I don't think he's anything close to an actual Nazi. I think he's an outrage merchant. But he does pal around with some openly alt-right folks, and while most of them are probably in it more as middle finger to the PC status quo than due to white supremacist ideology, any complaints about the stigmas you pick up seem pretty pathetic when you associate with a crowd like that.

That said, Milo is at times effective at pointing out the plain absurdity of the fringe left, and I can appreciate that effort.
 
If you were a Nazi though, would you openly date a black person?

I'm not denying that he's a tit, but he's obviously not a Nazi. He wouldn't be openly dating black people if he was, if only because it would make him persona non grata to fellow Nazi's

On Joe Rogan's podcast, who @dholliday championed, he said some pretty homophobic stuff. Joe called him out on him being a hypocrite and/or a self-hating gay man.

On that same podcast he defended paedophilia as well, by the by. Which I think got him sacked from Breitbart.

Point is hypocrisy is a thing. Even in Nazi Germany.

Wouldn't rule it out based on just the fact that he's gay and/or has relations with black men.

He married said black man. On his wedding day his black partner wore a white suit with "blind for love" written on the back and not one photograph was published with his face. The photographer was told by Milo no shots of his partners face were to be taken just in case his identity leaked to the public.

Read into that what you will.

This sums up why many on the right like him and are happy to look past the stupid crazy sh** he represents and is or pretends to be.

Thing is he is British and part greek not even American. He doesn't even hold a passport nor does he hold a visa and yet the right love him because he antagonizes the left or tries too.
 
I know you were asking me, thats why I asked if you had read the article that detailed his links to nazis, white nationalists and whatnot.

Maybe he is a Nazi sympathizer then. May not be an actual Nazis but hanging out with them, speaking at their events and defending them all of the time smacks of someone who is a Nazis or Nazi sympathizer.

But remember this is about the post war Nazis as in the white supremacist types.

I read the article. He's outed as a rabble-rousing friend of the alt-right, as an ironic Nazi worshipper and as a political tool (in both senses of the word) against the Hillary Clinton campaign.

There's actual Nazis, then there's neo-nazis like Duke & Black and those tiny Nazi political parties, then there's Spencer & his crowd, then there's Milo & Bannon.

To be fair, on the strength of that Buzzfeed article I understand why some would shove Milo in the Nazi camp and be done with it. Maybe it's the German in me but professional trolls who dabble in Nazi mythology aren't Nazis. Those who are members of political groups who advocate Nazi-esque policies are.

Joe Rogan's great. His balance is a joy to behold, I aspire to be like that.

On your paedophilia claims, this is not true as you state it. Firstly, it was a different podcast, secondly: a sexual preference for post-pubescent boys/girls isn't paedophilia. It's ephebophilia (teenage post-pubescence) or borderline hebephilia (during pubescence). Paedophilia is the sexual preference for pre-pubescent children, it's the most abnormal, unnatural and rightly the most villified form of paraphilic sexual preference.

What Milo was talking about, and what he lost his book deal for and what all that fuss was about, was how some teenage boys may benefit from or seek sexual relations with older men. He wasn't defending paedophilia in any shape or form. The problem is mainstream media have shoved 'paedophilia' into meaning any kind of sexual preference involving under the age of consent. This is obviously stupid (age of consents around the world can be very different), but there you go.

I honestly would not be surprised if the gay man into black men thing is all an act. A pro troll is a pro troll...

He didn't just "dabble in Nazi mythology", he hung around and co-operated with white nationalists and Nazis. I am not sure that monetizing Nazism (or "being an ironic Nazi worshipper") means that you get a pass when people call you a Nazi.

That is not what he said.
 


eh? from your own link it's exactly what he said:
Pedophilia is not a sexual attraction to somebody who is 13 years old and sexually mature. Pedophilia is attraction to children who have not reached puberty, who do not have functioning sex organs yet, who have not gone through puberty.

In the gay world, some of the most important enriching, and incredibly life-affirming, important, shaping relationships are between younger boys and older men. They can be hugely positive experiences very often for those young boys.

Who cares? Being an American isn't a prerequisite to ridiculing the American left.

I'd love it you could reasonably debate these sky-screaming, safe space, check-your-privilege, anti free-speech nut jobs, but you can't. So, Milo it is.

I defo agree with that.

Nothing the guy does is genuine.

But i feel defending the right wing nuts is not a clever ploy because essentially to many he comes across as a confused racist

And there's the truth. All you want to do is have digs at the left and worship those who do also including trolls and racists.

Now enough of lumping all leftists in the same category. Clearly your distain for the left has you blinded to the fact there are many different views on the left. Even in this forum.

You realise many of us don't defend the alt left or the sellouts or dumb people on the left or the hippy tree hugger safe space types. I love how you guys on the right want to make it clear what variant of conservative you are and what group are designated to but all of us lefties are the same and in one category and in the off chance we sound different like Bernie Sanders we are then socialists or commies.

I for one hate the tree hugging apologist types on the left. You don't take anytime to understand that, instead you have preconceived notions and are happy to ignore the actual posts.

But sure you had made up your mind about all of us even before you came onto this forum. Buddy i saw your pro NRA, anti left posts and digs on that SEC forum you are part of.

You came on with a purpose and with every post you sound more like what most of us here believe you to be.

The more you post the less you sound like a libertarian.

Honestly i think many who say they are libertarian nowadays are pretending. That and those centrist types.
 
No idea if he is a Nazi or not, or if he's pretending to be, but Milo strikes me as an insecure whopper who simply monetized negative attention. Most of his views seem to have been crafted solely to annoy "lefties" or whatever, and it's hard to see the point of it after the first few Lols. One of those cases where I wish people were collectively smart enough to ignore him into obscurity.
