2. In the even, Greenwald and I had a spirited discussion that took up the history of "America First" (from Charles Lindbergh to the Birch Society to Pat Buchanan to Trump) as well as anti-immigrant nativism (from Henry Adams to Tucker Carlson).

3. If I had to find a theme in our conversation, I'd say Greenwald really wants to bend over backwards to give Trump & Carlson every benefit of the doubt as putative advocates of anti-interventionism & pro-worker policies. I see no reason to accept their rhetoric at face value

4. In any case, I'd encourage people to listen to our conversation, it's a spirited but civil disagreement on fundamental issues. It ends with the revelation that we've kept Oliver Stone waiting.https://jeetheer.substack.com/p/podcast-greenwald-strikes-back?r=bh54&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email …

Sorry but, in my opinion, spending one second of my life listening to Glenn Greenwald is one second I will regret and never get back.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

Greenwald is long past being of any use to the left. At best he sows the seeds of confusion & at worst he enables the far right. He knows what he has been doing for years. No one should entertain illusions that direct discussion is necessary.

I disagree only insofar as there if there are any people who consider themselves even remotely "left" that hold any amount of respect for Glamn anymore, which there sadly are, but the rest of them are Third-Positionists/red-browns who are a little better at hiding antisemitism.
