Somebody needs to be famous again.

I'm reading "Activist Milo Yiannopoulos is now ‘Ex-Gay,’ consecrating his life to St. Joseph/‘Secular attempts at recovery from sin are either temporary or completely ineffective. Salvation can only be achieved through devotion to Christ and the works of the Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church'" (LifeSite). 

Milo: When I used to kid that I only became gay to torment my mother, I wasn’t entirely joking. Of course, I was never wholly at home in the gay lifestyle — Who is? Who could be? — and only leaned heavily into it in public because it drove liberals crazy to see a handsome, charismatic, intelligent gay man riotously celebrating conservative principles. That’s not to say I didn’t throw myself enthusiastically into degeneracy of all kinds in my private life. I suppose I felt that’s all I deserved. I’d love to say it was all an act, and I’ve been straight this whole time, but even I don’t have that kind of commitment to performance art. Talk about method acting.…

[T]he more love and the less lust in us, the more we cease to obscure Christ and instead reveal Him, in whose image we are made. I don’t mean to suggest it’s been easy, just simple: Our Lord endured worse than any of us and promised us that we have to take up a heavy cross each day.... Secular attempts at recovery from sin are either temporary or completely ineffective. Salvation can only be achieved through devotion to Christ and the works of the Holy, Catholic and Apostolic Church. St. Joseph is the spiritual father figure of the Holy Family. In this time of gender madness, devoting myself to the male protector of the infant Jesus is an act of faith in God’s Holy Patriarch, and a rejection of the Terror of transsexuals. Trannies are demonic: They are the Galli, the castrated priests of Cybele, the Magna mater, whom Augustine saw dancing in the streets of Carthage dressed like women.... 

Over the next decade, I would like to help rehabilitate what the media calls “conversion therapy.” It does work, albeit not for everybody....

I'll let you vote on this one:

'Choosing' or not 'choosing' to be gay is the least of that guy's problems.

Caroline म्हणाले...

If he is consecrating his life to St Joseph, terror of demons and protector of the family, he is returning to his Catholic roots, I guess. Also, Pope Francis has declared this the year of St Joseph. Good time to call upon him as a powerful intercessor. Let’s just wish him peace and good.

I hope that whatever happens Milo can find some peace and happiness. I think he has a lot of personal issues that he hasn't addressed. Hopefully he can use his obviously high intelligence for a good cause.

I voted for "a mediocrity" but considered "he was always awful" because he not mediocre at getting attention. It's difficult for me to see how conversion therapy could in any way be a real thing. You can steel yourself to accept a life of self-denial and maybe trick some poor woman into joining your bad trip, but you want what you want. A gay person can no more convert to straight than a straight person can convert to gay.

Mike Sylwester म्हणाले...

I used to own a book that was written in the 1950s by a psychiatrist who specialized in treating male homosexuals. I read it and then donated it to a library book sale. Since then, I have regretted that I did not keep it.

I probably never will find such a book again, because it made a lot of arguments about male homosexuality that no longer can be made.

I remember two particular arguments (there certainly were more arguments) that the book made.

1) Male homosexuality is caused largely by the experience of growing up in a family where the mother is controlling and the father is emotionally or physically absent.

2) Male homosexuality can be cured by psychiatric therapy.

It's my understanding that both arguments were the common wisdom in the 1950s. Since then, they have become forbidden.

When I read the book, I was surprised by how well those two arguments were supported by serious research and study. The book was quite scholarly, including many footnotes, statistics and case studies.

In particular, the book provided many case studies of male homosexuals who had been able, with the help of psychiatric therapy, to become heterosexual, to marry women, and to remain rather well-adjusted.

"The public pressure to be gay and the perks showered on you by the schools and employers for being gay are intense."

That was not Milo's problem.

Milo's problem was his addiction to big, black cock.

Milo isn't shy : )

Sounds like he's somewhere in between and it's ruled his entire life. Perhaps doing something like joining a monastery for a while will give him some peace. But whatever he does won't work if he tries to chronicle it through social media.

Well, I mean, no matter your orientation or who you are married to, your spouse is probably not the person in the world to whom you are most sexually attracted. Sure, who couldn't fantasize about a fling with Monroe or Fabio or whoever, but you weighed up the factors, made your choice and swore that the fantasies would stay fantasies.

jeremyabrams म्हणाले...

