Does he actually claim he's not a Nazi? Because his gab pfp is him doing a sieg heil in front of a black sun and describes himself as America's #1 antisemite. Imagine how much you gotta suck to perceive yourself as the premier antisemite in the U.S.
Better Call Glenn
"Greenwald also spent roughly five years defending the First Amendment rights of neo-Nazis, including Matthew Hale, the "Pontifex Maximus" of the Illinois church formerly known as the World Church of the Creator, one of whose disciples went on a murderous spree in 1999.
"I almost always did it pro bono," Greenwald said. "I was interested in defending political principles that I believed in. I didn't even care about making money anymore."
I was interested in defending political principles that I believed in [by defending nazis pro bono]
This should be the textbook example of the damage in putting ideology over material reality
This moron gets Tony Veppo lawboy esquire. "Your honor, my fuckin' client isn't a fuckin' nazi, capiche?"
there was one guy who famously on a murder trial said "I'm not just a murderer I am a committed nazi and wish that to be taken account in sentencing"
you may be wondering what was he on trial for. A deal to hand over millions worth of rights to illegal nazi death metal music in exchange for the return of stolen plastering tools that went south and ended in him killing the other guy
Isn't he implied to be Jewish? (Else his name would be "Paul")
No, his real name is Jimmy McGill, and he is of Irish ancestry. This is mentioned the first time he shows up in Breaking Bad.
In Better Call Saul, after being called "Jimmy" for the first four seasons, he changes his name to Saul Goodman as a business decision.
I really need to watch those shows but keep putting off :saul-stare: :kitsuragi-depress:
Been planning to since I heard it dunks on the Nancy Pelosi analogue.
If that refers to what I think it refers to, it's more like there's a based character playing the role of a Nancy-Pelosi type to distract from their basicity.
They talk about it in Better Call Saul I think, he only does it for the fellas.
Incredible. Guy's so racist that he's swung back around to not believing the stereotype about the excellence of Jewish lawyers.
I think the idea is that he's afraid they'd deliberately tank his case.
yes but can I make a little joke about a racist being so racist he doesn't believe the racism?
Why does he want a constitutional lawyer and not a criminal defense attorney?
