Trolling is far more complicated and joyous than that. It is an art, beyond the grasp of
most mere mortals. It is one part trickery and one part viciousness -- the ideal troll baits his target

In the summer of 2016, I involved myself in a controversy that shouldn't have been a
controversy: Paul Feig's feminist-friendly, all-female Ghostbusters reboot. I published a catty
review of the abominable flick, tarring it with my trademark reserve as a crime against comedy. I

I was somewhat late to the Ghostbusters party. The film had been attracting controversy
for months before its release. It started when the film's trailer debuted on YouTube, where it was
immediately assailed by peeved fans of the first, classic Bill Murray movie. They had read
reports about director Paul Feig's plans to reinvent the franchise from the ground up, as well as

Under normal circumstances, this would not be hugely controversial. Cult franchises like
Ghostbusters can be treacherous territory: upset the fans and you may be in for a lifetime of

But this wasn't normal circumstances, and the reaction to Ghostbusters quickly
became a media and political controversy. Partly as a means to market the movie, Feig and the
Ghostbusters cast began attacking their detractors as misogynists and sexists who only hated the
movie because of its all-female cast.
The media, amazingly, swallowed this obvious attempt to delegitimize criticism and ran
with it. Not just the film media, you understand, but also the political, mainstream and even
media. The film started to generate more headlines than a Kardashian wedding. The
frantic pro-Ghostbusters campaign reached peak absurdity when, after disappointing box office
politicians from the Califomia Legislative Women's Caucus gathered at a private
screening to watch the movie. pter the vie%Bug, their leading iheiH 8 gave 5 series of

(I promise we'll get back to the jokes soon.)
In the past, the leftist coalition was based on economic class. The left were the champions
of blue-collar workers against the managerial, big--business classes. Their priorities were jobs,
pay, and decent living standards for ordinary citizens. A few leftists -- Bemie Sanders in the
United States, and Jeremy Corbyn in Britain -- continue this tradition. They are, notably,
significantly older than many other left-wing politicians. They are also loathed by much of the
establishment in their respective parties.
WhylBecause
.Because the mainstream left, today, has very different priorities.
There was no reason why the left had to abandon its old blue-collar base. The industries

that kept them in work may have largely disappeared, but the voters themselves didn't go nghts shi r
anywhere. Indeed, as voters in old working--class heartlands entered a crisis, with insecure
economic prospects, the left should have been more attentive to their concerns.
But that didn't happen.
SS0033737
15
Instead, the left chose to abandon their old voters and seek out new prospects. Slowly,
they began to ignore the former working class, and turn to a very different electoral coalition:
latte-sipping metropolitan voters, women, and minorities. The fact that minorities were only a

recipients added pressure to their already-beleaguered former base.
After such a betrayal, it's remarkable that millions of former working-class families still
remain loyal to parties of the left.
As their electoral coalition changed, so too did the left's politics. They became less
concerned with pay, more contemptuous of efforts to protect old industries, and practically
venomous towards the cultural values of their old voters. Barack Obama's infamous 2008 quip

War One, the European working class (with the exception of Russia) chose to fight for king and
country instead of rise up against their masters. And so, in the 1920s, the Italian Marxist Antonio
Gramsci decided that the time had come for a new form of revolution -- one based on culture, not
class.
According to Gramsci, the reason why the proletariat had failed to rise up was because

In the 1950s and 60s a group of European expatriate academics known as the Frankfurt
School married Gramsci's idea of cultural revolution to the idea of a new revolutionary
vanguard: one made up of students, feminists, and minorities who felt excluded from mainstream
western culture and sought to change it. Their ideas would provide much of the intellectual
ballast for the cultural upheavals of the 1960s, and the subsequent transformation of the left.
That's why Andrew Breitbart wrote about them extensively in his bestselling book,
Righteous Indignation.
The New Left, as they came to be called, were responsible for the early stages of the
left's pivot away from traditional class politics and towards the divisive, politically correct world
of gender, racial, and sexual politics we know today. They were the ones responsible for making
issues like abortion, the reversal of gender roles, racial justice, pacifism, and multiculturalism
into major platforms of the left.
The students who joined the New Left in the 1960s became the professors who are
teaching you today.
The New Left also enjoyed phenomenal success in the realm of culture. For the youth of
the 1960s, rebelling against the over-protective, military-minded, and somewhat austere World
War Two generation, the ideas of cultural Marxism struck a chord -- even though, for the most
part, thsee young baby boomer didn't realise where thsee ideas were coming from. Rock
musicians, the standard-bearers of young boomer culture, became fierce advocates for pacifism,
SS0033740
18
feminism, and all the other causes of the New Left -- a tradition that continues to this

day.
The other reason thatwhy the New Left waswere so successful is that in the 1960s, their

The tragedy is that instead of granting life to the inherently divisive doctrines of Cultural
Marxism, these problems could easily have been solved with the milder tradition of Classical

For better or worse (what am I saying1-- â€”Ddefinitely for worse!), the New Left became
the defining youth movement of the 60s and 70s, and although initially perceived as radical, its
ideas would eventually come to dominate the mainstream movement.

problems, men, and especially white
working-class men, are routinely ignored by the leftist political class. Any attempts to address
their issues are usually met with outrage. Only this year, when the British conservative MP
Philip Davies gave a speech at a conference on men's issues, the reaction of feminists in the left-
wing labour party was to demand he be suspended from his party. As for whites, any attempt to
organize is usually received by the mainstream as the very revival of Nazism, despite the fact
that much of such organizing activity today comes as a response to a culture that appears to hate
them.
Popular culture, dominated by the left, is instructive. Movies are filled with petty, mean-
spirited jabs at straight white males. There's a huge trend of movies that seek to channel white
guilt over slavery, with movies like, Django Unchained, 10 Years 2 Slave and MLK. The villains
in these movies - always white males - get progressively more sadistic and irredeemable.
Strangely, there are no movies about Ottoman or Middle Eastern slave-owners!
I suppose we'll have to wait far Muslim guilt to became a thing.

Anyone who knows basic social psychology could have seen what was going to happen.
Since the 1970s, social psychologists have been aware that emphasising differences between
groups leads to mistrust and hostility. In a series of landmark experiments, the psychologist
Henri Tajfel found that even wearing different-colored shirts was enough for groups to begin
displaying signs of mistrust.

