Milo, desperate to get relevant again, calls for journalists to be 'gunned down' by vigilantes.

Observer

Milo Yiannopoulos has started issuing reporters threatening messages when asked to comment for stories.

“I can’t wait for the vigilante squads to start gunning journalists down on sight,” the right-wing nationalist told Observer over text message, in response to a longer feature in development about an Upper East Side restaurant he is said to frequent.

When asked to elaborate on who specifically had upset him, Yiannopoulos explained that the statement was his “standard response to a request for comment.”

Yiannopoulos also sent the message to The Daily Beast’s Will Sommer in an article examining the struggling U.K. Independence Party, which the conservative commentator is reportedly seeking to join as part of, what an Info Wars host describes as, a “soft coup” lead by nationalist figures.

Yiannopoulos posted a picture on Instagram of the veiled threat issued to Sommer, captioning it “where is the lie.”

Over the past 18 months, the provocative nationalist has seen his career implode following a Buzzfeed report linking his tenure at Breitbart to known white supremacists and neo-Nazis. After the piece’s publication, Yiannopoulos lost funding from the Mercer family, known in the political world as prominent pro-Trump megadonors, and subsequently elevated his racist rhetoric.

This past weekend, the nationalist bragged on Facebook and Instagram that he’d sent $14.88 to The New Yorker‘s former fact checker Talia Lavin. According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, “The number 1488 is a combination of digits popularly used by white supremacists and neo-Nazis—14 to represent the infamous “14 Words” (a mantra about securing “a future for white children”) and 88 to represent “Heil Hitler.”

Lavin is Jewish.

Has Milo been hanging with Ted Nugent (who not long ago, called all liberals and Democrats to be shot) recently? I found this from a tweet by, of course, the Reagan Battalion, the conservative group who helped oust his career. And boy do they ask a good question.

Why do people take this clown seriously? He's just a troll who gets off on the attention. Ignore him and he'll go away.

He is a self loathing, very confused man. I find his banter to be disgusting and I'm not sure why he even has a platform to share his opinion.

I say we deport him.

As with all rent-a-gobs like Katie Hopkins, Lauren Southern, Paul Joseph Watson etc, if they weren't creating controversy and getting their names out there in an effort to become more famous (infamous?), they might actually have to work for a living.

Unfortunately, quite a few still look up to the guy and defend him after the pedophilia controversy.

I would put him the category of gimmick alt-right trolls. His gimmick being that he's gay, but he's alt-right. This category also includes people like Blaire White (a transexual who is alt-right) or Jordan Peterson (a college professor who is alt-right). His 15 minutes of fame are up. He's promoting violence and he's not a US citizen so it seems like it's time to deport him.

Yep.

@bigfootpart2: Everyone is alt-right!

Correct.

This. I totally forgot about this dude. Thanks TC.

Maxine Waters' incitement may lead to armed counter strikes.

Remember https://ivn.us/2017/06/14/virginia-shooter-asked-republicans-democrats/

The gunman was a Democrat voter.

Anyone calling for violence is a disgrace.

This

Why does this even become a thread? no one takes this clown seriously, at least no-one on this board since both the right and the left knows that he is just a clown trying to earn money without entering an actual circus.

So just ask a mod to close it and let´s forget this clown even is a thing.

Like trump during his campaign..........

bump for relevancy to today's events

Did you hear what happened in Annapolis?

Feels like a solid 6 months went by and I didn't hear about this tool. Completely forgot he was a thing.

Now he's back, and I am upset I have to hear about him. Why do we even give people like this attention? Who wants to read about him? Yeah he called for violence against certain people, that's bad, but you don't need to TELL EVERYONE THAT by writing an article.

@nintendoboy16: And while it´s an insane coincidence the two things do not have anything to do with each other.

So nice try.

Also, you really think Milo could even get a dog to sit lol, no one pays attention to him except the few on this board and the ultra-far-left who use him as a propaganda tool.

word for the wise

I don't have to click on your source to know that its another case of fake news, you just hate anybody you disagree with to the point that you are willing to believe any terrible story about them don't you? did you also believe Trump raped children? or that Milo is a pedophile? lol I bet you also think Sargon of Akhad is a woman abuser as well, jesus these forums truly are libtard infested cancer fest, I'm done with the politics segment, I'll just come back in 2020 and watch you fools have a mental break down when Trump wins again, kind of like this guy:

Build the wall! Build the wall!

