The Chelsea Manning tweet is strange and almost comes off as asking for cash. I might just be incredibly cynical though.

I understand not wanting to have a debt to someone but it wasn't even GGs money right? It was donations he collected on her behalf.

Edit* I did more digging and the 10k was a personal contribution to 100k or so he raised for her, I've never liked GG but think this random attack is pretty reckless when you have a major following. She made it seem like he's been threatening her or something.

Well he responded by immediately trotting out the fact that she tried to kill herself multiple times, and released all their private correspondence, so I think she was probably justified in being afraid of him. The guy's a psycho, and IMO he clearly did betray the trust of people who believed in him, if not for the Tucker stuff then for taking money from Peter Thiel.

I've defended Greenwald more than I probably should of over the last few years, but that correspondence he's released just proves her statements about him.

"i am uncomfortable with your behavior and don't consider you a friend anymore" is vague and deranged, apparently

also really loving how her concerns about him and his behavior were immediately justified by his textbook abusive response of "don't you remember all of these things that i did for you? don't you remember how i kept you from killing yourself?" but we still get goons going to bat for this rear end in a top hat

rs got sold to some investor a few years back. whatever you think of in your brain as 'rolling stone' is gone, there's just a click-bait/content-chum shop left monetizing boomer and genx nostalgia.

incidentally the same but worse and earlier goes for newsweek and time. anytime someone still cites one of them you can go "ok boomer" in your head and not click.
