defend the indefensible: glenn fucking greenwald

When is it time to let go of a friendship?

yeah i said "wow dude" when he started a trollthread just cuz moral objections to the manifest destiny of Israel gets his shorts in a bunch

I'm sorry you're sick dude but damn if you're not the biggest dick on ilx.

yeah it's definitely your noble political impulses & not your bitter misanthropic rage driving your personal attacks on Mordy. you have such undying compassion for the palestinian people that you can't help but sprinkle your snark with some light anti-Semitism. get the fuck outta here.

tsk tsk don't let bigots get away with that smokescreen

Rep. Louie Gohmert: "We've all got an Obama phone now"

Glenn Greenwald ‏@ggreenwald 58s
I wish English language were broader so I could express my simultaneous contempt & mockery for the investigation threats emanating from DC

ha hes still not a very good writer tho

The bird/key logo is pretty terrible too

don't really get the complaints about his writing, he's not mencken or anything but i can think of like a dozen prominent bloggers who are much worse stylists

So he lives in Brazil

he wears cargo shorts too

Maybe you should post that photo one more time

“The N.S.A. is kind of the crown jewel in government secrecy. I expect them to react even more extremely,” Mr. Greenwald said in a telephone interview. He said that he had been advised by lawyer friends that “he should be worried,” but he had decided that “what I am doing is exactly what the Constitution is about and I am not worried about it.”

Seems a little paranoid

hahahaha

he's clearly hoping the government goes after him

"oh plz not the briar patch!"

Jesus Christ Mordy

is there any doubt? i'm sure he'd love to confront the US government head on and in the public eye.

you're right mordy, what a ridiculous person

the opposite of silly i'd think. such a confrontation would be very good from his pov.

*obama drone strikes glenn greenwald's brazilian sex mansion, leaving only a charred pair of cargo shorts*

[glenn greenwald in Macklemore - thrift sthop voice] This is fucking awesome

lol

i'm sure any government response won't involve dropping a drone on glenn, and i don't think that's what he's expecting. he's probably expecting some legal action ala manning or assange.

more likely some kind of sex crimes charge

if you can't imagine why he'd want to get involved in a public legal battle w/ the united states government i think you don't really get glenn greenwald

ya if he goes to jail he'll be a national celebrity / reddit martyr etc
