Milo Yiannopoulos fired by conservative website The Daily Caller after one column

Source: Raw Story

“Alt right” provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos was fired by conservative website The Daily Caller after publishing a single column on the site’s opinion page, said The Hill on Saturday.

The Hill also confirmed on Saturday evening that The Daily Caller fired opinion editor Rob Mariani for his role in bringing the embattled Yiannopoulos on board.

Yiannopoulos announced on his Facebook page Saturday — he is banned for life from Twitter for his role in racist harassment campaigns and other trolling — that he was fired from a position at the Caller as a weekly columnist.

for a neo-Nazi who also advocates for pedophilia? Enough sick baggage for just about everyone across the spectrum to loathe.

<twisted BS right-wing fantasy-land logic>

If the Daily Caller doesn't like him, he's obviously REALLY a liberal mole ... out to make the good folk on the right look bad!!!

They think they're so CLEVER, these Lefties, but we've got 'em all figured out!

So HAPPY The Caller so quickly figured out the LEFTS CHEAP TRICKERY!!!

...without ever getting into why anyone whatsoever thought his opinion was worth so much as rancid spit in the first place.

the first couple of paragraphs trying to woo with his notion of cleverness were more than enough. I went over and got a short form from The Hill. What a toxic sewer of a mind.

And then I read the column he wrote.

Milo wasn't scraping the bottom of the barrel with that one. He scraped the bottom of the Marianas Trench. If this is what they call "the rehabilitation of Milo," euthanasia might be called for.

This guy is THE most arrogant narcissist I have ever seen or heard... ever... and that includes the orange one. Trump is stupid and uneducated. Yiannopoulos is extremely intelligent and ultra educated and he still chooses to be anti-reality. He chooses to place himself above all humanity and to lie, manipulate and murder all that is real just because he can. And he likes being that way.

Another true psychopath.
