Weekly Update on the Daily Wire (Explicit)

from Don't Try This At Home by Ellipses in Time

/

about

While I dream of having an opportunity to engage with Ben in a moderated public debate, this song will have to do for now. I’ve wanted to make a series out of this idea for some time, and will gladly make more as time allows.

lyrics

Keeping up to date on nuanced global politics
I skip the headlines until I make my analysis
My addiction to data and fixation would be wasted
Unless corroborated and then well communicated
I know that I'm a sadist as I watch the talking faces
To analyze the fashion that they used to stir reaction
Engagement favors rage the algorithm then rewards
And revenue means more than keeping everyone informed
At least to whores like you at the daily fucking wire

Fuck Ben Shapiro, and the way he feels a need
To present fallacious logic to the masses and the feed
Fuck Ben Shapiro, I don’t know where to begin
My refutations of the narrative he shares with conviction

I first began to worry when I saw your name recurring
When scrolling through the traffic meant to sway my demographic
Despite my apprehension about giving you attention
I implore that you refrain from sharing your opinions
I just get so tired of the daily fucking wire

Fuck Ben Shapiro, and the way that he decrees
Challenges to status quo as violent acts of greed
Fuck Ben Shapiro, for being a judicious prick
Claiming white male victimhood with faulty rhetoric

Appeal to the stone & moving the goalpost
Your logical fallacies go on for days, Ben
Begging the question & making conjectures
That others argue in bad faith
Rhetorically agile but intellectually fragile
Quite acrobatic at making word salads
An infinite regress of approximate data
Makes this sound now in my brain
(sounds of mental anguish and expressed outrage)

If vulgarity offends you I suggest you just relax
And if you find yourself offended know that feelings are not facts
I look forward to the next installment of this song
If you could spare a moment I hope we can sing along

Fuck Ben Shapiro, Fuck Ben Shapiro…
(Repeat until cathartic)
