get that OUT of my face posted:

it's amazing how quickly the title of "worst politics" has been passed around in the last two years. it went from the UK to the US to italy, and now to brazil

i'd ask who gisele bundchen supported but who am i kidding, there's a 100% chance she supported bolsonaro
hungary?

i know racial attitudes can be considerably different in brazil compared to north america, but have fascists historically drawn support from non-white communities as well as lots of white support?

You don't have to agree with everything the man says or did but asking someone on their opinion on Greenwald is a pretty good way to tell whether their politics is poo poo or not. It's like the question "Did you support the Iraq War?"
glenn supported the iraq war lmao

you’re a loving dumbass just a heads up

quote:

Over the past several years, illegal immigrants have poured into the United States by the millions. The wave of illegals entering the country is steadily increasing. The people living in the border states of California, Texas, Arizona and New Mexico know this flow has to be drastically slowed and then halted. The situation is so dire in that region that the Democratic Governors of Arizona and New Mexico were forced to declare States of Emergency as a result of the flow of illegals into their states and the resulting, massive problems which it brings.

The parade of evils caused by illegal immigration is widely known, and it gets worse every day. In short, illegal immigration wreaks havoc economically, socially, and culturally; makes a mockery of the rule of law; and is disgraceful just on basic fairness grounds alone. Few people dispute this, and yet nothing is done.

A substantial part of the GOP base urgently wants Republicans, who now control the entire Federal Government, to take the lead in enforcing our nation’s immigration laws. And yet the GOP, despite its unchallenged control, does virtually nothing, infuriating this sector of its party. The White House does worse than nothing; to the extent it acts on this issue at all, it is to introduce legislation designed to sanction and approve of illegal immigration through its “guest worker” program, a first cousin of all-out amnesty for illegal immigrants.

maybe this quote helps to explain his regular appearances on tucker carlson's stormfront hour? i realize he's softened on these positions, though. maybe because they're unfashionable in the offices of the intercept, where he holds a sinecure that pays him $500,000 a year. idk im not a big brained NYU JD like glenn

Reaching back to a quote from 2005 when Greenwald was still a libertarian, huh?
it's an explicitly white supremacist perspective. did you think stuff like that in 2005? did anyone who isn't a fascist deep down?

e: also, there are plenty of self-described libertarians who are pro-immigration, because driving down wages and worsening working conditions is obviously good for capital. Glenn however, even when he was a "libertarian" was squarely in the Paleocon wing of the libertarian movement. his opposition to american intervention and the american security state or deep state or whatever you want to call it, is rooted in his Paleocon worldview, much like cucker carlson

[has he] spent more than a decade espousing left-wing positions as the ultimate ruse or what
It's been incredibly lucrative for him. there are other critics of the american security state and american empire who have lost their lives or their freedom doing the same thing. a couple of his former sources come to mind lol. most journalists don't get the kind of cultural cachet he does, nevermind enjoy the kind of job security or lifestyle he does.
