@Iwantbebot4ever Sigh. "Now do..." means: "apply the reasoning you just expressed to this other thing." Obama defended Roe on the ground that it's a decades-old precent. Cornyn is saying: that was also true of Plessy; thus, by Obama's reasoning, the Brown court was wrong to overturn it.😮‍💨 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Words aside, the idea that Cornyn woke up and decided to announce his support for Plessy is stupid and laughable on its face. But liberals use social media to create a dissent-free echo chamber so even their abject stupidity is cheered and ratified. That explains Russiagate. — PolitiTweet.org

@scaryycat @letsgoayo Aside from the words, the idea that Cornyn woke up and randomly decided to announce his support for Plessy v. Ferguson is stupid and laughable on its face. But they use social to create a dissent-free liberal echo chamber so even their abject stupidity is applauded and ratified. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Jesse, reputation aside, is a devoted lib Democrat. Listen to his 1-hour show in 2020 on why nothing is more urgent than voting for Biden. But he's able to point out the deliberate misreading of Cornyn's tweet because he believes in reading comprehension: https://t.co/Uum2xKa8PQ — PolitiTweet.org

@howley__ @theserfstv I don't think these people are actual "leftists." They're Bernie/AOC Democrats. And criticizing them doesn't make you a fascist, especially given how many authoritarian sentiments and beliefs they have embraced. — PolitiTweet.org

@letsgoayo Twitter has really made me see more than ever the true depths of cognitive deficiency in US political and cultural life. I'm not sure what can be done about it. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@howley__ @theserfstv It's not just Snowden. As risky as that was, the far riskier and more consequential work was the Brazil investigation that freed Lula, caused Bolsonaro to threaten me with prison, and resulted in a criminal indictment. That's why I hate leftist LARPers. https://t.co/7tEwy46oLQ — PolitiTweet.org

@Karantov It's just defending basic reading comprehension. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@jessesingal LOL, quite a difference indeed. Corrected it in the next tweet. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@letsgoayo I stated it explicitly in the paragraph at the end of the tweet. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Tens of thousands of people - including journalists - pretending Corbyn's meaning is that Brown was wrongly decided and Plessy should have remained, even though he's so obviously making the exact opposite point (decades of precedent shouldn't shield bad decisions from overrule). — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@howley__ @theserfstv Yeah, also this.👇 That's the point. Leftist LARPing losers like these Serf freaks hate me because they know they will never risk anything for a cause: the same reason vapid corporate journalists despise Assange: he's a mirror to what they are. https://t.co/EYqIe8tPpf — PolitiTweet.org

@JonathanFalcons @RickG_P2PRadio Both the majority and the dissent seemed to hold Roberts' anti-intellectual, cowardly attempt to wiggle out of this with contempt. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@RickG_P2PRadio That you don't think major newspapers should print accurate claims -- including about how the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court voted on one of the most consequential decisions in the Court's history -- is why we live in Idiocracy. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

Put another way: if 5 justices had signed onto Roberts' opinion instead of Alito's, then the Mississippi 15-week law would have been upheld, but it would have been upheld by modifying/weakening Roe, but refusing to overrule it. There were 5 votes, not 6, voting to overrule Roe. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@RicZambini There were 6 votes to uphold the Mississippi 15-week law as constitutional. But only 5 said that Roe should be overruled to do it. The 6th (Roberts) said that the law should be upheld and MS should win, but that Roe did not need to be and should not be overruled to do it. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@Buck_IV_ EXACTLY. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

I mean all you have to do is read the majority opinion (which devotes multiple paragraphs to heaping scorn onto Roberts for refusing to overrule Roe), or Roberts' own opinion, devoted to arguing why the MS law should be upheld **without overruling Roe**. Roberts:👇 https://t.co/A54EwrDHq3 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@NSOL_USA One last time: maybe this is the fault of legal experts for not explaining it: The majority/dissent grouping is only about which party won the case. Rationale becomes binding only if it has 5 votes. Roberts voted to uphold the MS law because he viewed it as compatible with Roe. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

There are 5, not 6, votes on the Court to overrule Roe. I'm unsure what the motive is for claiming otherwise, but it obscures this dark irony: The 5th vote to overrule Roe came only because RBG refused to retire under Obama, allowing Trump to replace her with ACB (the 5th vote): https://t.co/xHDsRoxrv6 — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

What's so bizarre about this amateur but common error - claiming there were 6 votes to overrule Roe when there were only 5 - is the same NYT published a long article on how Roberts is now powerless since he refused to overrule Roe, but the other 5 did:👇 https://t.co/rHXfWQP5ej — PolitiTweet.org

@mysterio1870 I've made clear, not just with words but actions, my support for extreme measures against corrupt establishment power, including the illegal acquisition and publication of all their relevant secrets. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@mysterio1870 My point is people like him -- born and raised with extreme wealth and use this kind of empty LAPRing to find purpose, hoping others take risks for his amusement -- are worse than worthless, to say nothing of the double standards of Big Tech censorship. It's just branding for him — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@___Chase É por isso que pessoas como vc não devem comentar sobre países que não entende: 1) vc não tem ideia do que eu disse: só confusão total; 2) Carlos Maza não fará nada: é um bebê que vive de sua família rica e nunca arriscará nada; 3) vv acha que ele é "aleatório" pq não sabe quem é — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@theserfstv Exactly like you, Carlos Maza is a LAPRing, cowardly loser who has never risked and never will risk anything for any cause, hoping instead that he incites someone without his wealth to go do it for him so he can feel amused. He's not "taking down" anyone - again, like you. — PolitiTweet.org

Glenn Greenwald @ggreenwald

@mysterio1870 Carlos Maza is a LARPing loser coward who will never do anything. This is all a show, like this: https://t.co/e13UFhJFLs — PolitiTweet.org