Welcome to the era of Minority Wars.
It sounds laughably ironic, but the modern leftist movement has argued itself into a
position where people can be discriminated against on the basis of gender, skin color and
orientation.

males"
"straight white in the media today: men are being ridiculed for things they cannot change
about themselves. And it's the political left doing the discrimination.
The future of the progressive movement will be akin to the nightmarish community of

It's always anti-intellectual to substitute moral outrage for genuine understanding, but
sadly, that was the approach taken by many otherwise-sensible commentators towards the alt-
right when it first emerged. This was grossly unfair: in its early days, before the white-
nationalist faction solidified its control over the movement, the alt-right included a member base
as diverse as disaffected Tea Party supporters and 18-year old memesters who were curious, as
all young people are, at a movement that defied so many taboos.

columnists on the left and right did, was an act of supreme intellectual dishonesty.
It was also wholly unjust to the younger members of the movement, who are perhaps the
first young members of a generation to be denied a chance to experiment with dangerous ideas
and not have their reputations tarnished forever. Their flirtation with the alt-right is nowhere near
as deplorable as the youth of the 60s and 70s, who joined violent terrorist groups like the Red
Faction (Baader-Meinhof) in Gennany and the Weather Underground in the United States. Those
who did not join them openly cheered them on.
Surprise surprise, if you join a left-wing extremist organization, your life is not going to
be ruined. Many of the young terrorists of the 1970s now enjoy cushy professorships at leading
institutions of higher learning. Wander into Columbia University, and you might find yourself in
a class led by adjunct professor Kathy Boudin, a former Weather Underground terrorist who

Once again, the Fake News media displayed its talent for spinning a web of lies across

But this was 2016, a year that unlike any other proved just how absurd, powerless, and

anyone really believe he would do otherwise?) and named Bannon his White House Chief
Strategist.
The Fringe Takes Over
The media didn't succeed in its main intention, which was delegitimizing the most
effective right-wing individuals of modem times. However, they may have succeeded in killing
the alt-right.

Facebook had been caught in a lie: its "Trending feature, ostensibly designed to
provide users with a list of the most popular topics being discussed on the platform that day, was
in fact being manipulated from the top down, by a group of editors who were as biased as any
mainstream media newsroom.
Despite heralding a new age of free, unfiltered information in their early days, it seemed
that the differences between new media and old media were not so great after all. Both were
spoon-feeding information to their readers, deciding for the public what they should and
shouldn't be allowed to see.
It wasn't supposed to be this way. Users of social media were promised that information
would be free, with users choosing for themselves what information they received, and from
whom. That's how it was at the start -- in the early years of Facebook, the idea of an editor
deciding what information you most needed to see today was laughable. Equally, there was no
algorithm who saw what posts, when, and where. Instead, the system was simple --
deciding
users followed other users, and saw a list of their posts, updated in real-time. Beyond the block
button, there was no filtering. If your friend made a post at 6:15 PM, you saw it at 6:15 PM. The

And he's barely accomplishing that -- Facebook requires constant policing from the
conservative media to keep the biases of their staff in check. . On numerous occasions, wrongfully
suspended accounts - like Pamela Geller's - have

only been reinstated following coverage from
Breitbart. Facebook only took concerns over its Trending News team seriously after the
conservative media got involved, and only fired them after Breitbart reported on their biases.
Despite the fact that he is basically on their side-

side---anga progressives aren't known to
tolerate anything but intolerance when it comes to conservatives-_--Zuckerberg's feeble defence
of political diversity, and his unwillingness to drop Peter Thiel from the company's board of
directors were, for progressives, unforgivable. And so, after Trump's victoñ, the social media
company quickly became their go-to scapegoat.

Twitter was once the most promising of the social media platforms that promised to usher
in a new age of instant, democratic free expression. Its character limited encouraged us to share

And it was fun! It was fun to watch governments and politicians humbled in the face of
the global citizenry's unmoderated opinions. It was fun to engage in the raucous back-and-forth
between liberals, conservatives and libertarians, on a platform which, for a while at least, made
no effort to force everyone into intellectually stifling filter bubbles comprised of people who
think exactly the same way. It was the opposite of a safe space. It could embarrass governments,
kill officially-mandated myths, and even topple dictators. It was dangerous. Naturally, I was a
fan.
Twitter provided three things: freedom, fun, and the humbling of authority. So, naturally,
it was only a matter of time before the left, which hates the former and loves the latter, decided
to crash the party.

If Dorsey won't address his platform's blatant bias, he might one day have to answer to
the courts. On March 4 2016, I asked President Obama's White House Press Secretary, Josh

about the importance of protecting free expression.

Google
Twitter is the Silicon Valley company where progressive bias is most apparent, but
Google is the company where it is the most dangerous. Google- the eampany that has perhaps
more influence than any other in controlling what information we get to see on the web, and it
wields a frightening amount of power. If Google decides that it doesn't want web users to find
something, it would be very difficult to stop them. That's probably why, out of all the Silicon
Valley companies accused of bias, it was Google's that Donald Trump addressed directly.
The occasion that led him to address it was the release of an explosive video showing
bias in Google's search results. In thea video, tech channel SourceFed demonstrated that searches
for Hillary Clinton did not autocomplete to words that were popular searches if they reflected
cri"
negatively on the Democratic candidate (for example "Hillary Clinton did not autocomplete
criminal"
to the popular search term "Hillary Clinton criminal"). This contrasted with the competing,

correctly.
Google denied altering its search recommendations to favour Clinton, saying it does not

citBtltK
to get Google to autocomplete disparaging search terms next to a person's name -- so long as that
person waisn't Hillary Clinton.
According to Epstein's findings, it was relatively easy to get Google to display negative
search terms for Clinton's primary opponent, Bernie Sanders, and for Donald Trump. Another
coincidence?
Eric Schmidt, CEO of the company that owns Google, is of course very much in the
mould of Tim Cook, Jack Dorsey, and Mark Zuckerberg. But unlike those three, his involvement
in politics suggests a direct link between his technology work and his support for left-wing

politicians. Schmidt is the founder of campaigning organization "The the sole

technological prowess at the campaign's disposal.
Schmidt, more than the other CEOs, save perhaps Tim Cook, was committed to Hillary
Clinton's failed run for President. And Epstein's experiment, remember, showed that Google
displayed negative search terms for both Donald Trump and Bernie Sanders -- only Hillary was
let off.
It's not just Schmidt, either. A report from The Intercept in April 2016 revealed just how
close Google's relationship with the Obam.a administration was27. The report showed that

The Intercept's report also showed how Google operated a "revolving with the
White House, with employees frequently moving between both.
...55 cases of individuals moving from. positions at Google into the federal
government, and 197 individuals moving from positions inside the government to jobs at
Google. The data includes positions at firms that Eric Schmidt owns or controls - Civis
Analytics, The Groundwork, and Tomorrow Ventures - along with two law firms and
three lobbying firms that have represented Google. On the government side, staffers at
Obama for America and a handful of other political campaigns were included.
The data includes individuals from Google appointed to government boards while
maintaining their positions at the tech finn. Google board member John Doerr was

Schmidt has been part of the President's Council of Advisers on Science and Technology

