I didn't say *you* did... I posted a standalone comment in a thread titled "Alt-right hero Milo Yiannopoulos: child molestation is great for the young guys", and iterated in my 2nd post that I don't believe you think that, before going on to a general observation. You don't think the thread title involves any spin? You don't think the whole furore is as a result of any spin? You kinda flip-flop here (or at least, aren't coming over very clearly, at least to me), as you state in that quote you don't think he is advocating pedophilia (I knew you didn't anyway), but also ask 'where's the spin?' when I posit that this whole drama is based on it.

I did, which is why I explicitly stated: "...about his personal experience"

I agree, and stated "If people can't see the context of that exchange" in regards to exactly what you just said.

So to be clear; you don't think Milo is advocating pedophilia - what is it then he is guilty of in this exchange?

So I'm clear: I agree with a lot of what he says/does, and disagree strongly with plenty, don't take this as some kind of saving-my-hero situation.

I guess I'm just equal parts bored/fascinated with the way people are so easily manipulated, in a wide range of matters. Like I said in another thread, if I had a slightly different moral compass I'd be all over this type of shit, seems pretty lucrative.
