Milo Yiannopoulos Is Starting a New, Ugly, For-Profit Troll Circus

Milo Yiannopoulos Is Starting a New, Ugly, For-Profit Troll Circus

Well Milo landed on his feet, I knew he would, he made alt-lite a hot brand and there’s no substitute for the original. $12 million to be producer-san of an alt-right celebrity factory and touring infrastructure.

Wouldn’t put too much emphasis on the “for-profit” thing, there might be a niche to be wedged open with Milo’s boldness and a Rolodex of reliable venues, security, lawyers, PR. More likely an ideological payload, the right’s been itching to rerun the ‘60s as the sexy youthful liberated bad boys for a while (anyone remember the libertarian culture jamming site Bureaucrash?) and the hottest thing on the right right now, anti-antifa, did grow out of his tour, after all.

All the funniest, smartest, most interesting young YouTubers and all the rest of them who hate feminism, who hate political correctness. This generation that’s coming up, it’s about 13, 14, 15, now have very different politics than most other generations. They love us.
Gotta say, that’s not that far off from the rumbles I’m picking up, the next generation’s lining up right for an 80s-style backlash.