With such a close relationship, it's little wonder that Eric Schmidt fought so hard to elect
Hillary Clinton, the Obama continuity candidate.
Google's bias matters immensely. Some might consider conservatives fortunate that tech
companies didn't use all the powers at their disposal to influence the election. Google could, if
they wanted to, ban all links to Breitbart, as could Twitter and Facebook. But they would be4e
-- in the current climate, conservatives feel just safe enough on social media not to flock
wrong
to competing platforms. There is growing awareness that the companies that serve as conduits
for speech on the web are no longer politically neutral, but not enough to trigger a mass exodus.
The numbers should horrify anyone who holds out hope that future elections might be
fair ones. One of Robert Epstein's earlier experiments found that manipulation of search results
can convince undecided voters to back a candidate with frightening efficiency . In some
demographics, Epstein found that the conversion rate was up to 80 percent.
If conservatives thought mainstream media bias was bad, just wait until they see the
effects of social media bias -- or worse, search engine bias.
Why Conservatives Must Take on Silicon Valley
Given the high-tech forces ranged against him, it's nothing short of a miracle that Donald
Trump won the presidency. In 2020, when social media and search engines are likely to wield
even more power, he may not be so lucky. If conservatives want to keep winning, they need to
get serious, and it needs to happen fast.
They need to be aware that, aside from rare exceptions like Peter Thiel, almost everyone
in the world of tech hates them. Jack Dorsey is an ardent Black Lives Matter supporter who has

Eric Schmidt is less vocal, but as we saw above, potentially far more dangerous. He
already worked to pbut Hillary Clinton in the White House. Who knows what he will do to
sabotage Trump over the course of his presidency?
The biases of social media companies matter in a big way. Misused, the power of Silicon
Valley could easily swing elections. And all of that power lies in the hands of a few ultra-
progressive plutocrats.
Social media bias is far more dangerous to conservatives than mainstream media bias.

Republicans need to get aggressive, they need to constantly scrutinize and investigate
social media companies, keeping them under the spotlight at all times. They need to organize

It's no surprise that even women want nothing to do with this. Most white people reject
racism, most straight people reject homophobia, so why wouldn't most women reject an openly
misandrist ideology? .Hating

Hating men, like hating minorities or hating women, is a feeling clung on
to by a tiny, bitter minority. It is an accident of history that this fom1 of hatred came to be
endorsed by mainstream media and culture. But the support of BuzzFeed or The Guardian is no
guarantee of popular support, amongst women or men. Indeed, the opposite is usually true.

fact that the number of people who identify as feminists in the west is approaching the number of

Within days of publication, the story began to unravel Worth editor Richard Bradley
first began to raise questions about the story on his personal blog, followed paleo-
by
conservative pundit Steve Sailer. Bradley pointed out that Sabrina R.ubin Erdley, the Rolling
Stone journalist who wrote the story, failed to identify or reach out to any of the men who
according to Jackie, repeatedly raped her. Nor did she appear to have identified or communicated
with Jackie's two friends, who allegedly corroborated her story.

The Washington Post eventually did track down the people who allegedly cAITAboratcd
Jackie's story, only to receive a completely different account from them. They told the Post that

The feminist war on science one of the biggest components of the wider left-wing war on

One of the reasons that feminists fight so hard to stop supermarkets selling 'girls
"boys' toys"
(dolls houses, baby pushchairs, stuffed toys) and boys toys (action figures, toy trucks,
building sets) is because they fervently believe that these innocuous playthings socialize men and
gcJldcl'
women into their respective gender roles. They really think that if you make a girl play with a
truck or a train set, she'll be more likely to grow up 10 be an engineer.
Thanks to decades of pseudoscience from feminist academics and left-wing sociologists,
this last argument is more difficult to unravel. Indeed, some of the era's foremost psychologists -

Steven Pinker, David Buss, Robert Plomin, Simon Baron-Cohen
careers doing just that.
The sum total of their research is overwhelming -- gender roles are

over-technical brain. So he decided to test if boys really were, as the old sexists believed, bom
with more technically-oriented brains than women.
The lynchpin of the feminist argument that women are made, not born, is the claim that
girls are socialized into their female roles during their early childhood. In order to test this claim,
Baron-Cohen decided to run experiments on newborn babies -- before any socialization could
take effect. He provided m.ale and female babies with 8 physical-mechanical object (a mobile)
and 8 social object fa face). Lo and behold, the male babies showed greater interest in the mobile,
while the female babies showed more interest in the face.
Other studies also drive home the inescapable reality that men and women are simply
wired differently. Surveys of women

cvonlcn across countries have found that women in developing
countries, where jobs and resources are scarce, are more likely to enter STEM fields . Yet in the
vastly more feminist west, where women have greater financial security and career choices,
don'
women choose different professions. In other words, when women have a choice, they don't
choose STEM.
.Ivl.
That's not to say women don't find QP2p'

any scientific fields appealing. Psychology (people
oriented) and biology (plants, animals, and again people) are both dominated by women.
Whenever I meet a feminist who claims that the patriarchy prevents women from going into
astrophysics and computer science, I always ask them why it hasn't also prevented them from
bachelor'
going into biology, where 58 percent of bachelor's, master's degrees, and doctorates are given to

Feminism in the west serves little purpose other than hating men, making pointless
demands, and obsessing over trivial issues. It has poisoned relations between the sexes, nearly
destroyed due process on campus, and constantly saddles businesses with pointless gender
diversity requirements.
But now, I'm sorry to say, thanks to the mistakes of progressives, we do need feminism
in the west -- or at least, some parts of it.

easier to blame other people for your problems, instead of undergoing the difficult process of
looking inward. Like feminists who blame their everyday grievances on an invisible
"patriarchy,"
or Neo-Nazis who think the Jews are responsible for everything bad that happens to
them, or Democrats who blame the Russians for Hillary losing the 2016 election, it's very easy
to dodge responsibility if you have a great big boogeyman to lump the blame on.
Leftism, which combines tribal identity politics with a disdain for personal responsibility,
is the ultimate political expression of this instinct.

they make up 26 percent of police shooting victims, despite making up 13 percent of

The Black Lives Matter movement elaims that white of ficers are especially prone
to shooting innocent blacks due to racial bias, but this too is a myth. A March 2015
Justice Department report on the Philadelphia Police Department found that black and
Hispanic officers were much more likely than white officers to shoot blacks based on
"threat misperception"------that is, the mistaken belief that a civilian is armed.
A 2015 study by University of Pennsylvania criminologist Greg Ridgeway,
formerly acting director of the National Institute of Justice,

Education is the prime example. Schools in America are still largely segregated -- black
pupils overwhelmingly go to schools in lower-income neighborhoods, where class sizes are
large, the standard of teaching is poor, and where gangs prey upon adolescent boys. In 83 out of
of'
the 97 large American cities where data is available, the majority of black students attended
school where most of their classmates were low-income. In 54 out of the 97 cities, at least 80
percent of black students did so63.

sports, or becoming a music artist
Unlike lashing out at the police, fixing America's schools would go a long way to solving
the deep-seated issues that cause black people to remain stuck in a cycle of crime and poverty.
But unlike the angry, tribal politics of Black Lives Matter, the political dividends of such reforms
could only be reaped in the very long term. Efforts to fix America's schools, as George W. Bush
discovered when he attempted to do so, typically cause more political damage than gain.
The problem of black schools is part of a wider maelstrom of disadvantage faced by
black people in America. Black children are more likely to live in inadequate housing, are more
likely to grow up in conditions of relative poverty, and are more likely to have uneducated or
educated parents -- one of the strongest indicators of future academic and professional
poorly
success.

