Ben when he sees an old man sit at the park instead of shovelling coal:
😡
Lol underrated comment
😂😂
Ben wants you to die on the job
Ben thinks Amazon is doing everything right letting employees literally die on the job and telling other workers to just step over the corpse.
Ben Shapiro words here be like: "Arbeit macht frei". Hmm, where this slogan we heard or seen before?
He wants you born on the job too. These ghouls would have us in the mines and warehouses as babies if they could.
Like Japanese work ethics.
He's a mouthpiece for corporate America.
So Biden is too old to be president but people should never retire? PICK A SIDE BEN!
You really didnt see the false equivalency there?
@@Joe-pc3hsplease explain it to us
@sunfeatherX3 people should never retire and Joe Biden is obviously not a people. Checkmate, Commie.
right!?
I'm sure Biden would be fine as a Wal Mart greeter. But not as President.
Ben made like 15 different contradictory arguments in this, and all of them were too batshit for a Lex Luthor monologue.
Also at least Lex Luthor let's you know he is taking the position because he is a dick, he loves being a dick. Like the time when he cured his sister of her paralysis then reparalysed her and said to her I am making you sick so long as superboy is alive. You know out of pure spite for superboy and dickishness.
Name just ONE of the contradictory statements.
@@jeremyrangel8138 LOL we found someone with even less critical thinking skills than Shapiro, must be someone butthurt he's getting fleeced
@@jeremyrangel8138
You should never retire, work till you die
Joe Biden is too old to continue his career
Rip
@@jeremyrangel8138Well, for one, Shapiro is making a completely illogical argument here. I don’t know if you are familiar with valid argumentation or not, but he is saying:
1: In the past, people used to work until they died, basically.
2: Today, people live much longer.
(Assumption: We should reproduce the past)
Conclusion: People should work until they die today, much longer than in the past, since they live longer.
The first two premises are true. They are descriptive statements. But Shapiro sneaks in an unjustified assumption, and his conclusion doesn’t follow at all from his two premises. The assumption is dogmatic, irrational. There is no reason to reproduce the past, unless the past was good. Clearly working until you drop dead is not what most people call good. Shapiro is relying on his own feelings, here.
I think he knows this, which is why he brings up a second argument, which is that work brings purpose to life, which is why people die soon after they stop working (according to him, this is dumb, because the reason people might die soon after retirement might be because they retired BECAUSE they got sicker and weaker. Even if he is right, his reasoning is invalid because he conflates correlation and causation). Since people want to live long, purposeful lives, they should work until they drop dead and not retire, according to him.
Here, again, shapiro relies on unjustified assumptions and invalid premises. For most people, work is NOT their purpose of living, and it’s impossible for the majority of people to find such work. Almost all people endure their job to support their ACTUAL prefered life, which is usually something non-monitizable, like friendship, love, creativity, reflecting, helping others. Most workers feel alienated at work because they don’t control their workplace in ways that feel meaningful to them. You can’t get away from that being a unavoidable product of our economic system.
So, again, Shapiro sneaks in dishonest and unjustified assumptions that again render his argument completely illogical.
