MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE HIR MILO YIANNOPOULOS — A 37-YEAR-OLD 'EX-GAY' FORMER BREBART EDOR ONCE DISVED OM CPAC FOR 'NDONG PEDOPHILIA' — AS AN TERN
Once a leadg figure on the "alt-right," Yiannopoulos me out as "ex-gay" after makg ments seen as fendg pedophilia 2017. * milo yiannopoulos gay alt right *
Marjorie Taylor Greene has hired "ex-gay" alt-right provotr Milo Yiannopoulos as an tern. "So I have an tern that was raped by a prit as a young teen, was gay, has offend everyone at some pot, turned his life back to J and Church, and changed his life, " she said.
"I thk particularly the gay world, and outsi the Catholic Church — if that's where some of you want to go wh this — I thk the gay world some of the most important, enrichg and credibly life-affirmg, important shapg relatnships very often between younger boys and olr men, " he said a 2016 podst. Yiannopoulos, who intified at the time as gay, now lls himself "ex-gay" and claimed last year to be buildg a nversn therapy clic Florida.
OUT-GAY, ALT-RIGHT: THE TWO MILOS
The pa tensifi when I beg to thk that Milo Yiannopoulos might be the first gay role mol for imprsnable young mds. The week of Valente’s Day, Jeremy Shill, edor of The Intercept, nceled his appearance on Real Time wh Bill Maher bee he refed to share the stage wh the out-gay-Catholic-alt-right blogger. Although the terview self was nothg special, Maher enthed about Yiannopoulos as the send g of Christopher Hchens — only gay — and said he would be happy to have the young provotr on his show aga.
MILO YIANNOPOULOS CLAR HIMSELF EX-GAY AND SAYS HE’S ‘MOTED’ HBAND TO HOEMATE BIZARRE NEW TERVIEW
Clearly, the folks at CPAC and Brebart simply uldn’t stomach hearg their gay mn — who had certaly been outspoken before about his preference for “black ck” — speak out about his prolonged relatnship wh a Catholic prit when he was 14. Milo Yiannopoulos is an out gay man.
In the clip, Yiannopoulos bat the subject of gay marriage wh none other than genr-bendg in of the ’80s, Boy Gee. Morator David Mchell troduc Milo as a “wrer for the Catholic Herald, who is Catholic and gay.
” Then he troduc the other gut as “a mician and sger, who is also — I was surprised to learn — gay. Poor Milo — his hair buzzed on the sis, wh curly ged bangs droopg down — seems to sheepishly shg, “I’m gay, if that’s okay? G., heterosexual unns are the “glue of society” — but the discsn tak a weird turn when he adms to Mchell, Boy Gee, and the stud dience that he wish he wasn’t gay — a strange psychologil ball to drop the middle of a bate.
MILO YIANNOPOULOS SAYS HE IS ‘EX-GAY,’ WANTS TO REHABILATE ‘NVERSN THERAPY’
You n practilly see Milo the Gay wrtlg wh Milo the Catholic. Boy Gee trounc him the bate, aid by the dience’s clear support for gay marriage.
MILO YIANNOPOULOS AND THE GAY FASCIST SOPHISTITE
Five years later, durg the terview on Real Time, Bill Maher, after mentng that Milo is gay, epts to lghter, chortlg “Spoiler alert! Five years ago, Boy Gee may have appeared the more flamboyant of the two, but the most outrageo thg he said the bate was, “I thk gay marriage is a b nservative. ” Perhaps bee, like Cohen, he is performg a parodic versn of hyperbolic gayns (though whout the remptn of self-nscns), Milo don’t know when to pull back.
He actually fs the mold for a Brebart blogger except for that gay thg. Surely an out-gay stigator wasn’t gog to last very long wh an alt-right publitn.
