Sem David, nenhuma das reportagens de Snowden que fizemos sobre como a NSA e seus aliados estavam espionando o Brasil e os brasileiros teria sido possível. A parte do arquivo que ele foi buscar na Alemanha – e pela qual acabou detido no Reino Unido – foi a parte sobre o Brasil: — PolitiTweet.org

Also, isn't it notable that employees of large media corporations so often lament that people no longer trust them, that people turn to "unreliable" alternative sources that spread Fake News, etc. But they virtually *never* ask why this happened, or what role they played in it? https://t.co/CH0BkWn149 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Every day it amazes me how much more open and explicit corporate journalists are that they see their primary role as defenders of the Democratic Party. They used to be required to pretend, but the Trump era largely freed them of the fraudulent neutrality scam, which is healthier: — PolitiTweet.org

@RalphJanik @EmpireMoroccan Depends what you mean by "huge," but you can't pretend there was no context for your comment. You were demeaning and dismissing the pervasive divergence from the US/NATO consensus on Ukraine by trying to claim the disobedient countries are shit. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@RalphJanik @EmpireMoroccan The meaning of your comment could not have been clearer. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@EmpireMoroccan @RalphJanik He thinks that only the US and Western Europe and whichever countries happen to agree with them at any moment are the free and civilized countries and everyone else is an autocratic shithole: not an uncommon view. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@RalphJanik Many "oppressive, kleptocratic and corrupt" regimes exist because the US and UK support and prop them up, such as the Saudi monarchy and Egyptian military junta. Many democratic countries are included in the group that dissents from US/NATO. Your binary morality is a fairy tale. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

In the US, virtually everyone in public life with rare exceptions is fully on board with the Marco-Rubio/Nancy-Pelsoi lockstep consensus about Ukraine. So is much of Western Europe. That's created a false impression that "the world" is similarly in lockstep. The NYT: https://t.co/cpR7orHXdn — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Good to see the NYT acknowledging what has been a glaring fact since the start of the war in Ukraine: contrary to the Western media narrative, a huge part of the world does not share the US/NATO consensus about the moral or strategic dimensions: https://t.co/bAMQpOkoGp — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@kgrotke2 So now Chomsky is just a contrarian? How do you explain the very substantial dissent and divergence outside the US, where not everyone sees the war the way Marco Rubio and Nancy Pelosi do? — PolitiTweet.org

Also, having a common enemy feels good. It gives purpose. It makes us feel that no matter what bad things our leaders have done, someone - another country - is vastly worse. Our hatred for them absolves us of our sins. And key: groups need outcasts: https://t.co/G9gQXbEGOp — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

It's not a good feeling to dislike and distrust your own government and its key institutions. Wars that everyone can rally around provide a way to rejuvenate faith and trust in the US security state, the US role in the world, the morality of our political leaders and media class: https://t.co/9WeqCIwkQi — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Read Freddie deBoer on how and why the most bipartisan, trans-ideological, lockstep US consensus in decades has arisen over the war in Ukraine and the US role in it, and the reasons why there is less space for any debate or dissent since at least 2002: https://t.co/GN31jUycUy — PolitiTweet.org

@AfonsoPenteado2 Acho que não estou "ensinando" nada. Estou simplesmente participando de debates políticos e jornalísticos, como sempre faço, sobre o país onde vivo permanentemente, do qual meus filhos e marido são cidadãos, onde meu trabalho e minha vida se baseiam e vão ficar pra sempre. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@RossBarkan @ryangrim @ZaidJilani @EricLevitz @BenBurgis I'm sure the Azov and their various allies and sympathizes from around the world who went to Ukraine to fight with them will be very responsible guardians of these sophisticated weapons for years to come. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@AfonsoPenteado2 Você esqueceu de responder as duas perguntas que fiz aqui: https://t.co/xmGwiXg3AY Acrescento uma terceira: a reportagem que fiz aqui no Brasil sobre a NSA e sobre Moro/Lava Jato foi um exemplo de "imperialismo"? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@AfonsoPenteado2 Quando eu estava usando meu jornalismo para mostrar aos brasileiros como a NSA estava espionando suas instituições, e quando eu estava mostrando a corrupção de Moro e da Lava Jato, isso produziu bons resultados? Eu tenho o direito de falar sobre qualquer assunto que eu quiser. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@ViviATX Muitos brasileiros querem que bilionários americanos e monopólios de tecnologia americanos controlem e censurem os debates políticos do Brasil (como Google, FB e Twitter). Isso é o que eu não entendo, e me oponho. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Poucas coisas são piores exemplos de "imperialismo" do que dar o poder a bilionários americanos e monopólios tecnológicos americanos e controlar e censurar debates políticos no Brasil. Eu nunca vou entender como pessoas que se dizem "anti-imperialistas" podem favorecer isso.🤷‍♂️ — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

As vezes, o motivo ideológico de um regime de censura é claro e explícito. Outras vezes, é arbitrário e opaco. Quando os bilionários americanos e seus monopólios têm o poder de controlar os debates políticos de um país estrangeiro como o Brasil, espere apenas resultados ruins. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Vai ser exibido na Globo amanhã, o Tele Quente, o filme "Snowden," em que apareço como personagem -- dirigido por @TheOliverStone. É a história das revelações sobre a vigilância da NSA, e se concentra em como @Snowden, aos 29 anos, tomou uma decisão tão corajosa e impactante. https://t.co/5wGGu47mr2 — PolitiTweet.org

(Chris Coons is 58 years old. A graduate of Yale Law with $10 million net worth, he never served in the military. He has 3 children, all 18 or older, yet none serve in the military. So when he advocates that the US send troops to fight Russia in Ukraine, he means other families). https://t.co/o0txYSvBo1 — PolitiTweet.org
