        I think the point is that Greenwald didn't always suck and it can hurt to see (even -- or perhaps especially -- well-justified) hatred of someone who was great and you grew attached to.

      He went full MAGA a few years ago. He is not well liked, to put it mildly. You don't have to cry for him any more than people cried for Herman Cain.

      It sucks to hear so much ragging on him.

      Oh no, how awful that i'm ragging on a grifter who makes money by contributing to the planned genocide against me and everyone i love. So sad! Fuck Glen Greenwald, fuck you for standing up to him and fuck every single one of the 11 gullible idiots who upvoted your post. Death to all transphobes.

        Jfc.

        Guilt by association. I know of none of what you’re talking about. If he’s on record as being transphobic - and “contributes to the planned genocide” - then please produce the evidence. That’s serious.

        Admittedly I haven’t followed his career in the past few years as closely. Whenever he offers media criticism or points out the hypocrisy of the Dem party I’ve found his critiques to almost always be among the best.

        AFAIC there’s way too much canceling of everyone. Frankly, I don’t find him full MAGA - at all.

        I should also like to point out that lately a lot of excellent, career Left writers or commentators have garnered larger followings (benefiting from Trump’s loss) of RWers, who ostensibly were looking for new voices willing to criticize the Dem Party. Which is much different than actually being a supporter of RW politics.

        That said, I’m willing to hear people out.

          He's done nothing but punch left, post groomer narratives and other MAGA stuff for the last couple of years, it's his entire thing nowadays. And it's not a criticizing Biden from the left kind of thing, either, he's just done a full heel turn. I'm sorry if you only know him from before that happened, but he's just not the same anymore.

      Glenn has spent the past couple years boosting and protecting those who spend all their time trying to hurt trans people with grooming allegations and social contagion narratives, he is a fucking worm and if he and his husband didn't have kids, the only valid argument I can see for leaving him alone right now is that it would be a waste of breath.

        This, Fashwald is absolute filth and should be lined up against the wall with Tucker and the other trans genocide pundits. I have zero pity for this monster and i hope he's crying his eyes out rn, he deserves much much worse than this. It's sickening to read apologia for this ghoulish grifter bastard on here just because he used to occassionally do some good work before the Guardian became an MI5 outlet.

      What a shit comment. Chapo.chat please improve your media literacy for once.

      Do you even know who David Miranda actually is or is he just a name and the only thing you knew is "he was married with Glenn" ?

      He is black, from poor background, LGBT representative in an extremely reactionary country. But lets crucify him because he made a poor choice in his personal life.

      Fucking Glenn himself is absolutely completely irrelevant to Brazil at this point and what little he did, like it or not helped Lula escape prison too.

      Also absolute asinine to quote another fairly important Brazilian leftist Boulos(one of the main candidates to lead post-Lula Brazil) as if that supports your argument.

      Anglo crackers to not alienate the third world for once challenge: Impossible.

      You must have had an undeserved moment of duper's delight when you came up with that very brave alt name. Surely none of these normie bugmen NPCs here would ever figure out the oh so subtle nazi clown babytalk "Frenworld" reference. :sus-soviet:
