www.abc.net.au/news/2017-12-04/milo-yiannopoulos-protesters-clash-in-melbourne/9225270Absolute madness in Melbourne where reports of about 500 leftists, a couple hundred police and around 50 "right wingers" clash over a speaking visit by Milo Yiannopoulis... I have nothing to say about his views but I think the reaction speaks volumes as to the way discourse has gone in this country. Gives Milo plenty of publicity if nothing else...

I can't figure this guy out - a gay guy that lives with a black husband. Exactly the sort of person most "right wingers" would hate. Then again, there are hundreds of neo-nazis in Russia too, despite the fact that millions of Russians died fighting the nazis or were killed in the death camps.

Hence the 'alt-right' label. There really isn't much to work out. He's a shitlord, an instagator, a troll... Whatever your label for him he likes to wind up the left and an enemy of my enemy is my friend.
It's difficult to determine what Milo actually thinks as I'm sure he'd take whatever position or say whatever he needs to get the reaction he desires.
He's no academic but he is intelligent and knows how to get what he wants, publicity/attention/reactions.
Personally I don't agree or disagree with him... I find the experience similar to watching any of Sacha Baron Cohen's characters.

I don’t agree with virtually anything he says, but I found myself defending his right to free speech last week with some of my female employees - they seem to think free speech should only be allowed if it conforms with their belief system. The “Feminism is cancer” remarks really riled them up.

He does not only appeal to the right but to Libertarians as he has described himself! His offensiveness is no more or less than the offensiveness that comes from the Left side of politics, he gives them as good as they give. A good explanation of Milo int his vid

Ive listened to alot of his stuff. Even though he is gay he is definitely liberterian, who promotes equal rights, freedom of speech and has a hatred of modern feminism and the so called alt-left with all their hipocracy. They hate him as he calls them out all the time and argues logically with them with evidence which they hate
