Jeet Heer Retweeted Glenn Greenwald

Jeet Heer added,
2. A few useful distinctions are worth making. There's nothing wrong with going on Fox to reach their audience, as Bernie Sanders & Obama have done. But neither Sanders nor Obama praise Carlson as socialist & give credence to Carlson's claims of supporting racial equality.
3. Nor is there anything wrong with ignoring Fox because there are bigger fish to fry as Noam Chomsky does. But again, that's different from making common cause with Carlson or praising hi.
4. There's a difference between debating a racist (an unpleasant but necessary duty) and saying, "hey, this guy isn't really a racist." More here:https://jeetheer.substack.com/p/glenn-greenwald-is-tucker-carlsons?r=bh54&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&utm_source=twitter …
Glenn Greenwald has a stable alignment: he's chaotic anti-blob. He thinks anything said or done chaotically, against those perceived to be supportive of US foreign policy, is good. This produces some strange results.
By that logic Greenwald should have been more critical of Trump when Trump was president since he upheld almost all of normal US policy (except at the margin with unfulfilled gestures of removing troops from Syria).
