When Patton Oswalt lets loose on Twitter (let’s skip the loaded troll descriptor for now), he really digs in and this time he exposed previously unknown depths of reaching when he somehow elicited Breitbart editor Ben Shapiro to inexplicably whine about anti-semitism and generally lose his mind.
Behold the bewildering Breitbart level logic on display below:
My #GOPDebate summary: HELP US @SenSanders.

If this was your takeaway, you need help. But follow that star, @PattonOswalt, follow that star! https://t.co/wxvnQUZkIz

I will, Ben! Enjoy your never-was neo-conservative shitscape! Give my love to Irving Kristol's dumb ghost! https://t.co/8yal9FfAE9
— Patton Oswalt (@pattonoswalt) December 16, 2015
There's nothing I appreciate more than celebrities dropping anti-Semitic slurs! Thanks, @PattonOswalt! https://t.co/SyBWJ7264E
— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) December 16, 2015
Of COURSE that's your go-to! You gloriously predictable little sparrowfaet. Never stop, Ben… https://t.co/pSQl07pSTq
— Patton Oswalt (@pattonoswalt) December 16, 2015
Let me explain, you uber-rich pseudo-socialist buffoon. You attribute Kristol's philosophy to me because I am a Jew. https://t.co/1NmKCLmE2R
— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) December 16, 2015
And if being called "dumb" is "anti-semitic", you must experience epic levels of anti-semitism on a daily basis. https://t.co/pSQl07pSTq

Hey @benshapiro: you came at me guns blazing & now you're quiet. I'm not a transgendered reporter or anything scary like that. Let's chat!
— Patton Oswalt (@pattonoswalt) December 16, 2015
.@benshapiro No, dum-dum. Kristol is the father of neo-conservatism & helped popularize the term. That you're both Jewish is incidental.
— Patton Oswalt (@pattonoswalt) December 16, 2015
Given that Kristol and I don't share a philosophy, you have no other reason to connect us, dimwit. https://t.co/hhwHt2U2au
— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) December 16, 2015
Clever! Now, when do you plan to give up your millions for the sake of ending income inequality? https://t.co/hr9kjCk2OS
— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) December 16, 2015
Wow. You understand socialism as well as you understand anti-semitism, trans rights and, apparently, Twitter. https://t.co/WkhglrPITf
— Patton Oswalt (@pattonoswalt) December 16, 2015
I was wrong. It appears @PattonOswalt isn't smart enough to know he's using an anti-Semitic slur. He's just a typical Hollywood dumbass.
— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) December 16, 2015
If you call us both neocons without regard to our philosophies, you're either dumb or an anti-Semite. https://t.co/DiI1MhKjLA
— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) December 16, 2015
Then why are you wasting your top-shelf grey cells losing an argument to me? https://t.co/VL5DGLYhYL

Please explain socialism to me from atop your mountain of "Ratatouille" money. https://t.co/QDHIidbWxA

Aaaaaaand you don't know how residuals work. Or mountains. https://t.co/ebzljfZp1A

Please explain how women magically become men because they wish it to be so, super sciencey comedian. https://t.co/QDHIidbWxA
— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) December 16, 2015
Well, it involves "science", not "magic" for starters. Holy shit, dude. https://t.co/7sSVfaIWId
— Patton Oswalt (@pattonoswalt) December 16, 2015
Explain this new science you've discovered that changes chromosomal composition, Dr. @PattonOswalt! https://t.co/2OAtmKE3KM
— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) December 16, 2015
BREAKING: Miserable small uber-wealthy socialist comedian thinks science makes men women if they think they are. https://t.co/2OAtmKE3KM
— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) December 16, 2015
What is your net worth, @PattonOswalt, and what percentage of it do you give to those of lesser wealth? https://t.co/raXYN3Pjf9
— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) December 16, 2015
That would be 40% of Go Fuck Yourself, You Sniveling Creep? https://t.co/OPI4vE3VW3
— Patton Oswalt (@pattonoswalt) December 16, 2015
I am still waiting for your net worth and your charitable giving percentage. Fight income inequality, @PattonOswalt!
— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) December 16, 2015
What I learned from @benshapiro today:
(1) Life sucks when you're Ben Shapiro
(2) That's pretty much it https://t.co/Sqju4I0krR— Patton Oswalt (@pattonoswalt) December 16, 2015
What I learned from @PattonOswalt today:
(1) All Jews who aren't left are neocons;
(2) Socialism means being really rich and voting Sanders.— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) December 16, 2015
Oh honey, we're BOTH comedians. You just don't have any jokes. https://t.co/eOI6iuCr4u
— Patton Oswalt (@pattonoswalt) December 16, 2015
And there it is — the old "sorry I got myself into a political conversation, I'm just a funny man" gambit. Loser. https://t.co/bOdZrzZGnU
— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) December 16, 2015
I didn't get there as quickly as you got to "anti-Semite!!!" when someone disagreed with you. https://t.co/iPxq7xbQ1B
— Patton Oswalt (@pattonoswalt) December 16, 2015
This is what I get for engaging with a guy most famous for making shitty jokes about LOTR and voicing a rat that cooks. @PattonOswalt

I am still waiting for your net worth and your charitable giving percentage. Fight income inequality, @PattonOswalt!

For some reason, CNN conservative commentator Kurt Schlichter jumped into the mix:
.@benshapiro Send @pattonoswalt a couple harsh tweets about his silliness before he switches into "Gosh I'm just a comic" mode.
— Kurt Schlichter (@KurtSchlichter) December 16, 2015
But PO wants to be taken seriously, yet scampers back to being just a widdle old comic when engaged. @joleoweb @benshapiro @pattonoswalt
— Kurt Schlichter (@KurtSchlichter) December 16, 2015
Offer another pathetic manhood challenge and you'll get another Army guy response. @pattonoswalt @benshapiro
— Kurt Schlichter (@KurtSchlichter) December 16, 2015
@KurtSchlichter @benshapiro Never once challenged your manhood. Questioned your ideas & you went to, "Look how many push-ups I can do!"
— Patton Oswalt (@pattonoswalt) December 16, 2015
Actually, the conservative Twitter tears were running rampant:
what I learned from @pattonoswalt today: he can't follow an argument if his acting career depended on it w/ @benshapiro
— TedR (@thecoffeemonkey) December 16, 2015
@benshapiro dang Ben who is the nobody @pattonoswalt that you are making famous on twitter? He's one of those people from "off"
