That Dang Dad's channel is really good and getting to hear someone talking from the perspective of a former cop in a big urban area is super interesting. He's done a new video that's basically answering recurring questions he gets:

There are basically two types of right wing pundits, either they come from a rich family or they have a rich patron bankrolling them. A common right wing payment scam would be writing a book and then have a rich person funded organization buy their way onto the NYT bestseller list by buying in large lots and then either throwing the books away or giving them away as free gifts for some fundraiser. IIRC Milo was in the rich patron camp but he lost all his backing with his "actually it is fine for older men to sleep with teenage boys" statement.

yeah also the smarter ones are like shapiro who toe the line but mostly keep it "safe" therefore they get tons of backing and poo poo. milo could have been one but he veered too close to the sun aka said hosed up pedo on a podcast and the religious wing of the party loving pounced because they didnt want a Gay near them. the "lucky" ones are like fuckheads like crowder who find their gross nich and make enough to stay afloat.

Not only is Coffin's insight obvious (yes, everything is easier if you're rich, well done Professor), but it also misses the fact that it's probably extremely beneficial to have someone like Elliot Page in the public sphere when there are extremely powerful people, including arguably the world's most famous and wealthy author, trying their best to make anti-trans bigotry "acceptable".

the "misconception of trans issues as bourgeois" is actually a deliberate framing by people who are acting in bad faith, not a misconception. the actual amount of rich trans celebrities that exist is irrelevant to this framing.

he is a trend chaser with alot of hosed up poo poo attached. he is chasing the chapo/rose twitter crowd now and loving that up because most of them are intersectional in various ways plus his history and not being funny. and coffin is pure "no war but class war" type poo poo in the dumbest ways possible. he will go to whatever is popular next either for money or because he is an impressionable idiot.

To look at the 'rich patron' example I remember Cosmonaut Marcus saying Ian Cheong gets paid a packet of dark money every day to sit in Malaysia and post how terrible it is he can't wear his cowboy hat in Winn-Dixie because left.

Ben's an odd case that defies classification because he also has a rich as poo poo and well connected father who both bankrolls him AND controls everything he says and does to a frightening degree. That's how he was able to survive angering the Steve Bannon and the Mercers when he left Breitbart, and how he was able to survive his career doldrums as he aged out of his Teenage Conserative Wunderkind phase and into his Weird 70 Year-Old 12 Year-Old phase before he used Gamergate to rebuild his brand. That transition is usually the end phase for the careers of most other Teenage Conservative Wunderkinds, because no one wants to hear from a weird 20-something Conservative Loser in Right Wing Media anymore, and even more of them turn liberal or at least normal as they get away from their parents and their toxic ideology. Shapiro The Elder had his son in a bear trap, so he couldn't escape.

The real test for Ben (and his sister, for that matter) is going to be what happens when his creepy domineering helicopter dad finally inevitably dies...

i dont think he is humorless, thats more Jonathan McIntosh domaine but at least that dudes consistent with his beliefs and intersectional even if he is a weird prude alot who defends dumb poo poo and attacks even dumber poo poo at times. coffin is basically trying to do this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y_UTiHyFx3U but with really dumb down version of marxism instead evangelical poo poo.

Jesus christ saying that trans celebrities are illegitimate because they have money is like a hair's breadth away from saying that being trans is mere bourgeois decadence that must be swept away, something real nazis do say every day to redirect class tensions toward vulnerable populations that get brutalized and murdered every day. In fact, it's basically shading class reductionism into red-brown progression fascism and if Coffin weren't so stupid and petty I'd say it's deliberate.

Oh yeah, his dad has been a full-on Stage Mom for him for decades now. I remember reading a article like 10 years ago, when Ben was an alleged adult, about him giving a speech at a pro-Isreal dinner and the author of the article coming up to him at his table afterwards to try and take him to task for all the pro-genocide things he said on stage regarding Palestinians, and as Ben stammered and stuttered, his dad stood up from the table, physically placed himself between Ben and the author and told her "You do not say ANYTHING to my son. If you have an issue with him, you talk to me and me alone." and repeatedly told Ben to shut up when he tried to defend himself directly.

Fast forward to 2016, when Ben left Brietbart because they wen too crazy for even him, Steve-O Bannon and his other snickering cronies thought it was be a good idea to own Ben publicly by using the penname his dad wrote articles with at Breitbart to publish a giant "Ben Shapiro Sucks, Also Hi I'm His Dad, I Got A Job Here At Breitbart Too To Watch Over My Son And Make Sure He Doesn't Do Anything I Disapprove Of" letter on Shapiro The Greater and Shapiro The Lesser's way out the door.

Going through Poppy Shapiro's by-lines on Breitbart's archive revealed he was nothing but his son's personal hype man, writing article after article about how you should check out this hip new whiz kid I've just discovered and his name is Ben Shapiro, and I'm totally not related to him at all, why do you ask [tugs collar nervously].


The whole Shapiro family is a series of creepy interlocking grifts with Daddy as the linchpin.
