literally during a conversation with Neil deGrasse Tyson, Ben Shapiro brought up trans people because of course he did i mean he seems obsessed with them, and while Neil's take on everything was generally a verbal shrug of the shoulders, paraphrasing: "Trans people exist and we should work to understand and accept them and we shouldn't legislate to restrict people's rights especially based on fear and made up nonsense" and Ben Shapiro smiled and said "Well if people want rights they should beat me in a debate" I'm sure he'd say he was joking but I'll probably never forget it, like wow Ben tell us how you really feel

If Ben "DAP" Shapiro wants rights he should have to beat me in a cage match. If he's putting arbitrary limits on why people get rights then everyone else gets to do the same to him.

Nah, he should have to beat that trans MMA fighter in a cage match.
