[NEWS] Milo Yiannopoulos resigns from Breitbart

[Alteration]

im gonna elect to ignore the fact that you seem to be implying the age of consent is bad somehow

Well I guess you'll have to elect something cuz u couldn't elect a president XD

So instead of acknowledging all the "happenstance" surrounding this, you'll just throw it all to the side and label it weird.

If you're going to judge something political don't be that whiny stuck up brat that just labels it with a few things, and then essentially wipe your hands clean and go "welp job well done", how about you go in-depth and explain yourself and the reasoning as to why you believe that this isn't some coordinated smear campaign attempt to discredit his public figure to make sure he doesn't gain power in both money and politics, along with tainting Breitbart in the middle of it.

it is absolutely a smear campaign. i never said it wasn't. i just find it weird all of the people who are suddenly jumping to defend child enthusiasm

[IkeTheGeneric]

There's a fine line between "child enthusiasm isn't as bad as people are making it out to be" and "I don't think this guy's career should be ruined over drunken rambling"

[Nonnel]

that's not what tactical nuke was saying tho

Personally I am not defending any sort of creepphillic activities, or any sort of activities, but otherwise I also haven't seen many others jumping to defend it, time will tell.

I guess the biggest hangup here is going to be a huge argument over whether or not he was being serious. I thought it was pretty easy to tell he was joking about it, as humor is a pretty good coping method for traumatic things like statutory rape.

Of course because this is such a demonic topic to some folks and they feel so passionate, there's really nothing else to say here. Can't get a word in without being called a child enthusiasm apologist.

Well If anyone calls you an apologist in this situation then they're just uneducated and don't know how to formulate an actual argument against you.

[LeisureSuit912]

It's because almost no one can actually hold and argument against him, time and time again I've seen people challenge him and just end in failure, it's great.

Milo's fanbase is the definition of "dumb Americans who think British people are smart because of their accent."

Like, all it takes if for Milo to say "oy fockin chavs knicked me book deal" and his fans are like "WITNESS THIS MASTER OF LOGIC".

every one of leisuresuit912's posts is a part of the thousand words that the facebook angery react picture is worth

blockland forums is so right wing its hilarious

facepunch is so left wing its hilarious

both are silly places who defend their team unconditionally

not saying that you guys are in the wrong or not in the wrong about milo but people are gonna praise about how someone on the "enemy" team gets forgeted and will bitch when someone on their team gets forgeted, regardless of who is actually right or wrong.

imagine a world where democrats and republicans got along and tried to work for the better of the people despite their different views and are willing to work on compromises

but people will always respond to posts like mine about how what i'm saying "does nothing to help" and "its the (insert opposing political party here)'s fault that wont happen"

because the way to create change is to push away any and all change and just blame the opposing side

but fire away with your 3 books worth of "why the democrats are horrible people" while i simultaneously get shot with 3 books of "why the republicans are horrible people"
mostly citating dumbasses from the other side, who would've guessed that there were dumbasses! on both sides even!

[Poliwhirl]

the post i typed disappeared when my phone crashed i'll just kill myself i guess

Just a question, what problems exactly did you have with Milo Yiannopoulos?

"While Yiannopoulos is openly gay, he has stated that gay rights are detrimental to humanity, and that gay men should "get back in the closet".[98] He has described being gay as "aberrant" and "a lifestyle choice guaranteed to bring [gay people] pain and unhappiness"."
he openly associates himself with the alt-right
willingly states that he is anti-islam
somehow managed to get kicked off of twitter, a website that allows neo-national socialists, because he encouraged racial harassment against an actor
outed and harassed a transgender university student

short list because im still mad my phone crashed but i disagree with almost every point of discussion this man brings to the public

"
cool dude, show us where he encouraged child enthusiasm, because he never did.

"He flippantly said young boys "discover who they are" through such relationships, later implying that those relationships can be loveual in nature, and can "give them security and safety and provide them with love and a reliable rock where they can't speak to their parents.”"

I guess the biggest hangup here is going to be a huge argument over whether or not he was being serious. I thought it was pretty easy to tell he was joking about it, as humor is a pretty good coping method for traumatic things like statutory rape.

Of course because this is such a demonic topic to some folks and they feel so passionate, there's really nothing else to say here. Can't get a word in without being called a child enthusiasm apologist.

he's not known for keeping his mouth shut when it matters, but under no circumstances should you expect any employer to understand and show forgiveness when you say something like he did as a "joke". regardless of personal opinion, every action taken in response to his "joke" is justified.

He is right wing and in kimons mind; therefor the devil

have you ever considered contributing to a topic instead of creating the post equivalent of liquid diarrhea

[Master Matthew²]

Though in Milo's last moment, I disagreed with his response, this was a clear attack and victory for the left

the demon has been struck down

You fool, you god damn fool. You think that a demon has been struck down, but in reality, all that happened was another grew tighter with it's grasp. Now the media will do what they did to the terms "tribal, loveist, Bigot, national socialist" to the term "child enthusiast." This is only going to lead to everyone being labeled a child enthusiast.

But fine, have your 'Victory'. But you have only Cemented living proof the Mainstream Media will stop at nothing to be unopposed, and it is these actions which will unravel them and ultimately be their self destruction.

You can kick Annoying Orange out of office, you can discredit and destroy the lives of those you disagree with, you can watch the majority of the populous go and riot at any form of democracy that does not go their way, you can sit and smile as you smite down the "national socialists". But the only real national socialists taking over the world, are those who would seek this mindless revenge.

You're only as good as the actions you take, and you can easily become the very enemy you hate so much.

Know that these actions are not without consequence, and know that you are the person who sought this end.
