@0YoungGod0 Do you have any examples of Tucker (or me) claiming we should be off-limits from criticism, or casting criticisms of how we use our journalistic platform as "harassment" or "endangering" us? Because if so, I would definitely be interested in seeing it. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

A major reason we now have a censorship regime upheld by a union of state and corporate power is "journalists" at liberal media outlets agitated for it, knowing they're losing power and believing the only way to preserve it is by silencing their critics. This deserves scorn. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Reject this framework. These are powerful actors who use major corporate platforms to ruin people's lives for fun. They roam in packs, closing ranks, trying to punish ideological dissenters. But the minute someone criticizes them, they whine and self-victimize. Ignore this. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

These liberal employees of media corporations have been trying for years to create a warped framework where they can unite to viciously attack their ideological enemies, but they're off-limits from criticism. If you critique them, it's "harassment." 😭 https://t.co/Y3xyuDbMrc — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Employees of the planet's large media corporations are 100% fair game for criticism. You have the absolute right to highlight all the damage they cause. They do immense harm. They spread lies constantly. They're bullies who try to ruin the lives of people who think differently. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

These people in media corporations think they have the right to attack, mock, criticize, dox and try to destroy the lives of anyone they want, including (especially) ordinary citizens. But if anyone criticizes how they use their massive corporate platforms, it's "harassment." — PolitiTweet.org

@spoonitoria @Paul_Bowers @oneunderscore__ @BrandyZadrozny @TaylorLorenz I know. People who come and tweet "You're a weird little dude, Glenn" to me deserve much more respect, civility and substantive responses than what I provided. Despite this gross failure of etiquette, I do think it's notable how angry many leftist get at criticisms of NBC & NYT. — PolitiTweet.org

@BrianBeckcom @mtracey You're a slip-and-fall lawyer who didn't exactly go to the most prestigious schools so I don't think it's sensible to wield snotty credentialism as the hallmark of one's worth. He has a much larger audience than you and the solution is to work harder, not spew elitist insults. — PolitiTweet.org

@sillynous You're extremely stupid. "The fact that Bolsonaro tried to put you in prison doesn't mean you don't simp for him." Go back to pontificating for your undergrad students who are barred by your grading power from telling you how dumb you are. I'm bored with you now. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@sillynous Any anonymous loser can make any claims they want. You know you have no way to reconcile your claim I "simp" for Bolsonaro with his government's attempts to imprison me for my journalism that undermined his power, so you resort to primitive appeals to your own pointless authority — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@sillynous Generally when you "simp" for someone, they don't try to imprison you. Leaders usually try to imprison those they regard as threats to them, not subservient allies. You must have learned this lesson from all the times you courageously threatened power. https://t.co/D9qi8xUoVI — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Sophia_in_NYC I'm sorry for insulting the world's largest and most powerful media corporations. I know how much this upsets modern-day American liberals and I really should be more sensitive about that. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@sillynous The reason Bolsonaro threatened to imprison me was I was too much of a simp for him. He would try to imprison you -- tonmaso - but he knows what a powerful and important warrior you are against fascism so he's too scared to try. https://t.co/eqIQA3ks5t — PolitiTweet.org

@adamtheplebeian I'm not funded in any way by Peter Thiel. This is a dumb lie spread around the internet aimed specifically at mindless people like you. But even if I were: yes, having journalism funded by wealthy private citizens (as it's always been) is better than being funded by the CIA. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@m34653 Yes, I did. I know it's hard to believe when you're surrounded by purely partisan and ideological actors, but some of us are capable of applying universal principles universally: https://t.co/EwtXHkbDuH — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@m34653 I talk about it constantly. The first reporting I ever did on Big Tech censorship was about how Facebook was censoring Palestinian journalists and activists at the behest of the Israeli Government. I've repeatedly reported on censorship of BDS activists. https://t.co/rMrv5PycgU — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@mascdemarco I used to be an ardent advocate of censorship led by the US Security State, the world's largest media corporations, and pro-establishment billionaires, but then I changed and decided that this was wrong and bad. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Every major debate in the West over the past 5 years has been severely censored by this cartel: COVID, Russiagate, the war in Ukraine, the 2020 election, January 6. If you want to know who your real enemies are, focus on those who are devoted to this censorship regime. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

That's why any attempt to create spaces on the internet where "unfettered conversations" can occur instantly become their target: Musk's purchase of Twitter, Ye's purchase of Parler, places like Rumble, Substack, Callin that refuse to silence what they deem "disinformation." — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

It makes me physically sick to see these people call themselves "journalists" when their only function is to silence ordinary citizens, narrow the scope of permitted debate, and use the largest media corporations to punish any dissent. They know their power depends on silencing. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

There is an entire industry funded by liberal billionaires (Soros and Omidyar) and Western Security State agencies whose only purpose is to censor the internet. The fraudulent "disinformation" industry is for this. These "journalists" are their soldiers. https://t.co/R0uoVReGPQ — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

These people are the literal opposite of what journalism is supposed to be. Their only purpose is to monitor the internet to find and punish ordinary people whose views they believe should be prohibited because they deviate from establishment decrees. They are censorship agents. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

These are the most dangerous people, absolute menaces, in media. They abuse the power of the world's largest corporate platforms to demand censorship of ordinary people: NBC's "disinformation" agents (@oneunderscore__ and @BrandyZadrozny), @TaylorLorenz, the NYT's tech team. https://t.co/M7moMeWX6z — PolitiTweet.org
