Analysis to Milo Yiannopoulos' Breitbart resignation & press conference

And 16.
Two men touched me in ways they should not have.
One of those men was a priest.
Show me on this pug where they touched you, Milo.
Show me right here on this real pug, Arnold the Puck.
Go and play, boy.
All right, so we just had the Milo press conference in response to the coordinated hit media storm that has cost him.
Man, what a reversal of fortune.
In 24 hours, his life turned completely upside down.
The ancient Stoics wrote about this, how your fortune can reverse Seneca, Cicero, how it can reverse in a day.
And we're seeing it with Milo.
So I want to go over what this means, what the press conference means, and some comments.
I'm not too happy with how everyone has been responding to this.
So the first thing I want to say, as you saw in that clip, Milo went the victim angle.
Here's the problem with that.
If you're a dissident, you can't play the victim.
You just can't.
It doesn't work.
The reason is because as a dissident, you're seen as the aggressor that is trying to take the establishment down.
You're seen as powerful.
You're seen as more intelligent.
You're seen as a person who has risen to the top thanks to your merit.
And because of that, you can take down these evil forces, these bloated bureaucracies, and so on.
So you cannot also play the victim at the same time.
You either are the aggressor.
You either are on the offense or you become a part of the mainstream.
You become a part of their victim complex.
So the one complaint I have over the Milo conference is you can't play the victim.
You are not allowed to.
I actually tried to do that once.
Once in my life, I tried to play the victim when they dox my family.
You think that that is a good time to play the victim.
And I sent a tweet out.
In that tweet, I said, anonymous docs my family's address.
Whatever I've done in life, they don't deserve to be harassed or harmed.
Now, that's not a bad statement, but it doesn't mesh.
It doesn't work because you're seen as stronger than the establishment.
You can never play the victim card.
If you're a dissident, you can't do it.
Even if they come to my house and stab me right now and stab my pug, right now, I still can't play the victim.
You always have to be the happy warrior who just takes the blows as they come, but keeps on going, keeps on being strong.
You smile.
When they stab you, you smile.
When they knock you down, you get up and you joke that the punch wasn't that hard anyway.
So when you're a dissident, you cannot play the victim.
That's the one thing you have to give up.
I would like to restate my disgust at adults who sexually abuse minors.
I'm horrified by pedophilia, and I have devoted large portions of my career to exposing child abusers.
I've exposed three of them in my reporting, which is three more than most of my critics.
I'm implacably opposed to the normalization of pedophilia, and I will continue to report and speak accordingly.
To repeat, I do not support child abuse.
It is absurd that his words are being treated like a criminal conviction.
I mean, he is just looking like a beaten man that is about to be sent to the gallows, about to be hanged.
And this is his statement, his parting, his parting statement before he gets freaking hanged.
And the thing is, all he did was speak about bad things.
He spoke about relationships between boys and men.
Yeah, that's a horrible thing.
I don't condone.
I don't condone.
I don't approve.
But he only spoke about it.
He didn't say he molested boys.
He didn't say that he's a participant in pedophilia.
He didn't say that.
He just said what he thinks, he said what his opinion is.
So this is how bad it's got, it's gotten where you can't even state your opinion.
You're not allowed.
Because if your opinion is wrong, I mean, has anything really changed?
You know, Trump won, but here we are.
We're still having, we lose our livelihoods because of an opinion, not because of action, because of words.
It makes me wonder how much progress the dissident movement has really made if they're doing this to Milo.
Another sign about how bad it's getting to defend people with the wrong opinions is that when you want to show support for Milo, you have to say, I don't support pedophilia, but Milo so-and-so.
I don't support rape, but Roosh makes this point.
I don't support a serial killer who is locking sex slaves in the dungeons, but so-and-so.
You know, it's crazy how you have to state something that should be common sense.
Just because you are complimenting someone, just because you are telling or saying someone doesn't deserve to have their life ruined, their family doxed, their book deal gone, their job gone, just because you don't support that.
You have to make a claim that you don't defend rape and pedophilia and murder and all this.
It's crazy.
You know, why one opinion doesn't make a person?
Two opinions doesn't make a person.
It's sad that we're at the point where you have to make a disclaimer just to say that I don't believe this person should be beaten down the way he is.
The third point I wanted to make is where is Donald Trump?
Now, when there was that Berkeley riot, Donald Trump made a tweet saying that he doesn't support riots, which was okay, but where is he?
Does Donald Trump realize that they're going to play whack-a-mole games with every one of his main supporters?
Does he understand that?
Does he understand that if in four years when he wants to run for reelection, that there's going to be none of us left, that we're going to be no platformed, we're going to be shamed and exiled or killed?
