Is Offensive Political Violence Ever Justified?

Pies are often delicious, and are wasted on awful people.

I'm presenting it as a more effective alternative to punching Nazis in the face.

I suspect we might instead be tempted to crack down rather firmly on them.

what? no, i'm referring to your ridiculous notion about the KKK was following around a speaker and rioting everywhere the speaker went.

the KKK is openly genocidal. the rioters against milo are not. of course the reactions would be totally different, and for a damn good reason. your attempt at comparing the two is absurd and invalid.

Was nice to see 2/3 of Bill Mauers panel tell Milo to fuck off.

I agree that Milo really is confused and downright hateful about who he is. While 98% of what Milo says is nothing more than shock value, I had more respect for him than the former GOP senator next to Bill who was so fucking slimy.

I feel like if you pressured Milo enough he would admit to being wrong about something, or tell the truth.

That former senator wouldn't even deny the mass voter fraud claims of Trump.

But back to the original point, Milo can go fuck off.

Milo is on tape advocating for pederasty. He is going to be speaking at CPAC. The conservative movement at this point has no principles other than "fuck liberals"

[corianderstem]

I have a lot of things I'd like to say about this asshole, but I've decided not to give him any attention.

So ....

Who? Never heard of him.

They dropped him. He has serious mental issues. While I am for free speech, and allowing people to make fools of themselves, he apparently has found the line to cross with these clips.

It's kind of a shame because he does come off as very well spoken, meaning he can put together sentences. They are full of shit and vile, but a shame that someone who does appear to have a functioning brain decides to go full mental just to get attention.

Maybe he'll get the therapy he so desperately needs and use his position for good.

[corianderstem]

That person I've never heard of had his book deal cancelled.

Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy.





I mean, never heard of him. Who??

[cobl04]

He's lost his book deal as well.

It actually infuriates me that THIS is the line. Not his blatant homophobia, not his target harassment campaigns, not his other bigotry, it's a clumsy phrasing on a video podcast.

Says everything about the state of the world at the moment that outright, unhidden, unreserved bigotry is completely fine - and in fact, defendable - but this is the point where he finally starts getting repercussions for the shit he spews. It's super satisfying to see a huge cunt get his comeuppance but it sucks that it wasn't for the actual bad shit he did.

[DaveC]

instant karma's gonna get you.

good fucking riddance. there may be a million more roaches behind the walls, but fuck me it feels good to see a big one get stomped on.

[anitram]

Thank God the conservatives in here decided to fight on behalf of this POS.

[PhilsFan]

Wait, how is it that we found out about his sympathetic views on pedophilia? I thought he was being denied his right to free speech!!!

[Hollow Island]

It's comforting that society has a baseline for terrible behaviour that we won't tolerate. All manner of bigotry is fine, but we draw the line a pedophilia. All is not lost! We can work with this, people.

All those motherfuckers getting riled about protesters at Milo events need to be marched out and apologize for being belligerently ignorant now that they've learned about his pedophilia, role in gamergate, and so on.

Is it relevant to you that, in the same live stream that is being shown, he says the current age of consent is "about right"?

Is it also relevant to you that he's publicly exposed three separate pedophiles, one who is now facing charges?

Is it relevant to you that it appears that Evan McMullin had a hand in starting this media lynching, based on videos that have millions of views from over a year ago? The religious right wingers try to spin a gay man as a pedophile -- novel.

This one's embarrassing

Things the media has taught us this month: Milo is a pedophile, and Pewdiepie is a neo-Nazi.

EDIT: quoting phils, but the you is general

Additionally, the constant focus on Milo "still having free speech!" is making me lose faith in the general public's abilities to process abstract concepts

He may have written more about pedophilia over the last few years than any other journalist I can think of off the dome, but fuck research when you have a soundbite

I'm sorry but what's this hissyfit about?

The left has always criticized this guy and can't stand him. This comment to me is pretty on par with his other bullshit, no more and no less really.

The right is now banning him from CPAC - shouldn't your beef/outrage be with them? Aren't they the ones "fucking research" in favour of soundbytes?

[trojanchick99]

I like this piece in the New Yorker. What is interesting is the knock down blow came from the right, and not the left. Milo and his ilk in the White Nationalist ridden "alt-right" are a threat to establishment conservatives. I'm honestly heartened to read the thoughts of some of those people as it gives me hope the GOP won't fall to the racist fringe.
