The Left: Milo Yiannopoulos is grifting on being "Ex-gay". Also the left: Those who declared a gender, changed it, or change it again - not grifting [Vanity]

Milo Yiannopoulos, who has said he was once abused by clergy, has consecrated his life to St. Joseph, is now living celibate with his "husband" as a housemate, and who will enter "conversion therapy", is already being targeted as a "grifter" by the left. As far as being "ex-gay", he said he's entering conversion therapy and living celibate, so I don't think it's exactly as the left is portraying it.

Ironic then if those who said they were a certain gender, now identify as another, may go on to identify as another, or may attempt to revert back, don't seem to be labeled by the left as grifters or attention seekers even if they have the elaborate gender identity reveal parties and all.

What happened to that "judge not lest ye be judged" the left likes to quote? The left is increasingly not looking too virtuous, tolerant, kind, much less holy.

They may say that "trans" people "coming out" face hostility, but Milo won't now even more than ever before? I don't see the left showing the way on how to not be hostile to others.

The political left: What people do in the privacy of their bedroom is their own business!

Also the political left: Milo is celibate now in his bedroom? That IS my business!!!

I hope all who are presently “pressing towards the mark” as St. Paul wrote are successful.

You want to see real leftwing hostility, see how they treat people who thought they were transsexual and after coming to their senses want to “de -transition.”

Meanwhile, Twitter’s BrooklynDad_Defiant! [aka GriftynDad_Defecates!], outed as a paid grifter for the DNC, is NOT a grifter, according to his fellow progressives

Milo has a history of being all over the map on a lot of things. At one point he even signed up for a furry convention. Maybe that was part of a joke, maybe it was a grift attempt, maybe it was a real interest. Someone on another thread called him a professional troll. I think it’s a fair description. Maybe this is a real thing or maybe it’s just the next twist.

Point is, the political left are or should be the last to call him a grifter.

Almost forgot: should he be painted with a broad brush in the present because of his past?

Another point: we can be cautious while still giving him a chance without lowering ourselves to calling him a professional troll.

I pray for his staying on this path...but there are too many people who have gone this route and fallen back into homosexuality. Sometimes orthodox Christians acclaim them and wave them around like triumphant banners, when what they need is a quiet life and time to grow strong.

Thirty years ago there was an abortionist who gave up both abortion and homosexuality and he was the darling of the pro life movement for a year until he backslid.

Okay, I’ll say it: sounds like a publicity stunt.

The Left want gender conversion, but only in one direction: Against reality.

I think he’s definitely an ‘opportunist’; but he has evidenced a far greater grasp of our founding principles and how our system is supposed to work than many of our highly educated ‘respectable’ people do.

Milo is a mess, but he’s also a treasure of a mind. I’m praying he has a mentor equal to his mental stature.

Milo basically only has one place to go anymore, and this is the price of admission.
