As a rule, any argument that needs to be prefaced with "as a black man" or whatever sucks. Quality arguments stand on their own and screen off the need for some arbitrary moral authority.

because he described the relationships with older men and a priest as a teenager as simply wonderful. He was absolutely adamant about it. LMAO


that was dark humor. he was on a comedians show/podcast.
it was his way of working through his past as a child abuse victim.

OK. Now I think I have it. He was just joking about it as a means of self healing. LOL Have you even listened to both interviews?. Not just the Rogan interview

I kind of got that opinion. Sounds like he had a fricked up childhood.

He certainly could. With the internet, he doesn't need Breitbart.

I understand Milo taking heat. What I don't understand is Lena Dunham and Sarah Silverman not getting any heat. What they have said/ did is worse.

Regressives get a pass. Dunham bragged about molesting her sister and the left and Hollywood were silent.
Milo made jokes about being abused as a teen and they tried to destroy him because of his right leaning politics.

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

Then why did Milo decline to identify the priest, who could very well be molesting boys to this day? Why does he claim to have attended several Hollywood parties that featured "very young boys"(his words) for sex, and he hasn't turned these people in?

Milo should take over the Log Cabin Republicans in a military style coup.

This is probably the most indefensible aspect of his comments and I think his defenders know it which is why they're parsing and litigating the priest thing.

Milo: “This is a controversial point of view I accept. We get hung up on this kind of child abuse stuff to the point where we’re heavily policing even relationships between consenting adults, you know grad students and professors at universities.”

The men in the joint video interview then discuss Milo’s experience at age 14.

Another man says: “The whole consent thing for me. It’s not this black and white thing that people try to paint it. Are there some 13-year-olds out there capable of giving informed consent to have sex with an adult, probably…”

The man says, “The reason these age of consent laws exist is because we have to set some kind of a barometer here, we’ve got to pick some kind of an age…”

Milo: “The law is probably about right, that’s probably roughly the right age. I think it’s probably about okay, but there are certainly people who are capable of giving consent at a younger age, I certainly consider myself to be one of them, people who are sexually active younger. I think it particularly happens in the gay world by the way. In many cases actually those relationships with older men…This is one reason I hate the left. This stupid one size fits all policing of culture. (People speak over each other). This sort of arbitrary and oppressive idea of consent, which totally destroys you know understanding that many of us have. The complexities and subtleties and complicated nature of many relationships. You know, people are messy and complex. In the homosexual world particularly. Some of those relationships between younger boys and older men, the sort of coming of age relationships, the relationships in which those older men help those young boys to discover who they are, and give them security and safety and provide them with love and a reliable and sort of a rock where they can’t speak to their parents. Some of those relationships are the most -”

It sounds like Catholic priest molestation to me, another man says, interrupting Milo.

Milo: “And you know what, I’m grateful for Father Michael. I wouldn’t give nearly such good head if it wasn’t for him.”

Other people talk. Oh my God, I can’t handle it, one man says. The next thing in line is going to be pedophilia…says another man.

Milo: “You’re misunderstanding what pedophilia means. Pedophilia is not a sexual attraction to somebody 13-years-old who is sexually mature. Pedophilia is attraction to children who have not reached puberty. Pedophilia is attraction to people who don’t have functioning sex organs yet. Who have not gone through puberty. Who are too young to be able (unclear and cut off by others)…That’s not what we are talking about. You don’t understand what pedophilia is if you are saying I’m defending it because I’m certainly not.”

Another man said, “You are advocating for cross generational relationships here, can we be honest about that?”

Milo: “Yeah, I don’t mind admitting that. I think particularly in the gay world and outside the Catholic church, if that’s where some of you want to go with this, I think in the gay world, some of the most important, enriching and incredibly life affirming, important shaping relationships very often between younger boys and older men, they can be hugely positive experiences for those young boys. They can even save those young boys, from desolation, from suicide (people talk over each other)… providing they’re consensual.”
