A veteran criminal gang with 3 women and a 72 year old master counterfeiter? Can we get a show about them? They sound infinitely more interesting than the Kardashians.

On his way out of Washington D.C., Brotman stabbed two Secret Service agents sent by Trump to kill him; carved his legacy into the National Archives and made his way to serve his true president.

Pretty much. Everyone should brace themselves, this movie is going to win best picture at the Oscars. So, don’t get upset when it does. It’s like getting upset that water is wet.

You are not part of Hollywood. La La Land is a love letter to Hollywood. If there is one thing Hollywood loves, it’s love letters to them. They can’t get enough of them. It’s the perfect award bait.

There was no love for Zan though- that disappointed me severely.

Well if it walks like a duck, and talks like a duck.... Believe it or not, there are self-hating frauds in the world who care only about their self-interests. I’m sure there was even a slave or two who aided the Confederacy.

Rampant assholes are not discriminated against. That’s the difference, rampant asshole.

Because discrimination against sexual orientation is against the law in many places, but discrimination against someone for their racism, homophobia, sexism is fine.

Milo likes to think of himself as a writer, apparently. But it has come out that his self-published poetry book from 2007 was full of plagiarized Tori Amos lyrics. If that isn’t utterly pathetic, I don’t know what is.

The word ‘disgust’ will never fully express what this man engenders in my heart. I’ve tried to have empathy and even pity for him for all the reasons you eloquently expressed, but I can’t. He is foul. He is a dead limb that needs trimmed, as it’s poisoning the tree that nourishes it.

Don’t forget, he’s not just a white supremacist, he’s a gay man who goes out of his way to target women, under the guise of dehumanizing them for being trans, black, SJW, whatever. I think his issues with misogyny are front and center in whatever it is that broke him and turned him into this ugly garbage person.

People like this—that is, people who take advantage of a hard-won fight in society to be safe and happy in order to spread rage and hate—are still trying to get the bullies to love them.

Clearly you don’t, since you don’t understand the difference between “I don’t think this company should publish this book” and “I don’t think this person should be allowed to write this book.”

To mouth breathers who lack the prerequisite critical thinking skills to discern between someone’s freedom to write a book and the responsibility of main stream publishers to not legitimize hate speech with money and a prominent platform, sure I do sound like a nazi.

You’re trying to trot out the “paradox of tolerance”, but you are late to the game. It’s already been solved, amigo. Philosopher Karl Popper brought up this exact point in 1945:

En serio... can you imagine them publishing books written by right-wing Islamic extremist radicals calling for the creation of Khilafah (caliphate based on the Shariah) and opposing secular/Judeo-Christian Western governments? Nope.. I don’t see them giving these guys a platform.

“We have always published books by a wide range of authors with greatly varying, and frequently controversial opinions.”

Yeah, Milo is a giant racist shitbag.

I was just talking to someone who works at Simon & Schuster as a publicist and is not happy that they are doing this. I hate the whole “withhold judgment until they have had a chance to read the actual contents of the book.” We know what he is about! He has made himself very clear. It normalizes hate-speech. Yes yes
