First Flynn now Milo. Hope the nevertrumpers are proud of themselves
They tried it with Kellyanne. Who knows who will be next?
“We are indeed watching a rolling coup”
You betcha. +1
Actually, perhaps i should elaborate in case someone misunderstands that. Typically, “identificaton with the aggressor” is thought of in the context of situations where the abused becomes the abuser. That’s not what I’m saying about Milo because I don’t think he’s an abusive pedophile. Far from it, actually. He may have identified with his abuser, but he’s smart enough to deal with any resultant anger in other ways other than becoming an abuser himself. (e.g., humor and helping nab 3 pedophiles via his professional life).
IOW, he apparently had enough good examples in his life while growing up that helped him. Yes, he “identified” with his rapist priest, but he didn’t incorporate and emulate the priest’s behavior as an adult. Instead, he became more passive instead of aggressive, using his humor to channel any aggression that pops up on occasion. Yes, he is still not to the point where he can talk about the abuse without making excuses for the priest, but he’ll get there. In the meantime, he has his very quick wit and sharp mind to help him deal with the trauma.
An within a month Bannon will be history. This is why Trump shouldn’t have given them the head of Flynn.
Exactly, that has emboldened them. These attacks will continue. They tried with Kellyanne. And it doesn’t help when some on “our side” join in.
Agent Provocateur. He and his ilk expose and stoke the the loony and increasingly militant left and their fringe.
Amen! We need to unite, no matter WHAT our thoughts are about other people's lifestyle. This is war, and Trump cannot fight it alone. If we sit by and make him fight this fight alone, we have ourselves to blame if this goes far enough for bullets to start flying.
And keeping with the CW2 analogy, I would welcome Milo in my foxhole any day over any of the pious, self-righteous, sanctimonious, globalist NeverTrumpers.
Hell yes!
There are some who think that defending a faggot from smears, innuendos and lies is equivalent to defending the practice of faggotry.
That is 100% pure sheepdipped liberal logic.
If you're against abortion you're against women's rights.
If you support gun ownership you support all the crimes committed with guns.
If you oppose unfettered welfare you want people to starve.
If you criticized 0bama you're a racist.
If you support Voter ID you're trying to suppress the minority vote.
If you support a secure border you hate Mexicans/immigrants.
It's a strawman argument, a logical fallacy, used to demagogue and short-circuit critical thinking.
Thank you.
Thank you.
Global corporations all, controlled by foreign tyrannical interests.
That's why Big Media is fake and anti-American.
I watched Cernovich on Periscope at the conventions. He was my news media. I’d watch what was happening with him live and then check MSM and they were CONSTANTLY lying.
I’m always going to be a Cernovich fan.
Yes, he was great! We are bringing in a lot of new blood to our side, and I think this is getting some peoples noses out of joint.
I haven’t had time to look at Milo’s presser but I did see his FB? message where he mentioned that a pedophile is attracted to a pre-pubescent child, whereas what he’s talked about is how some gay teens look to older men for comfort when they don’t have a father figure.
When I read what he said it made me think of what Travis McGee said about pederasts who abuse pubescent males in order to confuse their sexual identity and groom them for future relationships with “father figure” gay men.
Milo is being honest, and his honesty in bringing it up would be an EXCELLENT opportunity for this whole process to be exposed, and for victims to understand that their coping mechanisms are understandable considering what they went through but are not necessarily the ideal healing.
The trouble is that right now nobody is willing to truly listen to anybody else. Everybody wants to throw their rocks at anybody they perceive as being “caught in adultery” (or whatever they’re “caught” in). Scripture says that in the end times, because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold. I think we see that in the unwillingness to listen, dig deep, understand, and help each other heal.
Milo seems to have honesty. Where there is honesty there is hope for growth. Give me an honest gay person over a Pharisee any day.
Tenmuntainman, I hear what you’re saying and I know what you mean. Ideally, he would leave the gay stuff as a private issue. But I do think what Milo does is a coping mechanism, and it sounds like he probably would agree. And I think that gay people need to know that Christians and conservatives (and especially those who are both) are willing to listen and help, and not just throw their rocks or change the subject.
I don’t know if we can say that every gay person is that way because of a response to a very hurtful past, but I think there are people who prey on adolescent boys, and our society that winks at the victims’ coping mechanisms only enables the exploitation and traps the victims. In many ways the “pro-homosexual agenda” folks are to these victims what Planned Parenthood is to the pregnant victims of statutory rape: those who gain political power and/or money by making it easy for the perps to get away with their crimes because they hide that there are very real victims. A LOT of very real victims, who may scream out wildly in supprt of the political agenda to hide that they really are a victim. They all doth protest too much.
I think Milo is different, because he’s willing to honestly bring it all out into the open where we as a people can either do the subject justice, or all keep using the issues for political purposes. Those who use it to throw rocks are no better than those who use it to have profane “gay pride” circuses in the streets.
What needs to happen is real listening, real understanding, and real healing. But it’s not going to happen in this climate. And that makes me incredibly sad.
Which is lost on so many because they only care about the fact he is gay. These same types are free to pick up where Milo left off and go to these left wing colleges and face the liberal protestors.
Yup. And without our patronage they wither.
A national effort to starve these anti-American corps would be cool.
Solid Reasoning ends with his gushing over other men’s d&*&& which is always alluded to as he twirls his pearls.
There is nothing rational or virtuous about males who desire to sodomize other males. It is a satanic, vile worldview that is anti-Christian and anti-Natural Law (Constitution/Common Sense).
Sodomy is evil, a vice, and dehumanization and a degrading behavior, and mocks God’s Design of the human body, mocks mature masculinity and science and virtue (which is necessary for Freedom) and is sexist to boot.
Sodomy promotion destroys the Natural Family, the Constitution (based on Natural Law and Reason/Logic), and destroys the Natural Duty enshrined in the Constitution which demands all parents do their Natural Duty of raising their own offspring. And it is dehumanizing to deny babies their biological mother and father (Marxism), which homosexual “marriage” (an oxymoronic concept—so irrational and anti-constitutional) does.
The Worldview is anti-Reason and anti-Virtue and Virtue is necessary for Freedom (all Founders/Socrates/Aristotle).
Methinks these "sanctified serpents" are in for a real surprise when the Almighty tells them they joined forces with the Philistines to bring down Samson, and their only reply is "but he was a reprobate!"
No, it only ends there for you and your ilk.
Others of us know better than to throw away a fine rifle just because it's "greasy."
He repeated his support for age of consent laws, and the typical age limits set in such laws. However, he said that he thought that the age of consent in his mother's native Germany was too low. It is currently 14.
He said that his book will be coming out soon from another publisher. He expressed his continuing support for Breitbart. He plans to continue the speaking gigs.
The videos used against him were not new, and had been edited before release, to remove Milo's critically important statements supporting age of consent laws.
This was a well planned and executed political hit job. Somebody paid for this. Milo did deserve to be criticized for some of what he said, as he admits. He did not deserve what just happened.
His book was number one in sales on Amazon less than a month ago. He has been a hugely effective spokesman against political correctness, feminism, insane leftism, etc. He has been extremely popular with Millenials, a group that is rarely exposed to conservative points of view.
I hope he can recover and continue.
