Milo vs Maher & Maher's panel

I'd like to say that to Maher. 

Milo is the face of trumponian faggottry

Really wish Scahill didn't pull out of that one.

Could have used a little balance on that panel.

They had a point at the beginning about losing if you don't show up to the debate.

In my opinion we all lost on that episode.  Bill gave softball questions to Milo, who was clearly working the wounded puppy poor me defense,  and the left was shilling hard for the still unproven Russian narrative, however likely it may be.

You know you are off the rails and have nothing when you resort to hurling expletives.

Virtuous troll??? I don't think so.

>>>The still unproven Russian narrative...

Is Watergate something you lived through? If not, it was unproven for quite awhile too. 

Milo is Coulter's flamboyant gay  cousin. Both are attention whores who become  irrelevant if you ignore them. 

<<<Watergate something you lived through? If not, it was unproven for quite awhile too

you'LL notice I did say "however likely" but....

no, my only real living point of reference is Iraqi WMDs.

but you are right, I mean, hey, rampant pedophilia going to the highest levels of the Catholic Church was an unproven, crazy conspiracy theory for 30 years, so I get your point.

Conservatives clean pools?

or, just looking out for your clients?

Watergate..Iran-Contra...

and PIZZAGATE!!!! 

Are you a Maher fan, captain? 

lol.

Maher's point about liberals always taking the bait was spot on, though.

I agree with Maher most of the time. Don't like his take on Islam. 

Whats your problem with Maher, pool boy? A lot of uneducated Trump supporters out there...you another?

Not a fan of his Bourgie tone. 

And I'm an illiterate high school dropout. 

Does that automatically mean Trump supporter? 

Bourgie tone = went to college ? Reads newspapers ?

Tough crowd, dropouts.

Do you want me to be a part of your crowd? What does your crowd do?

What do you want me to do? Go sailing with you? 

Relax, Slax

you be you

Are you pointing a finger at people while doing nothing?  It seems so. 

IMO Bill Maher is a sexist Islamaphobe. I can't get behind the "other than that" mentality that's required to enjoy him. 

Why do you keep trolling these people Slacker? Do you get to say things to them you'd like to be able to say to your clients? 

Who are "these people"? 

What do my customers have to do with this? 

No, Slax. I was curious why you don't like Bill Maher. 

Just talking.

You troll the shit out of several folks. (AKA "these people") The tone of your trolling comes across as bitterness towards folks who are well off. I would imagine your clients are well off, and I could see being a little resentful for having to work for them: hence the projection towards "those people" here. Anyway, I was just curious.

My clients are just homeowners. They range from wealthy to bankrupt. 

Most of them are over 80. They can't physically clean their pool. 

They can't afford to fix their homes and sell them for the going rate. 

They don't want to move into assisted living or go somewhere more affordable but farther from 

family and friends. 

I wouldn't live in Lafayette if I had some bitterness towards everyone here. 

They help pay for some really good schools and we're just trying to stay in the district. 

Fair enough. Dropping the "I'm an illiterate High School dropout" and "I clean pools for a living" stuff on a regular basis kinda makes it sound like you might be a little bitter about your situation. Sorry for the assumption. Keep on trollin' 

You lose credibility when you claim to be illiterate, Slacker. I see no evidence of that on the black screen. Quite the opposite.

Someone must've explained to McDoobie why it's appropriate to refer to the guy who talks about cleaning pools as pool boy. 

Oh wait, that was me 

I still think you suck for calling him "pool boy" Nancy. But your Trump-like ability to twist other people's words around is fairly impressive. Nice try.

Cabana boy work better, McSnowflake?

I bus tables

What's your occupation Nancy?

Bus tables? You work in a restaurant? 

When I talk about my occupation here or use it as a tag line, you are free to use it in your retorts. But I don't, so fuck off.

Yes, I have bused tables as worked as a busboy yin the past. That was an example of why you're  a dimwit for getting your panties in a bunch over Pool Boy

Why does Slacker referencing his occupation give you the right to use it as a pejorative? Just 'cause? 

Because it's irrelevant to the topic. Start a thread about occupations if you care about what people do for a living here. We all know that Pool Boy cleans pools cause he's constantly posting about it as a lame ass retort, as you note above. Actually since I've been calling him Pool boy, it's not happening as frequently, so you're welcome.

I bus tables

like that.

