So What the Heck Did Greenwald Say at a Memorial Lecture for a Pro-Lyncher That's So Secretive?

[geek tragedy]

95. Greenwald's larger agenda is to urge progressives to dump the Democrats

and join forces with the libertarians. He has gone explicitly on the record as stating he hopes he can persuade progressives to cost Democrats elections, knowing full well that it would hurt those who are much less privileged than he is.

he trots out the NSA stuff in his argument to say that Ron Paul would credibly be a preferable than Barack Obama.

(while lying his ass off, of course)

You would be well-advised to avoid ascribing bad faith to those of us who were liberals and progressives back when Glenn Greenwald was a loyal servant of Wall Street, as well as a Pat Buchanan-lite Paleoconservative bashing immigrants and defending white supremacists.

He only writes about the stuff that scares affluent white dudes because that's all he really cares about.

And you really ought to consider what constantly fear-mongering about how evil, out of control, despotic, and untrustworthy the federal government is--you ought to consider whether that serves the agenda of the disadvantaged in society, or the Koch Brothers.
