potential Existential Threat”
Project much, Jim?
CNN’s Jim Acosta appeared on Brian Stelter’s Sunday morning show “Reliable Sources” to call conservative media a “potential existential threat” that could “cause more suffering.”
Referring to the on-screen graph that shows a significant drop in engagement with Trump-related articles, Stelter asked Acosta if he thought this “quiet period” was temporary. Acosta replied as follows:
“I think it is temporary. I do think what this country faces right now […] I describe it as the disinformation-industrial complex, and that is Trump and his people, conservative outlets like Fox News, and then conservative websites and organizations aligned with the president, and conservative platforms. These three pillars of this disinformation-industrial complex essentially helped put Trump in power, kept him in power, sustained his grip on the Republican Party, and it remains a threat to our democracy. It is the reason why there were hundreds of Trump supporters storming the Capitol on January 6. And until that poison, that toxin, is drained from the national political discourse in this country, Brian, I do think that these forces represent a potential existential threat to this country and have the potential to come back and cause more suffering in the days to come.”
Acosta does not seem to realize, however, that the popularity and influence of right-wing outlets like Big League Politics are direct consequences of “journalists” like him and networks like CNN. They’re the original traffickers in disinformation and in fanning the flames of fearmongering. Alternative conservative media would not have taken off if the mainstream media weren’t so unbearably leftist.
