Milo/UC Berkley protestors stop 'hate speech' by using violence and hate...

Have you read the film review he wrote?
Did you even know that's what he wrote? Or did you just unthinkingly believe the claims that he's responsible for things other people write?
What makes you think that he didn't think any or all of the things he wrote in the film review? That was your position - that he says and writes things he doesn't think are true.
False. The fight back against fascism is not fascist.
Man of Honour
The rest of that comment from him ("every gets hatemail FFS") gives context, even in the artificially extremely restricted medium of Twitter. He probably gets a lot more abuse every day than she did and he certainly gets it for much longer and in a much more organised way and he's at some risk of being assaulted or killed by "liberals". But he doesn't use it to gain power in the same way that she did. So in context, his criticism of her is rather less "out of order" than it might seem when taken out of context.
Man of Honour
But the ideology you're promoting is rather fascist. It's authoritarian. It's wholly founded on biological group identity and the irrational prejudice which comes from that. It's deeply committed to using violence and intimidation as tools to gain power. It's facist.
You're not fighting back against facism. That's just a flimsy excuse, which is par for the course for an ideology of irrational prejudices and violence. The Nazis, for example, claimed to be fighting back against communism when it was politically useful for them to make that claim.
I wasn't referencing his film review at all. I was referencing his wading in on the twitter abuse she was getting by simply telling her to stop being a victim. That was rude and out of order. That is it. I know full well he wasnt involved in the actual abuse.
You keep imagining things and putting words in my mouth though if you want..
It was still unnecessary, rude and provocative. Is that what a decent person who sees someone being racially abused does? Just tells them to stop being a victim and calls them out on a grammar mistake?

Ok "money" was an anolgy for fame and fortune.
Not strictly a large bank balance.
They tend to come hand in hand in media.

I replied to a post you made.
In that post you posted a link to an article about the film review he wrote, in which he was very disparaging about the film, including the acting in general and including the acting of that particular actor. You then said he was being rude to that actor. You did not at any point state that you thought the article you linked to was irrelevant to the post you made in which you linked to that article and cited it as an example of something Milo did that you disagree with. Obvously you thought it was very relevant, since you chose to link to it as an example.
He was blamed for the abuse by other people. That's why Twitter banned him. The article you linked to referred to that.
I didn't imagine anything. I didn't put words in your mouth.
Now I am saying you are imagining things and putting words in my mouth. I was able to explain that I was not doing so to you. Now you can try to explain that you aren't doing so to me. Or not. I can't make you defend your position.
What on earth?
I suggest you take a step back as you are overthinking things.
I was asked to give an example of something he has said/done that i didnt agree with.
I then linked to an article about how he got caught up in that twitter story by making rude , unnecessary and provocative tweets regarding the racial abuse that the woman was getting.
That is all there is to it. : /
That is my position and it doesnt need defending.
I don't really know what your position on this even is.

again so why waste time doing universitys where he gets pretty much no exposure (papers report the protests but never really mention his name) if he wants fame tere's much better markets
I don't think he made any racial abuse. he did point out though that rather than being a smart female role model her character was basically "stereotypical dumb black person" that should have disappeared long ago
I know he didn't! Where did i say he did?
I was referencing the unnecessary twitter comments obviously. If i was just talking about the film review i would have just linked to that and not to a story about him being banned from twitter..

But this thread has noting to do with fascists, then again the antifa demonstrators are pretty close to being facist themselves, certainly rather illiberal, authoritarian and happy to use violence against political opponents. The black bloc outfit is basically a political uniform.
Ones sides supporters believe in white supremacy, violence and give Nazi salutes, the other side is violent, and the only thing you can think is "political violence = Nazi"

You seem to be confusing different events, the thread is about Milo a gay guy with Jewish heritage who has confessed numerous times to loving black ****. While he's libertarian and offensive I'm pretty sure he's not a white supremacist.
You've then put up a picture of some completely different person at a completely different event where some Nazi salutes were made.
So back to reality, one side is a bit un-pc and 'offends' people the other side are authoritarian and use violence against people they oppose politically. Yes, again, the antifa 'protestors' who were beating people up more closely resemble Nazis than the student Republicans and others who wanted to go see Milo.
