: It doesn't surprise me that Ben Shapiro included Ron Paul on his hit list of alt-right influencers, but I don't think the reasons for his inclusion or others are condemnable. It's worth pointing out that Ben himself was a guest on Red Ice TV with Henrik and Lana back in 2014, another show that was banned from YouTube in 2019 or 2020. Similarly, Ben has spoken with Ann Coulter on camera who he also included on his alt-right list. In this sense, the issue with Ben isn't so much his own agenda or his disagreements with other factions but his own hypocrisy; the Daily Wire itself has been labelled alt-right by the mainstream media on multiple occasions, usually with retractions, but it has happened. People find it objectionable that an outlet with a lot of funding and close ties to Fox News, etc. gets a "get-out-of-alt-right-free" card, while more grassroots activists are left out to dry.

:: Hi, I really appreciate that you did this, I wasn't expecting it at all. The Groyper Wars have been over for a long time. And after my essay was deleted by an admin ([[Essay:The Groyper Wars|here]] is where my essay used to be), I was ready to give it up. Didn't see myself ever coming back to this. And I set up this page several months ago, this is the first time anyone has responded.
:: You said you would react to my main essay "later," and it's been a few days. If you're still there, I'd love to debate this with you, but I want to wait until you've reacted to my actual essay until I react to your response. If you post your reaction to the essay, I'd be more than happy to have a discussion with you! --- [[User:BernieandTrumpFan|BernieandTrumpFan]] ([[User talk:BernieandTrumpFan|talk]]) 13:48, 5 May 2020 (EDT)