He wasn't that bad IMO when he first got his 15 minutes of fame, what the hell happened to him to go off the deep end?!?

Well between such comments and Trump constantly saying that news and therefor Journalists are the enemy, it's only a matter of time before someone decides to use firearms against them. If you keep claiming someone or something is the enemy then eventually some are bound to believe you.

Milo is awesome and anyone who thinks he goes to far needs to look at the disgusting things liberals/Democrats do/say.

Liberals are constantly wishing death on Trump supporters. God forbid someone says the exact same thing they say.

No. Those are are saying to close this thread or not to make him famous, you're all idiots.

It's a right wing fanatic - which you are a part of - who's making death threats to journalists because they report the truth about Trump.

Make him infamous and an example of why right wing extremism needs to be stomped out and why enablers such as Trump, his cronies, and his supporters - including you - should never be in a position of power, authority, or even taken seriously.

Trump called the media the enemy of the people. Trumpettes were wearing shirts that suggested hanging journalists. Milo just called for shooting journalists. Own up to it. You're just as guilty as the rest of them.

How come you don´t deal in facts? according to your side and the previous posts you always claim to be about the facts.

And the fact here is that this case has nothing to do with Trump or a nut job like Milo. This was a guy who was insane and had a personal beef with the newspaper, a newspaper he even sued over the articles they wrote about his harassment of a woman.

It is actually pretty pathetic and sad that you and your side highjack this case and abuse the deaths of 5 people who did nothing wrong to further your own sick agenda.

What's not factual? That Milo supports Trump? That Milo and right wing fanatics have called for threats against the media? That Trump himself declared the media the enemy of the people? Those are facts. 2+2=4, the sky is blue, and you can't accept factual information because it conflicts with the cult of trump.

You Trumpettes sure are easily offended. Make threats and make fun of people but as soon as you face the heat, you cry. Your response is a great example of typical right wing political correctness. Nothing got hijacked. Just calling it as I see it.

Who cares what some lame British clown thinks? and who cares if he supports Trump, he has no say in American politics not to mention no one in America besides this board and you, even cares about him.

But again nice highjack of this sad case, Trump and milo have nothing to do with why this insanity happened, so what about spending less time spreading lies and more time dealing with the facts.

And offended, nah i am not a leftist snowflake like you and your side.

I am creating a Super Hero who has immunity to attempts of insulting labels

what do you think of my idea?

Sometimes you need to howl with the wolves you are with.

But I do wish that it would be possible to have a civil discourse and not see these lame attempts at insults.

It´s like someone on twitter said, "we should all as Americans be together and not divided" If some people on the left want to get rid of Trump or the Republicans, use the means a democracy grants you and not turn to petty divisive insults.

All the left is doing is keep dividing the country which is funny when they claim to be on the moral high ground.

That's what they said about a failed painter, until he turned dictator, started a war, and started a genocide of massive proportions. Never underestimate fanaticism.

No one highjacked this thread lil' snowflake. You seem very offended for being called out for the fanatic you are.

Lol Milo is perfect example of how the left is so pathetically incapable of believing anyone who disagrees with them is anything other then a Nazi. The true Alt right hates him because hes gay and hes Jewish. And people still call him alt right lol!

So you agree with killing journalists and touching little boys?

@drunk_pi: Jesus Christ did you make it past the third grade? That's your reading comprehension? No i don't agree with it but that doesn't change the fact hes not a white nationalist not even close.

And here we go again.

Are you incapable of having a civil discourse without going to the extreme?

When even the Paper themselves do not put anything on Trump and does not even mention milo because they have no idea who he even is, do you believe them or do you just size any chance to throw up your anti-trump shit?

That dude is wacky.

The thing to do is to ignore them, dont throw a snowflake fit over them, and move on to the substance.

no excuses allowed, THAT is the higher ground, take it

You don't get to set the rules, snowflake.

If you can't reject the argument, there is no debate since you're clearly in the wrong. Again, what was extreme now wasn't extreme back then. And history will show that when the separation of families is deemed a sad chapter in our history and its supporters contrary to the very foundations of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness.

