He's let himself go: Just two collared shirts DEEP RIFTS in the Rightwing Crazysphere, as Buzzfeed reveals Steve Bannon has allegedly cut all ties with former Breitbart tech editor and Reich whisperer Milo Yiannopoulos following that big Buzzfeed story
Is this like when Bannon was "fired" by the White House ("WINK WINK, NOD NOD")? Is Milo really finished? or just temporarily inconvenient, hence in need of a good, hard, turgid smoke-blowing?
Boy, the Rainbow Minstral Clown has NOT been having a good year. He got canned off the speaker circuit(by his OWN people, short-term memory Alt-wrong Neanderthals!), his book is the "Gigli" of self-aggrandizing literature (if Trump wants to send North Korea a bomb, he should use Milo's book) his rallies have been cancelled and even attention to his sham marriage (TomKat was more believable) was preempted by a deluge of real-life disasters that made the manufactured disaster of Milo's "Klu Klux Kamp" act look all the more hollow and nonessential.
To even notice that Milo exists (or Ann Coulter, for that matter) is the first step to normalized canoodling with demons. Bannon is only now measuring the weight of his guilt.
No what it actually came from was some Facebook post where someone posted "drop a selfie of your big boobies" someone posted that, and I thought it was hysterical.
Well, he rose to prominence with Gamergate so I think it's Not Your Shield in action. See, Not You Shield was a movement among women and minorities who agreed with Gamergate, essentially saying "You can't say these people are racist/misogynist/homophobic because I, a black person/woman/gay person say they are not! I am not going to be the shield you hide behind, you lying SJWs!" while, ironically, ignoring the fact that they were making themselves a shield for Gamergate to hide behind. It was a very weird movement.
A lot of women make their online presence this way by pandering to MRAs and such about how feminists really ARE awful evil manhaters and here's a woman who will totally back you up on everything so people can't call you sexist for saying it!
So I can see Milo making his living that way very easily. He uses his status as a gay man to shield his fans and collaborators from accusations of homophobia, while also acting like his status as a gay man should protect him from accusations of sexism, transphobia, racism, Islamaphobia, antisemitism, and so on.
Bannon looks like a huge gross carbuncle in human shape even when he dresses in a formal suit. (Maybe I'm not remembering aright, but I thought I saw a picture of him that way once.) A case of earning your outward appearance year by year? Or is he Dorian Grey in reverse?Oh. I'm totally shocked to learn Milo consorted with Nazis, too.
fortunately, nobody I know is outraged so I don't have to hear it up close and personal- I just get to see the online bawling and snicker
Sounds like a bad James Joyce novel. Or a good one.

Doktor Zoom, what the fuck do you have against artichokes? I adore them, tagliatelle or not.

Are they expecting fact-based reality to just seep in via osmosis?
A year older than me, and I still clean up nicer.
Seriously now. Would you, as an incumbent Republican Senator in an extremely red state, want to lose a primary to Chemtrail Kelli?
Put him in a convertible. With his ties, he could do an Isidore Duncan. (With votes)
The Republican base has fallen so far since her win that they'd have trouble writing in "Flake" without fucking it up.
Not a lot of money in that these days.