I'm actually far more concerned by where progressives, who have been complaining
about racism and racial disadvantage for decades, are moving on racial issues. Having made the
problem of racial disadvantage worse with ill-advised welfare programs that try to fix black
poverty by throwing money at the problem, they are now moving on to Black Lives Matter, a
movement that is leading to Irlore el lives. being lost.. cement [A241]; vo s wt c emy
As we shall see in the next section, they are also moving on to issues that are entirely
trivial.
The Narrative
Black Lives Matter is instructive, because it illustrates how the political and cultural
establishment can spread lies when the truth is in plain sight. After all, it's not as if data on
homicides, deaths in police custody and arrests is hidden away. Anyone can access the
information they need to debunk the lies of Black Lives Matter.
But that takes time and effort Activists, cultural elites and the mainstream media know
that most people have too much going on in their lives to fact-check the narrative. Especially if
the narrative is blasted out of every TV network, broadsheet newspaper and online social
network.
In the mainstream media, there is perhaps one major mainstream newspaper -- the Wall

SS0033832
110
It's been more than fifty years since the Johnson administration signed the 1964 Civil
Rights Act into law, and America has blood on its streets. But it can no longer be blamed on
racism -- at least, not on white racism.
On July 7, 2016, the black supremacist Micah Xavier Johnson opened fire on police
officers in Dallas, Texas, killing five officers and injuring nine others, as well as two civilians. It
was the deadliest incident for U.S. law enforcement since the September 11 attacks.
Just ten days later, another black supremacist, Gavin Eugene Long, opened fire on police
officers in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. He killed two officers and hospitalized three others, one
critically.
Both Micah Xavier Johnson and Gavin Eugene Long grew up in a society in which
university professors, celebrities, and mainstream news outlets all told them that the police were
racist and wanted to kill them. Both men turned to virulently racist forms of black nationalism,
which -- unlike, say, Pepe the Frog -- receives scant scrutiny or attention by media and political
elites. In many university departments, the ow u hne 'views held by Long and Johnson are Comment [A253]; Jse ct"ê ems :c
virtually encouraged.
Both men are individuals responsible for their actions, but it would be simplistic to argue
that they weren't also products of their upbringing, and the messages they were bombarded with
since birth. While the progressive left harangues white twerkers and dreadlocks-wearers as racist,
and while the establishment media wrings its hands over alt-right memes, black people in
America are being fed a daily dose of anti-white, anti-police hatred that, inevitably, spills over
into violence.
The greatest tragedy is that the primary target of this violence is the police, one of the
greatest, largely unacknowledged allies of black communities. It is the police who stand between
SS0033833
111
black people and the greatest threat to black lives, gang violence. It is the police who disperse
they'
black rioters when re burning down their own neighborhoods. And, amazingly, they will
continue to do both, despite the fact that they seem to receive only bullets and bloodshed from
black people in return.
I'm proud to enjoy the support of police officers and other men and women serving
America. I am never morc humbled and grateful when I receive praise from these people, who
risk so much and give so much for their country, often in return for nothing but scorn from the

But I don't hate them because they pose a threat to white people. If you aren't a police officer,
you'll probably be fine. No, , I hate them because they do precisely the opposite of what they
claim to do. They cause more black lives to be lost, not less. And they do so by attacking the one
group of people, the police, who are trying to help their communities.
The people who really ought to hate Black Lives Matter are other black people.

It was two weeks after the election of Donald J. Trump as President of the United States,
and the Deputy Prime Minister of Japan,Tarõ Asõ, was visibly annoyed. But he wasn't annoyed
at Donald Trump.
Speaking in Japan's National Diet (parliament), the famously blunt Deputy Prime
Minister shot down a suggestion that the country should begin to make plans for Trump's
policies, as predicted by the American media.
"There's no point in Japan making policy based on the guesses of American newspapers

Asõ was right to be annoyed. What is a Japanese politician to do when previously-trusted
names in western news, like the New York Times, The Washington Post, BBC and CNN fail so
comprehensively to describe what's going on in American politics? It's best not to pay attention
at all.
It's an option that a growing number of Am.ericans have taken as well.

A Gallup poll conducted less than a month before the election found that
trust in the mainstream media had fallen to an all-time low. Just 32 percent said they had a "great

or a "fair of trust in the media, the lowest figure that Gallup has recorded since
they began conducting the poll in 1972. Just ten years ago, the same figure stood at 50 percent.
Even Democrats, who the media caters to, are lukewarm on the subject. Gallup found that

just 51 percent of them. said they had a great deal or a fair amount of trust in the media,
compared to 30 percent of independents and 14 percent of Republicans -- the same

roughly
number who supported John Kasich in the primary.
Even more worryingly for the media, trust is in particular decline amongst younger
people. From 2011 to 2016, trust in the 18-49 age bracket fell by nearly twenty points, from 43
percent in 2011 to 26 percent in 2016. For the older generation (50 and over), trust only declined
by six points in the same period, from 44 percent in 2011 to 38 percent in 2016.
In other words, the few people who still trust the media in America will soon be either
retired or dead.
Isn't it deliciously ironic that the children of the 1960s, that era when the young rose up
against the heroic, selfless World War Two generation, are now stuck in the same old jam as

Precisely the same thing happened in Brexit, unexpectedly won by the populist right, and

Nonetheless, he persisted, repeatedly highlighting the failings of Hillary Clinton on social

Having been embarrassed so often and so spectacularly by the alternative media, you
would expect the mainstream to show a little humility after Trump's victory. Instead, they opted
to double down, in an ill-conceived attempt to take vengeance on those who humiliated them. As
always, their efforts would backfire completely.
Instead of asking themselves why they (and the, but-I-repeat-myself) had lost
the people's trust, the media instead asked why the people had lost trust in them. A subtle, but
important difference as we shall see.
The media decided that the people had been duped.
Instead of listening to pure, truthfulrDen-loerat propaganda, the people were listening to,
reading, and watching-the alternative media. Something had to be done. But what? Well, the

If you want a clear example of the difference between the "fake that leftists

dragged through the new kangaroo courts springing up on college campuses, and the latter, of a
fake rape panic that painted college-aged men as insatiable, psychopathic monsters.
All of this was down to the media, which leaped on the rape culture panic for clicks and

In April 2013, I appeared on an edition of the British panel show 10 O'clock Live to take
part in a debate. The topic was gay marriage, a cause to which I was then opposed. My opposite
number was Boy George, and it was a rare occasion in which I wasn't the most flamboyantly-
dressed person on set (although even today, I would never wear anything like Boy George's
purple eyeliner -
my god!).
My mere opposition to gay marriage was enough to baffle the audience. In 2013, gay
marriage had become a kind of litmus test of social acceptability for the left. If you were for it,
you were a normal human being If you were against it, you were a bigoted, malicious relic of
the past -- something to be dumped in the trash-heap of history.
Merely being introduced on the show as a gay Catholic opposed to same-sex marriage
was all that was needed to baffle my fellow panelists. Before the show was over, I was called a

