    Facebook will end up deeming leftist content too radical and booting it, killing critically important political discourse as well as my ability to make a living.

    This is exactly what they fear as well, congrats nathan. Their fear of getting cancelled is precisely that - they’ll lose job and living of punditry, so they preemptively drift to where they can find shelter. Additionally, glenn is a liberal to the core, so that part is completely unsurprising. The guy would have defended der sturmer freedom of speech, if given the chance (taibbi as well, but he is softer on that I think).