This same kind of tension was central to Little Richard and his creativity, so, fine with me.

Sebastian म्हणाले...

"I was never wholly at home in the gay lifestyle — Who is? Who could be?"

I had a sense of cognitive dissonance even back when he flaunted his gayness while talking semi-conservative.

"only leaned heavily into it in public because it drove liberals crazy to see a handsome, charismatic, intelligent gay man riotously celebrating conservative principles."

But in fact his conservatism was mainly anti-leftism. Which is better than nothing, and even his relatively mild apostasy did drive progs crazy.

"That’s not to say I didn’t throw myself enthusiastically into degeneracy of all kinds"

So, apart from January 6 as the zenith of white-supremacist degeneracy, is it still possible to talk about degeneracy in the age of rap and transgenderism and Carli B? Can the question even be asked "who could be" at home in the "gay lifestyle"?

Lucid-Ideas म्हणाले...

@Churchy LaFemme

"Sure, who couldn't fantasize about a fling with Monroe or Fabio or whoever, but you weighed up the factors, made your choice and swore that the fantasies would stay fantasies."

Embrace the word "and". Sometimes, if you're really really lucky, you can make the right choice and get a woman who likes what you like.

Saying that Milo is an attention whore is like saying 1 + 1 = 2. As to whether or not he's serious or that he can really pray away his gay or whatever, I haven't the faintest idea.

Lurker21 म्हणाले...

Good for him if it's true, but these conversions have a way of not working, and when that comes to light there's a lot of bad publicity. "Ex-gays" hang out together, working on the ex-gay thing, and that often leads to more gayness. I didn't understand why, when they left that "lifestyle" behind, they didn't leave that "lifestyle" behind.

The idea that male homosexuality was all mom's fault was common in the middle of the last century, but it was gradually replaced by the idea that absent, rejecting, or "shadowy," emotionally distant fathers were at fault. Nowadays, many young people find out that they are homosexual without having gone through traumas. The old taboos aren't in play and at some point they find themselves more attracted to their own sex than to the other and they go with that, rather than assume it's just a phase.

"Aesthetic realism" claimed to be able to "cure" homosexuality fifty years ago. They dropped that claim in the Nineties, but are still around and labeled a cult.

Mike Sylwester म्हणाले...

Elaborating on my earlier comment (9:44)
----------------------------------------

I suppose that some portion of male homosexuals would agree with a diagnosis that they grew up with a controlling mother and an emotionally or physically absent father.

Perhaps that experience caused their homosexuality or perhaps it did not. No matter, that explanation seems plausible to some male homosexuals.

In such cases, psychiatric therapy might indeed be effective, because that explanation enables those particular homosexuals to reason themselves into changing.

Once a person understands -- or at least thinks he understands -- the cause of his disorder, then he might be able to think himself into an effective mental adjustment.

======

It's essentially similar to a person who comes to understand that he was born homosexual and then uses that understanding to adjust himself to living openly as a homosexual.

Likewise, a person who comes to understand that his childhood family experience caused him to become homosexual might be able to use that understanding to adjust himself mentally into living as a heterosexual.

Gabriel म्हणाले...

There's "being gay", and there's "men having sex with men".

There are and have been cultures in the world where the first is unheard of and the second is quite common.*

There are subcultures in the US where a man who has sex with men will beat the hell out of you if you call him "gay".

If you've ever read Ryan Holliday's Trust Me, I'm Lying, then you knew the day would come when Milo came out as ex-gay. This is the redemption chapter in the story arc.

Apparently, Milo has come to think that he became homosexual because of the parental-child dynamics during his childhood.

When I read the book that I described above, I was impressed by the many case studies in which male homosexuals told about growing up with controlling mothers and absent fathers. There were clearly many case studies that clearly fit that pattern. (Of course, many homosexuals do not fit that pattern.)

I think it's quite plausible that such family dynamics does cause, in some young boys, confusion about gender roles and does eventually cause homosexuality. I think that it's further plausible that psychiatric therapy might enable those particular male homosexuals to understand the cause of their disorder and thus to change their thinking.

