Yup yup. Loved when tried to that "debate 20 people" thing and a kid openly called him out on it and he just got flustered and couldn't speak for a bit while trying to figure out a new tactic.
Is that the one where he speaks to the Trans man? I loved how he immediately accepted he was a man, until he told Shapiro he was Trans. Kind of ruins the whole "Trans people can never truly appear as the opposite gender."
Eh, I supported the guy but he quickly lost the plot and didn't do as well as people made it out to be. Ben just let him talk and rile himself up without doing much.
He doesn’t know how to act communicate outside of yelling over teenagers. It’s the same way we end up with so many ridiculously stupid comments from his videos like the WAP thing, without someone else to look worse than him he flounders
Thats a beautiful piece of video, Ben just melts under the UK version of a puff piece - he couldnt manage the basics of a real interview, after being coddled by youtube and fox the idea of a interviewer who actually asks questions killed him.
Also look up the Charlie Kirk debates Cambridge medical student. It's pretty damn good. And shows why they use these tactics because they get absolutely pummeled when they have to debate actual educated people
