Nick Shirley Explains Why Critics Won't Be Able to Take Him Down: 'I'm a Virgin, I Don't Have Sex'

Last edited Thu Jan 1, 2026, 02:34 PM - Edit history (2)

Viral YouTuber Nick Shirley explained on Wednesday why critics would struggle to take him down following his investigation into alleged child care fraud in Minnesota — boasting, “I don’t drink alcohol, I don’t do drugs, I’m a virgin. I don’t have sex with random girls.”

Responding on the PBD Podcast to what he called “crazy allegations” that have been made against him since the release of his viral video documenting alleged child care fraud in Minnesota, Shirley bragged to host Patrick Bet-David:

What sucks for them is they’re never gonna be able to get me. I don’t drink alcohol, I don’t do drugs, I’m a virgin. I don’t have sex with random girls. You’re not gonna catch me on those sexual allegation charges. I don’t have any addictions, I don’t have any vices. So what are these people gonna get me for. They’re done. I’m religious, I believe in God. I’m everything they hate, so what are they going to get me for? They can’t get me for anything. Like, they’re gonna come after me for my personality or for a stunt I did in high school maybe? That’s maybe the best thing they could get me for, is for Nick Shirley being a young, reckless teenager, just like any other YouTube prankster. Go ahead, I don’t care. Like, I have nothing to hide.

He concluded, “I literally have nothing to hide, so like I am going to become their worst enemy, and you’re going to start seeing them using the slandering tactics and it’s just going to be comical because they can’t get anything on me.”

Oh my...

5. Thou shalt not lie

"Thou shalt not lie" is a core moral principle, stemming from the Ninth Commandment (Exodus 20:16), which specifically forbids bearing false witness (lying in court or against your neighbor) but is understood as a broader call for absolute truthfulness, condemning deception, half-truths, and harmful gossip because God values truth and honesty above all, with severe penalties for false testimony in the Old Testament.

Slander and libel are both crimes, even if you're a first-time offender. Lying to hurt a business is still illegal whether or not you've ever had any other 'vices'. We don't need any past acts to get him on this crime. He did it. End of story.

And I believe trying to get into a facility with children that is secured for very good reasons is attempted trespass, also illegal. Can you imagine the trouble the daycare would have been in if they'd permitted just anybody to walk in off the street? There could have been kidnaps, there could have been shooting. There could have been a repeat of Annunciation or any other horror story out of the news. He had no right to be there, let alone come inside. To have a right, he'd have had to get police with a warrant involved. Hmm, I wonder why he didn't. Oh, yeah - he knew damn well there was nothing going on.

Get him. Get him, get him, get him.

You're a massive asshole and that you are willing to make false accusations about people to stir up shit so you'll be find out pretty soon that there is something about you, you lie and you do it about people who have done nothing more than exist in order to bring harm to them. So, dream on fuckface, you'll get what you're after and it will probably surprise the shit out of you.

Marge demands Homer find a man for her older sister, Selma, a twin to Patty.

Homer: Wait, I thought she, you know, didn't like to be touched.

Marge: No. Patty is the one who chose a life a celibacy, Selma simply had it thrust upon her.

This idiot is a "Selma", though, it is always possible he is a "Patty" (Simpsons' fans will know what I talking about.)

This is a perfect example of why there is no arguing with conservatives of today.
This individual asserts that there is no way to discredit his BS because he doesn't have unrelated vices. He fails to acknowledge that the appropriate way of arguing against his accusations is to dismantle them directly.
For conservatives it has all been about character assassination even as we've witnessed the rise of an entirely nefarious and unqualified leader as well as a wide cadre of sycophants of dubious repute.
This poor child thinks that because he eschews the things that his party used to revile as hedonistic he's immune from criticism or substantive argument.
Such is the difficulty that Democrats and the larger left has encountered with this new breed of Visigothian conservative. Conventional rules of engagement, standard factual debate...these things no longer serve as viable tactics. Truth is no longer of any value. BELIEF is above all and they'll never believe anything we say ever again.
This is one reason, perhaps, that Democrats are hesitant to advocate for Trunip's removal. Political martyrdom could re-galvanize the base and prove tricky as we execute the plan to retake the government and restore the country.

Old one about virginity

Virhinity is like a balloon. One prick and its all over.

Benny Hill joke.

Judge asks:
• How do you plead?
• Innocent.
• How old are you?
• 25
• You're not innocent.
