We're all classical liberals actually. The left are just regular ass fascists.

He is only saying this now because Darren Beatty at revolver.news has the receipts. The fake news has been lying about the officer's death because all the deaths at the peaceful protest were Trump supporters caused by the police. They are hiding the autopsy and they cremated the body without the family's permission to coverup the cause of death.

Now they are trying to claim he was sprayed with bear spray causing a stroke. This despite him calling his family after the protest and telling them he was fine. The guy had a stroke from the stress. Bear spray is stage two of the lie. Typical communist narrative control.

Just like they cremated Scalia. Burn the evidence. Sick.

He acknowledged Revolver News too. He isn't taking credit. Just calling them out. Also pointed out how the media lied about the Pulse Nightclub shooting too.

This was the story I heard on the radio coming out of DC the next morning. Bear scary, stroke, and prayers for his health.... there was no mention of a head injury.

Regular ass fascists want total submission of public and private life to the state - nazis are the ones that made fascism about the nation.

Regular fascists want to help their nation... at all costs and so long as it lines up with their view of how things should be. Anyone who disagrees is an undesirable and, logically, the best answer would be to eliminate them.

Many leftists who are high IQ people (as opposed to highly credentialed leftists who think they are smart because of a piece of paper) are actually waking up and becoming terrified of the machine that is being created.

What are some other examples besides Greenwald? I want this to be true, I just haven't really seen it. Also, there's I think there is a big difference between a Liberal and a Leftist. Demoncrats in America have almost completely forsaken the former for the latter in only 5-10 years.

I haven’t followed him in a while but I remember Alan Dershowitz was decent. He was always on tucker.

I've met a lot of progressive activists that were genuinely against corruption. They get systemically drowned out by corporate neoliberals. Neoliberalism is choking the party to death with the hands of identity politics. They don't care about the racist bigoted labels they're forcing down everyone's throats. They only want to use that position to dominate others into accepting corporate rule, and enforcement of their shifting schizophrenic values.

The Sanders supporters got a big whiff of this corruption and they were marginalized and silenced further while Bernie was brought into the fold.

Greenwald is the type of progressive that the constitutionalist right would have caucused with in the past. Today, the neocon/neoliberal alliance has found a way to survive and suppress the honest political grassroots movements.

American liberalism is dead. They've been replaced by social media addicted virtue signalers who consumer products from NYT. It makes them feel as if they have authority and a smug sense of unearned moral superiority.

Greenwald, for his faults, understands this better than anyone.

What if I told you that everything you all believed in was a lie and that we're in this mess because of unchecked liberalism (yes, in the classical sense)? It's what led to the moral decay that's got us to this point.

Matt Tiabbi has been on fire on Twitter lately, being attacked by liberals. He's doing fine fending their feeble attacks off, though.

My two favorite journalists are him and Glenn. They give zero fucks.

Jimmy Dore. Aaron Mate. Called the "Russian Collusion" story bullshit from the start.

Eric Weinstein and Bret Weinstein. I know several personally as well but they aren't famous. They have an "I really don't like Trump because of ... but I agree that the media and social media have completely lost credibility because [insert redpill story]."

I think they're still on the journey. Both hold illogical opinions regarding MAGA/Trump. They don't understand what "uniparty" really means. Even policy wise there's essentially no difference between the two parties, yet people still think they're diametrically opposed. They're conditioned in this way and its hard to break that when it cracks the foundation of your political understanding.

Dr. Jill Biden earned her Education Doctor degree, She once Even taught at a community college!

What a strange way to live your life, buying your delusional self worth.

Mrs. Jill Biden's 'doctorate' is in 'Educational Leadership,' which is basically doctrinaire woke nonsense, not a real subject. Look up 'educational leadership' on the internet to get an idea of what it is.

I would be very cautious of Glenn Greenwald. Much of what he's been saying about American politics for the past several years has been very sensible. You could even call it brave. But on some other issues e.g. the impeachment of Brazil's former president he constantly spread what could only be described as fake news.

There he was basically carrying water for the Brazilian left, who kept calling the impeachment a "coup" even though it's predicted in the constitution and was executed completely lawfully. One sentence description: it's a crime for the president to borrow money without congressional approval, she borrowed money via executive order. She was also deeply unpopular within and outside the government, and utterly incapable of compromising and making deals. It was her way or the highway, so during her presidency nothing got done.

The fact that the release of Snowden's leaks has essentially stopped is also somewhat suspect.

So, long story short, I don't get Greenwald. I think the fact that he's living in a foreign country which he's actively trying to destabilize, together with The Intercept's overall handling of Snowden's leaks, at least suggest the possibility that the guy is CIA, NSA, or otherwise swamp.
