Blinds.com for all the details. Alrighty, folks, so typically my producers torture me with woke TikToks and then force me to react to them, but it's America 250, and that means that they actually brought together some really nice, inspiring content from TikTok. I know it actually exists. We're going to go through it right now.

82.381 - 106.634 Unknown

A hill I will absolutely die on is the fact that I truly believe that the US is a lot more fun of a country than anywhere else. And I'm going to tell you exactly why. And the main reason is the fact that it's so huge. The fact that Texas is, I think, double the size of the UK is absolutely crazy to me. And that... It's crazy the fact that the U.S.

106.694 - 123.653 Unknown

is so big that there's just so much to do in all of these different states. You go to Texas, you've got the yeehaws down there like it's so much fun down south. Love it. Then you go to California. Let's get an iced latte at Erewhon and let's go by the river and swim together. There's just so much difference to do.

124.194 - 136.863 Unknown

Whereas if you come to England, you go to Liverpool, Manchester, Birmingham, London, it's all the same, babe. It's all boring as hell. What can you do? You can walk along the riverside and get a bit of chips and stuff.

137.325 - 157.15 Ben Shapiro

Yeah, so, I mean, it is true that America rocks. We just go to our national parks. Our national parks are ridiculous. God blessed America with the best landscape ever, ever. I mean, America is ideally placed. We're between two oceans, Canadians and Mexicans, and we control a gigantic land mass. Every state has something that is worth seeing. It is great.

Chapter 2: How do different states contribute to America's uniqueness?

182.238 - 200.15 Unknown

Oh, don't forget about the light bulb. How about the Internet? Vaccines? The steam engine? Air conditioning? Or how about the fact that we played a major role in stopping a genocidal dictator from taking over all of Europe and murdering millions of people? Yeah, we played a major part in that.

200.31 - 209.588 Unknown

And we're not talking about Japan, which had the idea of ideological hegemony, which is basically them saying they wanted the unity of the world under Japanese control. We stopped them as well.

0

209.568 - 226.23 Ben Shapiro

I mean, again, the list of things that America is responsible for is basically endless. America is the transformative empire of the modern era. There's no question about it. Why would you not be proud to be an American? Seriously, name a better country. Just do that. Like, what's a better country than America? Can you name one? You're lying if you say you can.

0

226.551 - 227.051 Unknown

You're lying.

0

228.393 - 229.435 Ben Shapiro

And you're a piece of shit.

229.535 - 238.177 Unknown

I got to ask you, what is your hope for America at a time such as this? My hope for America is the same as always been. And how do you personally deal with that?

238.719 - 246.561 Ben Shapiro

Yeah, look, I mean, my hope for America is what it's always been. I think it's the hope I hope we all share. We want it to continue to be the place where anyone from anywhere can achieve anything.

246.676 - 259.819 Ben Shapiro

where you're not limited by the circumstances of your birth, by the color of your skin, by your ethnicity, but frankly, it's a place where you are able to overcome challenges and achieve your full potential. I think that should be the goal of every country in the world, frankly. But I think in the U.S., we're not perfect.

260.18 - 273.992 Ben Shapiro

Our history is not one of perfection, but it's still better than anybody else's history. And ours is a story of perpetual improvement. Each generation has left the next generation of Americans freer, more prosperous, safer. And that is our goal as well. But it is a unique and exceptional country.

Chapter 3: What innovations has America contributed to the world?

576.903 - 602.134 Unknown

I'm a guy who come here with a hundred bucks on the pockets, couple t-shirts on the backpack, and I went every single step. to become American citizen, who I'm proud because I know how good is this place. I'm a guy who live in Europe, who live in South America, and everywhere I went, everybody wants to come and live in America. Everybody wanna be here.

602.114 - 620.713 Unknown

And then you who were born here, you who grew up here, you listen to these democratic leaders who tell you to be ashamed of this place, to not be proud of America. Let me tell you something. If any politician tells you that, he should be fired.

0

620.98 - 634.565 Ben Shapiro

accurate new immigrants to the United States who can appreciate how great this place is. They have a lot to say to Americans who are born into this thing. I mean, honestly, the greatest privilege in life is to be born into a solid family. And the second greatest privilege in life is to be born in America.

0

638.452 - 657.484 Unknown

In the proud spirit of America. And in the proud spirit of our great country. I just got three things to say. God bless our troops. God bless America. And gentlemen, start your engines!

0

674.677 - 690.205 Ben Shapiro

If you don't get chills from America, I don't know what you're doing. Seriously, America is so great. We do. We kick ass. I mean, seriously, this place is awesome. Well, there are some people who don't appreciate this country. And to them, I say, you should go away. Honestly, this country is great. And to all the people who do, well, you're getting it right.
