[Next Task]

Well, it's a 90-second video.

Looks like TikTok/YouTube make him look as derpy as he really is. What an unflattering format for him. Pity he won't stick with it since he's addicted to Twitter.

 

[Something Awful]

lol, they gave the same "special recognition" to an actual reporter alongside Ben who got it for his tantrum on air:

"Special recognition" for "wrestling with his own work's impact (or lack of it)". lmfao. "It seems less people than ever take journalists seriously. We must give more awards to disingenuous morons to counteract this!"

Every weeknight for 19 years, up to 30 million Americans watched Walter Cronkite anchor the CBS Evening News. A poll named him “the most trusted man in America.” .. Today’s winners are heirs to that legacy.

What a joke. The most trusted media organization in the U.S. today is the fucking Weather Channel, thanks to "journalists" like Ben.

I hope Ben Collins seizes up and suffers fatal cranial injuries while thrashing around in a seizure like a retarded seizuretard.

This faggot's taking a really annoying victory lap about Tucker.

As if half the shit BC spews on air isn't demonstrably false.

Ben's mommy-domme helped him with his homework: Far-right laments Tucker Carlson’s ouster, and loss of their shot at the mainstream (archive)

It's mostly bitching about /pol/. I guess some groypers called Ben a soyboy on twitter.

Carlson’s relationship to fringe figures on the far right was, in some ways, symbiotic. Carlson would use his platform to attack institutions and individuals, unleashing a troll army drawn from the very ranks of the fringe right-wingers and 4Chan users that loved him — something we’ve personally experienced on several occasions.

 

[General Emílio Médici]

All things said Ben is something of a hard working guy you know. He needs to really put work in to be so consistently wrong, late, misinformed and stupid. You don't arrive at Ben's levels of stupid without trying.

Dumb fuck can't even spell 4chan.

Thanks Ben, without someone shining a light on irrelevant internet forums talking about minor TV show hosts being fired the powerful would keep getting away with destroying the ability of the lower classes to accumulate capital, deploying armed force against innocent people harming no one, empowering corporations with monopolies and other privileges, allowing a global elite to leech off the working class and constrain their liberties by force with applause from journalists, a constant panic by said elite's hanger-ons about "democracy" that they want to address by using the power of the state to silence dissent and limit people's choices, and other such things that totally are not important unlike someone on a forum lamenting that somebody who was employed for a long time at your employer getting fired again but by a company you really really really really hate because it ever so mildly steps out of line from your social classes singular "consensus" about the need for the lower classes to have violence deployed against them constantly.

"Bad times coming, anons."

I have never before put out the call to random.txt for aid, but hot damn.

 

[CervixHammer]

That's nice, Ben. Except your definition of "hate" is basically "weirdos I don't like".

Or on Twitter, but talking about why BlueSky is allegedly good:

"it feels equally lawless and organized"

Remember, Ben and all these faggots want platforms to have centralized jannies who respond in an instant to squash any wrongthink. The exact opposite of what he's praising here and something which when Elon proposed it (hadn't yet taken over Twitter) they all cried it would be the end of democracy and then humanity itself.

David Frum's beady little Skaven eyes fill me with blistering anger. That fucker's face oozes pure evil.

David Frum's beady little Skaven eyes fill me with blistering anger. That fucker's face oozes pure evil.

Even his name sounds like it came from some algorithmic Villain Name Generator.

He is worse than an infidel. He is--may Allah forgive me for this utterance--a neocon.

 

[CervixHammer]

Ben's getting his ego fluffed on BlueSky and is being a sassy queen on twitter. Fortunately for my neghole, I'm out of elevenlabs credits and don't have an invite code, otherwise calling him a homosexual in his own voice on the "good" site would provide approximately three to five minutes' worth of entertainment.

I like how he wrote all that allegorical shit rather than just say what's supposedly great about it.

edit: Ben confesses to another Ben:

He is worse than an infidel. He is--may Allah forgive me for this utterance--a neocon.

It gets worse, he's Canadian.

Twitter: quite possibly the only website where you can watch a professional journoid's mental health deteriorate in real time, for free.

(archive with bonus cameo by Amanda Moore, amateur journalist who went undercover as a hardcore Trump supporter, as reported by friend of the Farms Ali Breland. Also archived. Ask her out, Ben!)

On the positive side, he seems to be working on his verbal filler. Only 2 umms and 3 uhhs:

The default backdrop for MSNBC contributors is their personal library. Some of them have large rooms filled with books and natural light that make me very jealous. Some have the hoarder look where there are books piled on other books, where it's obvious that the selection has been growing over time until it's metastasized beyond the carrying capacity of the original bookshelf. Some of them have books they've written prominently displayed behind them, most have a lot of books other people have written.

There are exceptions to this, of course. Claire McCaskill is usually in her large and pretty kitchen with a cake on the counter behind her. Neal Katyal needs a woman's touch in his living room. Nick Confessore was working out of his bedroom for a while in a way that gave me ideas. The painting that Eugene Robinson sits in front of makes me want to up my art game. Frank Figliuzzi is a deep state glowie but I like the triptych behind him. John Heilemann always has a Wu-Tang sticker somewhere in the shot. Mike Schmidt was sitting in front of an empty bookshelf for a long time, like his wife put him on time out in the attic.

But a full bookshelf? There's no wrong way to do it. It's a testament to a life of learning.

John Waters, of all people, said, "If you go home with somebody, and they don't have books, don't fuck 'em!" Dan Savage, when a teenager asks how they can get laid, tells the kid to work out and read a book.

Even though Ben's mother is a professional librarian, apparently he doesn't have any books. If he has any art, which is a big if, it's probably all mass-produced shit he got at the mall.

Such an NPC. So unfuckable.

You'd think a guy who constantly puts his life in danger to read internet forums would be taking losing his Blue Check a little better instead of lashing out at others while continuing to be obsessed with a platform he says sucks.

 

[CervixHammer]

"Constantly fearing for their lives" over tweets?

And pointing out that twitter bluesky dorks like Ben behave like hall monitors is "school shooter energy".

(both tweets in the archive)

Some day, Ben is going to see the Navy SEAL copypasta and be unable to sleep for a week.
