"I spent an hour with NPR talking about my new book, DANGEROUS. Broadcast deadlines have repeatedly come and gone and it has become obvious they have no intention of ever broadcasting it. Any guesses why that might be? "
I do not agree with Milo re: reperations for blacks , but other than that , I can’t find much I disagree with him on , and I have listened to many hours of his interviews/talks . I wish I was half as erudite and articulate as he is . ^_^
” rePArations “ - fixed .
“Milo re: reperations for blacks...”
For me that invalidates pretty much anything on his mind.
Milo is a traitor to the Great Leftwing Cause. He simply refuses to accept the idea that Karl Marx is real spiritual leader of the worlds people.
Now that is a tolerable position for you and me. But not for Milo.
He’s Gay. And a Righty. That’s what’s unacceptable to the Left.
We already had reparations for blacks, twice:
1) Civil war; cost: 650000 dead
2) Great Society welfare state; cost: $4T
You know what’s really an effective Milo weapon?
His bragging, “I’m really effective, partly because I’m so funny, handsome and have such a colossal following...”
They friggin’ HATE that.
They hate it when he does it and smiles, but when he loads it on thick with NO giggle or smile then they REALLY seethe.
Another great weapon of his is the word, DARLING.
It’s like he’s throwing acid in their face.
I’d go with reparations, as long as the receiver renounced their American citizenship, left the country & never came back. See how you like it in Ghana, chump!
He did say the money should be used for “ schools/education “ .
No reparations. It is immoral and an abomination to contemplate such.
... which would only make schools worse.
I agree . He’s wrong on this , as I said earlier . But I agree with 90% of what he says/stands for .
That's just silly. A person can be profoundly wrong on a specific issue without it automatically invalidating their position on every other issue...
Reparations would be nothing more than slavery.
And the reparations would be wasted. It’s better for black people to stand on their own two feet. Not doing so has resulted in a lot of killing among black youths.
Hillary would have gone right along with reparations.
And really, when I say slavery I mean for those that pay for reparations and those that receive it.
Couldn’t agree more . Only 2 -4% of people owned slaves back in the day . If anybody should pay reparations it should be descendants of that small minority . Mind you , I’m not saying they should either . Point is , everyone minus these descendants had nothing to do with slavery and therefore have no obligation to fork over their hard earned money to black descendants of slavery . And speaking of descendants of slaves , how would one go about finding all of them ? All blacks were not slaves after all. And wouldn’t it be fair to pay reparations to all of the white men who died to free said slaves ?
I was being a bit tongue in cheek with my comment although “being profoundly wrong on an issue” does exhibit a definate definciency in critical thinking.