Milo seems to have come to a better understanding about his own relationship with his mother and seems to have adopted St. Joseph as his new paternal role-model. In other words, he has been thinking through his childhood family dynamics and thus has been rethinking his own sexual identity.

That is not an easy process, and he might not succeed in becoming heterosexual. However, his thinking and effort are reasonable.

daskol म्हणाले...

I enjoy him because of how good he is at pissing off annoying people. He's a national treasure, although this turn must be tough on his boyfriend.

Lurker21 म्हणाले...

You don't see that many of the domineering, overbearing, "castrating" mothers who were such a staple of postwar American culture (today's Karens terrify outsiders, but they don't dominate their sons in the way some mothers used to), and even the fathers try not to be distant and rejecting, yet we have more homosexuals than ever (or so it seems). It's easier to be gay now, so young people don't need to have gone through the old psychodynamics.

Plus, it doesn't look like there's one main reason for homosexuality. It some people homosexuality might be innate (not necessarily genetic, but related to prenatal conditions and experiences). In others it might be overdetermined by family relationships. Or it might be the result of childhood molestation or even a habit or choice. In the future, though, I suspect only people who have declared themselves to be LGBTQ+ themselves will be allowed to speculate about this.

I'd encourage people to read the whole article, rather than just the quote here, in which Milo's glibness may be misleading. His views are a lot more nuanced than many here are giving him credit for.

The big lie that society tells is is that homosexual desires are an *identity*. They are not. They are a *passion*, and none of our passions should define us.

Nice try by Milo, but he should know that gays have outlived their usefulness and are yesterday's news. He should've come out as trans and resurrected Andy Kaufman's wrestling women bit and legally changed his name to "Inter-Gender Wrestling Champion of the World."


p.s. I've known a lot of Milo types before. They're all about being "GAY!" and shoving their homosexuality in everybody's face while praying for a reaction. John Mahoney played a patriarchal figure in the 2000 gay film The Broken Hearts Club: A Romantic Comedy. His character delivers my favorite piece of dialogue from the film:

"Sometimes I wonder what you boys would do if you weren't gay. You'd have no identity. It was easy when you couldn't talk about it. Now it's all you talk about. You talk about it so much that you forget about all the other things that you are."

stevew म्हणाले...

None of the above. Given his public history I find it difficult to believe Milo is sincere. This all seems like a new angle to express his contrariness and be provocative. If he is sincere I wish him well. He will surely be attacked and vilified by all the wokesters.

johns म्हणाले...

I couldn't choose a survey response because I don't accept the premise, i.e. that Milo is "back." All I see is an interview in a fairly obscure religious site. Is there more? Has he achieved great publicity, or is it just that Instapundit, Ann and some others have picked up this interview?

Paddy O म्हणाले...

Blair @11:12, spot on.

I can't gauge sincerity, but in todays world there's a lot of ways to get fame and recover fame that is fleeting. Madonna is an expert at this. But her use of that name doesn't at all reflect the source material.

What Milo is saying here really does seem to reflect a substantive Christian ethic on sexuality, and while motives are very rarely pure, that he is making use of this particular path suggests a kind of authenticity behind it. He's like the crass, media-driven version of Henri Nouwen--who likewise turned his passions to a different direction, empowering his identity and contributing to the lives of others a lot more than sexuality could ever come near to.

Lucid-Ideas म्हणाले...

@Rosalyn C.

"I fully expect that Milo’s next announcement will be a diagnosis of bipolar disorder and a sincere apology to his husband."

Now this is a comment that's on the right track. He'll get attention for choosing to pray his gay away, and then later he'll choose to say he loves being gay and regrets the days he wasn't gay.

Anything to keep him ensconced in attention.

Note the difference in summaries:

Example #1 "'I went to human resources, and I said, "I just really - I need help,"' says Meghan, adding that her request was denied since she is not a 'paid employee of the institution.'"

Example #2 "Somebody needs to be famous again."

If I were a left winger I'd claim this shows Althouse places feminism over gayness. But I suspect it's more that she soft-sells criticism of Markle because the resulting accusations of racism aren't worth the trouble.

