Today in stopped clocks being right twice a day, right wing nutjob Ben Shapero engages in a debate at Oxford, and gets a student debating him to argue that the British did not bomb civilians in World War II.
This assertion is so completely ludicrous, that the crowd, who are primed to meet Ben Shapiro with mockery and derision, as all people of good will are inclined to do, publicly makes it clear that this woman is a complete prat.
You could watch the video below, but honestly, I do not want to inflict that sort of pain on my reader(s), so here is a transcript of this brief exchange.
Palestinian Advocate: | It's clearly unjust what the IDF has been doing to the Palestinians because there's a vast disparity between the number of Palestinians being killed and the number of Israelis. |
Ben Shapiro: | I mean I would certainly hope that Israel is killing more Hamas ……… |
Palestinian Advocate: | This isn't a conflict this isn't a conflict this is one-sided ethnic cleansing. |
Ben Shapiro: | Again, I'm just asking you if based on the numbers more Germans died than Brits in World War II. Did that mean that British the British were wrong in World War II because they did. Many more Germans side than Brits, Based on the numbers that mean that Britain was wrong in World War II? |
Palestinian Advocate: | In World War II, Britain wasn't bombing civilian … civilians. There’s a clear difference. |
Completely Loses the Crowd | |
Ben Shapiro: | You should talk to you should talk to the people in Dresden, but you can't ‘cause they're dead. |
The stoopid, it burns.