I really don't care what people do for a living Nancy: you're the one that mocking Slacker for his occupation. I asked what you do (edited out now) because I think it's relevant to the shit you lay on Slacker and some of the other stuff you post. As for the "pool boy" thing: why don't you ask Slacker if he's cool with you calling him that, then abide by his answer? 

A lame ass retort to what? 

You know what? This shit is just dumb. Of course Slacker is trolling with the "I clean pools for a living" thing, and of course Nancy is being shitty and condescending by calling him that. It's just the way shit has always been here. Silly to even say anything. You guys have a blast trolling each other. 

What are our roles here? 

Know your place, Slacker. You clean pools, Nancy busses tables, I teach writing. What do you do for a living, McDoobie?

I'm honestly not allowed to discuss what I do for a living or who I do it for online. But I can say it's an office job that relates to the banking industry. 

I'm a kept man

That's a good gig. I think there's a few more of you here. I'm totally jealous. 

It can be tiring trying to figure out what to do with myself every day, but somehow I manage.

Trolling helps

Get a Playstation. There won't be enough free hours in the day. 

That would be a great idea if I wasn't an adult

i can't tell you what i do because i'd have to kill you (and some people here would be a real pleasure to make disappear for good), but next month i start training on how to interrogate people. really looking forward to that

Now THAT is a strict non-disclosure agreement. 

Meh. The adult thing looks overrated. Lots of cartoons and video games until I die.

we already had a thread about the topic.

Both Mcdoobie and Slacker have red asses from the spankings they have both been receiving. 

Nancy is my early entry for 2017 ZOTY. 

My ass remains lily white JR.

It's too bad there isn't a B list Zoner honorable mention kind of thing for you guys to compete for. You might be a solid contender.

Calm down, Turtle. This is just a mid-thread tangent.

I don't think I would enjoy a job that restricts my First Amendment rights, but that's just me. 

It is what it is Mike. It's due to regulatory stuff I'm comfortable with. (sort of like HIPPA) And there really wouldn't be anything interesting or relevant to say anyway.

And I wouldn't say I really "enjoy" my job. 

Mcdoobie is a male nurse. 

Back on topic for Turtle:

The Milo Yiannopoulos thing seems really weird to me. Do the al-right folks give him a pass for the over the top gay act because he's such a solid hater? (Even other gay people.) Does it give them the opportunity to show how "progressive" they are? 

Who's qualified to answer those questions? 

You are Slacker. Offer an opinion. 

What about you, JR? What do you do when you're not trolling dbmbs and walking with your hot girlfriend at the beach?

Bump for Milo's bad Monday. He was cancelled as the keynote speaker at a conservative conference, lost a book deal and might be fired by Breitbart.

http://www.foxbusiness.com/politics/2017/02/20/breitbart-news-may-boot-milo-yiannopoulos-over-sex-comments.html

I think the answer is no, McDoob. 

Maybe Kurt(Seadoggie) will step in and say no as well. 

After the quote below I think he's done and today's events seem to support that. What a creepy asshole!

"I'm grateful for Father Michael," Yiannopoulos replied. "I wouldn't give nearly such good head if it wasn't for him."

So the conspiracy nuts go off on Pizzagate, but seem awfully mum about this actual mess. 

http://www.newyorker.com/news/news-desk/how-alt-right-fellow-traveller-m...

On Monday afternoon, shortly before he learned that he had been disinvited from the annual Conservative Political Action Conference, or cpac, that his book deal with Simon & Schuster had been cancelled, and that his fellow-employees at Breitbart News were threatening to quit if he wasn’t fired, Milo Yiannopoulos calmly explained to me that he wasn’t a pedophile or an anti-Semite. Over the weekend, interviews in which he discussed underage sex and Jewish influence on the media and finance had circulated on social media. A group calling itself the Reagan Battalion had scoured the Web and assembled a highlight reel of Yiannopoulos’s most offensive statements, including an endorsement of having sex with thirteen-year-olds...

“Things sometimes tumble out of your mouth on these long late-night live streams, when everyone is spitballing and had a couple of drinks, that are not completely expressed and not exactly what you intend. Obviously, if I had known I was going to have the media profile I have now, I would have been cautious about this stuff. I never imagined that I would become famous,” Yiannopoulos told me. He is usually brash and outrageous, leaning on his partly Jewish background and the fact that he is gay as a shield to justify his insults. A recent short music video that he posted on YouTube showed him and some shirtless men building a wall on what purported to be the Mexican border. But yesterday afternoon he was sorrowful and self-pitying as he tried to explain himself. “Everything I say in there is completely defensible with proper context and explanation. It just takes nuance and close attention to understand what I’m really getting at.”

