What if he becomes the senior editor of the Gay section on Huffpost. They occasionally had pro-free speech articles in the college section a few years ago, but who knows that could have changed by now.

Milo isn't a pedophile. Gore Vidal and Roman Polanski are/were and are still being published / funded

You do know that right now you are supporting de facto book banning, right?

Book banning.




I thought y'all were all for the free market? Not anymore? I mean, if you or Milo think there is a legitiment long-term market there then y'all would be fools not to open your own publishing house. This is the stuff that drives entrepreneurship


edit: I haven't read the thread yet but if no one else has mentioned it then this is obviously a publicity stunt. After working all of the trumpkins into a frenzy over cancelling it, they will sudenly, after much thought and consideration, see the light and release the book. All the trumpkins rush out to buy their copy so they can show all their friends how they SJW'd "the man"

I'm sure the man-boy love association members will send him enough money to self publish.

Thats right.

The books Jenkins, as czar of safe schools, used books from his organization GLSEN. Those books were targeting middle schoolers. They were explicted. The people interviewed in those books talked about their experiences as 13 year olds with older men.

Yes. We have been completely infested in the last 40-50 years. Gramsci's "long march thru the institutions" has been completed.

How ironic that the party of free speech and defending pedophilia gets butthurt because a gay Jew with a black boyfriend was well received by their idol Bill Maher, and their coordinated response is to get said gay Jew fired from his job and his publishing deal canceled by claiming he is pro-pedophilia.

You can't make this shite up.

That's why they cancelled if this was a small ideological publisher they could take the hit- but the kinds of people who give big advances also have the juice to just cancel it and the kind of ties where they're vulnerable to pressure- if Milo cost them a major fiction author for example.

I'm a little bothered by some right leaning posters bailing on Milo today. Smacks of a little of some jumping at the chance to get away from him because he is a gay guy that likes BBC.

Let me be clear. I think this is happy horse shite.

Nothing but a manufactured take down b

Half of Milo's schtick is that the left wants to "silence" him. This will probably only serve to promote that narrative and encourage his most ardent followers. Meanwhile, I'm sure there's at least one greedy publishing company that would take a chance to publish a pretty much guaranteed instant best-seller. I would caution anyone against jumping to the conclusion that this is somehow going to end him.

I don't know if we're all watching the same video, but he does reference himself then goes on to justify that type of relationship generally.
He really doesn't. He addresses it as apropos to himself.

Look, I was an exceedingly precocious kid and young adult.
I expected to be able to run circles around most adults, and I did.
I can certainly relate to Milo in that regard.

Essentially he's saying at 14, he personally was as competent as most adults. I don't doubt that at all. He may well be spot on.

This reminds me of when none of the big film studios would release Passion of the Christ.

So Mel Gibson released it independently, kept all the profits and became one of the richest people in Hollywood.

Book sales for traditional publishers are as low as they've ever been. Milo had a sure-fire best seller and they are now canceling it?

Something stinks. He probably will be able to sue them and he will certainly get it published by someone. These people are even bigger whores than Milo is.