I enjoy being a degenerate. I enjoy violating rules.
So does everyone, to some extent -- the thrill of violating taboos is what lies behind every
great cultural rebellion, from the kids who defied their parents to follow touring rock bands in
the 60s and 70s, to the gamers who turned Mortal Kombat and Grand Theft Auto into smash hits
precisely because they knew how shocking thosey games were to polite society, right up to the

anime characters, not because they are neo-Nazis, but because they know it winds up

Whether re breaking down sexual taboos or political ones, the thrill is the same.
But in order to violate a taboo, there must first be a taboo to violate. In politics, this
takes care of itself -- one set of language codes is usually replaced with another, as new

groups of cultural elites take over from the next. But what about sexuality? That, after all, is
more important -- because while a language code is exciting, it doesn't come close to

surmned up in his now-ubiquitous motto "that which does not kill us makes us By
casting itsthei-r disapproval on us, society once.gave gays an opportunity to develop all sorts of
virtues -- bravery, daring, a flair for the clandestine and the dangerous, a creative mind, and an
appreciation of freedom.
But most of all, it allowed us to be naughty. Again, Camille Paglia noted that, in the_past
whenever she met gay men, anywhere in the world, she found a "spontaneity and a spirit of fun
mischief."
and She's right. There's nothing gay men love more than being mischievous, but it
seems mainstream gays want to take all of our opportunities for fun away from us.

I could understand if gays somehow forgot how fun it was to piss off stuck-up
schoolmarms like Tipper Gore, but I fail to grasp how gays turned into stuck-up schoolmanns
like Tipper
Think back to your classroom days. How did the most mischievous members of the
classroom get their kicks? Why, from testing the limits of the schoolteacher's patience, of
course. Whether it was smuggling trading cards into class, cracking jokes while the teacher was
speaking, or telling the good looking boys in class to reach into your pockets because you had
candy (okay, maybe that was just me), there has always been an endless battle between teachers
and naughty students, each constantly trying to outsmart the other.
But without the teacher, and the constant threat of discipline they represented, that age-
old duel becomes meaningless. Imagine if the teachers disappeared for a week -- there would be
a couple of days of anarchy, in which the naughtiest members of the class did exactly as they
there'
pleased ... And then, I suspect, they would get bored and go home. Rebellion is no fun if there's
nothing to rebel against. The Lord of the Flies happened because they were stuck on an island
without teachers.

being gay. Why on earth would we do that?

WHY ESTABLISHMENT REPUBLICANS HATE ME
"Right after liberal Democrats, the most dangerous politicians are country club
Republicans."
-- Thomas Sowell
"I don 't believe in the Republican Party or the Democratic Party. I just believe in
"
parties.
-- Samantha Jones, Sex and the City
In January 2016, I got into what I thought was a friendly Twitter spat with then-editor-at-
large for Breitbart, Ben Shapiro. Ben is a more introverted and less professionally successful
version of me who lost his audience by freaking out about Donald Trump. It ended up turning
nasty, and we're not friends ary more.
They'
Shapiro's distaste for me and his distaste for Trump are very related. re part of a
wider story of insecurity and anger on the part of the establishment right: anger that their
positions of power and influence over conservative politics are slowly slipping away. Anger that
they are being replaced by a new generation of young, fashionable and funny conservatives who
have 110 time for the 1W0s hangups of older consen atives. We4e·aimt4e-nav·iga-ters-whe··ean··get --- Comment [A329]: ke a"a9

more so - at the rise of Donald Trump. That was the establishment conservative.
Establishm.ent conservatives were so upset by Trump that they made a pathetic attempt to
"NeverTrump,"
torpedo his efforts against Hillary Clinton. Calling themselves some of them
threw their support behind Clinton, while others rallied around the laughable Evan McMullin, a
former middle-ranking CIA operative whom no one had heard of before he became the
establishment's spoiler candidate.
Naturally, as the biggest and loudest Trump fan, the establishment also came for me.
After I objected to their attempts to brand every web-based Trump supporter a frothing Neo-Nazi
and anti-Semite, I attracted the attention of their queen bee, a rotund chap called Glenn Beck

One comment from Ben Shapiro, made on the Dave Rubin Show in February 2016, sums
up this conservative myopia.
"The problem with Trump is he fails to distinguish political incorrectness from just being

Shapiro is thinking of a world where only politics matter. To him, political correctness is
a problem because it suppresses facts that are relevant to current affairs -- and that's it. But for
most other people, the stultifying rules of political correctness go far beyond the suppression of
facts -- it's the suppression of jokes, it's the suppression of banter, and yes, it's also the
suppression of rudeness. Political e s Is a problem because It intcltupts everyday human.

The Muslim reformer Maajid Nawaz coined the term "regressive to describe the
identity-obsessed leftists who defend a religious minority at the expense of, well, every other
minority. Sam Harris sums up the backwards attitude of this group with his characteristic clarity.
These people are part of what Maajid Nawaz has termed the "regressive Left"-
pseudo-liberals who are so blinded by identity politics that they reliably take the side of a
backward mob over one of its victims. Rather than protect individual women, apostates,
intellectuals, cartoonists, novelists, and true liberals from the intolerance of religious
criticism.139
imbeciles, they protect theocrats from
Examples of this behaviour are not hard to find. Indeed, the problem is less finding
examples than picking the best ones to use. Every month seems to bring a new outrage, each
more eye-popping than the last.
Take the aftermath of the gruesome assault on the offices of Charlie Hebdo in Paris, a
rare example of a leftist newspaper that understood radical Islam to be a force of the radical
religious right -- actually, that's too mild, it's really the radical medieval religious right.
Now I know members of the radical Christian right in the United States, and they are
scart but nowhere near as scary. They may believe I'm going to burn in eternal hellfire, but they
aren't in a rush to send me there.
Charlie Hebdo had the temerity to stand against religious bullies by publishing cartoons

of the Prophet Muhammed. They were one of the few magazines after the Danish cartoons

correctly understood that allowing people to intimidate artists and writers by setting cars on fire
and threatening violence was the first step on the road to a terrified, censored society.
So they stood with Jyllands-Posten, the Danish newspaper that triggered the 2005
"blasphemous"
controversy with their drawings, and published their own humorous cartoons of
the Prophet Muhammed. On 7 January 2015, 12 employees of the newspaper paid for it with
their lives, when two armed Muslim siblings forced their way into Charlie Hebdo's offices in
Paris and opened fire.
Charlie Hebdo is a leftist publication. Marxist, in fact. Their opposition to Islam flows
from their opposition to the right. They are just as strident in their criticism of the National Front
as they are of Islam. I mav happen

. to think the National Front probably deserves a more nuanced
approach, but unlike the rest of the left, I can't fault Charlie Hebdo for lacking consistency. They
say they oppose bigotry, and they do -- whether they perceive it in the European right or in

To the section of the French population that is already marginalized, embattled,

cartoons of the Prophet must be seen as being intended to cause further humiliation and

scholars in Australia, delivered the speech in Arabic. IIe has lived in Australia for 19 years, and
his integration speech is in Arabic.

