@ryanlongcomedy She made explicitly clear that uncredentialed peasants like you do not deserve this power, blue-check-mark or not. Sorry! You'll need a job first with a CIA-funded think tank or corporate media outlet before you'll be considered a relevant, qualified person. Good luck! — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Cernovich This sector of left-liberal media is also desperate to avoid things like the Squad's vote to send $40b more to the war in Ukraine via Raytheon and CIA, and Biden's Dept. of Homeland Security creating a Disinformation Board, so they have to search for something to talk about. — PolitiTweet.org

@thebeardhunter0 Do you understand the meaning of the phrase in the highlighted part? https://t.co/PdcbTdPpR6 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@MrWestCoastCat @damnromulans But people endlessly argue about this. Bernie and AOC and Cori Bush and Ilhan insist they're on the left but if you say that, a gigantic army of leftists will descend upon you to say they're just liberals. — PolitiTweet.org

@NuanceBro Oh, awesome - I not only go to watch one of the most entertainingly deranged Cenk videos in history but also received a helpful Twitter tutorial. 👍 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@NuanceBro You're right. I never do that. I tried to use a site that produces a separate link of the video that shows you originated it, but the site wouldn't do it: https://t.co/ZKnEygR9zF I didn't use your tweet because it had language that would distract people. I'll note it now. — PolitiTweet.org

@damnromulans I'm aware of the distinction between the two factions (though nobody seems to be able to clearly define exactly what it is or who is where), but I'm also aware of the issues and views supported by both. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@islagiffidy Because he has the largest audience in all of political cable news, and if you actually believe in the things you're saying and work you're doing, you look for ways to maximize the numbers of people you can speak with, not minimize them. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

That was at least a generation ago. Now they promulgate more rules, protocols, formulae and judgmental encyclicals than the Vatican. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@islagiffidy I also "get airtime" from Joe Rogan, multiple TV programs on Fox, too many left-wing podcasts and YouTube shows to count, the Brazilian political magazine where I'm a columnist, and my own large independent platforms. The only places I can't are CNN & MSNBC, where nobody watches. — PolitiTweet.org

Cenk Uygur is on a hunt for trans people that he is fantasizing had sex with Joe Rogan, and urging these trans people to contact Cenk and tell him all about it: https://t.co/y0ODFvVwuZ — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Good job, @RandPaul. Even if you somehow favor tens and then hundreds of billions of dollars leaving the US to weapons manufacturers and CIA to prolong the war in Ukraine, the rush to do this with no debate or questioning is unseemly and cowardly: https://t.co/udnendADkb — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

As was true in the House, the only opposition to Joe Biden's reckless escalation of the US role in the war in Ukraine -- sending another $40b to Raytheon and the CIA -- is coming from Republicans. Democrats, including the Squad, are fully united in support.🤷‍♂️ — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@caitoz @leftist_news12 @crispypadthai @BenjaminNorton @Antiwarcom The huge difference to me is that, in the past, when the US picks a Main Enemy, every power center unites in support of that view. Wall Street is so in bed with and dependent upon China -- see Bloomberg's praise of Xi -- that they vehemently oppose any effort to foster conflict. https://t.co/9Dvz1h0bhs — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Grimeandreason Fine, but it's just a question of semantics then. Yes, you can define the "left" as some Platonic ideal, then say Bernie/AOC aren't that. But in the political spectrum represented and visible in the US, Bernie/AOC are the "left" because there is nothing more left than them there. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@caitoz @leftist_news12 @crispypadthai @BenjaminNorton We have proof that the years of anti-Russia hatred and antipathy led Democrats to support a war and crave the destruction of Russia: no need to speculate. We're seeing that happen right now. Those who said that were correct. Where's the equivalent GOP aggression toward China? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@caitoz @leftist_news12 @crispypadthai @BenjaminNorton We just had a test case. The GOP ran the WH and Exec Branch from 2017-2020. Trump constantly lavished praise on Xi. He speaks admiringly of Chinese culture and accomplishments. Many on the left have also talked about Chinese economic harm to US workers. That's not a Cold War. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@caitoz @leftist_news12 @crispypadthai @BenjaminNorton I think many have an ingrained refusal to believe some of their values can ever be better served on what is considered the right -- that it must only be on the left -- so there's a desire to invent reasons why it's not happening (they're not anti-war, just want war with China). — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@caitoz @leftist_news12 @crispypadthai @BenjaminNorton Again, you're pointing to people who aren't Tucker. Why aren't there quotes like these from Tucker himself? Just as I think it's unfair to attribute to guests what hosts say, I think the converse also is. I'm sure some GOP will want Cold War confrontation with China. Many won't. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Grimeandreason Right, I agree. If you believe there's any mainstream left in the US, then the only choice is Bernie/AOC/Squad, and they're 100% behind the Biden war strategy in Ukraine, as we just saw. My friends who insist they're the real leftists argue there is no mainstream left in the US. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@tlsmith1963 @Grimeandreason Who are they? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@leftist_news12 @crispypadthai @BenjaminNorton There's no question he views China as a highly repressive country. Almost by definition, anyone on the right will view an undemocratic communist government as pernicious. But he's said one lesson he learned from Iraq is that war isn't an answer to a despotic foreign regime. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@leftist_news12 @crispypadthai @BenjaminNorton That you have to rely on the statements of someone who isn't Tucker to support your claims about what Tucker thinks, rather than citing statement of Tucker himself -- who is on TV every night -- seems pretty significant about the strength of your claim. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Grimeandreason Who are the leading left-wing national political figures? Name them. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@crispypadthai @BenjaminNorton He sees it as a competitor and a repressive country, but I've never heard him hint that there should be a rejuvenation of a Cold War an let alone an actual military confrontation. It's easy to make claims about what people would do in some future war. The war now is Ukraine. — PolitiTweet.org