Yiannopoulos is the technology editor for Breitbart, the right-wing, pro-Trump news site formerly run by Steve Bannon, who is now President Trump’s chief strategist and arguably the most powerful man in the White House. While working for Bannon, Yiannopoulos did more than anyone else at Breitbart to explain and build bridges to the so-called alt-right, the amorphous collection of neo-nationalist activists. Bannon once said that Breitbart was “the platform for the alt-right.” Yiannopoulos, who has called himself a “fellow-traveller” of the movement, last year wrote a sympathetic essay, “An Establishment Conservative’s Guide to the Alt-Right,” which attempted to usher the movement into semi-respectability among the site’s many Trump-loving readers. “Some—mostly Establishment types—insist it’s little more than a vehicle for the worst dregs of human society: anti-Semites, white supremacists, and other members of the Stormfront set,” Yiannopoulos and his co-author, Allum Bokhari, wrote. “They’re wrong.”

Actually, they were right. The Anti-Defamation League, which studiesthe movement, describes its adherents as those “who reject mainstream conservatism in favor of forms of conservatism that embrace implicit or explicit racism or white supremacy.” At an infamous alt-right conference in Washington in November, attendees toasted Trump with the Nazi salute. But, over the past year, Yiannopoulos, along with the alt-right, Bannon, and Trump—whom Yiannopoulos often calls “Daddy”—moved from the laughingstock fringes to the center of the conservative movement. Earlier this month, when a Yiannopoulos event at U.C. Berkeley attracted violent protesters and was cancelled, the President took notice with a shocking threat. “If U.C. Berkeley does not allow free speech and practices violence on innocent people with a different point of view – NO FEDERAL FUNDS?” he said on Twitter.

The Berkeley event turned some of Yiannopoulos’s critics on the right into sympathizers, who started to view him as a martyr for free speech. Matt Schlapp, the head of the American Conservative Union, which runs cpac, invited Yiannopoulos to speak. The annual conference begins on Wednesday, and will feature remarks by Vice-President Mike Pence and a joint appearance by Bannon and Reince Priebus, the White House chief of staff.

“Instead of avoiding controversy, we have decided that it’s a more responsible thing, in a respectful way, to put controversial topics on the stage and to allow the attendees to hear what they like and what they don’t like,” Schlapp told me. “We’re seeking to resolve some differences, especially differences in the conservative movement.”

For Schlapp, the Berkeley event was the crucial factor. “We talk about that topic every year at cpac,” he said, referring to intolerance of conservative views in academia. “And he is the latest example of a voice that gets shut down on college campuses. We thought it was a reasonable thing to add that to the agenda.”

The invitation immediately drew outrage, including from members of cpac’s own board. When Ned Ryun, a pro-Trump board member who runs the organization American Majority, which helps train conservatives to run for office, learned of the invitation, during a green-room conversation with Schlapp at Fox News, he was furious, and told him that he would go public with his opposition.

“The board was not consulted at all on Milo,” Ryun told me. “There was no board vote. And some of us have very strong opinions about Milo. I think the alt-right and its apologists and ‘fellow-travellers,’ or however the hell he describes himself, doesn’t deserve any platform inside the conservative movement. I think they should be drummed out much like Buckley did with the John Birch Society, in the sixties.” He added, “We don’t need to give vile, disgusting, hateful speech a platform.”

Charlie Sykes, a prominent conservative commentator and Never Trump activist, was similarly disgusted. “So let me get this straight: Matt Schlapp thinks that Milo has ‘an important’ message and this is about free speech?” he asked me, via a direct message on Twitter. “Not sure what is worse: the intellectual or the moral decadence on display here. Apparently, racism, anti-Semitism, and the embrace of Alt Right isn’t disqualifying for CPAC,” he wrote. “This raises the larger question: Are there any standards for conservatives in the Age of Trump? Obviously being an erratic narcissist can’t be disqualifying. Racist tweets or bullying can’t be disqualifying. Trafficking in Alt Right memes has been normalized. So with Trump as POTUS, where can conservatives draw the line? CPAC’s logic: We’ll embrace anyone the Left hates, even if they are a vile, disingenuous, bigoted click whore.”

