When your political heroes take a crazy turn...

Glenn Greenwals has done so much excellent journalism and is an icon for the left but he's morphed into a Trump apologist.

I've just seen a liong debate he had with Destiny on the January the 6th and Greenwald was adamantly defending the idea that it wasn't an insurrection. Why? And also, it's bollocks. Also, giving it back to the libs doesn't count as speaking the truth to power when you are being an apologist for the far right.

It's like your favourite indie band produces a synth pop album with shit lyrics and tells the world that they don't get how cool and edgy they are.

Pfffff.

I'm not sure if journalism was really ever his lane. But there's no doubt, in my mind at least, that he's acting on behalf of others. A certain country that begins with "R" comes to mind.

@Burnley123 Glenn Greenwald is a con artist.

@Ynotisay I actually don't think he is I've followed his work for a long time. It's the case of contrarianism leading him to the wrong conclusions
