I avoid watching anything with Milo Y. because life is too short.
When I heard the name "Milo" I immediately thought of a malt drink produced by Nestle. Is it sold in the States? It originated in Australia and is also very popular in Southeast Asia. The funny thing about Milo is that it's the favored hot drink of Mormons, who aren't allowed to drink coffee and tea. So in my mind there's a weird chain of association linking a sweet chidren's drink with Mormons, and now with a gay British alt-right activist. It's a small world.
Milo referred to the Rotheram child abuse scandal in his speech. Political correctness and fear of being labeled racist prevented police and local authorities from protecting 1,400 children from vicious sexual abuse and exploitation over a period of 16 years by a gang of Pakistani Musllim men in Yorkshire, England (about 20 minutes drive from my birthplace).

That is really sad that such abuse was not fully investigated and allowed to take place for sixteen-years. Another example of political correctness taking precedent over common sense.
I think Milo tends to make some points, and I suppose this video is no exception. I don't however think he has a genuine bone in his body.
I think it is unfortunate that he was unable to speak at some of his recent venues. He is intelligent and could have provided some great speaking points to some of these college kids.
@JB "I think it is unfortunate that he was unable to speak at some of his recent venues."
When universities ban speakers in response to pressure from PC activists, they are turning their backs on their most fundamental tradition as places for the free development, criticism and exchange of ideas. Then they just become degree factories for mush-brained graduates. I've listened to speeches by communists, fascists, racists, and even fundamentalist Christians, but I never heard any of them utter an idea that disgusts me as much as the notion of banning someone from speaking because you disapprove of what they might say. Nobody has the right not to be offended. They have the right to argue back or just walk away. That's all.
I agree 100%
I was unaware of the 1400 rapes. Shocking. But what do you expect... religions ruin everything.
If Milo said 2 + 2 = 4; I'd get my calculator out and check. Because while I'm pretty sure 2 + 2 = 4, it is a good bet that if it came out of Milo's mouth, it's false.
Yeah, he has some good points. But really it's just another angry person spewing angry words because Muslims are in the spotlight right now. Whatever side of the argument you're on there will always be evidence to show that your way is the right way. Why? Because everyone is hateful. From my experience in one way or another people are extremists. Extreme behavior is met with an extreme response which can only have an extreme outcome. Anything else is not energetic enough to dignify with a response. Humans have a pack mentality. Our emotions feed upon the intensity of others until it's a frenzy. You want outrage? Look around you. It's atrocious how unjust the world is. Yes, the Muslim religion is a distasteful and violent group. But most are. Sure, some hide behind pretty lights and propaganda, but the truth is always outrageous. People want what they want and they are very good at denying to themselves and other people that they are wrong. People love to feel good about themselves so they hide behind their delusions of grandeur. Just my thoughts..
