#1 I'm not a fan of Milo, but he fell on his sword to protect the Trump agenda. Kudos to him.

#2 I think the angry left gay mafia took him down because they couldn't stand to see a Republican openly gay man being politically active.

Much like SCLC, the NAACP, and the left tried to an continue to try to take down Clarence Thomas because he had the nerve to be a black republican.

#3 All of a sudden the left cares what people do and say? Inconceivable!

#4 This also gives cover and legitimacy to the Deep State's SA that currently occupies our college campuses.

#5 You know, I never quite knew what defined the so-called 'Alt-Right'. But this and a couple of the other posts have given the subject much more clarity. They are people that are willing to defend their own, even if he's a pervert child molester, and blame it on anybody who they perceive to dislike President Trump. Got it.

#6 Now you crossed the line, DepotGuy. Sarah Hoyt is not alt-right. You, on the other hand --- as anybody willing to go over your posts since the elections, are are another neverTrumper.

#7 Sorry. I never read anything he wrote. I'm always leery of people who always turn every conversation to sex, especially perverted sex. It's just too tedious. I didn't like the riots at Berkeley. I thought the rioters should have been arrested and the Berkeley admins should have been sacked for their spinelessness. I think Milo has every right to say what he wants. But I wouldn't have gone to see him myself. Sorry if Milo was a victim. Maybe he can start his own web site. I won't visit it but he has every right to do so. I just don't care.

#8 The Left was OK with gays, perverts and child molesters as long as they toed the correct political line. This has all the hallmarks of yet another well-orchestrated Outrage du Jour. It is becoming tiresome.

#9 If this was from 2016, it would support SteveS' theory.

If you think what Milo said is immoral, tune into MTV.

And Milo's behavior is not an outlier in a few circles, not much of an outlier in some large circles.

#10 Sarah Hoyt is not alt-Right.

Hey,sorry, as I said I don't entirely understand the definition. But just so we're clear. Was it offensive that I misidentified Ms.Hoyt as Alt-Right?
Or was it more offensive that I pointed out the Alt-Right defends perverts?
As far as the calling me a NeverTrumper - not so. It's just that I loathe organized propaganda from any direction.

#11 Was it offensive that I misidentified Ms.Hoyt as Alt-Right?

Damn straight it is - you should read her post. In fact you should read her books.

Re "NeverTrump" sorry, I just felt like showing how easy it's to throw labels around.

It's just that I loathe organized propaganda from any direction.

I loath gravitation, and aging, and a million other things. Them are the breaks.

#12 Best thing about this story is its drawn George Takai and Bill Maher into the same trap.

#13 Absolutely correct, rjschwarz. Salon and other sites very busy right now cleansing their posts.

I've twice posted the link in threads here to Mr. Takei laughing about having been molested by his camp counsellor when he was 13, though he hadn't previously contemplated the idea of being gay; I shan't add a third. But Bill Maher?

#15 Let's not forget Lena Dunham bragging about how neat it was to sexually assault her sister.

Oh, and the name of her show, Girls, is not a reference to children.

#17 DepotGuy,
ALT-RIGHT, as defined by the left, are white nationalist nazi's. Milo tried to claim to be leader of the group but I don't think he was ever successful.

CTRL-LEFT, is a wonderful term I ran across yesterday to describe the far left.

It's just that I loathe organized propaganda from any direction.

And yet you seem to have fallen for it so effortlessly.
