Earlier this week, Breitbart Tech Editor Milo Yiannopoulos received a lifetime ban from Twitter for accusing Ghostbusters star Leslie Jones of “play[ing] the victim” during an online spat she was having with others on the social networking site. The comment came after Jones retweeted several racist comments she received for her role in the controversial 1980s movie remake. None of the racist comments came from Milo himself.
Yiannopolous’ ban was explained by Twitter representatives as a result of the company’s bigger focus on combatting “targetted abuse” on their site. Yiannopoulos claimed that the social network was instead attempting to silence conservative opinion.
Now, recent developments on the online social networking site are giving Yiannopoulos’ claim a huge boost in credibility.
Pat Smith, whose son died in the September 11th Benghazi attacks, took to the stage of the Republican National Convention this week in order to expose the lies she was told by Hillary Clinton. In response, a man in a similar position as Yiannopoulos — a writer at GQ — wrote something far worse about Smith on Twitter. Of course, he has yet to be banned from the site.
See the offensive tweet by GQ writer Bethlehem Shoals on the next page:
he needs to be more compassionate to people.
I just cannot figure out what turned the left into such hateful people. If a person on the right said something like that about one of the black parents of a murdered black child that Hillary is going to have speak at the Democratic Convention, they would call for their head. Can’t wait to see what he says about parents of thugs talking about their criminal kids. Oh, I’m sure he will have all the sympathy for THEM.
I wonder how he treated Cindy Sheenan
I say they should take this$#%&!@*hole and put his$#%&!@*out on the front line in a war zone.
And they Trump a $#%&!@* The vitriol towards this woman is disgusting. The libs embraced Sheehan, but scorn the his woman. Hillary and Barry caused the deaths of 4 Americans by their inaction.
The 1% must be rolling on the ground laughing their asses off. Divide and conquer is how they roll…and this script is old as$#%&!@*
This guy does not need to be a magazine or in any country that would say anything like that he needs to be locked up in a sanitarium
He is a despicable piece of trash.
M****F***** needs his$#%&!@*kicked
Someone would really like to beat him
