I was actually hoping to see how his kooky internet fans would defend this: Hey, free speech is all that matters! We are morally obligated to listen to people defending pedophilia ALL THE TIME and if you don't want to you're A BABY

I've already seen people marveling about how homophobic liberals are for being happy about this.

Milo being a nazi makes me sad. :(

Does it make you sad that you show up in comments sections of random articles to defend a white nationalist nazi and hope people will argue back about it?

No, in both those cases "nazi" is being used to mean "white nationalist," so it's actually pretty coherent.

His voice is impossible to dismantle, because he's a very good troll: he's doesn't give a shit, which means he's already won against anyone who does.

Dude believes horrible things; "nazi" is close enough shorthand.

I love this semantics-obsessed persona people put up when someone like Milo is the topic. "Ohh you see, that is not precisely the right hateful word to describe his specific kind of hateful beliefs! Better luck next time, friend!" [nerdy laugh; pushes glasses up nose]

No, it still makes you better than Milo and his fans. I looked up once what you'd have to condone to be no better than Milo and his fans, and let's just say it involves rubbing alcohol.

No you don't, because they'll just make up violence that never happened, if they have to.

Not only correct, but correct in such a way that you're a GODDAMNED HERO OF FREE SPEECH if you defend it!

Oh, they'll do that anyway; it's what they do.

I think the best explanation for Milo is that he thrives in an entirely online world where gotchas rule. "You care about racism? Well I guess that means you care about race so YOU'RE THE REAL RACIST ooooo"

A libertarian douchebag refused to attack a libertarian douchebag? I'm not exactly falling over in shock, here.

No one's getting demolished in a presidential race in the foreseeable future, any election these days is going to be close; party affiliation drives almost everything. The democrats could nominate the Kamala who's an enormous cannibal from Uganda, and he'd get over 40% of the vote.

Kamala Harris seems pretty galvanizing, but holy shit could the US do it?

You know, I read that Hillary Clinton is going to run again in 2020!! Which means that either the DNC will never learn its lesson, or that latent sexism will make Sanders supports believe completely stupid things. One or the other.

If the man with an R next to his name says Russia is okay, then Russia is probably okay; who cares, what are you doing about abortion? And which is more threatening to these people: A president who's been divorced, or a president who HAS A VAGINA?

Ah yes, that classic psychological trick "Asserting repeatedly that no one cares about something anymore causes them to not care about it anymore!" That's one of those 5-dimensional chess moves that the Dilbert guy pointed out to me.

The hardcore Trumpists are a small and loud minority. Most of his voters were basically just mainstream Republicans who hated Clinton and wanted abortion to be illegal and really don't care very much about politics. These are not the type to double-down on him when he starts being crazy.
