This afternoon, MILO publicly announced the release of his new book DANGEROUS, and the masses took to Twitter in a fit of rage.
It began with a Hollywood Reporter tweet to break the story, followed by an outburst in the tweet’s replies and across the timelines of Twitter.

The outpouring of hate for Breitbart’s resident gay thot from leftists quickly spread across the social network:
The guy has freedom of speech but to fund him & give him a platform tells me a LOT about @simonschuster YUCK AND BOO AND GROSS https://t.co/CNDUDOHzke

Shannon Coulter, creator of a who-to-boycott archive called “Grab Your Wallet,” believes MILO is undeserving of the book deal after his “harassment” of Ghostbusters (2016) actress Leslie Jones.
.@simonschuster are you concerned $250k book deal you gave Milo Yiannopoulos will read as condoning the racist harassment @Lesdoggg endured?

Simon & Schuster should be ashamed of giving vile Breitbart provocateur Milo Yiannopoulos $250K to publish book https://t.co/9mSqETG8I0

the only thing I want to read about Milo is his obituary

I bet the main reason men continue to have sex with Milo Naziopolis is they'll put most anything into his mouth to shut him up.

Simon & Schuster gave Milo a book deal in an effort to tap into the red-hot incel racist market

Problem with just shrugging at Milo book as free speech is that not everyone has the same level of access to platforms for speech.

I've met people who honestly believe that Milo represents the queer community. That's incredibly dangerous and I Want To Scream

If your ideas can't survive the existence of a book by Milo Yiannopoulos, they probably aren't very good to begin with.

Please update your style guides. The appropriate abbreviation for "Simon & Schuster" is now "SS". https://t.co/wlIE3qbPcV

Someone was going to give this POS a pile of money. But @simonschuster, it didn't have to be you. https://t.co/cEGWMIlLJ8

ARGH. Again: Milo isn't disliked because of his "controversial opinions". He's disliked because he relentlessly trolls & harasses people.
— Marie Le Conte (@youngvulgarian) December 29, 2016
Editors at @simonschuster could have said, "No, Milo we refuse to publish your book because you're racist and transphobic." But they didn't.

#Milo Simon & Schuster also printed this book, but somehow I doubt the left wing has a problem with it. pic.twitter.com/VkrFzADmXh

Milo Yiannopoulos getting a 250k book deal: yet another reason why indies are hustling to change the broken publishing industry.

Milo thrives off of people protesting him and trying to cancel his rants at colleges. He'd count his book being canceled as a win too
