A growing chorus of social media personalities and ordinary citizens has launched an urgent campaign urging conservative commentator Ben Shapiro to disavow his long-standing commitment to placing American interests second to those of Israel.
The sudden push comes as millions of Americans appear to have rediscovered the novel concept of wanting their own country to come first in foreign policy considerations.
Shapiro, who hosts one of the most popular conservative podcasts in the country and co-founded the Daily Wire media company, has spent years arguing that unwavering support for Israel represents the highest expression of American values.
Many now view that position as dangerously out of touch with the emerging consensus that America should probably prioritize America.
“This is about taking America back,” declared one prominent influencer who boasts hundreds of thousands of followers. “We simply cannot tolerate public figures who insist on ranking the United States anywhere below first place on their personal list.”
The controversy gained traction after clips resurfaced showing Shapiro repeatedly describing Israeli security concerns as more pressing than domestic American issues.
Viewers expressed particular outrage over statements in which he suggested that American taxpayers have a moral obligation to fund foreign military adventures while borders at home remain porous, grocery prices remain high, and infrastructure crumbles.
Another online commentator who recently reached one million subscribers weighed in forcefully.
“If Ben Shapiro truly loves freedom and Western civilization like he claims, maybe he could try putting the country he actually lives in ahead of one he doesn’t.”
Daily Wire executives have reportedly entered crisis mode as merchandise sales of “Facts Don’t Care About Your Feelings” apparel mysteriously plateau.
Staff members whispered that Shapiro spent an entire afternoon staring at a world map trying to locate where exactly America appears when Israel occupies the center.
As pressure continues to mount, observers note that the once-unthinkable has occurred: large numbers of conservative Americans have decided that maybe, just maybe, their country should come first.
Whether Shapiro can adapt to this revolutionary new way of thinking remains the question occupying Washington, Tel Aviv, and every group chat in between.
