(On the openly advocating bit. I think his comments were considerably more nuanced than that.)

I just prefer facts to kneejerk reactions.
I assume everyone around here very much enjoyed the Brass Eye 2001 Special, but I'm wondering if a lot of people missed the point.

I was just hoping someone was going to back you up,
so I could call them a paedo apologist apologist apologist.

Fair enough.
I completely missed the tone.
Unlikely for anyone to join in on this side I think; the topic is way too toxic for most people!

Actually I was calling you a paedo apologist apologist,
I was just joking about the other bit.

Well in that case I'm just calling you a peado.
And cutting out all the middlemen.

Well then, thank goodness I don't take comments on this irreverent comedy website seriously.

literally five seconds of googling would have answered your question.

I'm not in the habit of googling such things at work.
And remember, the onus for providing evidence is always on the one making the claim, not the listener that they're trying to convince.
I'll check those out later and give you a proper response.
Edit: I have checked those out.
The first link is barely even about the guy at all; it mentions his comments only to frame them in terms of an inaccurate interpretation by a specific Vox journalist. It then heads off on a tangent about ultra-conservative politics in the 1970s and earlier (which is what the article is actually about). Milo's name is quite clearly just being used as clickbait in that article.
The second link is indeed relevant. And very clearly shows that his comments were a good deal more nuanced than that.
