All of the tech platforms banned Trump and D-platform parlor, the media bathe for conservative heads,

0:04.9

and House Democrats push forward toward a second impeachment. I'm Ben Shapiro. This is The Ben Shapiro Show.

0:14.6

The Ben Shapiro Show is sponsored by ExpressVPN for peace of mind. Whenever you go online,

0:19.3

visit expressivPN.com slash Ben. All right. So I just

0:22.9

want to begin today with something that I never do. But I'm going to do it now. Okay, I really don't do this because it's self-serving and it seems silly. But I'm just going to say right now, I want you to go subscribe over at dailywire.com. To this show, it's what we do at daily wire. the reason I'm saying this is because we are quickly reaching crisis point in terms of the attempt

0:39.2

to bar conservatives from virtually every platform. That is what

0:43.1

we are watching in real time happen. On the back of the awful and evil incident at the Capitol

0:48.2

last week, the entire tech infrastructure is now mobilizing in order to take conservative outlets off the air, in order to ensure that conservative websites no longer appear. Here's the thing. They may not be doing it right this second, but they have now set the predicate that they can do it whenever they want. And what they are doing right now is that the tech bros have declared war on conservatives. It's going to be a slow-moving war. They're going to start with people who are outliers. They're going to start with people who are considered more radical. But they have basically decided that if they at any point have the opportunity to take you out, they will take you out. So I can't guarantee how long Apple Podcast is going to be distributing things like Daily Wire Podcast. I can't guarantee how long Amazon Web Services is going to allow websites like DailyWire to be up. You need to go directly to the source. You need to go to DailyWire.com right now and you need to subscribe because it may be over the course of the next couple years, it may be the only way you actually get the content that you want. The way that Facebook is moving, the way that Twitter is moving, the way that all of these outlets are moving, all of these supposed platforms, they are now no longer really platforms, they are now publishers, basically based on what they are doing. The way that all of these outlets are moving, they're moving more and more toward the deplatforming, dismissal, the creation of an echo chamber just for the left.

2:01.7

That is what is happening right now. We are watching the purge. Okay, and it's not just on the tech

2:06.8

level. It is also happening at the corporate level. It's already happened in Hollywood. It is

2:10.8

happening in the schools. It is happening nearly everywhere. We are dividing formally into two

2:15.2

Americas. Those Americas are not divided by state. They're not really divided

2:18.4

by race. Those Americas are divided by politics. There will be a group of corporations that only

2:23.4

services the left. There will be a group of online mechanisms that are only allowed to actually

2:30.2

platform the left. And the right's going to have to build its own outside mechanisms.

2:35.7

I've been warning about this for quite a while. It's amazing because the same people right now

2:39.5

who are calling for deplatforming, the same people who are calling for corporations not to do

2:43.2

business with people who are conservative, the same people who are attempting to boot people

2:47.9

from platforms that were supposed to be places for open discussion and debate,

2:54.6

those same people complain that the right lives in an echo chamber. Well, one of the reasons that the right has increasingly lived in an echo chamber is because the left has forced everybody

2:58.3

outside the Overton window. The left continues to shrink the Overton window so that it encompasses

3:02.7

only them and only their friends. Everyone else will be canceled. Everyone else will lose