This is extremely typical among conservatives, who neccecarily rely on past ideals dogmatically being correct and desirable, because every critical examination of the idealized past would by definition make them leftists (because that is what the left actually IS). That is why conservatives are notorious for being allergic to empirics and critical thinking. Shapiro himself brags about ignoring everything in his education. Anti-acamedia and anti-intellectualism. Jordan Peterson does something slightly similar. He starts out with some true, or at least plausible descriptive statemement, then makes an unjustified assumption, and then makes his aduience assume the conclusion, and then can never be accountable for actually stating the conclusion of his own arguments. They are slippery and decietful snakes, and it’s extremely obvious to anyone remotely familiar with argumentation, rhetoric and the topics they speak on…
If shapiro was even remotely honest, he would admit to all of these flaws in his argument, and justify his assumptions. He doesn’t. He is a conservative. Conservatives resists every measure that furthers workers wellbeing. They resist basic rights, living wages, taxes -. Historically, they have done nothing but hurt the average person, and they are ALWAYS on the wrong side of history. Because they think rich people should stay as rich as possible at the cost of the poor, because the «strong» inherently deserve more than the «lessers» according to some imagined holy order that humans should never ever mess with, as that would «unleash chaos and degeneracy». He DOES NOT CARE ABOUT THE AVERAGE PERSON.
my grandma quite literally worked herself to death in 2019.
she was 74 and still working as a school teacher, she said she felt like she had a cold one day so she called out of work, she was found dead in her bed of a heart attack later that day.
god i miss her.
According to Ben, if she had just toughed out the cold, the sheer will to work would have kept her alive.
RIP to your Grandma!
Sorry for your loss
I'll say it, if Ben Shapiro's parents can't retire at 68 because they would immediately die from losing all purpose in their lives, that's a skill issue.
Maybe it's because they actually have something to offer the world, unlike yourself?
@@jeremyrangel8138And you know this because?
@@jeremyrangel8138 Careful with than big nose of yours, Jeremiah Iscariot.
@@jeremyrangel8138grow up
It literally IS a skill issue. Just have ONE single interest outside of working for money, and you’re good.
Ben saying people die because working is the only thing that gives people purpose is the most damning insight to the inner workings of his mind since the time he slipped that he can't satisfy his wife
That and the late-capitalism brain worms.
@@desdenova1That's in far-right religious ideology too. You are supposed to find purpose in work.
Conservative are so boring.
"Work sets you free"
@@HopefulTomorrow420 Exactly. Ben is incapable of shame it would seem.
I don't care what some multi-millionaire pundit thinks. The SECOND I'm eligible to retire I'm out. I'll stamp envelopes part time or something if I have to.
Bold to assume you’ll be able to retire.
Bold of you to assume such jobs won’t be taken by ai.
Get a job at the post office lickin stamps, and moonlight at a party supply store blowin balloons. I'd be lickin and blowin and blowin and lickin.
the gulag of the future awaits you
@@leftisthindranceNot necessarily AI but technology in general but yeah that is a concern, we will have an increasing amount of even young citizens that need a means of income and increasing abundance of resources to spread amongst the people. There is really no choice in doing this when AI decides that our billionaires are the easiest people to replace. They serve no practical purpose than to eat up resources that others can use. We won't stop advancement, the best we can do is try to make the best of it. People need to find a way to pass the time so human creativity will go through the roof, aided by AI that allows them the ability to shape anything they wish basically. That could be us if we wanted it to be. We'll be exploring other solar systems without even leaving our homes maybe. We just need to get used to something different and that's all we need to do. We can fight it and lose everything or we can embrace it and possibly gain everything else from it.
My current retirement plan is dying in an apocalyptic climate event.
Everything is going as planned then.
Well the left has been keeping that grift going for 50 years, so you might be a bit disappointed.