Subtract the word "gay" out of this and MY's spiritual journey is pretty much a oft-told tale in the history of Catholic spirituality -i.e. sinful rotter finds grace & lives on the straight and narrow. The most famous example is, of course, St. Augustine & the Confessions, but St. Anselm also comes to mind.

"needs to be famous again" --- Oh, sure, that's why he's giving an interview to LifeSite, which is read by basically no one who isn't dyed-in-the-wool believing Catholic. Wake me up when he's interviewed by Access Hollywood.

What? Do you people not think that Augustine's "Our hearts are restless until they rest in Thee" doesn't apply to the faggots, too? All of us have souls that make it or not by the help of God's grace -- gay, straight, or whatever.

J. Farmer म्हणाले...

@Blair:

The big lie that society tells is is that homosexual desires are an *identity*. They are not. They are a *passion*, and none of our passions should define us.

I take your point, but the identity aspect to homosexuality isn't so much about same-sex desire as it is about a shared social experience as sexual minorities. For example, a straight person can't understand the process of "coming out" or what it means to be a sexual minority. It's these sort of shared experiences that makes being gay a kind of group identity.

bonkti म्हणाले...

I don't think the poll choices offer compelling choices, at least if one views Milo with compassion.

I'm surprised to hear this. I mean this was something that sticks in my memory about Milo. Every time he said anything he had to accompany that with an aggressive message about his gayness even if it had little to do with the real subject.

This is quite a turn-about and I'm not sure I know quite what to think about it.

But I have the feeling that if I lived long enough and paid closer to attention to how people worked I might be able to see these things coming.

Scott म्हणाले...

Is it wrong to laugh at someone else's passions? It's amusing and even touching to see social conservatives futilely pursue the nature vs nurture arguments in comments like these, as if it somehow mattered. It doesn't. No matter who "wins," I'll still be gay.

@Fernandinande:

The Matthew Shepard murder, horrific as it was, was not a homophobic hate crime. It was basically a meth deal gone bad. Shepherd was a thoroughly victimized human being but not by anti-gay bigotry. He was a drug-addicted, exploited young man being pimped out for older gay men to use as a rentboy. Even in death he's been exploited as a martyr.

You don't know jack shit about what motivates another human being, and you never really will. It is all supposition when you get right down to it. We can only guess at what is actually in Milo's brain in this case. Some guesses might be better than others, or they might not be.

I didn't like the poll choices, so I didn't bother to vote.

It's my understanding that both arguments were the common wisdom in the 1950s. Since then, they have become forbidden.

Ironically, social liberalism, because of its divergent character, normalizes taboos. Where one extreme chose to reject, the other extreme chose to normalize. That said, next time there is a pride parade, I expect to see lions, lionesses, and their cubs frolicking in gay abandon.

Jupiter म्हणाले...

"The old taboos aren't in play and at some point they find themselves more attracted to their own sex than to the other and they go with that, rather than assume it's just a phase."

I think that for many people, it is not so much whom they are attracted to, as who is attracted to them. Sex is, after all, completely unnecessary, unless you want to reproduce. And looked at dispassionately, it has a lot of negatives attached. One has to have a reason, and being desired can be a strong one.

#NoJudgment #NoLabels is/was actually #Judgment #TooManyLabels

Genderphobia with social progress was masked with homophobia. The weirdness of trans/homosexuality is attributable to a progressive incongruity between sex and gender (i.e. physical and mental attributes), where one partner, male or female, in a couplet exhibits more feminine or masculine, respectively, virtues. Even with couplets, there is equal and complementary. The dissonance is more explicit in trans/inters and trans/neos, where the latter includes changes up to and including physical and mental corruption that was shown in clinical trials to force unstable outcomes.

Ironically, perhaps, a Rainbow of inclusive exclusion was normalized by the woke and drowsy. How did that notable feature pass evaluation?

Mr Wibble म्हणाले...

This isn't true. Sex is incredibly necessary, even if it doesn't lead to conception. It's a critical part of the process by which we connect with our partner.

Attracted, yes, but the normal distribution between individuals of the same sex is not romantic attraction or, in the social liberal sense, friends with "benefits".

M Jordan म्हणाले...

