Meet jewish Faggot Milo Yiannopoulos, the Appealing Young Face of the Racist Altistic-Right
Milo Yiannopoulos is a beast.
The 31-year-old, boastfully gay Breitbart writer—or “dangerous faggot”—has quickly become a hero to young conservatives and libertarians for smacking down the ridiculous out-of-control “social justice warriors” who troll college campuses.
If Donald Trump defies political correctness, Yiannopoulos—an avid Trump supporter prone to calling The Donald “daddy”—obliterates it.
A woman confronted Yiannopoulos during his speech in a packed American University auditorium last month, asking if his controversial rhetoric “invalidated” minority views.
“Fuck your feelings,” he told her.
The kids loved it. Me too.
How could you not? As the student left becomes insufferably extreme, Milo’s become the perfect counterpunch.
He’s irreverent. He’s exciting.
To an old guy like me—a whole decade Milo’s senior!—he’s punk rock.
“At 6’2, punctuated by a tall poof of bleached hair… his friends will tell you, he is always ‘on,’ whether he’s railing against the matriarchy, bragging about his own fabulousness or discussing his love of ‘black dick,” wrote Fusion last year.
He’s a middle finger to the establishment, left and right.
Slamming #NeverTrump Republicans last week, Yiannopoulos scolded the GOP for offending young Trump supporters like himself, “Unlike most right-wing writers, my biggest demographic is 18-34 year olds.”
“Those weren’t just any old voters you were alienating,” Milo said to anti-Trump Republicans. “They include the next generation of conservative firebrands, who are currently gravitating to Trump, the alt-right, and me.”
“The alt-right.”
There are worse things than political correctness.

In March, Yiannopoulos coauthored a 3,500-word piece for Breitbart called “An Establishment Conservative’s Guide To The Alt-Right.”
“Although initially small in number,” Yiannopoulos and Allum Bokhari explained, “the alt-right has a youthful energy and jarring, taboo-defying rhetoric that have boosted its membership and made it impossible to ignore.”
This movement is young, they do defy taboos and unfortunately, the alt-right has become impossible to ignore.
Because it’s racist.
I don’t mean “racist” like the left does, where merely being white and male is a sin.
I mean rationalizing that you’re intellectually or culturally superior because you’re white. I mean believing that black and brown people are less valuable to society and should be viewed with contempt.
I’ve never met Milo Yiannopoulos and am not really that concerned with whether he’s a racist or not. Such accusations are what the left does ad nauseam and part of what Yiannopoulos rightly fights against.
But I do think he flirts with racism: “The alt-right openly crack jokes about the Holocaust, loudly—albeit almost entirely satirical—expresses its horror at ‘race-mixing… They have no real problem with race-mixing…” writes Yiannopoulos.
I do think he opens windows that concern me: “Anything associated as closely with racism and bigotry as the alternative right will inevitably attract real racists and bigots,” admits Yiannopoulos. “The alt-right’s intellectuals would also argue that culture is inseparable from race,” he writes.
I know well where this kind of collectivist thinking can lead. (You can read at The Beast about my own “Southern Avenger” controversy).
I’ve spent the last eight years as part of the Ron and Rand Paul-inspired liberty movement, speaking to groups like Young Americans for Liberty (a few YAL local chapters have sponsored some Milo Yiannopoulos events). Today, YAL is the largest center-right youth group in America.
As an organization dedicated to individual liberty.
The alt-right is the polar opposite of libertarianism.
