Why do schools give people with zero academic merit any platform to begin with? What’s his name, not gonna spell it whatever, is not an expert in anything, a person of letters, a researcher, or a legitimate public figure of distinction. The administration should have just said no to start. Shkreli is a known public…

A lot of the far-right would say that NPR is extreme left-leaning talk radio. Which just goes to show that they enjoy a completely different reality than we do. You can’t argue about anything when the person you are arguing with disagrees on what actual reality is.

As an LA gay, I was especially surprised at the folks in my circles who emerged as Trump supporters.

Oh, for sure he knew, and intended harm. That doesn’t mean he’s directly responsible. Ugh, I really don’t want to get into legalese in any defense of the prick, but it’s not quite incitement, and those who actually made threats shouldn’t be granted any cover.

But... you’re defending totalitarianism. Every totalitarian thinks they are doing it for the right reasons.

Yes, clutch my pearls indeed. It seems we solely disagree on tactics so I kind of don’t get why you find the need to direct snark my way but I wish you luck. I take it you are protesting him in person on campus? I’d love to hear about that. Seriously, I’d genuinely like to hear a first person account of what these…

I know people will bring in cartoons explaining that free speech in the constitution only refers to the government repressing speech, but there is a concerning trend about speech being suppressed in universities. I despise this POS, but I’m worried about what we will have accomplished by shutting down his and his…

I don’t think ignoring him is a matter of privilege, but strategy. Due to the protest, he’s getting much more attention from mainstream outlets than would have happened if he’d just blabbered on to an audience of already-converted idiots. Protesting his speach just gives him ammunition, and harms core liberal ideals.

Not to mention that these right wing assholes are always droning on and on about the “First Amendment” but when there are protests (the very definition of exercising First Amendment rights) they complain about it.

Sure he should have been allowed, as long as normal procedures were followed. As said above, trying to restrict this kind of thing just lets it fester more, and validates their claims of victim hood and censorship. The best thing to do would be to let that smarmy sociopathic piece of shit twist in the wind talking to…

He doesn’t care about preaching to his choir. He grows his brand by stirring up controversy, by outraging the liberals, by being oppressed! If he was scoffed at and promptly ignored then he’d be free to say nasty things to other nasty little people but get a lot less traction absent any big conflict. I’m not at all…

Point of fact: Tomi Lahren was recently outed as a liberal during her college days, which proves that what you say is 100% correct. Being a liberal blowhard and shit disturber isn’t nearly as lucrative as being a right wing shit disturber.

What if people just ignored him? Let him wow the college republicans on campus with his rhetoric and then go home. He thrives on drama and outrage, otherwise his whole act suffers. He makes the news and racks up viral videos when he says awful things to and about liberals and protestors who come to his events so how…

A self-hating one at that. He advocates for “gays to go back in the closet” and that he’d be straight if he could help it, and he has said that “gay rights are detrimental to humanity”.

Nah, they don’t even care about boning. (milo’s gay) They just hate women because their misogyny and racism makes them feel powerful.

I gotta give these right wing/alt right/whatever they are called at the moment assholes credit, they’ve learned how to game the system. They ask to speak at a college campus. The college administration, concerned about being portrayed a bastions of the left in the right wing media which could affect enrollments agree…

Nope. He should never have been there in the first place and UC Davis has got to be out of their goddamn mind if they thought that would go down there without a fight. I’ll take left wing thug over outright bigot any day.

Milo loves being a pretend victim; this is his Christmas.
