Change The Name Of The Game To "Punch An Asshole". Boom, Problem Solved.

That would be my solution to what Hartbart (AKA Willis V. Hart) finds "disturbing" in a 2/13/2017 commentary.

Willis Hart: On the Disturbing New Video Game, Punch a Nazi, in Which the Three Main Nazi Antagonists Are Richard Spencer, Milo Yiannopoulos, and Adolf Hitler. [see video below]. So the worst Nazi ever and two guys who've never once identified as such (and in the case of Mr. Yiannopoulos a person who the actual Nazis would have gone after on day one) - this is where the left is planting its flag these days. Unreal. And since when has been OK to bash a gay fellow (even in a virtual sense)? What, 'cause he's a conservative? Yeah, huh? (2/13/2017 at 9:15pm).

Some YouTuber playing the "disturbing" video game.

First of all, Richard Spencer absolutely IS a Nazi, AKA a "White Nationalist". Below is a video in which Spencer talks about the "burden" of being a White man (2:28). Note that at the end the audience applauds and many can be seen giving the Nazi salute.

Also, the following from Wikipedia...

Spencer... advocates for a white homeland for a "dispossessed white race" and calls for "peaceful ethnic cleansing" to halt the "deconstruction" of European culture.

As for Milo Yiannopoulos, he works for a Nazi (AKA "White Nationalist" website). I refer to Breitbart. So he's (at the very least) Nazi affiliated.

An excerpt from Milo's Wikipedia page...

[Milo calls himself] a "cultural libertarian" and "free speech fundamentalist"... he is a vocal critic of third-wave feminism, Islam, social justice, political correctness, and other movements and ideologies he deems authoritarian or belonging to the "regressive left". Yiannopoulos has been called a spokesperson for the alt-right, although he denies this even if he recognises that he may share some of their political views. He considers himself a reporter of and "occasional fellow traveller" with the movement.

Regarding Milo being gay and people (the Left; I take it Hartbart is implying) bashing him for it? I say BULLSHIT. Oddly enough, it's Milo who bashes gay people.

While Yiannopoulos is openly gay, he has stated that gay rights are detrimental to humanity, and that gay men should "get back in the closet". He has described being gay as "aberrant" and "a lifestyle choice guaranteed to bring [gay people] pain and unhappiness".

Jeez, what a piece of shit! This is why people are bashing him. One reason of several. Another being the fact that he is a misogynist troll with a history of harassing women online (OST #162). Something he is quite proud of (calling himself the "most fabulous supervillain on the Internet"). FYI, being gay should NOT bring people pain and unhappiness. It's because of intolerant assholes on the Right that gay people experience pain and unhappiness (also, if gay people should be in the closet, why isn't he?).

Anyway, that the Hartster finds this game "disturbing" and DEFENDS these assholes? THAT is what I find disturbing. Unreal (seriously WTF is wrong with morons like Hartbart?). BTW, Willis doesn't "identify" as a racist, but he is one none-the-less. Similiarly, that Spencer doesn't "identify" as a White Nationalist (he calls himself an "Identitatrian"), doesn't mean he isn't a Nazi.

On Willis Hart Defending Milo Yiannopoulos, A Misogynist Jackass With A History Of Encouraging His Twitter Followers To Harass Women

Willis Hart defends the "journalist, entrepreneur and technology editor for Breitbart.com" in a recent commentary.

Willis Hart: On the Fact that Twitter Had to Be Sued Before They Took Down the Tens of Thousands of ISIS Related Accounts but Didn't Hesitate One Second to Ban Milo Yiannopoulos Over Some Racist Tweets that His Followers Were Dishing Out.

The hypocrisy and double-standards of the left are really starting to reach critical-mass, I think, with this being a perfect example. I mean, we're talking about fucking ISIS here, for Christ. (7/21/2016 AT 3:58pm).

The lawsuit says Twitter knowingly permitted terrorists to use their network. However, according to Fortune magazine, such lawsuits (there have been a few) are likely to fail.

