I've wondered how Milo seems so resilient to criticism and seems to have balls of steel when confronting SJWs. Does he ever show vulnerability? When someone seems to be immune to criticism or overly confident in their "attacks" - this shows me he's got backing that take the heat off his own ego since he's not just representing himself.

Imagine a scenario when you're going to go to a protest and start trolling people or starting fights. Or you're going to protest and break windows and riot. You are a LOT more likely to do it if someone told you to do it or is paying you to do it. If you're just going alone, your own conscience "gets in the way." Just like people on the news, they can say outright lies because they are told to do it. Order followers.

It's like the Milgram Experiment where the people were much more likely to shock someone because a person of authority told them to do it.

Edit: Also, if he's "in character" this makes it a lot easier to not take any criticism personally. Like if you're acting or playing a role, then it's all fun and games. Like consensual BDSM where role playing helps one perform things on their lover without it being "personal."