I mean, there's not going to be anyone to support him left.
So I hope he understands that I know he's going through some tough times.
I know that he has his hands full, but he has the power of the state.
He has the military.
He has secret service.
He is probably has a very large sympathetic segment in State Department, FBI, CIA, NSA.
We need his help.
We can't fight these people.
We can't fight the globalist establishment on our own.
Where is he?
Because, I mean, there's not going to be any of us left to help him keep his power.
I mean, that's why we put him into office.
We put him into office so that we don't have to deal with this shit, but we're still dealing with it.
Where is he?
What is he saying?
Where's his tweets?
Okay, it's fun to watch him fight back against the media, the very fake news, but we need help too.
Where is he?
I mean, I don't need help right now.
I don't.
But Milo did a lot of work to get people to vote for him.
You know, he is personally responsible for his college tour for tens of thousands of young votes, critical votes.
Where is Trump now?
You know, and one of the arguments I used for Trump to be elected is that these attacks against us would stop.
That because Trump was at the head, he's at the head of the big snake, that this would stop.
Boy, was I wrong.
Because their attacks are still going on.
They're going on.
I mean, maybe they're getting even worse that he won.
We need his damn help.
Because let me ask you this.
If Hillary Clinton won, would we be in a worser position?
It's the same shit.
We wouldn't be in a different position at all.
Trump hasn't helped us yet.
Again, I'm not asking him for help.
He doesn't owe me anything.
Trump doesn't owe me anything.
But if he wants support, if he wants to have some support, if he wants to have a chance of getting re-elected, he needs to help us at some point.
And until he does, I mean, they're just going to knock us down one at a time, like I knock down trees when I get my axe in this shirt and go knock down force outside.
The fourth thing I want to talk about is Richard Spencer.
Now, who is Richard Spencer?
He, you probably know from that meme of him getting punched in the face on the streets of Washington, D.C.
It's Pepe's become kind of a symbol.
He kind of got big through Heilgate.
And let's see a video of that.
Hail our people.
Hail victory.
So he didn't do a Nazi salute, but his fans did.
Anyway, the media attacked him in the way that the media does.
Okay, now I backed him up.
I backed him up because I saw what the media was doing.
He made a mistake, you know, but he didn't harm anyone.
Again, it's just words.
There was no actions.
No one was harmed.
No Jews were put in ovens or killed.
So I came out with an article saying I do not disavow Richard Spencer.
And in that article, I said, quote, I will not be making disavowals of anyone, no matter how reprehensible their speech, because I will not help my true enemy, the establishment, attack my neighbor.
We must not lose sight that Spencer is not our enemy, not yet anyway, and to proceed accordingly.
I also sent him an email.
I said, Richard, if you need help, let me know.
Because again, I was beaten down.
The establishment got me.
And I see a man who's also beaten down using the same tactics.
And if he needs help, even though I don't agree with him, I don't agree with what he did.
But that doesn't mean I can't offer a lending hand if he needs me in some way.
I also sent an email to Milo.
I said, Milo, if you need help, I will help you.
If the establishment attacks Vox Day, Mike Cernovich, Gavin McInnes, or anyone else, I will help them.
Because just because they make a mistake, maybe, doesn't mean that I'm going to throw them under the bus.
So I was very disappointed with how Richard Spencer has reacted to the Milo scandal.
On Twitter, he has proceeded to have some kind of meltdown and is attacking Milo with more fury than the media.
Okay, here he is, just finished a video uploading now.
The guy is totally done.
No sane person will defend him.
Then I must be insane, right?
Would you let your son go with Milo on his dangerous faggot tour?
So here we have an appeal to your emotions, trying to pull at your heartstrings.
Will Breitbart condone boy buggery?
Now, again, Milo didn't encourage any man to bugger boys, but this is how Richard is framing it.
I was probably friendlier towards the alt-right than anyone, but at the end of the day, they're trash.
And Milo is now irrelevant.
He channeled troll culture in the alt-right.
That's over.
And thus, he's over.
It's not like he's a deep thinker.
Okay, I guess we know what his insecurities are.
He wants to be seen as a deep thinker.
Milo clearly was not joking in those videos.
He's never even claimed he was joking.
Now, When I offer aid to Richard, I don't expect anything back from him.
He doesn't owe me anything.
And if he's watching right now, you don't owe me anything.
Nothing.
I did that because I wanted to lend help to someone I saw that was getting beaten down.
Now, I don't think if Richard doesn't support Milo, that's fine.
But can you just turn off your Twitter for one day?
Can you just shut up for one day, man?
Because right now you are basically helping the media.
You're helping the same people that went after your mother, that went after you.
What are you thinking, man?