He has resigned from Breitbart

https://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/style/milo-yiannopoulos-resigns...

book dropped, speaking engagement dropped, no more breitbart. Seems like he is getting slapped down a bit, BUT.. his whole shtick is to be noticed, just like Trump, and these recent turn of events will somehow only help milo.  He creeps me out and Im all for free speech. Creeps everywhere i guess.

How will these recent events help him? Do you know of a group that will 

pay him? 

He can become a  spokesperson for NAMBLA or maybe the KKK will have him?

or his former boss and champion Bannon will find him a job in the White House? 

http://www.slate.com/blogs/the_slatest/2017/02/21/trump_steve_bannon_and...

Deport him.

 Trump/Bannon can make him Ambassador to...Saudi Arabia, or wherever his perverted little heart desires. 

Make people disappear lol

>>>> How will these recent events help him? Do you know of a group that will pay him? 

The Apprentice contestant?

From the slate.com link above

Before joining the Trump campaign, White House senior adviser Steve Bannon was the publisher of Breitbart, the far-right site on which Yiannopoulos posted much of his most infamous work, e.g. the column in which he wrote that American women should stop taking birth control because they need to "breed" in order to "keep the Muslim invaders at bay." Said Yiannopoulos of Bannon in a Washington Post piece: "He made me a star." Bannon has praised Yiannopoulos' work as "valuable." (Yiannopoulos resigned from Breitbart on Tuesday.)

In July, the Trump campaign held a Reddit AMA that was exclusively open to members of The_Donald, a subforum rife with anti-Semitism, white supremacist ranting, and various other forms of hate-speech garbage. (At the time, I noted that the word cunt had been used on The_Donald 458 times.) The_Donald's most prominent member was Milo Yiannopoulos, who'd just been banned from Twitter for inciting harassment of black actress Leslie Jones. Trump answered questions from only 12 users of the many who submitted comments; as you can see above, one of them was Yiannopoulos.

Just-ousted national security adviser Michael Flynn called Yiannopoulos "brave" and said he was a "phenomenal individual" at a November conference for young conservatives.

In February of this year, Trump tweeted a threat to revoke the University of California–Berkeley's federal funding because it had canceled Yiannopoulos' appearance on campus when protests against him turned violent.

With all these fans at the top levels of government, it seems like this Milo guy might just land on his feet!

Maybe Nambla will pay him. As much as he was making? He lost his bargaining leverage right? 

Didnt the KKK pressure Brietbart to drop him after the video surfaced? 

I'm only responding because Nanc asked us to revive and update this discussion. 

I wouldn't care if he were beheaded. 

Maybe sweater vest could teach Milo what the word libertarian means?

He'll change it up a bit and get a gig, but man is he one disgusting individual who deserves to be punched. 

Yes, I agree he is a creep. But if you dont think this can benefit him in the long run, I respectfully disagree. Nambla jokes aside, what he has done is make his name so visible that he has increased his "brand".   Speaking engagements will continue. He has every media outlet in the world talking about him, free PR. No such thing a bad PR, even for pederasts. He'll likely develop his own blog/website/news outlet and someone else will give him a book offer. Thats just off the top of my head.  He will not disappear and you have not heard the last of this sicko.  "look at me" is his whole game. And you are looking.

Did people run from Trump when he grabbed some "p" in a presidential campaign?  Its a messed up world.

His new gig : Queer pedophile eye for the conservative guy

HA! you never know. We elected trump after all.  I bet Maher is having a chuckle.

So, I know I'm the crazy conspiracy guy and all, but doesn't Milo's logo, which is just his stylized name, look like a guy in doggy position....sort of from the back and the side at the same time?

Not that that means any thing, but it's clearly there.

(and btw, It's kind of interesting seeing who's finding Jesus on the pedophilia issue all of a sudden) 

>>Queer pedophile eye for the conservative guy

Ok, now that's pretty funny. Good one. 

um ok.....yall need to be a bit smarter here....

this is the epidomy of fake news.... totally fabricated to inflame, distract and freak you out...  straight out of left feild...

and yall are falling for this??? this is maximun strength fake shit, ala propaganda with a helping of psychological warfare served up hot in your face..

sorry to add but Mahler is a total tool of the media empire  which is filling you all full of shit every day....

wise up people... the government is at war WITH YOU......

jonny needs to get laid.  Bad. 

dude you need to pull your head from your ass....