My grandfather died in his mid 90s, not 5 years after his retirement. He also did habitat for humanity into his 80s, if you stay active physically and mentally you tend to live longer, you don't need a job for that.
Benny Shabribri doesn’t want that. He wants you to die working while being so isolated in your heavily overpriced apartment you treat everyone as a threat and thus don’t take part in community works or activities.
ROFL. These Starbucks-socialists have to get treatment for anxiety if you ask them to work 40 hours a week for themselves, you REALLY think they're going to donate their time to build houses for other people? Good luck with that, lol.
Cons don't understand what it means to actually provide value to your community, or live a fulfilling life. All they understand is running machines to keep the gravy train rolling for the 1%. And then when you burn out and die, someone takes your place. We're all disposable in their eyes.
@@thelouster5815Not just that, he wants you to die working a job he personally finds beneficial and worthy, not something he views as useless, like something that doesn't benefit him and rich people.
Being 65 is a medical issue. Bodies wear out broham.
Just work on living hundreds of years like those dudes in the OT.
*skill issue

He doesn't care
@@JoshuaReed-fy7hb Dude's gonna get filtered by a birthday cake like a Fromsoft boss.
He clearly doesn't know anyone who does any kind of physically demanding work, which speaks to the privileged bubble he lives in. You don't see 70-year-old electricians climbing telephone polls.... Or factory workers doing repetitive motions for years on end.
My uncle worked as a framing carpenter (and off-roaded dirt bikes) until 80, but yeah, there were guys I worked with whose bodies were basically done before 50.
I've worked in care part time for uni, which is physically taxing. Everyone of my colleagues past 50 had some sort of issue with chronic pain or damage to their joints, because of work. Making any of them work past 65 would frankly be cruel.
Oh he knows, he just doesnt care about them. He is just a pure sociopath.
I am young and recently I started working and it's strange while it's very physically demanding it's also a least for me better than mentally tasking work because I end less tired than when I was at school still over time work takes a tax on your health, that's is why retirement exists
“You should have to work unless you have a medical condition!”
Oh, you mean like ALL ELDERLY PEOPLE???
Yet you support an 80 year old President.
If everyone dies in 5 years after retirement, then there's a mountain of cash that we'll never even touch in SS. Pick a thing Ben
It’s called “The Cult of Work.” I see a lot of it in the military. People who get suckered into the mentality of “work hard and die in your boots” wind up becoming extremists, because they see successful people making a decent living wage without destroying their body, or mind, and they don’t like it.
My father is a Union manager, and he’s always looking to hire homeless veterans. Unfortunately everyone in the military who I work with see Unions as communist, and/or lazy.
(You don’t even want to know how many times I’ve been called a Bolshevik.)
“work hard and die in your boots”
Is that a religious thing? Cause to me that sentiment makes absolutely no sense. Like, what's the point? What's the motivation? What's the drive?
@@OneEyeShadow Suffering is my guess.
Which is ironic, given that the US military is arguably the most "socialist" American institution with free job training, free food (in the mess hall), free medical care, free housing, guaranteed employment with numerous opportunities for advancement and career specialization if you behave yourself as well as a solid pension if you stay in long enough.
Not only that but the military academies like West Point and the USNA are considered the most prestigious post-secondary institutions in the country yet their tuition is free along with room and board and there's a guaranteed job waiting for you after you graduate. Not only that but no cadet has to work a job while going to school at the same time.
@@OneEyeShadow it’s probably some form of toxic masculinity where if you work hard to the point you die, you’re manly or something stupid like that
@@renaisnisbettmore specifically: wanting people that are seen as below you to suffer more than you are. It's all they want. They want others to suffer more than them so they feel better about their own suffering. It's a vicious cycle.
Conservatives stop being evil challenge (difficulty: inconceivable)
INCONCEIVABLE
Well, yeah. To be not evil they would have to stop being conservative.
To quote what Sam Seder had to say on this: "Keep pushing cutting social security."
Incredible strategy for a propagandist of a party whose core voter base are older people.
They count on theor voters being either too senile to understand, or alzheimer.
Most of their base will be dead when push comes to shove anyway.
Sam also pointed out that the retirement age is, in fact, being raised.
Well they will just blame the Immigrants. Or the Jews. Or Gay People. Or Trans people. Or whatever minoritys left alive after 200 Purges and society STILL somehow being horrible.
Of course the millionaire who's "work" is ranting at a camera about how everything new scares him, wants everyone to work until their bones grind to dust.
ROFL none of you people have jobs that require even a modicum of strenous labor - stop kidding yourselves.

