Good distinction.

Ben's a good litmus test to distinguish between those who are narrative-driven vs. facts driven. Ben's the latter, almost to a fault. Doesn't mean he can't be wrong, but the majority of folks who knee-jerk react to him one way or the other usually are.

Oh you think?



, while they're synonyms, I'd probably opt for 'unstable' instead of deranged. A little better connotation.

don't think that its crazy to initially believe it's a false flag. Especially if you're not a person involved in the investigation.




I'm biased to believe it's a false flag, but I have nothing but my own admitted bias to base that upon, if I'm being honest. I believe my hunch will be proven correct in due time, but a neutral initial response is prudent, IMO. I think that's all Ben's saying.

For those who still can’t figure it out, this why people don’t like Zionist Ben. He preemptively cuts the legs out from underneath republicans so that they are forced into a losing position.

He’s adored by republicans who are stuck in the mindset of winning by losing. Win insignificant debate club arguments no one cares about and lose on elections and policy. “Hey, at least we look good losing!”

All it means is people are so cynical about the state of politics in this country that the idea of a false flag come to mind immediately.

It has nothing to do with being “deranged”.

Agreed. I'm also sure he'll explain himself further in his podcast.

I could buy this argument.

It does come to mind but you have to filter it through some rationality. A lot of things come to mind here, but I don't have a clue what the outcome will be

Not an unreasonable take.

The question you have to ask is, are Democrats capable of this? Yes, yes they are. Just ask Justice Kavanaugh.

All probably true

1) Shapiro too concerned with being seen as beyond partisan pettiness
2) The possibility this was done by a liberal is not negligible
3) You're probably deranged or trolling or both if you're 100% convinced this was a false flag in the half hour after the reports break

If he is blind to the possibility he's deranged.

Good point. This is also quite the step up from the typical racist note left for a waitress gig.

Being skeptical is one thing, but claiming it's a false flag the second you hear it makes me think you're unstable.
