who is worse - Taibbi or Greenwald

And attracting deranged right-wingers like flies

this is why he blocked me lol

Finally, for imbeciles claiming I'm crying or angry with the result, the reason Lula went from prisoner in 2018 to valid and then winning candidate in 2022 is because our reporting - based on our brave source - is what proved his conviction corrupt and freed him to run this year. pic.twitter.com/MtJ5YXKZNy

lol

o jeez

Twitter apparently won’t let me search for Matt Taibbi tweets anymore, even when I use neutral words like “the” or “and.” pic.twitter.com/n3PmvaZvkQ

we're getting into downfall meme territory at this point

Still can't get over the fact that TWO DAYS AGO he was bootlicking away. That didn't help!

tbf its hard to respect bootlickers

this is simply the greatest thing ever I almost like elon now

"I almost don't mind that the maniac driver crashed through my neighbor's yard and fence, then into the side of my garage, collapsing the roof and totaling my car, because he ran over my neighbor's smug little garden gnome that always irritated me whenever I noticed it."

ooops!

maniac driver fully self-driving Tesla crashed through my neighbor's yard

Oh well!

I guess Elon Musk releasing his private DMs with Matt Taibbi kinda clears up once and for all that whole kerfuffle in Congress over whether Musk was Taibbi’s source. 🤷🏽‍♂️

It’s also a reminder that Musk, a la Trump, is loyal to no one. A lesson Taibbi learned the hard way.

the private messages were mundane and dumb to the point there really wasn't anything there outside of that context

yeah it was hard to tell what he was even trying to prove with them, other that hes a scumbag who will release private messages

the only fact in there was that taibbi was part of substack's recruitment program when he joined

trying real hard for "see, he admit it!" but it's something everyone already knew. guess if you can have way too much time on your hands you can quibble about what it means to be an employee

kinda sad that we seemingly know more about Taibbi than Musk does

maybe we should make some bad taibbi memes so he knows what the guy's about

we could get another round of "pedo guy" discourse

seems like one of musks core beliefs that hes such a genius he can just finger paint his way through life and everything will work out fine, and tbf it has, tho he is experiencing some trouble as of late

had a moment of cognitive dissonance where I was thinking about how SV world is a mix of people who have actual research backgrounds and deep technical knowledge and some randos who managed to stand up a company that had "blogs" in the name in the right year and they're all just mushed together

guess people are smart and motivated (or dumb and lazy) in different ways

Taibbi was interviewed on WFMU yesterday by station mgr Ken Freedman -- https://www.wfmu.org/playlists/shows/126568 if you want to listen.

if you were wondering what Matt Taibbi’s next move would be after leaving Twitter following a falling out with Elon Musk…

do i have some news for you pic.twitter.com/eSTEEmtRZO

haa its not a race to the bottom matt take a minute to savor the journey

matt's just heeding that old piece of investigative journalistic wisdom: follow the grift

'Twitter Files author Matt Taibbi' is a good byline anywhere

lol he was a random IT guy just like snowden

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/Ftn4OxcaQAAQbjw?format=jpg&name=medium

He’s pissed the guy didn’t go to him.

I dunno, when it comes to "most secrete" things, Greenwald's twitter feed is one of them.

glenn going fully with the network for people banned by youtube, they do pay him a lot tbf

👀Glenn Greenwald says he is leaving @Substack and heading to Locals, the subscription newsletter platform acquired by @rumblevideo, instead.

From the Guardian, to the Intercept, to Substack, to . . . Locals.

I hope this means non-subscribers can live our lives never hearing or reading anything he has to say.

idk, personally I can't wait to read his latest article on gender issues

I hope this means non-subscribers can live our lives never hearing or reading anything he has to say.

That has been the absolute boon of everyone paywalling the shit out of themselves. There are so many of these people — Taibbi, Greenwald, Weiss, DeBoer, Dreher, Sullivan, Yglesias — that I never see a single article by. Between that and not following anyone on Twitter who talks about them, I can go weeks without even remembering they exist.

yeah its very considerate of them

the perfect landing

Taibbi has truly lost his fucking mind in the last 3ish years

Jan Jekielek’s Thought-Leading-Jazz-Records

Why does his headshot make him look like Vince Vaughn’s thumb

Jan Jekielek’s Thought-Leading-Jazz-Records

Taibbi has truly lost his fucking mind in the last 3ish years

yeah it seems more like a tactical decision, when he was on Ben Shapiro's show claiming that the left has no sense of humor anymore and comedy is the province of the right these days - motherfucker you were making the rounds on leftist comedy podcasts two years ago!

Maybe he went to Hannah Gadsby’s art exhibit and grossly over corrected

ending up at the falun gong newspaper is really something

Falun upward

fucking Epoch Times, omfg...perhaps journalism is something you should only do for a few years, lifers seem to get warped these days

Falun Gong and Happy Science practitioners always look so morose and defeated when I see them pathetically trying to get people to notice them on the streets of Vancouver

This is just an episode of a talk show I think

Yeah, I don't think the Epoch Times would waste their money on Taibbi as a full-time employee.

but this is a paper he wouldn't have wanted mentioned in the same sentence in a decade ago.

*same sentence as him

he's in the company of other thought leaders--like a swimmer who lost to Leah Thomas
