Please note that this website is currently a work in progress! Lots of interesting data and statistics to come.
I mentioned this in the other thread that got removed because it linked to the livestream and not the actual video, but I think this really shows the problem with Milo's message, if we take him seriously.
He says that he's fighting for freedom of speech, but when the panel calls him out on his BS and he calls them morons and acts like a victim. It really seems like he isn't campaigning for freedom of speech, but for the freedom from the consequences of what you say. He wants to be able to be an asshole with impunity. He wants to be able to say anything he likes without other people being able to exercise their freedom of speech to call him out on his bullshit.
Milo is a great troll. Transgender people are disproportionately involved in sex crimes. That's a great way to make people think that transgender people are the perpetrators instead of being the victims of sex assaults. And Larry Wilmore fell for his trap and now Milo can continue playing the victim of mean MSM.
Celebrity culture has led to this. The rise of the narcissist. People who will say and do almost anything so long as they are being given attention.
Donald Trump is the absolute pinnacle of it. And he attracts people like Yiannopoulos. Both, to different levels of damage to society, can be easily manipulated or empowered by people that give them attention.
I think the most telling thing about this clip is the notable Republican politician refusing to participate in the discussion because he knows that if he pushes back against Milo in any way then his base will abandon him
I put Milo in the same category as Westboro Baptist Church: be a fucking tool baiting the opposition with your chin out just hoping someone takes a shot so you can cry foul.
Milo is the archetypal attention whore.
Basically what I expected. No debate and a whole lot of misinformation and name calling. Maher basically sat their and tried to act cool without controlling the situation.
Oh wow what a total shock. Everyone who said we shouldn't give Milo a platform was vindicated as he calls everyone a stupid idiot and whines about how everyone attacks him.
That's the fucking problem with a debate, it only works when both sides respect the concept of a debate.
I'm annoyed I know who this person is.
