The most recent PragerU video by conservative commentator Ben Shapiro struck me as irrefutably true. While he inserted his opinions into the interpretation of the facts, there were no real stretches that needed to be made. One could be on the political left and still come away feeling they learned something profound about western society, the importance of Athens and Jerusalem as the epicenters of reason and Biblical teachings, and how history points to a supremacy of western civilization that has evolved into the paramount of proper human thought, governance, and moral values today.
But that’s not what happened. With just over 200,000 views as I write this article, the video above has garnered over a thousand thumbs down. Compare that to the previous two similar videos that have over a million views and less than a thousand thumbs down. Even Dennis Prager’s recent video which, like Shapiro’s videos, get extra thumbs down regardless of the content, it still has less than three thousand thumbs down with over two million views.
What is it about Shapiro’s videos that earn the the ire of the left on YouTube? Perhaps it isn’t the content of the videos but the person himself who draws so much negative attention. I don’t agree with everything Shapiro believes just as I don’t agree with everything anyone else in the world believes. We’re don’t have to be automatons to still be considered like-minded and I find I agree with Shapiro’s perspectives much more than I disagree. But one thing that can be said about Shapiro is that his arguments for his perspectives are challenging to counter. This, perhaps more than anything else, is why he is so widely panned by the left. They can’t beat him. They won’t join him. Therefore, their only recourse is to suppress him. They do this with their thumbs down.
Why is western society so successful? For the short answer to that, watch this PragerU video by Ben Shapiro. It’s elegant and frankly difficult to argue against, but that won’t stop the left from trying.
Will you help revive the American Conservative Movement?
Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our new GiveSendGo. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Truth Based Media
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
