How a 16-year-old took down Milo
Julia closely follows political news from her home in Canada, with a deep interest in American politics. She has been particularly alarmed by the recent rise of Yiannopoulos and others like him. So as soon as she heard Yiannopoulos would speak at CPAC, she was appalled.
Then an old moment popped in her head. She remembered hearing an obscure podcast, in which Yiannopoulos defended the idea of 13-year-olds having sex with older men, arguing that child molestation provided a sort of coming of age relationship for teenagers.
Her memory was right. She found the July 2016 clip.
She didnt think shed have much luck spreading the news herself with her small Twitter following, so she contacted a conservative outlet to get the story out. She figured a liberal outlet would have less credibility among CPAC followers.
She landed on the previously not-very-well-known conservative blog Reagan Battalion, which, after a bit of back and forth, tweeted out the video leading not just to CPAC canceling Yiannopouloss speech, but to Simon & Schuster pulling his already controversial book deal and his resignation from Breitbart.
I thought it would only get, like, 200 retweets, Julia said. I had no idea that it would blow up to the extent that it did.
It ended up at thousands of retweets.

i agree.
A "conservative" who submissively enjoys being the left's doormat.
homosexuality is a perversion and it is sick behavior. it is incredibly unhealthy and its a special protected class and it shouldnt be.
your if you dont do it you cant comment argument is the lamest liberal argument short of playing the race or hitler card.
“Yeah, I am. So you admit you are just a keyboard warrior who delights in helping the left take down genuinely threatening pro Trump warriors.”
*****
NO but I delight in taking down pro-faggot and pedophile supporters of Milo. That means YOU.
He articulates conservative positions and demolishes liberal positions better than 90% of the conservative pundits out there.
So refusing to bend our convictions to fit your broad interpretation of what a conservative should be is being cuckold?
I condemn what God condemns . . . and he condemns Milo through His Word - Milo can not represent me and he certainly can not represent Free Republic.
As well I maintain that without a biblical knowledge of salvation through Jesus Christ no one can be a true conservative in any degree.
His only association with underage sex was as a victim of it.
He has explicitly condemned it.
You can speak for yourself, but you cant speak for everyone on FR
As well I maintain that without a biblical knowledge of salvation through Jesus Christ no one can be a true conservative in any degree.
That is strictly your opinion and completely subjective. Plus, you don't know anyone's salvation status including Milo's. But Milo is fearless and took the fight to some real dangerous leftists, and for that I have more respect for him than any of the alleged, yes, cuckold, "conservatives" who side with the left against him.
You forgot . . .
I condemn what God condemns . . . and he condemns Milo through His Word.
I suspect Milo himself was "molested" into this men having sex with men stuff. As such, he is probably a little confused. He needs our sympathy and prayers.
He also firmly condemned pedophilia (or is it ephebophilia in his case?). As men having sex with men is itself a perversion, his remarks and confusion are not suprising.
Good point!~ We are fighting a war with the other side pounding us or worse. We should not be so quick to give someone the boot. And what if he undergoes conversion therapy?
Well, that's weak.
Yes, I'm sure it's far weaker than your assumptions.
What did I forget about it? This isn't the religion forum. Geeze. And again, that is all opinion and personal belief. Fine. You believe God condemns Milo. OK, so why does the left hate him so much? Think about it and who you are siding with.
You’re the worst type of Christian. Milo was a good Samaritan for the right but you couldn’t wait to purge him no mater how Uchiha he aided our cause.