Well there is a real rape culture in the west. And there is real homophobia in the west.
And there is real out-group intolerance in the west. But barely any of it comes from frat boys or

It was no accident that the Berlin Wall collapsed at the end of the 1980s. It was the end of
a decade when America and to a lesser extent, Britain had shaken off the malaise of the 1970s
and recovered their national sense of self-confidence. Margaret Thatcher and Ronald Reagan
proudly walked the world stage, aggressively asserting the superiority, and, well, the greatness of

choice between the wWest and communism quickly became a no-brainer.
At the same time, western governments poured money into programs designed to

undermine the idea of communism. With state funding, Radio Free Europe and Voice o9f
America ceaselessly broadcast news of anti-communist activities - as well as jazz and rock
music - across the Iron Curtain. The propaganda campaign was so successful that KGB memos

communism, western radio broadcasts, offering tantalising glimpses of life and culture in the
west, proved it.

But they won't be defeated. The Islamic State may be crumbling in Syria, but it

This is a war of culture as much as it is a war of politics or faith, and we have to start
fighting it now, in music, books, joumalism, art and with every other means of creativity at our

But more than that - and this is what they really don't want to do - our leaders need to

the "haunting fear that someone, somewhere, might be happy And who could possibly hate
happiness? Why, those who are denied it themselves. Authoritarian movements draw ugly,
miserable people like moths to 8 flame for precisely this reason.
It's also no surprise that the early progressive movement was driven by the middle class,
which has always tended to produce a worrying number of killjoys. More than any other
economic group, it's the middle class that tends to worry the most about social propriety and
often-stifling standards of behavior.

2015 saw the rise of bomb threats made towards GamerGate related events, several of
which I attended. The first incident was at a GamerGate meetup in Washington D.C. attended by
of'
more than 300 garners from all walks of life, and the second was at a daylong discussion of
GamerGate organized by the Society of Professional Joumalists

.Ioumalists in Miami, Florida. Although.
some individuals thought to be responsible for the threats have been interviewed by federal
ol'
authorities, as of this writing neither of these crimes have been solved.
This was the climate surrounding GamerGate, a bitter war involving garners, anonymous
internet trolls, hectoring feminist scolds, and left-wing journalists. For over two years, it raged
across all corners of the intemet, involving every young subculture that had emerged with the
rise of social media, and every dirty web-based harassment tactic thought of by anom mous trolls

It was the greatest and most bitter battle in the millennial culture wars, in which hundreds
of thousands of garners took to the internet to demand an end to an out-of-control, left-wing
press that lacked 2 â(and sought to turn a freewheeling, -- Comment [A499]: Geras
gaming any semblance of
creative hobby into a neutered, feminist safe space. But garners, many of them veterans of
struggles against the conservative right's attempts to censor violent video games in the 1990s,
proved to be a far more fonnidable opponent than the left, and perhaps even garners themselves,
predicted.
No one was more amazed than me. I once described garners as dorky weirdos in
yellowing underpants. And, let's be fair, some of them are. Probably perfectly nice people. Yet
here were these dorky weirdos, taking on the fury of the leftist media-activist complex without
flinching. and in some cases, yes, unhygienic - but

GamerGate was enormously significant. It was the first time that consumers of a major
entertainment medium staged a mass resistance to the influence of the political left. Hollywood,
music, literature, the arts, and virtually every other cultural arena had fallen prey to the relentless
co-option machine of the cultural left. In Hollywood, deviation from politically correct norms

Gawker, the parent company of Kotaku, had an even worse reputation. It was singled out

of the politically correct age, Gawker was once its High Inquisitor. Much mere paceive
aggreceive and whiny, and much less well dressed as an actual medieval inquisiter, yes, but an
inquisitor nonetheless.
The publication also had a shameful reputation for gratuitously violating the privacy of
private citizens, for no particular reason. Fatally, this included the outing of PayPal co-founder
Peter Thiel as gay in 2007 - a decision that would come back to haunt Gawker, as Thiel would
embark on a 10-year vendetta to bring down the company, including the funding of a financially
crippling lawsuit from wrestler Hulk Hogan. This lawsuit would result in the company filing for
bankruptcy, and to its founder and editor-in-chief Nick Denton resigning. A shadow of its former
self, the company was later sold to Univision.
Thiel and Hogan were formidable enemies. But according to Gawker's former editor-in-
chief, Max Read, it was the humble gamer that proved to be the publication's toughest foe.

There's a reason for this. Whenever the medium has attracted attention from either side
of the political spectrum, it has been negative. Political commentators are universally critical of

The only place you might have imagined would stick up for video games is the games
press itself: those outlets and writers dedicated to reviewing games and exploring every detail of
the entertainment genre that, after all, evokes intense passion in its ardent fans. And for a while
the games press played exactly this role: applauding their virtues, and defending them from
charges that they make players violent. In the 2000s, Jack Thompson, a conservative lawyer,

The hunt for culture-war implications in every expression of culture led one writer at the

hunt for hidden meanings¹7°. . Like overzealous Freudian psychologists who manage to link
virtually every human experience back to childhood sexual trauma, culture critics find a way to
interpret every artistic expression through their own particular lens.
Lisa Ruddick, an English professor at the University of Chicago (an institution in the
running for the smartest and most forward-looking university of modem times) is one of a
growing number of dissidents challenging this orthodoxy. In her influential essay, "When
Cool,"
Nothing Is she describes how one scholar bizarrely used critical studies to turn Buffalo
Bill, the sadistic antagonist of Silence of The Lambs, into a gender-defying feminist hero.
By removing and wearing women's skin, Bill refutes the idea that maleness and

To a left-wing culture critic like this author, however, it's unacceptable that a movie

nothing is fun, garners were a nightmare.
Another problem for the feminists and left-wingers trying to attack gaming culture was
that it was naturally resistant to political correctness. Online video games were the original social
networks: garners were socializing and chatting on games like World of Warcraft and Runescape
years before Facebook and Twitter came into their own. And, crucially, communication in these
games tended to be anonymous. Like 4chan and Reddit, the furthest most people would come to

Gamers vs. Shamers
In the years preceding GamerGate, left-wing social justice warriors had tumed social
media into their personal playground. With the aid of web-savvy outlets like BuzzFeed, hawker
and The Guardian, they engaged in relentless public shaming campaigns to terrorize individuals,
businesses and organizations that failed to abide by their increasingly restrictive set of politically
correct norms. Justine Sacco, a communications executive whose life was upended after she
Iweeted a joke about white people not being able to catch All3$ (she was, believe it or not, trying
to make a point about white privilege) is the most wel known example, but there were dozens = cement ¼ss m cmm ne

more.
Video games did not escape the rise of public shaming. In May 2014, a small-time video
games developer, Russ Roegner, discovered his career was in jeopardy. No fewer than three
editors from major gaming publications had told him that if he didn't shut up, his future in the
industry was over.

