    Milo used to be a convenient edge case, but clearly, he’s outlived his usefulness. Because that’s all he ever was. Useful.

      His autobiography is [en]titled `DANGEROUS` so...

      (I read it... it's on my bottom shelf labeled "don't waste your time reading..." I keep it for comic relief/perspective).

      ----

      A very good homosexual friend (in college, decades ago) espoused similar controversial philosophies (as Milo's, on homosexuality and "mentoring"), from both perspectives:

      I still don't have a final conclusion on my college friend, but Milo is certainly a dangerous edge case...

    First they came for the Communists

    And I did not speak out

    Because I was not a Communist

    Then they came for the Socialists

    And I did not speak out

    Because I was not a Socialist

    Then they came for the trade unionists

    And I did not speak out

    Because I was not a trade unionist

    Then they came for the Jews

    And I did not speak out

    Because I was not a Jew

    Then they came for me

    And there was no one left

    To speak out for me

    A warning to the Repugnants. They will reap what they sow.

    wow!, I got half way through and could actualy feel my eyebrows going up a notch with each sentense and bailed before I ran out of forehead, which I have to admit was a good reminder that no matter how inured I sometimes think I am to wierdness and depravity, along comes someone who can move the bar, good thing he is an attention seeker because someone with those proclivities and was also sneeky cunning devious would be a real problem, even so there will be a lot of bad scenes that this guy has been part of

    Search for "Milo" on HN and you find a big 2019 thread about his ejection from Facebook:

    Out of the almost 700 comments, many defend Milo and deem unacceptable he doesn't have access to one platform.

    Just watch them say nothing now that he has completely lost all of his freedom, thrown in a cell by masked paramilitaries, after being sicced by Lara Loomer - whose only authority is being a presidential cheerleader.

    To those here simping for Trump: he doesn't care about you, the same way he doesn't care about Milo nor Charlie Kirk.
