Add WikiLeaks to the roster of Milo Yiannopoulos’s unlikely new bedfellows.
The conservative provocateur — banned on Twitter over his role in online abuse meted out to Ghostbusters actress Leslie Jones — once described the classified information leakers as “an unsustainable project,” adding Wikileaks was “doomed.”
But Wikileaks has taken time out of its busy doc-disclosing schedule to engage in a verbal battle with Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey who is understood to have personally made the call to eject Milo off the site. While many liberals and SJWs have delighted in Milo’s Twitter demise, Wikileaks joins a growing liberal movement hitting out at the microblogging social network for silencing Milo.

However Wikileaks wasn’t impressed with Dorsey’s platitudes and floated the idea of creating its own social network.
An alliance between Milo and Wikileaks would likely not be for long — but it also definitely wouldn’t be dull.
