Which is where the regressive discourse of today is inevitably heading.

Yeah, I have been following him very closely since his first appearance on Joe Rogan's podcast. Unlike some other people one thing I really like about him is if he is confronted with a question he doesn't know enough about he will flat out say he doesn't know enough and is looking to learn more about it.
I also enjoy listening to Ben Shapiro, while I don't agree with a lot of his stances (namely pro life) I do find it appalling that he cannot even go onto campus's anymore because we basically allow people who have different views to make threats of violence and instead of letting police and lawmen do their jobs to protect free speech they just shut the events down. The guy is an orthodox Jew and is labeled as a Nazi. Is this really the way we are going?
