It's toxic, manipulative and abusive -- I'd even say racist -- to tell non-white kids that they're required to pledge their loyalty to a particular political party or ideology in order to be authentic. They're as entitled as anyone to free thought and intellectual autonomy. — PolitiTweet.org

@mikescottyy Seems weird that I just published my sixth book - about the reporting I did in Brazil that freed Lula and caused the government to try to imprison me - given that I spend my whole life on Twitter. Currently at a protest in Jacarezinho over a 2021 police massacre. — PolitiTweet.org

Democrats are absolute experts at this sort of performative, empty outrage. They ran in 2006 on a pledge to end the Iraq War. They won, Pelosi became House Speaker, and they knew it would help them in 2008 if the unpopular war was still raging, so they kept funding it. https://t.co/IJeZHVfHI1 — PolitiTweet.org

Dems are telling their followers that overruling Roe is one of the most cataclysmic events in decades so everyone has to give their cash and vote and vote, all while Pelosi and House Leadership campaign for a pro-life incumbent in Texas against his pro-choice Dem challenger. https://t.co/dECMDdgKZ0 — PolitiTweet.org

This is the worst part of the Assange persecution. These governments never wanted to put him on trial. You think Biden DOJ wants the spectacle of bringing him onto US soil, trying him for espionage? The goal was to neutralize and break him by keeping him locked up with no trial: — PolitiTweet.org

@binarybits I'd rather not reduce my views about Ukraine to yes/no questions on Twitter: just too reductive and easy to distort (not saying that's your motive). That NATO expansion is provocative was DC conventional wisdom for years. My views on Ukraine are here: https://t.co/s9aL338NDk — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Se você quer apoiar a polícia e o trabalho que faz, você tem que estar disposto a criticá-los quando eles abusam de seu poder e se envolvem em violência injusta. Entre outras coisas, isso coloca a população contra eles, faz com que os moradores os temam e é inerentemente errado: — PolitiTweet.org

@d1moore That was the core claim for why the US had to go to war in Vietnam: the South Vietnamese democrats had been invaded/threatened by the North Vietnamese Communists, and the US went to war there to protect South Vietnamese democracy from Communist invasion. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@binarybits Like I said, Americans -- as is almost always true -- overwhelmingly support their government's view of and role in this new war. But perhaps there are reasons for that, and reasons the rest of the world see things so differently. Seems like hubris to refuse to ask why that is. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Every US war is packaged the same: the US protecting innocents from aggression and tyranny (Vietnam, Iraq, Libya, Syria). Opponents of US war policy are accused of sympathizing with the enemy: a neocon speciality. But it's worth asking why most of the world doesn't buy this. https://t.co/8tQNcL3u7h — PolitiTweet.org

@Yourmom84153135 LOL. It's like accusing people of being jealous they didn't get a seat on the Titanic. Who wouldn't want a job where they have to speak for an hour a day while nobody listens except a small handful of elderly liberals, all while being told what to do and say by corporate bosses? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Obviously, most in the US disagree with Lula's views. There's overwhelming bipartisan lockstep consensus in the US on Ukraine. But his views are representative of mainstream thought in the Global South. It's worth asking why, as @gideonrachman does here: https://t.co/VG3JrcMhOp — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

"Lula said Biden and EU leaders failed to do enough to negotiate with Russia in the run-up to its invasion." "The United States has a lot of political clout. And Biden could have avoided war, not incited it," Lula said. "This is the kind of attitude you expect from a leader." — PolitiTweet.org

@AntifaVictim The vast majority of my income comes from my readers who subscribe to my Substack, as a quick Google search will reveal, and yes, you're right: it's much better than anything MNSBC offers. That's what happens when you have a large audience interested in and that trusts your work. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@AntifaVictim I'm devastated not to have a show on a network that absolutely nobody other than a handful of elderly liberals watches. I love to talk for an hour every day without anyone hearing what I say, all while being controlled by corporate bosses. Who doesn't crave that opportunity? — PolitiTweet.org

@ChuckRossDC @mtracey But that's the point. Many of these actions were reported as having been the by-product of scrappy and resourceful Ukrainian acts when, in fact, they were due to significantly escalated US involvement. Americans can only debate US war policies if they know the truth about them. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@ChuckRossDC @mtracey I think the issue is misleading reporting and information about the US role in the war. If the US is going to significantly escalate its involvement, the public doesn't need to know every detail but should know the broad strokes so it can debate whether it favors that policy. — PolitiTweet.org