"No one needs to retire at 65"...How anyone could still listen to Ben Shapiro after saying something that stupid is beyond comprehension. 🤦🏿♂️
Ummmm because the statement is true? Aside from maybe being an astronaut or an athlete, you could do any job well past 65.
@@jeremyrangel8138 Being able to do something is different from wanting to. Theoretically, a person can do nothing but pick up litter from birth to death for minimum wage. Is that a dignified existence though? Can the same not be said about the vast majority of jobs? Hell, even dream jobs can wear people out and become monotonous. Don't be a cretin. This conversation is about existentialism--the right to have an existence adherent to your own will, not someone else's.
@@jeremyrangel8138 as a fit and healthy teen, I permanently damaged my foot from just doing a part time cashier job because I wasn't allowed to sit down at all durring my shifts and had to stand there for hours on hard tile floors. So any foot injury, no matter how minor was suddenly never able to heal if I wanted to keep my job.
So I ain't gonna be providing defence for these so called "easy jobs" because an easy job without Healthcare and without time off for injuries is just as likely to injure you as any other job.

@@LeCharles07 we pay into our own 401ks. That money goes onto one big account for reinvestment. Other people get their payouts while I'm paying in, then I get mine back at the end.

I doubt that Shapiro knows his way around a kitchen. He would probably accidentally set the stove on fire, burn the kitchen down, then blame YOU for it!😂🤣😆
@melissawickersham9912 hopefully he knows soap and sponge

"Oh, you work a crab fishing boat in Alaska? What do you mean, you don't want to be doing this work at 80?"
Well, then, shit-for-brains, perhaps you should have either a) put aside enough money to retire or b) positioned yourself to stop doing that kind of work by the time you're 80?
It's cute that Ben thinks talking for a living is an actual job 😂
Lol for real. He might be employed, but he absolutely does not do work
If people are willing to pay you for it, and it's legal, it's a job. Vaush does the same thing Ben does.
I'm fine with people talking for a living, it's been a time-honored tradition for philosophers (not including Ben in this description.) Though to be clear, this is Ben's fallback after failing at screenwriting.
Nah I’m gonna say it, Ben probably works really hard. All those mental gymnastics and coming up with content yada yada. Like even just a regular person, knowing all of this and having this many opinions is a lot of work! Being informed is work. But benny boy takes an amazing leap forward and uses the extra effort required to do ALL OF THAT and remain this fucking stupid. All while publicly doing it! Say what you want but he makes himself miserable working this job. 😂

sorry mr shapio its time to stargaze up at grass now
Wtf is with Republicans that they think pushing others to live a certain way is favorable to freedom or even just quality of life?
Retirement will be forced on ben at 65, just like he had to get gay married when that was legalized
He says that people who retire die because they lose their job and therefore their purpose in life. My dad is 72, retired, and far busier and more active now than he ever was when he had a job.
Yeah, the statement is demonstrably false. Ben Shapiro is an asshat.
Yeah, what he's saying absolutely happens to some people. People who tie their life's importance to the job they do, and can't figure out what to do without that work. But that's also the exact life he wants people to have. Never retire and keep working, that job is your life, according to Ben.
Ben "sits on a chair and talks to a camera all day please work until you can't walk anymore" Shapiro
_"Work 'till you drop"_ *- Anti-establishment conservatives. For the people.*
His voice cracks on several occasions. I think even he realizes he's testing dangerous waters with his listeners...
No he's just 14
Conservative try to not say something psychotic challange (impossible).
Also, when he gets 65 what if we show him this clip
He'll have enough money to retire on his own terms, which is the entire point of what he's saying. Vaush is just selectively clipping it to make it sound ridiculous. Ben is just saying you shouldn't rely on the government for retirement, that you should save money and be smart, so you can retire on your own terms.
GenX retiremeent is 67. Anyone born from 1960 onward retire at 67, A lot of people I know are waiting till age 70. My Mom was and she is silent gen. She was diagnosed with cancer at 66 and forced to retire at 67.
IF you retire before your retirement age, tbey reduce what you get. If you want to 70 you get 124%. So a lot of people are going for that. How many of them die before that happens?
@theywouldnthavetocensormei9231 he isn't selectively clipping it, he is watching it live.
Also, not everyone can save up a ton of money for all of the expensive stuff you need when you are old. You see the poverty rate for old people drop significantly on the graph shown in the video.
Also, Ben litteraly says "if you stop working you die immidiately". This applies equally to people who retire on their own terms. It doesn't make sense to say this if that was his point
Also, why should we not subsidise a comfortable living for our fellow citizens who helped our country? Why not incentives people to work and contribute in order to live a comfortable life?
Shapiro was born rich, so he has no empathy for regular people.
@@theywouldnthavetocensormei9231 "selectively clipping"
You mean...pressing the play button, and then pressing pause every now and then to respond? That's not clipping, that's just watching a video. Ben's making himself sound ridiculous.
Says working is your purpose but also the purpose of life is to start a family so like which is it ben
the purpose of life is to start a family and then never have to spend a day with them since you're always working, clearly
Per Bernie Sanders, the solution to solving the SSI and Medicare funding is to abolish the Payroll Tax cap. Both programs will then be solvent in perpetuity, and benefit levels can be increased for retirees.
Somebody boost this.