Milo certainly seems very gay to me, not a by-choice gay as some say they are. He seems, like Jordan Peterson seemed to me before the breakdown, a tormented soul. Tormented souls need a life preserver and I believe there really is only one: God. God saves those who call out to him. If Milo’s cry is real, he will find salvation. That’s my story and I’m sticking with it.

n.n म्हणाले...

Sex is incredibly necessary, even if it doesn't lead to conception. It's a critical part of the process by which we connect with our partner.

One of several ways to enjoy physical intimacy that complements mental intimacy without "burdens". This is the crux of the apology to normalize transgenderism, especially trans/homosexuals. Then came trans/neogenders (e.g. people of transgender or identity) and the Rainbow of inclusive exclusion begins to fade through progressive internal, external, and mutual inconsistency forcing irreconcilable conflicts.

It’s an odd and messed up idea that anyone, no matter how horrific of a human being he/ she is, as long as they annoy the right people it’s worth it. This seems like a major personality flaw among conservatives. How low they are willing to sink if they get a chance to “own the libs”. Newsflash, you folks will never own the libs. Liberals will always see your willingness to embrace your spiteful nature as something loathsome.

Milo didn’t own the libs, he didn’t annoy the libs, he made a fool and a spectacle out of himself to make a living and the only ones who he owned were you folks who took him seriously. He was/ is a fool, a court jester.

For example, a straight person can't understand the process of "coming out" or what it means to be a sexual minority.

This “You can’t possible understand” bit, is stupid.

Yes, humans can understand one another, even if their experiences are very different. We can communicate. We write books, make movies, etc.

Coming out is stupid. Gays should keep their fucking mouths shut and leave their parents be.

Everybody is a member of a sexual minority. Gaydom isn’t the only perversion. Just about everybody has one.

Most of us are sensible and decent enough to keep it the fuck to ourselves. Try it.

Shouting Thomas म्हणाले...

Let me state something that I find I have to state quite frequently.

Gays were never persecuted or oppressed in the U.S.

I grew up in small town Illinois in the 50s. We didn’t persecute gays there and then either.

Everybody was ridiculed and bullied over one thing or another. That’s human nature, particularly among teenagers.

There were no mobs of homophobes killing gays. Gay men killed themselves by the tens of thousands with their own sexual behavior during the AIDS epidemic. Liberals created the fiction of mass homophobia to divert the blame to straight men.

I lived in the West Village for 45 years. There were occasionally attacks on gay men. The guys doing it were confused kids struggling with their own problems. Some years later, you could be certain that they would be sucking dick in the gay bath houses.

Because that is all that current "woke" culture is - a nastier form of Puritanism melded with the worst aspects of Calvinism (you achieve your salvation purely by birth), but an ideology which is actively based purely on the search for the minutest sins of others and mob persecutions of the heretics, with no provision at all for self-control, self-introspection or personal responsibility.

Go ahead - be snide about Milo. But at least he recognized early on that Wokeism was culturally and personally destructive, and didn't want to be herded into that trap.

It is not easy to grow old as a gay man, and Milo is getting older. Anyone who has the slightest trace of humane feelings toward gay people, gay men, or just other human beings should just wish him well and hope that he does find his way. I certainly do. May God bless and guide him as well as all the other human beings in distress, illness, confusion or danger.

Gays were never persecuted or oppressed in the U.S.

I grew up in small town Illinois in the 50s. We didn’t persecute gays there and then either.


Anti-gay assaults and murders have occurred in the US, even by groups if not mobs. But even if none had, it would not mean that they were not persecuted or oppressed. What do you think motivated so many gay people in the past to keep their sexual orientation a secret or gay-friendly venues to operate clandestinely? Estrangement from family, communities, and social groups and general social opprobrium were all potential consequences.

I am not a supporter of gay left activism. I don't think gays have any right to demand that they be "accepted" or "celebrated," but they do have a right to demand tolerance. That they demanded it and have largely received it is a good thing.

Now, let's get down to the issue from the standpoint of your parents.

They want blood grandchildren. They have a self-interest that is just as important as yours. Having blood grandchildren completes the spiritual cycle of life for most people. I know, because I have them.

This is a deep religious and spiritual issue for almost every person.

Your desire to be accepted is no more important than your parents' desire to see their bloodline extend into another generation.

