@AlexShulepov7 LOL. All these Western officials who vehemently support NATO involvement in Ukraine are for some reason inventing a reason to question that policy. Makes sense. CNN in April: https://t.co/ZH6hjXp1Ai — PolitiTweet.org

@kantwistaye Since you want to shut your eyes and deny reality, you can see the polling data from the NYT yourself here. Many other journalists made similar observations if that helps you confront reality. https://t.co/Zy0VNrgeEb — PolitiTweet.org

How many rubles did Putin pay you to cite this Financial Times article on how EU law enforcement officials are deeply worried about which of their streets are the ultimate destination for these highly sophisticated weapons from Ukraine? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

The US has a population that knows the goals and objectives its government cites for why it must involve itself in a new war are never fulfilled -- are never even the real goals -- yet its media gets people to believe that, this time, things will be different. Anyway... https://t.co/8C6ePM5ijt — PolitiTweet.org

"Europol said its investigations indicated that weapons trafficking from Ukraine into the bloc to supply organised crime groups had begun and was a potential threat to EU security." Anyone who expressed concerns about things like this was deemed a traitor and a Kremlin asset. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

You know those billions of your money US is sending to Raytheon and Lockheed "for Ukraine"? The arms are being sold by Ukrainian smugglers onto the black market. Nobody knows exactly where these dangerous weapons are, but I'm sure we'll have a new war at some point to stop them. — PolitiTweet.org

@ups2death Oh, ok. Never mind that. @ups2death is working class but still voting Dem. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

But that's the point. Dems rely on "a slice of well-off socially liberal voters, thus now have "a bigger advantage among white college graduates than nonwhite voters." In other words, the exact kind of people who work in national media are Dems, hence these false narratives. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

While the corporate press pushes the self-serving narrative that the Trump-led GOP is a white supremacist party devoted to implementing a white nationalistic dictatorship, Latino voters are rushing to GOP while GOP has its most diverse class ever in 2022: https://t.co/MkO7T9qwxJ — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

AXIOS: "We're seeing a political realignment in real time." "Dems are becoming the party of upscale voters concerned more about" social issues. GOP is "quietly building a multiracial coalition of working-class voters." https://t.co/VMG4RZr8rE https://t.co/hVUPudkSq9 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Of course someone whose primary identity is as a CIA operative during the Dirty Wars first became a Bill-Kristol-sponsored online #Resistance hero and now is a DNC-supported Senate candidate: — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@muckrakerearth @democracynow That may be true, but that's not an example of it, since the Russians had not invaded Ukraine on February 23, the date of that tweet, despite the US media saying they had. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@bob_vols @democracynow Really grateful to have such erudite and creative people like you to offer such unique phrasing that I'd never be able to find on my own. https://t.co/K6vcRlpcRB — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@heyitsmeshaunna That you think I'm supporting Bolsonaro is a testament to both your stupidity and the willingness of the liberal-left to invent lies at the drop of a hat. There's a reason Bolsonaro threatened me and not you. It has a lot to do with the subject we've been discussing. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Rare @DemocracyNow segment that includes actual dissent from liberal orthodoxies. Good discussion here: — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@heyitsmeshaunna I'm not going to be interrogated on my relationship with my kids by some cowardly anonymous loser on Twitter. My offline work and accomplishments speak for themselves. If you have anyone in your life, how often do they hear: "not now, sweetie: I'm in Glenn Greenwald's replies"? — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@heyitsmeshaunna And yet I've written 6 books, am raising 3 kids, have rescued and placed for adoption dozens of dogs including the 24 at our home, founded numerous entities including several non-profits, so I must be offline quite a bit as well. As I said, I don't regard "online" as an insult. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@ZeeshanAleem @ryanlcooper I also think there are different tactics people use for causes, all of which are vital. Politicians tend to think a lot about how to draw people to them. I don't really see that as my role. We also use whatever skills and talents we have in the best way we can. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@ZeeshanAleem @ryanlcooper I think there's a balance needed. Harsh criticisms of ruling class ideologies and the dominant factions that support them are vital. That may alienate some. With few exceptions, I don't ever personalize politics to the point that I wouldn't work with someone for common goals. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@ArthurinCali Yes, and the way Wimbledon this year banned British players due to the UK Government's ongoing support for the Saudi destruction of Yemen and general support for the most despotic regimes in the region. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Every collapsed and crumbled empire likely has many lingering pathetic features, but few can surpass the British elite in this regard.🇬🇧 What they did at Wimbledon -- thinking they were hurting Putin by banning Russian players -- was an utter debacle:👇 https://t.co/RHLn72hKpJ https://t.co/2aKIZkVvTJ — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@ZeeshanAleem @ryanlcooper I don't really think I have anything to prove about my willingness and ability to work for the causes I support and achieve progress and tangible results for them. You should probably refrain from criticizing others' perceived failures in that regard until you've done something. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@ZeeshanAleem @ryanlcooper I have numerous other societal visions I've not just advocated over the years but worked and sacrificed to advance and promote. But given the constraints of Twitter, I feel that's a good start to aid in your understanding of what you asked. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@ZeeshanAleem @ryanlcooper Factory farms should be heavily regulated if not dismantled to stop mass torture of animals and harms to public health and environment. The Drug War should end with resources devoted to treatment. Big Tech monopolies should be broken up. CIA should be reined end if not abolished. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@ZeeshanAleem @ryanlcooper I think free speech should be protected to ensure ruling class orthodoxies are subject to challenge. Journalists like Assange should be able to report on power centers without fear of prosecution. Militarism, imperialism and corporatism should end as ruling class ideologies. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@dromanber Yes, he used to write things like this until realizing that you have to hew to standard liberal orthodoxy to find and keep a job in liberal corporate media: https://t.co/oL3vcZVrD3 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

As the Post suggests, there's no proof the story is false -- can't prove a negative -- but the evidence for it is woefully inadequate given how far and wide it spread, including by the WH. Possible it will be proven, true but it shows how recklessness is permitted for The Cause. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

After liberals virally spread 2 false stories -- a Florida law requiring students to register their political views and CBP agents "whipping" migrants -- WPost is now questioning the story about the 10-year-old Ohio girl forced to leave for an abortion: https://t.co/NZ3MCePFSo — PolitiTweet.org

This is the same Business Insider employee who, despite having never displayed a molecule of courage, this week insinuated Snowden, who risked everything for his cause, was a coward. Beyond that, "terminally online" insult is odd. The internet is a key way people communicate. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

This employee of Business Insider describes Edward @Swowden as being "terminally online." That Business Insider employee has tweeted 83,000 times. Snowden -- known not for his tweets but courageous *actions* -- has posted 7,000 times: 1/12 that amount. https://t.co/75tzyASQw6 — PolitiTweet.org
