@Beb_Bannon @CancelRide I agree with you. There's nothing bad about it. But in the scheme of what the USG and the Dem Party are doing, these are sideshows, election ploys, symbolic gestures. That's all this party has to offer, and I think people should demand a lot more and not fall for this. — PolitiTweet.org

@tkelce4prez @jarsilver There are not 5 votes. There were 5 votes to overrule Roe, which for many reasons had its own problems from the start, as even liberal scholars admitted. Alito emphasized that Dobbs doesn't affect those, and Kavanaugh wrote with the clear intention to reject Thomas' broader plan. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Beb_Bannon @CancelRide I'm not saying it's bad. I fully understand the need to protect things like same-sex and inter-racial marriages, given that I've been in both for the last 17 years and is the anchor of my family and life. If I thought them genuinely imperiled, I'd be more impressed. I don't. — PolitiTweet.org

@Beb_Bannon @CancelRide Yes, because they know how cheap it is to keep pseudo-leftists in complete captivity to the Democratic Party: a few symbolic, empty votes on culture war issues that cost nothing and change nothing, and your tongue is wagging, asking Nancy Pelosi where you go vote for her. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@CancelRide Democrats know that the defiant American "left" is completely aligned with them on culture war issues. Dems are very adept at keeping the left in line before elections: as they did 2016/18/20. These symbolic votes are to get the left cheering Dems and keep your votes locked up. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Inc02 @JeremyCalling If that happens, then votes like these won't be empty, manipulative, symbolic attempts to keep people captive to the Dem Party right before an election. — PolitiTweet.org

@JeremyCalling Gay marriage is legal in all 50 US states. DOMA has been declared unconstitutional since 2013. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@jarsilver Yes: that is what conservatives hoped. As it turned out, they were wrong. Kavanaugh wasn't the 5th vote to overturn Roe; that happened when RBG refused to retire under Obama and Trump replaced her with ACB. And Kavanaugh wrote separately in Dobbs to distance himself from Thomas. — PolitiTweet.org

In case you're wondering what all these abstract Congressional votes this week are about on already settled social issues, and why they still cling to the hope that Liz Cheney and her Committee will save them: — PolitiTweet.org

Each banal column in the series has animated art like this accompanying it, and some are really beautiful. https://t.co/uOicXCofZX — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

This is exactly right, and it's what makes the NYT's "What I Got Wrong" series so funny: it's them recanting one thing they said that no longer comports with liberal orthodoxy. That said, the animated art on this series by Sean Dong is spectacular: worth seeing just for that. — PolitiTweet.org

@GeneSohoForum @nickgillespie @reason @TuckerCarlson I don't actually know the answer to that question with any certitude, so what I was saying was that the current regime of crony capitalism has the capacity to unite key sectors of both left and right in opposition, which is more valuable to me than the abstract question. — PolitiTweet.org

@Ed_Boulder @tvglobo @gugachacra That Bolsonaro and Lula have the same view on the war in Ukraine and Brazil's posture toward it is a fact. Do you think I should lie about it? You do, right? And do you think I need lectures from you about confronting Bolsonaro? https://t.co/eqIQA3ks5t — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Ed_Boulder @tvglobo @gugachacra What are the differences between Lula and Bolsonaro when it comes to the war in Ukraine and Brazil's posture toward it? This is what Guga's article and my tweets were about. As an expert in Brazilian foreign policy and politics, can you enlighten me on this question? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Ed_Boulder @tvglobo @gugachacra The article about the similarity of their views on the war in Ukraine was not written by me but by @gugachacra, one of Brazil's best foreign policy reporters. But since you disagree, what, specifically, are the major differences between Lula and Bolsonaro on the war in Ukraine? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@VuikoBerkut The current president of Brazil is Jair Bolsonaro, not Lula, and the article from Globo I cited points out that they share the same view on Ukraine and Russia. Zelensky this week attacked Bolsonaro, not Lula, for Brazil's neutrality in the war. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@VuikoBerkut He's not a convicted felon. His conviction was ruled invalid by Brazil's Supreme Court and was fully nullified. He was the President of one of the world's largest and most important countries for 8 years, so he presumably knows a fair amount about foreign policy. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Ed_Boulder @tvglobo @gugachacra I'm sorry if criticisms of NATO offend you, or that you get upset by reporting about the views of various world leaders that differ from the position of the US State Department. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Brazil built a reputation has having the world's greatest diplomatic corps through neutrality. It also has strong ties to Russia through BRICS. From the start, Lula, like Bolsonaro, has refused to echo the NATO consensus on Ukraine. He's rejected it: https://t.co/ZlXvKc2Qsr — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Ukrainian President Zelensky, in an interview with Brazil's @tvglobo, harshly criticized President Bolsonaro for his neutrality on Russia/Ukarine. As Globo's @gugachacra notes, Lula -- Bolsonaro's opponent -- shares that neutrality and has similar views: https://t.co/5I2gUesbI1 — PolitiTweet.org

@lifeofmamafitz I'm not victimized by anything. I'm doing very well and love the work I do, and understand that the anger is part of the job. I feed on it. — PolitiTweet.org

Here was my full response to the reporter who asked me for comment about that reaction. It has everything to do with the political strategy of Democrats and how they demand all journalists serve the political agenda of the DNC: https://t.co/JonWZQsC8G — PolitiTweet.org

@cliftonaduncan Yes, not exclusively white activists, but particularly in places like Minneapolis, that's who drives these kinds of protests. — PolitiTweet.org