are hard to frighten. During GamerGate, they came out in droves to show the world how
small and hysterical the public shamers really were.
A brief comparison between their online communities is all it takes to reveal the truth.
KotakulnAction, the leading R.eddit community for Gam.erGate supporters, has more than 70,000
subscribers, whereasGamerGhazi, the hub for feminists and social justice warriors in gaming,
has a mere 11,000. Feminist hashtags like #YesAllWomen and #BringBackOurGirls were lucky
if they maintained activity on Twitter for more than a month. The #GamerGate hashtag retained
high levels of activity over a year after its creation.
Through numbers and tenacity, garners broke the fear of social justice warriors. The
months following the controversy saw a full-scale backlash against social justice warriors.
Before GamerGate, victims of public shaming like Justine Sacco had virtually no allies in the
press. Many disagreed, but did not want to get on the wrong side of the social justice mobs. After
GamerGate, victims like Dr. Matt Taylor, the British astrophysicist who was driven to tears after

he was attacked for wearing a shirt featuring allegedly drawings of sci-fi women
could rely on an increasingly confident community of moderate liberals and conservatives who
loudly and sternly condemned their persecutors. The silence had been broken.
Unlikely Heroes
After GamerGate, never again will I mock garners as awkward losers. Well I mean, they
might be awkward (except that one with the chiseled jaw and wavy brown hair that I met in
D.C), but they're definitely not losers. In a Breitbart column on the movement's one-year

ended up saving the world . In retrospect, it's perhaps not so surprising that a bunch of people
who spend all their spare time conquering kingdoms, killing dragons, and racking up high scores
isn'
knew how to win. After all, isn't that the end goal of all video games?
The left didn't know what they were getting themselves into when they went after video
games. This was the hobby of the millennial enjoyed -

generation, by millions around the world
often together. What chance did the left have, with their usual allegations of bigotry, against such
a naturally diverse hobby? The sight of the left attacking innocent garners as a menacing force of
intolerance was laughable.
Social justice warriors still haven't learned their lesson years later, by the way. When the
character Tracer from the popular multiplayer game Overwatch was unveiled as a lesbian, SJWs
en masse gloated over what they anticipated would be a gamer outcry against a gay character. In
fact the only outrage was from SJWs who were upset that the gamemakers had_picked the girl
with the hot ass to be the dyke. Gamer reaction ranged from not caring since it didn't affect the
game to reposting lesbian porn they had made of Tracer months previously.
But perhaps the fears of the left weren't so hysterical. After all, garners were the first
group of people to beat the left in the millennial culture wars. Their tactics helped inspire the
cultural libertarians, the sad puppies, and was the first coming-together of the movement that put
Trump in the White House. When The Washington Post called Donald Trump the "GamerGate

WHY MY COLLEGE TOUR IS SO AWESOME
It was humiliating. Vile. I was in the middle of a speech at Rutgers University in New
Jersey, and three hysterical young ladies in the audience had stood up and smeared what looked

like pericd blood on their faces, before hysterically shrieking "BLACK LIVES over
and over.
None of the students, incidentally, were black. Perhaps they had been inspired by Shaun
King;?
"blood"
I later discovered that the was fake, but that didn't make it any less absurd, or
any less troublesome for the janitors, who had to deal with the trail of red paint left by the
protesters after their two minutes of fame were up. Peaceful attendees who had come to hear a
speech instead found themselves splashed with fake blood, while at least one attendee was
assaulted by a protester who deliberately smeared him with the stuff.
More surprising to me than the protests at Rutgers, which was par for the course on
college campuses, was what happened the following morning.
I awoke to a stream of messages about the fact that administrators at Rutgers were
offering a therapy session to students who had been shaken by my presence on campus. Yes, you
heard that correctly - students at Rutgers were so traumatized

administration held a group therapy session.

Those who attended the event reported that students described "feeling scared, hurt, and

It's really pretty flabbergasting when you think about it -- if a few comments from me
about the free and open exchange of ideas are enough to put college students in a therapy
session, what's going to happen to them when they encounter someone who's actually intolerant
and bigoted? Have 8 heart attack, I presume. Thank God it's the Kurds fighting ISIS, and not
American millennials.

and take the fight to them in meatspace. It sure was fun triggering them on the

Soon after Rutgers, I arrived at Bucknell University, a small liberal arts college located in
the sleepy rural town of Lewisburg, Pennsylvania. The chaos at my previous stop brought me the
attention of the administrators there, who booted me from the on-campus guest residence over
concerns that I presented a safety threat to the community. As if I might corrupt the basketball
team or something. I was relocated to an unassuming hotel that was located right next to a high-
security penitentiary. I wasn't upset, but that doesn't mean I wasn't alarmed by the paranoia of
Bucknell's administration.
By Thursday evening, Bucknell administrators had decided that students wouldn't be
to speak to me directly, but rather that they'd have to write their questions down on an
index card, with my host Tom Ciccotta reading them aloud to me. Furthermore, the Bucknell
University Conservatives Club wouldn't be permitted to film the event. Instead, the
administration would film the lecture and then release the footage to Tom in the event that the
proceedings didn't reflect poorly upon the university.
Shortly after I left Bucknell, Tom was removed from his position as class president for

incidents in which the social justice leftists who run the modern American university were
revealed to be a nasty and toxic influence on the lives of young students all around the country.
But what really struck me was the fear of Bucknell's administrators: they really believed
that I was such a threat, such a corrupting influence on young minds that I couldn't be allowed to
SS0033953
231
speak to students directly. Clearly, Bucknell believed my mocking, tongue-in-cheek moniker.
They thought I actually was dangerous!
Rutgers and Bucknell weren't oddities, either. As the first leg of my tour progressed, it
quickly became apparent that lunacy was the norm, not the exception, on American college
campuses. At the University of Pittsburgh, the Student Government Board held a meeting to
discuss my appearance on campus the previous evening. The student government president told

thousands of comments and shares. I was exposing the angry, and incredibly poorly dressed
underbelly of American campus politics, and the world was rapt with attention.
By the time I reached Pittsburgh, it was only February 2016. I was not a month into my
tour, and had performed at fewer than six colleges -- yet it was clear that I'd tapped into

something potentially massive. And so, after a brief interlude at Breitbart's Los Angeles offices,
I was told to go out, double down, and be more outrageous than ever. And that I did.
By then, word had spread to other colleges that there was a dangerous faggot on the
loose. Th.is upped the quality of protesters significantly. I've already told you earlier in this book,

As my tour has gathered steam, the tactics used by frightened administrators to stop me
have gotten slimier and slimier. At the University of Alabama, administrators lulled my student

The groundswell of attention that the Rutgers incident brought to my tour forced organizers to
move my lectures to bigger venues. The 400 seat venue at Bucknell University filled to capacity
in just 15 minutes and another 50 students were turned away at the door. Were these students
simply seduced by the controversy and mystery surrounding me and my lectures, or was I
actually seeing the beginning of a revolution led by disenfranchised young folks who had been

