I don’t care about the growing idpol rift in the media classes tho.

I dunno, I care. Glenn doing bi erasure was kinda hurtful personally as a bi person, when coming from a journalist I used to respect. And then he throws trans people under the bus like this. That's the whole point. If it was just some average chud saying this, then yeah who cares. But Glenn was the person that published the Snowden leaks, helped free Lula from prison with his journalism, etc. Yeah he had the occasional trash libertarian opinion but he was mostly good. He did lots of great journalism at the intercept after the guardian chased him out. Seeing him go off the deep end chasing chud media attention everywhere, hell maybe even becoming a chud himself, is just sad for a person that did so much good work in the past.
