Maybe that's his kink? Some people love to be hated, for whatever reason. I remember when Milo Yiannopoulos was a thing.

Milo Yiannopoulos stopped being relevant in 2017 after a myriad of problems became clear to his former fans. He’s too catty, he makes poor financial decisions (he’d spend €20m in a day), he opposes gay marriage despite getting married to another man. Yes, I can agree to disagree with someone on gay marriage, even though I support it, but I cannot wrap my head around someone who’s against gay marriage going out of his way to marry another man. But what really damaged him was that clip where he suggested lowering the age of consent to 13. Yeah, how about keeping it at 16 or 17?

Now Milo is pretending to be straight. I frankly don’t believe it. Again, it’s another failed attempt at gaining back relevancy, this time with conservative evangelical Christians. Whom ironically don’t even care about homosexuality as much as they used to, and probably don’t like being lied to. I bet his husband left him because he got fed up with Milo's irresponsible financial habits, and so Milo pretended to be straight out of bitterness.

FYI... not sure if you're already aware, but I remember I went back and watched that video interview where he talked about kids being able to consent. That quote was actually in the context of him describing how a priest did sex acts with him when he was a young teenager. The interviewer was like, "Uh, whoa Milo, that's sexual abuse!" and Milo was like, "No, of course it wasn't, of course I consented, I was a kid, I was asking for it obviously" and the interviewer was like, "Kids can't consent" and Milo was like "Yes they can" and well, you know the rest.

I point that out because that is an incredibly relevant piece of context... yet of course the way the quote was reported conveniently neglected that information! News outlets were happy to frame him as a predator. I am no fan of Milo, but with that context, it sounded to me like he was trying to rationalize away the sexual abuse that happened to him as a kid, not talk about how hot he thinks kids are. That doesn't make his p*dophilia-enabling comments any less harmful, but I think it says something about his motivations.

u/throwaway5722 pinging in case you were curious, since you both were talking about Milo.

I appreciate the context, but if he said anything that even remotely excuses pedophilia, he deserves [REDACTED]. I take that sort of thing very seriously.

I think Milo suffers from the same thing most trans people do; A deep-seated psychological problem that they refuse to address. I don't know what, exactly, but these people are clearly running from something.

Also, why do they always turn out to be pedophiles? It can't be a coincidence.

Thankfully, Milo hasn’t transitioned. At least not yet. Maybe he has psychological problems, but he also craves attention. Which admittedly is a symptom of a psychological problem.
