Alas, there isn't really anything there about what he has been saying, just someone else saying he's a terrible person. Well, okay, but I'd like to make my own mind up about whether someone is hateful or not. The best I can tell is that he can be an asshole.

  > Well, okay, but I'd like to make my own mind up about whether someone is hateful or not. Bit odd for you to be so concerned about making up your own mind, yet be so reliant on other people providing you sources.

    If someone makes a claim, the onus is on them to provide compelling evidence to justify that claim. Besides, I have taken a preliminary look; Milo seems to be an outspoken asshole (and thus poisoning the discourse), but not an outright hateful bigot... feel free to provide evidence to the contrary.

      No no, feel free to do a bit of Googling and find out for yourself.

      Pretty sure you're expected to do your own research here. What do you think this is, Reddit?

  > Alas, there isn't really anything there about what he has been saying, just someone else saying he's a terrible person. This is a good characterization of the media's overall response to twitter's banning of Milo. Everyone just keeps saying "he's a terrible person" in dozens of different forms - some rather extreme - but rarely is any real evidence presented. If they present any evidence at all, they cherry pick and take things out of context.