As the argument turns. Gay equality was always based on being born gay like blacks and women are born black and female. MY saying his being gay is a chosen Sin is kryptonite to that argument. If gay is a Sin then it can be repented of and/ or the demon driven out.

Whether innate or groomed, he doesn't have to deny his past, present, or progressive state of transgenderism. He can choose to commit to the male sex and sex-correlate masculine gender. He can choose to limit the public spectacle. He can choose to abstain, if that's what he wants. The issue from the public perspective is normalization, tolerance, and rejection. To his credit, he does not exercise liberal license to indulge genderphobia, and engages, not avoids, reconciling the issue for himself and as a member of society.

"Gays have always been tolerated."

Not buying this. That tolerance has always existed here and there doesn't mean it's been anything like consistent, anything gays could count on.

I've been assaulted by a group of men yelling Faggot! I'm not even gay, I just wasn't a tough-looking guy when I was young. It was a real eye-opener, the kind of hate they had to offer just because they thought I looked soft. I have friends who actually are gay who've endured a lot worse.

An Army colleague, a really good guy, is gay. For the first years of his career, while guys around him talked about dates, love, breakups, he had to say nothing, deflect inquiries about his life or his weekend, because if he said the wrong thing to the wrong person – and he couldn't be sure who that might be – he could get kicked out. He really did want to serve, so he kept quiet. Even post-DADT he keeps his personal life and his Army life very, very separate.

As a very mild homophobe back in the day, I would have thought, Good, keep that to yourself. Nowadays I think, Why should he have to?

He's not doing anything of the kind. He is choosing to self-moderate the public spectacle of genderphobia. He should follow through with curbing the public spectacle, not of genderphobia, but of self-moderation. Although, with social progress of intolerance, perhaps it's necessary to balance the scale in public, so that others will not feel oppressed by the liberal taboo.

That is not an easy process, and he might not succeed in becoming heterosexual. However, his thinking and effort are reasonable.

You quoted Jefferson AS American conservatism - "the pursuit of Happiness" is pure Jefferson - and you guys are as hung up on diversity dogma as you were "Hands Up!

Again - you - not me. What did you geniuses do about it? You chased me out of the party by 2014.

And only Trump - not you and your God damned principles - brought me back.

You and your idiotic racist stubbornness are the problem - and always have been - and it's why BLM exit, and why blacks had to march with signs just stating "I AM A MAN".

Of course not - because God doesn't exist - so why don't we moderns drop the whole thing in a museum, where it belongs, like Confederate statues? They liked that shit as well.

No one has counted the three children growing up without a father present, have they, Skippy?

Oh, I forgot. We are all bound to statistics.

"I enjoy making you fume with jealousy"

This is the second time today I've had to mention you guys making assumptions - over the internet - about me. The last guy read a song title and assumed I was translating German incorrectly - me, who lived on the German border for over two years.

Now this fool thinks I could possibly be jealous of him, playing in a fucking church - when he knows I'm an atheist - and after he's spent the entire thread telling us of his disgusting sex life.

The mind reels.

Harry and Meghan's self-delusions have got NOTHING on ST.

Shouting Thomas म्हणाले...

Get it all out, Crack.

Tell Dr. Thomas all about it.

Shouting Thomas म्हणाले...

The problem here, Crack, you dumb fucking asshole, is that you think I’m interested in persuading you of anything or of getting your approval about anything.

I could care less if you were run over by truck on your way to the store tonight.

Shouting Thomas. "Inga, you're too fucking dumb to be here."

Make your argument, ST.

Brother, recognize...Inga, like every one of us is an immortal soul.

The outside is often crusty, but inside there is a flicker of light.

There is hardly a black stand-up working who hasn't uttered the phrase "I study white people."

White people feel no need or compulsion to do the same.


I do. I live in the inner-city while spending decades working for a multi-billion dollar corporation. To repeat, I do.

And here's what I learned. There are black folk that wish to help me succeed in life because they see that I am a human-being. And there are black folk that wish to cause me great bodily harm because they see that I am a white human-being.

I am a white man who was beaten by a black gang in the middle of the street. Has a gang of white folks ever done that to you?

Shouting Thomas म्हणाले...

