Along with the rest of the world,Fantasy Movies | Adult Movies Online actress Leslie Jones recently learned that despite being banned from Twitter, Breitbart editor and notorious Alt-right troll Milo Yiannopoulos managed to secure a $250,000 book deal.
The Ghostbustersstar, who was the victim of racial abuse at the hands (or Twitter fingers) of the conservative pundit in 2016, is not too pleased about the Yiannopoulos' opportunity.
In July 2016, Yiannopoulos wrote a harshly negative review of Jones's film, Ghostbusters, which awakened fellow Twitter trolls and led to a tirade of racism and harassment towards the actress. Yiannopoulos was blocked for his controversial tweets and Jones took a temporary leave from the social media site.
On Monday, Jones responded to the news of Yiannopoulos's book deal with several disapproving tweets -- even directing one at the publisher's account.
SEE ALSO: Alt-right troll Milo Yiannopoulos got a big book deal and Twitter is furiousAccording to The Hollywood Reporter, Yiannopoulos's book Dangerous, is expected to be published this March by the Simon & Schuster imprint, Threshold Editions. In response to a request for comment from Mashableon Dec. 29, Threshold Editions sent a press release which said Dangerous"will be a book on free speech."
Looking at Yiannopoulos's past statements, it's easy to see how people -- especially Jones -- could find the book deal troubling.
On Dec. 30, after negative backlash following the book deal's announcement, Simon & Schuster released a statement via Twitter explaining it does not condone discrimination or hate speech in any form.

Though Jones made her triumphant return to Twitter following the ordeal, she still had a few choice words for Simon & Schuster regarding their decision to sign Yiannopoulos.
The SNL actress replied to the publisher, stating that the book deal does nothing but help Yiannopoulous spread hate.

Though she did not mention Yiannopoulous on her personal platform, later in the afternoon Jones tweeted another message of discouragement, explaining she's "So tired of stupid people!"

Don't ever stop saying sh*t, Jones.
