Mizzou Hunger Strike Guy Posted a Video of Himself Dancing Alone to a Song about One-Night Stands

Jonathan Butler has also been dropped by his talent-booking agency.

Things are looking worse for University of Missouri social-justice protest leader Jonathan Butler.

After the release of some of his videos and blog posts from five years ago featuring him saying misogynistic and classist things, his talent-booking agency has dropped him. Now, Heat Street’s Jillian Melchior has uncovered even more material that paints him in a less than favorable light.

Some of it is just plain weird. For example, a video of him dancing around alone to a song about a one-night stand. It starts off with him sitting at a computer, and text appears on the screen that states “I GOT a job And the weekend is 5 minutes away So what should I do to celebrate? How about#..#A One Night Stand?” before he starts dancing around alone to a song about how “a one-night stand is all I need.”


While I really make no judgments on what people like to do in their personal sex lives, I’ve got to say that publishing a video like this of yourself seems like a pretty damn weird thing to do.

In another video, he says that not only does he hate capitalism (which we probably could have guessed, given his harcore leftist beliefs) but also that America itself has “pissed [him] off.” In the video, he’s walking around a Wal-Mart and cannot seem to understand why one camera costs more than the other cameras.

He rants:

“Really, America? Is this what we’ve come down to? I don’t know. It’s just been a rough night. I’ve been thinking about life. And America just kind of pissed me off.”




Then, the text “Capitalism Kills” and “Don’t Buy into America’s Hype” then appear on the screen.
