He uploaded this video under the title of “forestall displaying me commercials For Abigail Shapiro I don’t Care Please”. This video quickly gained public attention and earned 187,000 views and more than 600 remarks.
Gay Criticism
Abby often became the target of online social hate due to her relationship with her brother Ben Shapiro. As we all know, Ben Shapiro is a TV host and political commentator famous for his conservative reviews.
Ben Shapiro’s Sister, Abigail Shapiro, is not the only one targeted by the public due to his views. His maternal cousin, Milly Shapiro, a famous actress, faced criticism due to Ben’s political views.
The issue was raised In October 2017 when Ben openly shared his views about the LGBTQ community and called them sick and psychological dysfunction, further saying that “homosexual activity is a sin.”
Ben also claimed that they should not be allowed to raise children. He shared these views through his Twitter account after Supreme Court legalized marriage equality.
He wrote,
“Let’s just skip all the suspense: SCOTUS should just declare a Constitutional right to whatever the hell they feel like that day,” and “Same sex marriage will never affect you. By “you,” of course, we don’t mean your business, church, school, or raising of your children.”

Moreover, he also gave reviews about American Invasion in Afghanistan and said,
“One American soldier is worth far more than an Afghan civilian”
After these views, people rushed to Abigail’s YouTube account to protest against his ideas. Within days, her YouTube video comment section was filled with hateful feedback and rape threats.
One user wrote to her,
“I wanna Rape her, cut off her head, and send it to Ben”.
Another one wrote,
“Ben Shapiro Now Using His Sister’s Khazar Milkers to Bring All the Goys to the Yard.”
Because of these comments, Abigail suspended the “commenting privileges” on her YouTube channel. She also explained the reason for her actions and said,
“NOW THAT THEY KNOW WHO I’M, I’M GOING TO BE RESIDING WITH THESE SORTS OF ISSUES CEASELESSLY — FOLKS SENDING ME GROSS STUFF…MY NAME GOES TO BE LINKED WITH BEN’S — AT THIS LEVEL OR DOWN THE ROAD.”
False Breast Reduction Rumors
In the start of 2021, Shapiro post on her Instagram about her breast surgery, and she added the “#breasthealthawareness” hashtag underneath her post.
A few fans misunderstood this post, which led them to believe Shapiro was undergoing a breast reduction.
To clear the air, she wrote another post on her Instagram in which she clearly stated that there was a lump on her breast and that she was going through a procedure to remove this lump.
She said that it’s not anything critical, so do not worry! My nurses were excellent, and the doctor became top-notch. Everyone handled me by making me comfortable.
The procedure was so easy (except for the part wherein they positioned the IV in my hand – for a few purposes that became the provoking part). Seemingly it became such a smooth technique they were capable of getting it executed in ten mins! I was under anaesthesia, so I don’t forget that I am in no pain – even without medicinal drugs.