I haven’t had one of these bottom of the post ranting arguments for a long time.

Utter waste of time, but I’m recovering from my COVID shot...

So, I’m struggling to get back to my routine.

ST just made me think of Myka 9's "Delusions of Grandeur" because A) he suffers from them, and B) he can play Chopin all day but he'll never do anything as good as this music he thinks is below him - but recognized by the entire world as greater than anything hi here from Yurp ever did or will do:

Planet Rock, Nigga.

It's called racial obsession. It's a symptom of internalized racism. One of many.

Abandon all hope ye who enter here.

Won’t click, Crack.

Find somebody else to con.

I get paid to play... every week... have for years.

You don’t.

Dude, you're talking to me:

I had gangs of black kids demanding the foster homes feed me to them, regularly, when I was kid.

White kids beat me with dining room table leg as I slept - because I listened to black music and they liked KISS.

I served in the Navy under a white guy who made it my job to retrieve the knives he threw across the room - never forgetting all that implied.

A white mob in Yurp chased me from an ATM.

I was attacked by Nazis in Yurp - and they had bulldogs.

Shall I go on?

Only if it makes you feel good.

it's called being outnumbered - by people like ST and a culture that produces and tolerates him - and HAVING NO CHOICE but to understand who's doing it to you.

That you guys INSIST on reframing everything as a black problem - when the Republican Party itself said it was you - says it all.

Shouting Thomas म्हणाले...

You’re a fathomless shitbag of self pity Crack.

I’m laughing my ass off.

Oh, so you'e gonna be like Democrats and think your one incident (Trump) equals all of mine (the Democrat Party of freaks) right?

Man, you guys turn so mean and unfair when it comes to race, it' hard to see how you don't recognize your racism.

Shouting Thomas म्हणाले...

I can see why everybody wants to kick your ass, Crack.

But, I don’t think it has anything to do with race.

"Milo was abandoned by his family, that’s what I believe. Not placed ,with warmth& importance, above the lusts of his parents. He’s clever, maybe even very very smart(ask him)- but broken."

Milo has always been honest about his relationship with his parents, and that it was his grandmother who took him in and threw him a lifeline. From her he inherited his Catholic faith and in spite of the damage inflicted upon him as a young boy by a member of the Church (“…It were better for him, that a millstone were hanged about his neck, and he cast into the sea, than that he should scandalize one of these little ones.” Luke 17:2 Douay-Reims) he has tried to persevere. Milo has always been very consistent in his Catholic faith, even in the face of his lifestyle. Oddly enough, I don't find the two incompatible. Christ came to save sinners; the more wretched the more blessed.

Many years ago I followed a blog of a young, gay Catholic man intent on making a sincere conversion and putting his lifestyle behind him. He understood what that meant and how difficult the road would be. But he had come to a point where he hated what he was and knew he really had no choice. Maybe that's where Milo is now. No one can see into his heart or mind to know whether he's being legit here, and I don't care to. I will assume he's being genuine and truthful, and keep him in my prayers. He's had a lot of people praying for him in this. http://voxday.blogspot.com/2021/03/living-faith.html

I don’t give a fuck about your racism ranting, your fucking piece of shit.

Fuck you and the racism garbage.

I don’t give a fuck about racism.

Shouting Thomas म्हणाले...

Time’s up, Crack.

I’ve wasted enough time with your whining, self-pity and general asshole bullshit.

Let’s do it again sometime.

It’s been fun!

The Crack Emcee म्हणाले...

If the numbers were 50/50, you guys would be perfectly correct in your outlook. But it's not, and never will be:

You are abusing 13% of this nation incessantly - and demand the right to continue as long as you can sit in places like this, with other whites, and make up scenarios where our 13% is abusing all of you.

I like how you decided to jump in on the wrong side - it's so American.

Shouting Thomas म्हणाले...

Fuck you, Crack.

Shouting Thomas म्हणाले...

Bye, asshole!

The Crack Emcee म्हणाले...

I've told the truth this whole time, and ST and Skippy have both been shown to be either Liars, hypocrites, or just woefully wrong, but - I bet you - after this, I will still be treated as their equals, and not as someone who tells the truth amongst Liars and hypocrites.

THAT'S what's wrong with this country.