Do you think that they're going to give you a pat on the head?
That's a good boy.
That's a good boy, Richard, for denouncing one person that we also hate.
So, I mean, I'm kind of disappointed.
It's in poor form.
And again, Richard can do whatever he wants, but to really punch down like that in the worst day of Milo's life in such an emotional, unhinged way, I'm very surprised that he has forgotten what he just went through.
Doesn't he know what it's like to be beaten down?
Is he really using a man's worst day to exert his superiority to help his brand name?
I mean, I'm just, I think he needs to do some thinking carefully about what he wants to do in the sense of, do I want to help the establishment?
Because that's what he's doing right now.
The same establishment that hates his guts, that has calling him a Nazi, that has basically branded him as a Nazi, and he's going to be known for that for the rest of his life.
He is helping them right now.
But I would be wrong to allow my poor choice of words to detract from my colleague's important job, which is why today I'm resigning from Breitbart Effective immediately.
Good riddance.
I mean, he has outgrown Breitbart.
I don't even understand why he was still working there anyway.
He has hundreds of thousands of fans.
If anything, Breitbart was holding him back.
Now, I understand that he was using Breitbart to propel himself, but he has propelled himself beyond Breitbart.
I think if you look at the Google trends, Milo actually is higher searched, more searched than Breitbart itself.
As for Breitbart, I don't think they needed him either.
You know, again, this was a weird pairing.
I don't understand it.
You know, he wasn't really conservative in my opinion.
People say he's a libertarian or this or that.
But I think it's good.
It's a good thing.
Let them go their own way.
Breitbart is going to really double down on their anti-Islam, anti-social justice and anti-feminism angle, which is fine.
But I believe they're going to get more Zionist in the next couple of years.
They're going to be more supportive of Israel.
The JQ Jewish question is not going to be seen there.
And for better or worse, at least we need an outlet that can tell us the truth on what's going on with the Muslim migration and things such as that.
This is the best outcome for him.
He needs to go into being a general entertainer, someone who speaks to everyone and makes them feel good.
He needs to be someone who brings joy to people's lives during a turbulent time in human history.
That's what he needs to do.
He doesn't need to be a conservative.
He doesn't need to be a leftist.
He doesn't need to be a libertarian.
He just needs to be himself and entertain people, bring them joy, make them understand what is going on in the world today, whatever politics that is.
I mean, of course, I don't want him to become a social justice warrior, but I think that's the best outcome for him because it frees him.
It liberates him from having this constrained ideology that is kind of controlled by his previous employer.
So this is the best deal.
And he already has the fans for it.
He also stated that he is going to publish his book anyway.
He's going to, I think, self-publish it, which is good.
So we're still going to be able to read what he has to say.
I think the book is going to be a little bit gay.
It's going to talk about his upbringing and stuff like that.
So I don't know if I'll read it, but what he needs to do is realign his expectations.
Because up to this point, his goal was to be famous, mainstream celebrity famous.
I mean, him appearing on the Bill Mauer, how can I say that?
Bill Meyer, Bill Maurer show was basically the peak that he's going to get.
I don't think he's going to reach that peak again.
He needs to realign his expectations.
And look, that's probably a good thing because to be a celebrity in this day and age means you need to be controlled.
You need to be thoroughly controlled so that you can be protected by them, by the controllers.
So I think for him, in terms of his freedom to say and do what he wants, this is a better outcome because to be famous is essentially to be completely handled.
You have several handlers that say what you can do and what you can say how to live.
You're basically in a jail, but you're supposed to smile at people watching you.
You're supposed to be happy that you're famous and all that stuff.
But I think for him, this is a blessing in disguise and he doesn't even know it yet because he's going through a rough time right now.
And I can understand this was the worst 24 hours of his life.
So that's what I have to say about that.
I think this story has passed its peak in the sense of the excitement that it's giving.
But if you are new to the story, I definitely recommend you check my Milo scandal video, which I'll link in the comments below.
Check out that.
And I really wish Milo the best of luck.
I really do.
I mean, again, I don't agree with what he said.
I don't agree with pairing older men and young boys for coming of age relationships.
I don't support that.
Just like how I don't support 13-year-old girls getting with older men.
You know, I don't support that either.
But at the same time, these were just opinions.
These were just comments.
These were just words.
And we don't have to agree with everything a person says.
Just because he says a bad opinion doesn't mean he's an evil person who is doing that, who's actively advocating and doing for that.
So you don't have to defend the opinions of someone to overall believe that they are a person worth associating with on some level or at least defending as a human being.
So I hope you enjoy this video.
That's all I have for today.
And from me and from Arnold, my pug, who is somewhere, I think he's scampering around.
