About
Milo Yiannopoulos is a right-wing extremist commentator known for concern trolling about "free speech" when his pro-speech-suppression, anti-academic views are not welcomed at educational institutions. He writes for the far-right Breitbart News.
It is not known at this time how he reconciles his self-identified homosexuality and his support for the Right, which typically stands in strong (and sometimes violent) opposition to LGBT rights.
Quotes
I do like offending people. I think that the grievance brigade, victimhood, you know the idea that hurt feelings are some kind of special currency, I think that’s come to an end, and America agrees.
