V. Illych L. posted:as a matter of personal principle i don't like to assert that people have done specific crimes for which they haven't been convicted, especially when they're being persecuted by the full force of anglo-american state power. 1) He could have faced his accusers in court and did not 2) You've literally asserted that Obama was going to have Assange executed.

TheScott2K posted:Free speech crusader Glenn Greenwald thinks a chud Circuit Court Judge who wants to overturn Sullivan is cool and good because she DESTROYED the mainstream media with FACTS and LOGIC in a glorified email forward she submitted as a dissent. Only a complete moron would suggest that the US media is ideologically homogenized.

Terminal autist posted:Bold assertion when every facet of news media in America is compromised by capital. You couldn't measure the degrees of seperation in ideology between the people that sign Tucker's check or Maddow's. 1) Fox News was literally given as an example as a unique entity separate from the homogenized media. 2) If your idea of "homogenized" means "exists within capitalism" then it's a useless idea and you're talking about something different than everyone else

Quotey posted:Payment processors, banks and card networks should be as neutral as possible. If it's not directly involved with a crime then let it through (I'm sure there's also things like blacklisting chargebackers and poo poo). Some guy at Paypal deciding whether your case or bail is worth funding is abhorrent. Especially Paypal! Remember SA's Katrina issue? Are you talking about GoFundMe? Why should they be forced to fund racists if they don't want to?

Wistful of Dollars posted:Glen's often a total dickhead, even when he's right. Part of it is also that he seems to pick and choose when he advocates certain things in such a way that he's almost always defending alt right fascist/racists.

Mooseontheloose posted:I have talked about this in terms of the 90s but there are some free speech/freedom of "expression" hardliners because of the whole controversy around naughty lyrics/violent video games that really warped people. I used to think Glenn was one of these, free speech means having to accept ideas we don't like but his slide into nazism and white supremacy really makes me question a lot of the things he has done in the past and that includes the Intercept. Glenn is all about the "Free speech means we have to accept ideas we don't like, unless it's journalistic interns talking about the fascist capital rioters for some reason."
