He has said the UK National Health Service is an "abomination" which gives poor care in return for far too much money.
    
Yiannopoulos founded ''The Kernel'', an online tabloid magazine about technology, which he sold to Daily Dot Media in 2014. He rose to notability that year when he began to provide media coverage and commentary surrounding the [[GamerGate]] controversy. As a cultural libertarian and [[free speech]] fundamentalist, he is a vocal critic of fourth-wave [[feminism]], [[Islam]], political correctness, and other authoritarian movements and ideologies. He was permanently banned from [[Twitter]] in July 2016 for what the company cited as "inciting or engaging in the targeted abuse or harassment of others". In reality, he harshly criticized the movie Ghostbusters (2016), particularly criticizing lead actress Leslie Jones, an [[African-American]] woman. This prompted some of Yiannopulous' followers to verbally attack Jones, and Twitter and the [[mainstream media]] blamed him for such harsh attacks. Yiannopoulos gained huge public notoriety after he was scheduled to speak at the [[University of California]]-Berkeley in January 2017 about the myth of cultural appropriation, but had the event shut down by violent rioters who claimed to be fighting Yiannopoulos' allegedly [[racist]]" views.