Jon is 100% correct.

Milo is just an impish asshole distraction.

Like I said earlier, this week's show was an excercise in extremism.  I understand and respect Scahill's reasons for pulling out, but the show was much poorer without his viewpoint and voice.  

So is he Trump's or Bannon's fuck boy?, and did they originally hook up with him at Clinton's pizza parlor?

Jonny made me feel a little dumb. : (

Julian Assange stepped in it, and is getting trolled for his insane remarks bigly. 

"US 'liberals' today celebrate the censorship of right-wing UK provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos over teen sex quote"

In other wikileaks related news,

Lady Lynn Forester de Rothschild is not happy with John Podesta on the heels of his recent Q&A where he blamed fake news and the Comet Pizza Ping Conspiracy for Hillary's loss.

https://twitter.com/LdeRothschild/status/834293947690262528

"@johnpodesta this is pathetic; HRC lost because you ran an arrogant out of touch campaign;you have destroyed a great family and are a loser"

Harsh words from arguably one of the most powerful families in the world.

Not lookin' good for ole Skippy.

I'd like to point out I was out ahead of the Lady on this one, btw.

This is one of the legitimately most powerful women in the world and a huge Hillary donor, one Hillary is repeatedly seen sucking up to in her emails to de Rothschild.  Wikileaks has shown Lynn Rothschild received an uncharacteristically formal, apologetic email from Hillary Clinton where Hillary tells de Rothschild: "Let me know what penance I owe you."

https://www.wikileaks.ch/clinton-emails/emailid/1570

I honestly think they are telegraphing the punch after Milo the sacrificial lamb primed liberals consciousness about an apparently serious problem in a very narrow strata of our society.  

I'm not holding my breath, but I wouldn't be surprised to see Podesta fall. 

agent 73, no one is denying that  pedophiles  exist as do criminal pedophile rings, around the globe -  and it's not just powerful rich folks who are sick perverts. This lastest pedophile in the news doesn't lend any credence to Pizzagate or your other whacked conspiracy theories. Your pedophile obsession is whacked,

 <<<This lastest pedophile in the news doesn't lend any credence to Pizzagate or your other whacked conspiracy theories

loL.

who said it did?

not me.

"the latest pedophile" you are referring to was a reference.

I'm talking about something completely different.

You really just see keywords and get all huffy and emotional , don't you?

standard operating procedure for Nancy when she has nothing of substance to talk about....demonize the poster.

it's in nearly every thread you participate in.  

Huffy and emotional. Cool.

 i hate it because Maher was my boy and now he's my boy that i've lost some respect for. it sucks.

That's all I can surmise, Nancy.

I know you feel "mansplain'd" or some shit, but rational people don't act the way you do.  

I bring up information and you attack me. 

Not the information. 

If you'LL notice, I never start anything with you.

It's always you taking issue with something I'm bringing to the table and choosing to address it personally rather than factually.

That's why I can only assume you are emotional and huffy.

You seem short and petty in your interactions with me.

If you were sure of your position anot acting rationally, you'd either have something legit to contribute or you'd leave it alone, I'd think. Your cheap shots seem emotional and huffy. yes.

Agent 73 Gets all lashy outy when mocked for his crazy conspiracy theories. Cool

(((cone of silence)))

I clean pools. 

Awesome, Poolboy! 

JR its best to let it fall away....   anything from the media now is total BS..... think for yourself.

<<<Agent 73 Gets all lashy outy when mocked for his crazy conspiracy theories. Cool

Lashy outtie?

The bar for lashy outtie sure has fallen!

I felt the need to explain my "emotional and huffy" comment after you noted it in the interest of communication with you.

Won't feel that need again.

Milo is a collective of about 3-4 personas. 

he becomes what sells, and i actually dont believe he is any of them.

Dreams die hard.  If you still believe that Trump won the Presidency because of Russian interference in our electoral system you are exhibiting a serious case of delusion and an inability to look reality in the face and deal with it.

John Oliver returns 2 weeks from tonight :)

> If you still believe that Trump won the Presidency because of Russian interference in our electoral system you are exhibiting a serious case of delusion and an inability to look reality in the face and deal with it.<

I believe that Trump's overt racism played a lager role.

Thom must not believe the intel community just like his President, figures.

Totally the racism more than anything else 

^didn't say that, Slack, but his anti immigrant rhetoric was a persistent and popular theme.
