He's trying to make contrarianism a career, isn't he?

it's worked so far

he probably thinks he can do a lot better than getting carted around in sedan chairs by shutin weirdos at colleges paying him a few thousand dollars per gig, and he's probably right about that because he's photogenic and has an established (if niche) media presence

guessing he also sees how america is reacting to trump and knows continued association with the alt-right is going to become a big liability pretty soon assuming we all don't die in nuclear hellfire or starve to death because of a trade war

I'm amazed that Americans are apparently fine with shutting down free speech for people with unsavoury views.

milo goes to universities and deliberately outs (against their will) students who are trans, or undocumented, or whatever

now he doesn't overtly instruct all the dudebros in his audience to go harass the students he outs, but oh boy let me tell you about this thing called subtext

getting him bestseller money from amazon is worth it if it gets universities to stop inviting him to their campuses and puts an end to his harassment campaign

besides he's just gonna put all that bestseller money up his nose anyway

It's weird because I feel like the tone of Warhammer was satirical for a really long time and that that was literally the joke (i.e. the Empire is a parody nightmare theocratic bureaucracy) but I guess they figured out who was buying their game and reading their dime store paperbacks

yeah all warhammer poo poo was originally satirical and ironic, that's why it's full of so much crazy skull nonsense, no one needs a whole desk drawer full of skulls but they got 'em in warhams 40k because that poo poo was funny

Considering the obsession with cuckoldy and traditional gender roles and all that I'm left wondering about which particular warped psychosexual impulse led to this idea.

this one is actually really boring as heck and sad, like almost everything in the alt-right, it started as a joke and was coopted by the crazy true believers

the joke is thus: "I am so racially pure I only drink white liquids"

you can add your own cum joke if you want but I think this one is actually not very freudian

What's the logic behind 'liberals/leftists are the real fascists', anyway?

Is it just bullshit like 'Nazis were actually left wing'?

it's a classic tactic based on the nazi strategy known as "legalism" designed to exploit the liberal* mindset

in the specific example of milo complaining about being told to gently caress off it goes something like: everyone has the right to free speech, so when a leftist shuts down my right to advocate for genocide, they're violating MY rights and that makes THEM the real fascist

this of course ignores that leftists protesting in response to a fascist speaker are themselves exercising their right to free speech and the fact that a non-government institution like a university, even a public university, is not required by law to allow anyone and everyone to speak on its property

it also relies on exploiting a misunderstanding of what "free speech" actually means, since most people casually interpret it to mean "you have to let everyone talk if they want to" rather than "the government can't sanction or censure certain types of speech"

*liberal as in "liberal democracy" not as in "neoliberal" or "democrat"

I recommend you try to engage with what your opponents are actually saying, rather than a ludicrous caricature. Milo is not advocating genocide, and you're undermining your own arguments every time you try to paint him as Literally Hitler.

The issue is shutting down opposing opinions through violence, which is what happened at Berkeley. They're wrong to call it fascist behaviour, of course, because fascism doesn't have a monopoly on political violence.

I recommend you worry about how your dipshit island nation is gonna run an economy off cookie exports after you quit europe instead of telling americans how to save the world from fascism since ya'll won't be able to rub two shillings together to fund any attempts to do so

This thread is ridiculous and SpaceGoku is making me take this idiot's side. Not one single post as evidence of Milo being a fascist, a white supremacist or anything of the like. Some internet famous douchebag out here trolling for dollars but for some reason, people just aren't getting hysterical enough about the eminent total victory of the fourth reich.


So what the gently caress does ranting like a lunatic about death camps and genocide look like to people? Which side does that make you more likely to take?

realpost though maybe you shouldn't choose your ideological allegiances based on someone's bad posts in the politics shitposting forum of dead-and-gay internet comedy forum somethingawful.com

go out and read some of the poo poo milo wrote of his own volition and see the arguments he himself is making, because yeah no poo poo they aren't "haha kill all non-whites" but they sure as poo poo are drat similar to actual beliefs that fascist regimes have held like how he wants the gays to get back into the closet under threat of violence and what not

and yeah maybe he's just "trolling" or whatever, but if you make the argument in the public sphere to the point that it is inciting harassment against real life actual human beings, maybe you shouldn't be able to claim to be "just trolling" anymore

okay realpost over

And come to think of it, the transphobia of the young/alt right is mostly a result of that theory of education

I think this is more the result of toxic masculinity resisting attempts to replace it as the dominant social force in common culture, and what we're seeing among the younger members of the alt-right (wrt transphobia/homophobia/misogyny etc) is the reaction when young males (esp white) come of age in a world that is simultaneously expectant that they are to behave in a certain mode of masculinity while also replacing that style of masculinity with a more egalitarian option (admittedly there's a lot of work to do on this, especially now)

alt-right intellectuals and media figures had a message that was especially effective at appealing to some of the generation of young men who are coming of age in this period of transition between one social paradigm and another

of course, the alt-right movement is such a complex and difficult to analyze movement that this is like, the most basic idiot bitch assessment anyone has ever come up with I'm sure, but you know

The idea that anyone, a public university administrator or anyone, can just unilaterally declare ideas they don't like to be "hate speech" and "fascism" and then proceed to censor or silence these ideas through violence, or even through bureaucratic means is unamerican and unconstitutional in every way. We don't arbitrarily ignore or invalidate the rights of racists, radicals, rabble-rousers or anyone else. You should go find yourselves a country with a vangaurd party if you want to live like that.

it isn't unconstitutional or unamerican at all

no one owes you or anyone else a platform, not even a public university

the only thing the first amendment guarantees you with regards to your ability to speak is that the government won't forbid you the right to speak on the grounds of content, and even then that has specific limitations and restrictions

yeah reading right-wing forums and on facebook, they like milo for trolling the left but i don't know how this is supposed to work, exactly. fact is, a lot of righties do not like him and tolerate him only insofar as he's useful

also my right-wing facebook friends thought his maher appearance was a disaster

yeah it seems like neither team liked the maher appearance

team blue hated it because it seemed like maher let milo walk all over him

team red hated it because milo seemed self-indulgent and he was the exact kind of effeminate gay dude they're uncomfortable with

actually I guess team frog liked it, he hit all the classic memes like "you're triggered" and "snowflake" and because he got told to gently caress off
