And Milo was saying pretty recently at some lecture that Ben Shapiro was done.

So Shapiro gets the biggest boost out of this and of course, is the next target of the left.

So this, of course, means Bill Clinton must retroactively resign.

Milo is the kind of guy who never backs down to a false allegation, and owns up to any true one. If he believed the criticism wasn't merited, he would force breitbart to fire him and then fight the firing. Stepping down means that he's accepting that the criticisms are genuine and taking responsibility. He would never take responsibility for something he didn't do, didn't say, or for something said which was taken out of context and misconstrued. He would fight it tooth and nail.

naw Milo is all about Milo

fighting Breitbart would literally kill almost all of his outlets. they paid for his college tours

so he's lost his book deal

he's somewhat of a pariah

and he'd be burning every media bridge in the US if he fought Breitbart. he's not going to do that

he's gotta take his lick and try to come back when people forget about this

Hope he took care of his money (flamboyant people aren't always the best at that kind of thing).

Otherwise he's going to end up being Elton John or Peter Thiel's rentboy. That would be very sad.

You either die a hero or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.

Time will tell which scenario is applicable.

Looks like it.

Yiannopoulos addressed the controversy in two Facebook posts on Monday. He denounced claims that he was advocating for pedophilia, while also expressing some regret for his past remarks. He also argued that the videos were “edited deceptively.”

“I’m partly to blame. My own experiences as a victim led me to believe I could say anything I wanted to on this subject, no matter how outrageous,” he said.

"But I understand that my usual blend of British sarcasm, provocation and gallows humor might have come across as flippancy, a lack of care for other victims or, worse, 'advocacy.' I deeply regret that.”

Yiannopoulos also said he has “repeatedly expressed disgust” about pedophilia through his previous writing and noted that he has “outed” three child abusers.

"I am a gay man, and a child abuse victim,” he wrote on Facebook. "I would like to restate my utter disgust at adults who sexually abuse minors. I am horrified by pedophilia and I have devoted large portions of my career as a journalist to exposing child abusers.”

I kept saying he needed to turn down his shtick but no one here wanted to listen to me.

I don't want to turn on Bill O'Reilly and hear him talking about how he likes his arse licked. I want to hear sound, logical opinions. Why the frick is it any different with Milo's homo arse?

Alright Harvey. The kid did it to himself. Even his fans like SFP acknowledge it. If you make a career of being outrageous and rubbing people the wrong way don't expect a lot of understanding when you frick up.

Stupid games stupid prizes and all that.
