I agree. He's annoying as ****. But I don't like how Dalamon and many on the left are quick to label anyone who deviates from their worldview as a bigot. Sorry Dala, love ya, but I don't agree with you on this.

I don't think it's true. I blast neolibs constantly, and think their views differ strongly from mine-- but I don't consider them to be bigots. Exhibit A, John Oliver. Obviously not a bigot-- obviously his worldview differs from mine.

Anyone who looks at the sewage that Milo says, and *doesn't* consider him to be a bigot is simply stupid. Bill Maher isn't much better, referring to trans as "weird ppl" on TV.

Nah, lots of people say mean things about Bernie-- Bernie isn't perfect.
I just think he's shown a unique acumen to get to the bottom of some pretty important issues through his show-- and when it came to the Democratic Party, and Hillary, and the policies of many Dems, he simply blew it. Completely blew it, and continues to blow it. His show just became a bash-Trump & go-Hillary coronation, without diving into how the Democrats have let America down (a reality that NO one confronts), but why Trump isn't the answer.

That would be a lot more substantive than what he's been doing.

Of course, and that does make a difference, but should it account for a 20% rise?
There was a graph linked in a recent Vox article I would have cited, but it was from 97-01, so practically useless. Don't even know why they used it. I'm driving and my phone is on the fritz, but I'll come back with data.

The changing of criteria of what deems sexual assault? Umm yeah, it would account for a *much* larger rise.
Here's a source from a Swedish law professor
This has all been continuously expanded over the past two decades.
This source shows how exposure in sexual assault for the population hasn't changed since 2006, despite the higher number of reported sexual crimes: https://www.bra.se/download/18.5e2a4a6b14ab1667599108/1441722493456/2015_1_NTU_2014.pdf and https://www.bra.se/download/18.35c681d4143337cb6b29e9/1395068367808/2013_1_NTU_2013.pdf
He is out for ratings and entertainment. But that is what I watch for. I get my news from better places than a joke show that does a few "investigation" pieces. I like Samantha Bee's takes even less since she is pretty extreme but she is really funny and I enjoy her interviews. I tried to keep watching the Daily Show after the new host but it just isnt the same. I watch clips every now and then but it was a big drop off. I really wanted to be supportive and like him since he is from the same country as my wife, South Africa.

yeah right,
just how netherlands releaxed their hate crime laws.
my great-aunt got SHOVED by a refugee from who knows what hellhole she came from because she got no passport or did.
my great-aunt was hospitalized, and is now in a wheelchair for the rest of her live.
out of nowhere this refugee who was in this country for free. living of taxpayer dolars of my aunt, decided to go to macdonalds, to get a burger with money she got from taxpayer. and saw my greataunt there and realized she was a jew. so out of nowhere "refugee" shoved my greataunt and she fell, all witnessed by her jewish grandson.
and you go like aah don't be a *****, it was a lil shove, if that's so, whenever your 78, give me a call let me come shove you, see if you survive.
meanwhile after my greataunt was in hospital for a few weeks. we found out, that "refugee" is not getting charged for "HATE crime" that's not a problem since i think hate crimes are wrong and racist. but the "refugee" in question wont be charged for a crime at all. not deported. in fact she still gets free housing and a nice amount of cash.
so stuff like this YOU DO NOT SEE IN THE STATS.
fact of the matter is when a country is not progressing and is in a perpetual ****ty backwards state. it is no accident! it is because people make the bed they lay in.
and dont give me this is anecdotal CRAP. because this is not an isolated incident.
the mainstream media is not reporting on this. and they did not report on my aunt, even though we got the security footage.
so yeah, sooner or later you will see the sweden truth.
infarct i wont be surprised if mods infarct me for this post!
But Yiannopoulos does it to get people worked up, right? Progressives go CRAZY when someone suggests something as innocuous as questioning the common wisdom of the wage gap. So Yiannopoulos takes advantage of that by kicking it up a notch. I've listened to/read a lot of his **** first hand, and once you know how to filter out the trolling and the ego, you can find some insights in the pile of garbage. I also think the media's characterization of Milo and other "alt-right" figures is kind of a useless narrative between good and evil.
Does Yiannopoulos or Maher want society to restrict the rights of any of its citizens? Not really. They're both, understandably, weary of the how mainstream progressivism morphed into a movement that attempts to dictate what is acceptable for people to say or think. Maher is more serious, but Milo is a troll who simply sees how angry people get when you attack their worldviews, so he made a career out of it.

also even iff i was never gonna step foot in usa, or if i was not patriotic to israel. i am against the globalist UN agenda, UN wants to do like outlaw guns for every single civilian worldwide(something for now only USA can stop).
or agenda 2020(or whatever it is called now, since it changed names so many times) is also about taking freedom away. freedom of owning property etc etc
like it or not, if i vote or not in your election, it has a helluva impact on the rest of the world

actually that could be said as:
Does the left or the right want society to restrict the rights of any of its citizens? Not really.
both want the same thing a happily ever after! but the way to get there differs.
