Here is his rant about a movie. Besides race baiting what was his point?

I've never watched Black Panther, but to me it sounds like he is ranting against race baiting.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

I agree that to you it sounds that way.  :)

I don't think we've met, have we?
When I read that post I figured he was talking about you
LOL. Exactly who came to mind for me as well.

At least we all think you’re a sweetheart IRL :)

I'm on record here as no fan of BS, but this is trash. Before he gets started he says Ben never engages in self reflection or admits to getting things wrong, which is wrong in about 100 ways. BS has multiple lengthy columns detailing things he got wrong or is sorry for writing, and speaks about what he got wrong on his show and Twitter.

Then he takes takes clips out of context to make Ben say things he didn't. And I haven't even gotten started yet with his actual takedown. Should I bother?

TL;DW

I would honestly want to watch this, but he lost me after saying a bunch of rubbish in the first few minutes. I'll listen to tantalizing brain food for an hour, but not a bunch of cheap out-of-context nitpicking of some of a brilliant person's weakest lines and portraying them as his greatest mantras.

Just one example of something that turned me off in the first minutes (so that I'm not guilty of arguing empty claims), he said he'll debate Ben but not in front of cameras. Why not? His given reason doesn't make any sense. If ideas are superior, why does the camera make it any less worthy?

Start at 8:00, BS gets destroyed and then takes his bat and ball and leaves.  :)

Did you listen to the reason why? He wants an honest debate and not a show for the cameras.
Sort of like debating on DDF instead of an honest debate in person.  ;)

Why can't you have an honest debate in front of cameras?

Because BS is a showman. He can't help himself.

If you have real ideas, you can present them to a showman. Only someone who is not confident about the validity of their ideas will shy away from the cameras.

It is the people watching that get sucked in by the showmanship.

A debate is a fight rather then a discussion. And even more on camera, as they tend to be more about egos then about having a proper discussions.

But bs has plenty of none debatee ( if that is a word) discussions with people on camera.