Considering his family is well off, hasn't he been able to retire since he was born?
Addendum: I like to think that the retirees Ben has known haven't actually died, but have ghosted him so hard he just thinks they're dead.
My mom is retiring this year 2 weeks after her 65th birthday, as she SHOULD
My dad is stacking paper WFH at 67 and doesn't want to retire because he's making so much bank for sitting on forums and playing Candy Crush. I shit you not.
@SenorPenor1337 hell yeah good for him. Sadly my mom's not really in a good spot, she hasn't been given a raise since 2010, all of her coworkers are paid more despite her having an irreplaceable job and shes treated like shit. She's kind of in a position where she can't keep working there anymore

Im a railroad engineer and noone working railroad construction makes it to German retiring age (62-68 depending on year of birth) because the body cant handle 40+ years of bending/melting/grinding steel.
Imagine being a 75 year old construction worker . Maybe some jobs you can work when you are old but some people have physically demanding jobs and they dont know how to do anything else . Even 65 is too old for that . Companies rarely even hire new untrained people past a certain age
I've worked with senior citizen construction workers. It is kinda sad to see
I just love when people that never worked a single day in their entire lives tell us what to do...
Ok so the youths aren't watching BennyBoy and he's now alienating the working class so just who exactly is still watching him??? 🤣
The whole point of people like Ben Shapiro is to trick working class and even middle class people into voting against their own interests by creating fake outrage over social and cultural issues. Ben said the quiet part out loud
Sadly there are working class people who are so lost in the sauce they'll eat up anything Ben and his ilk say even if it's against their own interests. I have a coworker who thinks we get paid more than we deserve and has unironically said he would die for the company.

The greatest victory of neoliberalism has been to make people think that things must be the way that they are, and that change is impossible. So many problems have obvious solutions like decomodification or nationalisation but people think that's insane and impossible.
And they donate to political parties who push right wing social policies to get in then sneak in right wing economic policies WHICH NOBODY WANTS. At least in Europe almost every party is waaaaay too far to the right economically and it's getting worse

My great grandfather lived until 94. He never stopped taking long walks, working on his land, going to family gatherings, going to church events until reaching that age. He had a shockingly rapid decline once he did finally slow down and was dead within a month or two. Old people need purpose and activities, not necessarily work but something to live for.
Shapiro is such a melt. I sometimes rewatch that video of him pooping his pants when that trans woman warned him to stop misgendering her 😂
I don't want to work until I'm dead in a cubicle, that just sounds like a nightmare. I can't wait to retire so i can actual do what I want.
Ben is welcome to come on out to eastern Washington and pick a bin of pears if he thinks it’s no big deal as work.
It’s OUR MONEY that we’ve all PAID INTO! The government is supposed to invest it and make sure we have enough to live off of, they need to invest better, expand social security and make those paying over 140,000$ or more a year pay into it more! Social security isn’t even enough to pay rent now!!!
I want to see Ben in 40 years doing a job like Roofer
I want to see Ben 'today' doing a job requiring physical labour. Doubt he'd last a week...
There are some personality types that prefer to work until they die. My grandmother who passed at 93 had this attitude. My dad who turns 85 next month also has this. The difference is that people can *choose* to do that. They shouldn't be forced into it.