In any case, Hart's criticism involved Twitter not being vigilant enough in policing their membership and taking down such accounts when they find them. That is likely a valid criticism. I wouldn't know, as I haven't been following that story.

But is Twitter part of "the Left"? Willis asserts that Twitter is. A 7/20/2016 Washington Times article describes Twitter as a "progressive-leaning social media company". So, OK, they're part of "the Left". "Proof" they're out to get this Milo Yiannopoulos jackass? Or maybe they just banned him after issuing multiple warnings and suspending him temporarily several times.

The first suspension came in December of 2015 Twitter decided on because of Yiannopoulos' history of encouraging his followers to attack women (via tweet).

[Previously Yiannopoulos] told a female journalist that she "deserved to be harassed" in response to her complaints about threatening messages she had been receiving due to an article Yiannopoulus had written about her. (Wikipedia/Milo Yiannopoulos/Social Media).

Clearly his followers got the message after this incident. And, telling someone they "deserved to be harassed" sounds like a violation of Twitter's "speech and harassment codes" to me.

Yiannopoulos was suspended again in (June 2016) after "criticism of Islam [following] the 2016 Orlando nightclub shooting". Then came the 3rd strike less than a month later!

Yiannopoulos was permanently suspended from Twitter on 7/19/2016, after he and other users of the site participated in abuse towards Ghostbusters actress Leslie Jones. Yiannopoulos had published a critical review of the film the day prior to being banned. Shortly before the ban, he directly attacked Jones, calling her "barely literate" and describing her as a man. It was also alleged that he was orchestrating abuse.

...Twitter stated that "no one deserves to be subjected to targeted abuse online, and our rules prohibit inciting or engaging in the targeted abuse or harassment of others. ... We know many people believe we have not done enough to curb this type of behavior on Twitter. We agree". (Wikipedia/Milo Yiannopoulos/Social Media).

Yiannopoulos' response to the lifetime ban was to cry about bias against Conservatives, claiming that "Twitter has confirmed itself as a safe space for Muslim terrorists and Black Lives Matter extremists, but a no-go zone for conservatives".

Right. Even though this misogynist jackass had been warned twice previously. This, btw, is a common Conservative tactic. It's called working the refs. This tactic involves "complaining constantly about liberal media bias in an attempt to bully reporters and obtain more favorable coverage for their side".

But Yiannopoulos was banned because he deserved to be banned. According to a 7/20/2016 TIME story his "reputation as a troll on Twitter has long eclipsed his journalism" and [re his trolling] he calls himself the "most fabulous supervillain on the Internet".

Although that Willis Hart would take his side is not surprising, given how Yiannopoulos describes himself ideologically and politically.

He rose to notability that year when he began to provide media coverage and commentary surrounding the Gamergate controversy (a controversy that concerned issues of sexism and progressivism in video game culture, stemming from a harassment campaign conducted primarily through the use of the Twitter hashtag #GamerGate). As a self-identified homosexual, "cultural libertarian" and "free speech fundamentalist", he is a vocal critic of third wave feminism, Islam, social justice theory, political correctness and other movements and ideologies he perceives to be authoritarian and regressive. (Wikipedia/Milo Yiannopoulos).

So he's a hater of Black Lives Matter, Radical Marxist Feminists and SJWs just like the Hartster. There is no "double standard" at play here. All that happened was that a jerk and ACKNOWLEDGED troll who had been warned twice before, broke the rules again (making it clear that he had no intention of behaving himself), and was banned for life. As he should have been. End of story.

The only double standard here is that Willis wouldn't be complaining if it were a Leftist who was banned. Although, IMO, Conservatives are more likely to run into these kind of problems because they're so much more intolerant than Liberals. Most of their whines re "Liberal intolerance" concerning Liberal "intolerance" of Conservative bigotry and hate.

Proof that this is the truth are these "religious liberty" laws that Conservative legislatures have been trying to pass. Anti-gay, anti-transgender laws/sentiments that Willis Hart has defended by the way (with commentaries such as "On Making the Planet Safe from Christian Bakers"). This from a guy who claims that he's "socially tolerant". Bullshit!