I once thought I was hot enough that nothing would make it easier for me to pick up
dates. It turns out I was wrong, having a tour bus with my face and name on it helps
tremendously. Driven by our grumpy but loveable bus driver Rich, Anita the Fagbus was soon to
be spotted on dozens upon dozens of college campuses. After my early successes in triggering
America's college crybabies, the invitations had come pouring in. We would start in Texas, wind
our way through Louisiana's coastline down into Florida, and then drive up through Georgia,
Alabama, and the Carolinas to the east coast, leaving a trail of furious college lefties and jubilant
college conservatives in our wake.
This time, we were doing it properly. I had a full camera crew with me, a creative
director, two speechwriters, a personal trainer, and some guy I kept around to carry my bags and
manage my ever-accumulating wardrobe. We had a disciplined and organized tour manager who
booked us the finest Courtyard by Marriotts in all the land. We had some of the finest memesters

we fight back against an American educational system that provides coloring books, warm
and emotional support puppies to students who can't handle my lovely, unthreatening
friend Christina Hoff Sommers stepping onto their campuses?
A big part of why I've been so successful is that I know how to have fun, and so do my
fans. Conservatives typically don't have fun. When I think of an American conservative, I think
of intelligent and stuffy politicians like Ted Cruz, who, while brilliant, puts me to sleep. faster

plan Milo events of their own. My inbox was constantly overflowing with messages from
students who resonated with the message that I was bringing around the country.
My Dangerous Faggot Tour has made great strides in the battle that is being waged on the
American college campus. Despite the setbacks and punishments laid out by regressive
administrators who want nothing more than to halt our progress, we have earned several
significant victories along the way. After my visit to Rutgers, university president Robert Bachi

released a in which he reaffirmed the institution's commitment to free speech and
academic freedom:
"Both academic freedom and our First Amendment rights are at the core of what we do.
Our University policy on speech is clear. All members of our community enjoy the rights of free
expression guaranteed by the First Amendment. Faculty members, as private citizens, enjoy the
same freedoms of speech and expression as any private citizen and shall be free from
institutional discipline in the exercise of these rights. In addition, they also enjoy academic
freedom of expression when functioning in their roles as faculty members...While I will not

At Emory University in Atlanta, Georgia, students protested and rallied outside of the
office of the president after students took to the campus sidewalks with chalk to express pro-
Trump sentiments. The special snowflakes at Emory University told reporters that they felt
threatened by the pro-Trump studnets, and that the campus was no longer a safe space for them.
I knew immediately that I had to make a trip to Atlanta. When I finally made it to Emory,
there was a significant amount of anxiety from students concerned over my impending arrival.
Although they spent time preparing signs and chants, their protest efforts were largely ignored.
The event was so well-attended that students filled the hall around the venue, listening to the
event and hoping to get a chance to peek in. At the end of my typical lecture, I led the Emory
students out onto a center quad, and encouraged them all to express themselves on the sidewalk.

This wasn't our only victory at Emory. Shortly after my visit, Emory University president
James W. Wagner took a piece of chalk himself to the sidewalk right next to where I had laid
down my own message, and wrote in big letters "EMORY STANDS FOR FREE
EXPRESSION."
In turns out that Wagner attended Emory for his undergraduate studies. In a statement
that he released, he spoke about the importance of viewpoint diversity on college campuses and
the role that it played in his own education:
"It was always [a] great, friendly, challenging discussion that really taught you to
think,"
critically Wagner said, noting the discussions helped to both hone his political opinions
and prepare him for his career as an attorney. "I took that with me to law school where I was

At a high school in Des Moines, Iowa in September 2015, an ageing, soon-to-be-

Be Twice As Funny As You Are Outrageous
Does anyone remember how the alt-right died? Many reading this book will, but here's a
refresher: a colossal idiot called Richard Spencer was allowed to take control of the movement.
An out-and-out white nationalist, Spencer was offensive without being funny. He did his best to

ideas. He was having forbidden ideas and trying to transplant the fun in afterwards.

the entire alt-right. It was the first victory of the mainstream since his election.
I want people to be allowed to make jokes about, and discuss anything that they want. I
don't think people should be ostracized for doing so. I don't fear the ideas of people like
Spencer, nort do I feel a need to hide them from view, because I have enough trust in ordinary
people to examine and reject them on their own. Sunlight is the best disinfectant.
Nevertheless, if you find yourself in a position where even Mike Cemovich and Paul

defend the right of people to make jokes about whatever they choose, and mercilessly attack
people who want to destroy the lives of 20-somethings over alt-right memes and 4chan trolling
campaigns. But they are not Spencer. If Spencerwas just trolling, as he said, he would have

history. The media, academia, and pop culture are all working overtime to get them to believe
falsehoods. They are naturally offended when this fragile worldview is faced with reality, which
is one of the reasons why so many of the younger generation retreats into safe spaces. However,
you cannot spare their feelings.
The only way to beat propaganda is to spread the truth faster than the machine spreads

This is one of the most important requirements of being a Dangerous Faggot, and
probably the most important reason behind my repeated victories.
What do leftists do when they get together? Well, if college safe spaces are any guide,
they sit in a circle and share their feelings with each other. They 'll talk about how unsafe they

feel, and gently pat each other on the shoulders. In public, they'll get angry, yell slogans, and
whine about how offended they are by our side's words.

Establishment conservatives do a little better on the "sense of scale, but you can

mistrust overly-senous establishment conservatives, and that's why re so at odds with the

We live in an age where one side of the political spectrum would like all debate, all

scared. Scared that their political, social and cultural consensus, carefully constructed and
of'
nurtured over the past few years, with its secular religions of feminism, enforced diversity,
multiculturalism, and casual hatred for straight white males, is built on a foundation of sand.
They have watched as the threats to their order, and the worldview it represents, multiply.
They have watched the dream of multiculturalism die at the hands of Islam, despite all their
attempts to downplay and cover up the atrocities.
constructed'
They have watched as the idea of "socially genders and races, once dogma
in the academy, slowly fades into irrelevancy, swept away by a new wave of research on the
innate roots of our identities, despite all attempts to suppress it.
They have seen their stranglehold on culture, once so steely and strong, slip away.
Comedians grow tired of language codes. Movie directors and video game designers grow tired
of the demands for diversity quotas, of attacks over the representation of women and minorities,
and long to taste creative freedom once more. Artists, ever longing to provoke and challenge,
slowly wake up and realize that to be left-wing today is to be the establishment.
It's a scary time to be a leftist. So it's little wonder that even I'm considered to be
dangerous, with my mild demands for free speech on campuses, my fact-based objections to
1'
feminism and black lives matter, and my wariness of the sexism and homophobia that drifts
slowly westward from the swamp of modern Islam.
Those who are frightened of free speech, whether it's ideas and facts that challenge their
side, or jokes that prod at their carefully-constructed social taboos, are almost always frightened

If you're looking for someone to blame for the whole Milo thing, here are a few people
who ought to be in your crosshairs. My editor at Breitbart, Alex Marlow, has perhaps the best
news judgment of any journalist working today and has saved me from plenty of near-misses. I
wouldn't be where I am without him. My deputy, Allum Bokhari, without whom this book
would never have got off the ground, is a major journalistic talent and will, I'm sure, eclipse me
when I finally collapse unconscious onto a pile of Nigerian rent boys.

produce the best pop album of 2017. You shaped my thinking and I am forever grateful. One day
