I can't believe CSUF would even consider doing something like this at this time. And if they cancel, it only makes the troll stronger.

Update: Apparently the gig has been scheduled for Halloween of this year.

Maybe he should try to learn guitar and do catchy youtube songs or something. His act is finished.

...is because Rebekah Mercer* is "enamored" of mr. milo, and willing to suckle the beast at her financial teat.

Look for milo to become as shocking as possible during his media decline, i.e. "the ann coulter effect." If we pay him no attention, he truly will go away.

Forget about him. He will fade away and the right will turn on him because he will be useless to them.

On the same platform if possible. At the closest available venue if not possible.

They like to get PR and stir up trouble so they can get more bookings as guest speakers and lucrative book deals.

Don't protest or attend. If anyone goes, it should be a person or two to document attendance.

That is the only thing that is going to push him back into the spotlight. I really wish people would get the hint that they should refrain from attending and handing him exactly what he most wants.
