He gets banned once a month. He'll be back.

supposedly it's permanent this time. one can only hope ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


I honestly don't even know what he did, but judging from his past bans I doubt he racially harassed anyone. Does somebody want to explain exactly what he did? Sorry to bother.

I take this to mean Twitter will soon ban the SJW's who like to doxx people right?

I guess while we're vaguely on the subject, could somebody also summarize this 'Gamergate' sh**tshow as well?  I tried to understand it one time, but gave up after I felt my brain cells and soul decaying.

Same here, though in my case I'm mostly afraid that learning about it will make me very angry. Sometimes ignorance is bliss.

Yeah that's pretty f***ed up. Milo specifically never racially harassed her though. He said a few bad things, but nothing racist. I don't see why he was banned, it should've been the people sending her racist sh*t.

Fck him.  I get that he's not meant to be taken seriously and that he's making a fortune off of making a joke of journalism and stuff... BUT THAT'S WHY HE'S SO TERRIBLE!  I don't give a sht about Gamergate and I can't get through even a summary of this "scandal" without frankly being bored to tears and progressively losing more and more faith in humanity.  Quit broadcasting these assholes and giving them money.  If you doc drop anyone for any reason, you should be banned from the site you're using it for if not prosecuted for invasion of privacy.  Mainstream journalism hasn't had an ounce of integrity to it since the 1960s, so even if Milo was working for a legitimate cause, it's clearly a failing one.  Give it a fcking rest - especially his fanboys.

Beat me to it! Cheesy

I actually also gave up on it at some point. But as far as I remember a woman created a game and was accused of having slept with game reviewers to get better reviews?

Then followed a shtstorm of misogyny, death threats, etc, etc.

I think the alt right are people who are fascists but not religious or something? But I haven't really gotten that one either.

I'd like to be able to name my kid Milo after my great-granfather, so I hope we are no longer on a first name basis with this jerk by that point.

The answer will be vague and yet terrifying at the same time.

He wrote a negative review of her film, and apparently she didn't like that.

Twitter's CEO Jack-off and his regressive left "Trust and Safety Committee" is pure garbage.  ISIS has a voice on Twitter but some the right gets shut down for some offensive comments.  Milo only called her a man, he didn't instigate anything.  He was trying to say "you're going to get flak as a celebrity, deal with it".  But racist Leslie Jones couldn't handle that.