He just talks and has shown he can do that until the heat death of the universe.
"Work will set you free" Ben Shapiro

Ben Shapiro: Everyone should work until they keel over. Nobody should be allowed to retire unless they have a physical illness preventing them from working.

Oh the moment my body starts to betray me I'm leaving this Earth. No will in the universe can force me to create wealth for others as an elderly man.
It’s just so important for people who are retired to have something to do, even just a hobby. One of My grandfather gardens. He’s really into it, his entire relatively small backyard is a garden that occasionally produces food that he either uses or gives to us. He even donates blood pretty frequently. The balance a lot of retired people have to walk is that they should both keep active and enjoy their extra leisure time. The old people who live to 90 or above all have hobbies and do active community related stuff.
I wanna be one of those old lady trail guides at a national park

that's not a jewish thing. it's a mediterranean thing. it has always been the common thing to keep the elderly close. and it's wild that that is not the norm in other places
The Mediterranean lifestyle is the best in the world. Unfortunately for some of us, Brexit has made it much harder to live there.

0:40 - It's not just that he looks terrible, he looks like he's dying his eyebrows and hair.
“Unless you have a medical issue” you mean like having maybe 8 years of good mobility and health left before truly deteriorating? Wow, decades of work for a sliver of enjoyment, what a gift.
That PBD episode was so frustrating.
Pat: "You can't judge something based on how popular it is"
Pat later in the episode: "America is the best country on earth because everyone wants to come here!"
The only people who deserve to retire are people who contribute essential goods and services to society, like podcast hosts and landlords.

Yeah Ben, you're so right. People should work in the mines until they die of black lung.
Jokes aside this guy is weird af. Dude is a pinball machine. He acts like he's advocating for the poor working man yet attacks things like retirement and social security.
America has a crapton of old people. Social security eligibility should be at 45 and their should be some restrictions. If some dude or family is making 350k to 600k more a year than your average worker then they should be taxed so that more so that money can be used to aid more people who are gonna need that social security.
What was the percentage of eldery in America being given a God's gift to not be poor as dirt when it was implemented?
My dad was medically retired when he was 59 (he was a carpenter).
He is currently 85 years old and very much still enjoying his retirement.
There is a huge issue with retirees being able to develop hobbies and interests. My own mother has stated that if we stick to the current bare minimum budget and she doesn't get sick, she can still only afford to live until she is 80. She worked at the same company for close to 50 years, and still, her social security is not enough to live on, let alone travel or splurge. She is in constant fear of getting sick and blowing through her retirement savings too quickly. It's awful.
take all of bens money and put it towards social security
Ben-you will work forever and like it
I saw a chatter say "Play D&D until you die"
Right on. I'm in my 40's and I'm still running games. I'm just an even better DM now.
So “people are living 30 years after their retirement” and “you’ll die 5 years into retirement” are both positions he holds
bababooey
My dad is retired 16 years now, he's a champion budgerigar breeder, he couldn't do that if he was still toiling away.
I would love to see Ben Shapiro work in an Amazon warehouse until age 65 and then see how he feels about the retirement age.
i used to work at an retirement community serving meals, and one of my coworkers literally lived in the community (we worked at an apartment-style building that offered more assistance, while she had her own house, all within the same gated community) she literally just enjoyed working and wanted to have something to do. work is great when its on your own terms

This is what you focus on?
Imagine if we forced ben to work manual labor like they did in Germany.
Imagine using literally anything other than antisemitism against one of the least likable people on the planet.
I can't imagine the contempt one would have to have for humanity to believe in the nonsense Ben Shapiro types spew.
My grandpa still writes scientific papers even after retiring.
