9:01Now PlayingLOL: Ben Shapiro Says 'Even Martians Would Oppose Gay Marriage'
Ben Shapiro Bizarrely Suggests Martians Would Oppose Same-Sex Marriage
Conservative podcaster Ben Shapiro found a pretty spacey way to alienate supporters of same-sex marriage Wednesday: He suggested that Martians would be against it.
During a discussion on “The Ben Shapiro Show” with fellow Daily Wire writer Matt Walsh, Shapiro lamented the “societal rule that the only rationale that you would possibly have for saying that a marriage is between a man and a woman is because [of] ... sincere religious belief” rather than any secular arguments related to reproduction.
Somehow, this inspired Shapiro to imply that if Martians came to Earth, they might also have a problem with happy LGBTQ couples getting hitched.
“You could be a visitor from Mars, and you could see that all of human procreation relies on man, woman, child,” Shapiro said — without, it should be noted, reaching out to actual Martians for their opinions.
