Today on "predictable things we all saw coming" it turns out that rabid homophobes will find a token gay speaker useful but won't actually go to bat for them either.

Milo at his highest aspirations as a gay, jungle fever, conservative provocateur is a snake charmer with a kazoo. No matter how hard he tried to avoid the right-wing poison, this was always going to be the result.

In some ways, I take this as vindication that, in the end, the right-wing will always betray what they view as the other no matter how far or how loud they let them play in their gilded cages. In other ways, it worries me because it validates a toxic world view.

I don't even give them that much credit. I imagine they knew, or at least someone did, about it and were forced to react after it was made public.

So, how long until the alt-right starts parroting the "gays are all pedophiles" line as a means of distancing themselves from him?

Now, now, don't be crazy. I don't know you're racial or sexual orientation or whatever, chillichimp, but let me tell you the secret of about how people in power treat groups of people they view as "the other." See, if "The Other" agrees with them and is useful, they are "one of the good ones" and treated like a tool and allowed to jump around in their gilded cage as much as they want, like a pet. When they over step the line, however, they are back to being "like the rest" and are immediately ostracized and mistreated. Ask me about how my republican friends were super accepting when I came out of the closet then became ultra-homophobic when I shared my liberal point of views.

In the fact that many of the Republican establishment hate him because he doesn't toe the line and rich people also hate him because he's a classless goon.

Chilichimp posted:Holy poo poo, it just occurred to me that this plays right into the Gay = Pedophile stereotype/narrative that the right wing parrots. In the few conversations I've had with conservatives about Milo we all seemed to agree that the reason he has any standing on the right is because he reinforces long held conservative beliefs about gay people like being self hating, victims of abuse, and being vulgar perverts. Like, I'm very confident that's the entire point.

Milo seems to have been a completely different person 4-5 years ago, here he is trying to do a 'think-piece' about the implications of people being mean online: (I probably saw it posted on SA recently) http://kernelmag.dailydot.com/yiannopoulos/3359/the-internet-is-turning-us-all-into-sociopaths/ quote:So perhaps what’s needed now is a bolder form of censure after all, because the internet is not a universal human right. If people cannot be trusted to treat one another with respect, dignity and consideration, perhaps they deserve to have their online freedoms curtailed. For sure, the best we could ever hope for is a smattering of unpopular show trials. But if the internet, ubiquitous as it now is, proves too dangerous in the hands of the psychologically fragile, perhaps access to it ought to be restricted. We ban drunks from driving because they’re a danger to others. Isn’t it time we did the same to trolls? Thats a pretty rapid change in personal identity there. Sometimes I'm wondering, wtf made this guy? Was he just trying routines out until one stuck?

literally the only thing he could do is a massive face turn and relentlessly attacking the alt-right and trump supporters ala david brock but he doesn't have skill or reputation post pedo interview to pull that off. most likely he'll preach to a dwindling hardcore audience of true believers and eke out a living on patreon or whatever

No he's just loving done. Only people OK with pedophilia will be caught associating with him. And those people need to all be put on a registry.

Crowder is claiming he is doing prank calls to progressive churches offering to house migrants but that is also illegal so he is either going to break the law or fake the calls.

"I think the true Christian thing to do is to harass churches that take in desperate and scared people at their own risk. This feels like what Jesus would do."

He could just say "I was abused and I wasn't dealing with it very well. What happened to me was wrong. I never have abused any boys; I was the sole victim here. Plus, the priest that molested me was a liberal."

This time last week Mili had a book deal, the keynote a CPAC, and a Bill Maher interview. Now his book got cancelled, he's been disinvited from CPAC, and he got his rear end kicked by Larry Wilmore on Maher. Put this man on suicide watch.

God demands a nationwide crusade against perverts and deviants, oh no unless it's me or my family or my friends or people who agree with me politically gee show some compassion and understanding folks these are complicated and personal situations don't be such rigid moralists. One of the major differences between progressives and Christian conservatives is the latter only want Jesus' message of forgiveness to apply to people like them.
