Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
Thank you for having me. First of all, I just have to say that I've worked at this company at Daily Wire for three years. Before that, I was a fan of the show. So there's a full circle moment to be on here telling you about pop culture. There's a massive story going viral about an old mommy vlogger.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
And there's so many ethical implications that come from this story, which is why I wanted to talk to you and your audience about it, because it talks about exploiting children, but also the implications of what family vlogging can do to a family. And it's also important to point out the crazy juxtaposition that happened because this woman was famous and viral for being this beloved mommy vlogger.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
She was so happy, so great, painted such a perfect life until she got arrested for child abuse and has been convicted of child abuse and will remain in jail for 30 plus years. So the story got even wilder because the daughter now has come out and she's an advocate against family vlogging. So she speaks publicly about it all the time.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
And one of her quotes said, there is no such thing as a moral or ethical family vlogger.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
There's almost no way to do it. Yeah, well, Ruby is proof of that, unfortunately. So I want to show you some of these footage first before I get into this because it's crazy. And I just want you to react to this. So if we could roll the footage on this one.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
I don't know why, it's just... Okay, well, I'm going to tell your...
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
Just a clip. Again, there's a whole docuseries about this. But you see that she's just saying, you know, do it regardless if you're happy, fake it.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
Unfortunately, yes, there are many of those. The same kind of unethical and ways that you make money is exactly, obviously, what they're doing with OnlyFans and what women, unfortunately, are seeing, too. So they're seeing role models like the Ruby Frankies of the world, and then they're seeing the role models like Bonnie Blue, who is the woman.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
I'll specify because there are multiple now, but the one woman is Bonnie Blue. She slept with 1,000 men in 24 hours. That's her claim to fame.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
I know too much about the logistics. And I and I'm not going to share because.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
No, it's horrifying. But she has been flaunting a lot like her money. Obviously, she's making tons of money because this and a bunch of young girls are seeing that. Bonnie Blue, the infamous OnlyFans model, has recently made so much money that she has bought a $500,000 Ferrari, and she's posting about it on all of her social media.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
So I wanted to show you that because I think, again, there's more ethical and important questions to talk about regarding these women.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
Okay, so you just saw that, right? She's making tons of money, obviously. Someone commented something which I did want to share with you because, well, we all thought it was funny. She said, I wonder if she will let 1,000 random men take it for a spin or if it's too valuable to her to let that many people touch it. Thank you. That's just brutal.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
The other thing that I wanted to point out, though, specifically with Bonnie and why I wanted to show you anything about her, is that her mom is her manager.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
Isn't that so nice? That's beautiful. Watch this clip of her mom talking about her daughter's new profession.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
Even in the duration of that, further on in that clip, the mom talks about, well, you know, I get good holidays now. She was so proud to keep saying, well, you know, the holidays are nice and she's safe. She's saying the quiet part out loud that, oh, we have money now. And that justifies my daughter's soul.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
But the other thing that I want to note about these girls, unfortunately, is Lily Phillips announced just yesterday that she's going to old folks' home, specifically elderly care facilities, and meeting her men there, which is, here's a video from that.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
I think people are waking up because it's so absurd. They're finally realizing, hey, maybe we should have this conversation. Maybe these things are bad, which I'm absolutely very happy to say that there's also some more improvements in Hollywood. And I say it, I'm sort of celebrating crumbs here, but I'm gonna show it nonetheless because, you know, we gotta take the wins when we get them.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
White Lotus, the show that I know you're familiar with, There's a new season out and a new episode in which a Trump supporter is talked about in a good light. So I want to show you this scene because frankly, I've never seen a Trump supporter even really talked about in television, let alone not being exclusively made fun of. And yeah, watch this.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
Yeah, yeah. I'm wondering, though, if in the future her character will end up being... That would make sense, too. the worst person. I'm giving Hollywood too much credit. Maybe, we'll see. But the other thing I wanted to show you is from Disney's Pixar. They just released this show and they talk about Christianity for a bit, which again, never happens. And so I wanted to show you this as well.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
And so subtly. But as a Christian watching that, I didn't even realize that it had been 20 years. I watched Bridge to Terabithia and wouldn't have thought anything of it at the time. But thinking back that there literally hasn't been anything like that since is crazy to me.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
It was, exactly. But they removed that and added this in, which potentially is a sign of the times changing that they're catching on to.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
Do you think there's any world in which they could change course and you'd go back?
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
Yeah, more than just the crumbs of saying maybe one nice thing for people of faith to actually appreciate. But there was kind of, to end this segment about pop culture and obviously some negativity with it and the chaos of only fans and all that, there's a new study out about Christianity. leveling off and no longer being on decline in America.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
And I think that that's a sign of potentially the changing times about the perspective of faith and the importance of having faith in a household again, which I found shocking. The headline was from New York Times, and it was a Pew Research study, and they said, Christianity's decline in the U.S. appears to have halted major study shows.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
That one shocked me because what they pointed out in the article was over the last 20 years, ironically, the same time that we're talking about bridge of Terabithia to this, but it was going down and now it's stopped for a couple of years. It's not going any lower. So maybe that's changing.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
Yeah, Ben deserves some credit here. I mean, that's huge. And it's, again, young conservative males. Now, the other thing for Gen Z to give us a little bit of credit, because we don't typically get a lot of credit, you know, we're typically always the ones causing chaos. There's another article that I saw that said Gen Z is more pro-marriage than millennials and have less casual sex, which...
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
Yeah. So we're redeeming ourselves a little bit, except we still have the Bonnie Blues in our generation. But the study went on to say that in 2004, 78% of people commonly engaged in one night stands. In 2024, 23% did. So a huge shift.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
Also that, also that. But I just thought it was at least something hopeful to end on of maybe not everything is doom and gloom and the generations can kind of change course.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
You're more than welcome. Great to see you too.
The Ben Shapiro Show
Ep. 2153 - The Democratic Collapse CONTINUES!
Now, I know a lot because, again, I work here and have for three years. But I would say my favorite is still What is a Woman? That is the absolute. If you haven't watched it, you are missing out.
