Comedian and “Ghosbusters” actress Leslie Jones’ revenge campaign against Milo Yiannopoulous hit a fever pitch yesterday. TheWrap’s got all the juicy deets:

Stand back and see how she put Simon & Schuster subsidiary Threshold Books “in its place” for its book deal with Milo (tweets via TheWrap):

Here’s where it gets really, really good, you guys:
yea but you still help them spread their hate to even more people.
— Leslie Jones ? (@Lesdoggg) January 2, 2017
Bonus: After “getting into it with other Twitter members,” Jones tweeted this:
I literally want to put hands to a jaw right now. So tired of stupid people!! And I can't say shit cause if I do I'm the "bitch"!!
— Leslie Jones ? (@Lesdoggg) January 2, 2017
We understand if you need to take a few minutes to sit down and collect yourselves. What a beat-down, right?
The putting of the place happened in the tweet. Bang!

Wrong.
*Whispers She didn't really put Simon and Schuster in it's place

Getting pissy at a publisher for making a deal with a guy you don’t like isn’t putting them in their place; it’s just getting pissy (and taking a swipe at free speech, to boot).
And proves that she hates free speech even if it's only written down. ? so tolerant
