GG has always had stupid loving beliefs and letting morons trick you into framing supporting him as supporting his worldview or personal politics is stupid.
It was funny when he dunked on lovely libs, but developing a parasocial relationship with his twitter account allowed people to forget that the reason GG is important is he's a journalist who publishes important things, not because he himself is virtuous or a thought leader on the left or whatever. He could be a monarchist and the positive aspects of his existence would remain unchanged.

he reposted what she sent him exactly as is and the NSA was able to track her as a result. its a distinction without a difference. she's in prison as a direct result of his laziness

she was able to be tracked immediately because she sent it from her work computer using her work email, and Glenn Greenwald never worked on her story or handled her materials.

glenn greenwald was not on any of the bylines for the reality winner stuff. he had no involvement with the story at all. by that time the intercept had 50 journalists working in NYC. glenn greenwald was in brazil at the time, building the intercept brazil, and declined working on the story. if you want to blame someone at the intercept, blame micah lee and betsy reed

If you watch the video, he shits on metoo, and not in a "it was shamefully abandoned by libs" way. Dudes just a chud now.

Glenn has some really loving weird beliefs, but overall they don't really fit in with what I would consider chuddy.

if the majority of your hundreds of posts this year are in a thread dedicated to a single journalist your brain is a loving casserole

GG published two really really important and good stories idk why anyone talks about him unless he’s publishing something equally important. everything else he ever says about any topic other than the two specific awesome stories he wrote is really tedious at best

the GG defenders have to pick the very rare times he wasn’t the dumbest person in the room to use as evidence of how great he is, so of course they’re gonna just not talk about his latest idiocy