Except he has incited racism and prejudice. LINK

He's an apologist for white nationalism and authoritarianism, and it's funny to see people such as yourself defend him. But I don't expect much from snowflakes such as you anymore. Insult others but can't take a beating.

What rule?

And reject what argument? you have yet to make a single actual coherent valid argument.

What you have provided is a bunch of lame attacks and attempts to steer the debate into the extremes, because you cannot deal with the actual facts because they don´t suit your need for a certain narrative.

@drunk_pi: lol are you calling people snowflakes? Seriously you guys created safe spaces in public colleges, create groups that beg for money to push policies in the entertainment industry because you feel under represented. And you riot and protest the election of a president years after hes elected. Stop using the term that was given to your side and come up with something original. You guys are the biggest babies and the ole i know you are but what am i argument doesn't work well. Can't take a beating? You're right i wouldn't know because none of you are capable of delivering one. Your side is getting wrecked in just about every conceviable way.

So much you resort to calling a gay jewish man a white nationalist... lmao! That tells you how insane the radical left is... that a gay Jewish man would side with more points of actual white supremacist then the radical left.

so,....

so he is a gay jewish man who is a white nationalist or so he is just a white nationalist.

what does it matter? what does it mean?

does he think the white race is superior? yes he does

that is all that matters

I have. You're the one outright dismissing it without actually providing evidence to the contrary. You're suggesting that my argument isn't valid despite just whining like the snowflake that you are. You're outright defensive, suggesting that you don't have a rebuttal because you know that you're a faux patriot.

The Jews weren't outright sent to camps during the Nazi regime. It was through small actions (e.g. losing the ability to open up shops, valuables, etc) in that allowed for larger actions against people that were deemed imperfect by the Nazi regime. In this case, the Trump Administration is set to seperate families and target hispanics because of the notion that they commit most of the crimes, and he does this by taking sob stories of citizens killed by illegal immigrants.

However, the number of citizens killed by illegal immigrants is, while tragic, exaggerated. Likewise with drugs, murder, and rape.

African Americans may have been freed during and after the Civil War but faced a rising South that sought to cover its horrifying history, set up barbaric laws, i.e. Jim Crow. But small practices such as the poll tax, tests for voting, and the use of law enforcement to enforce racist practices were born after Reconstruction because African Americans were seen as inferior, criminal, and obsessed with white women. Sounds familiar with what Trump is saying about Mexicans raping? He didn't say it but it's implied, considering our history of blaming brown people.

Those practices were deemed normal for their time. Note, I said "their time." We have the benefit of hindsight to argue that it's extreme but back then, it wasn't. Today, separating families is that extreme. It just doesn't seem extreme because you hide behind "law and order" but not really. It's because they're brown, Trump made them out to be the boogeyman, and you're scared.

Are you calling our patriots who protested taxes and fought a war against the Brits, snowflakes? You know, they did protest as well. Same with MLK. I guess he was a snowflake for opposing segregation. It's hard to believe but they did. Liberals and progressives make the changes that conservatives are too scared to make.

And that's what Milo said. Don't know why you're arguing with me. Argue with Milo. He said it, not me.

@drunk_pi: Please stop comparing yourself to the old liberals. Its an insult lmao! What are you rebelling against exactly? You don't have one cause thats worth while. Your just a bunch of babies.

Said every apologist throughout history ever..........

The American revolutionaries were a bunch of babies. Slaves were a bunch of babies. Women were a bunch of babies wanting to vote. MLK and southern blacks were babies for wanting equal rights. Women are babies for wanting equal rights. Gays are babies for wanting equal rights and the right to get married. Workers are a bunch of babies for wanting shorter work weeks, safer working environments, and better pay. And we continue to do this to this day.

Liberalism evolves and continues to evolve. You're just a sad little hack who pretends he's a patriot but isn't. You continue to believe in fake news (e.g. fox news, Brietbert) because it continues that whole narrative that liberals are whiners. So far, the only whiners I hear are conservatives, libertarians, and Trumpettes.

Don't forget the trump tweets that are all lies. He believes in those as well. Facts are not important.

@drunk_pi: Ok so please compare some of the struggles going on today with what has happened then. You feel that mistreatment in general rivals that of slavery and the womans sufferage movement? And if so what groups face those challenges?

Also i dont think i mentioned anything about breitbart news are any of that. You just went into full meltdown mode so please stay focused without insults.
