Shorter post 9/11 civil liberties types: Torture is no big deal unless it victimizes 1 of our political heroeshttps://twitter.com/emptywheel/status/633281759195611136 …
@davidminpdx I've written ~1600 of pieces on torture. Maybe 3 have been about Manning's treatment.

@emptywheel Then why does your piece suggest the reasons Manning sent to solitary unusual/petty and therefore must be politics. Just false. -
@emptywheel Those are exactly the reasons that people sent to solitary. -
@emptywheel Also why no context? Why no mention of 80,000 others? why no effort to educate@xychelsea supporters about issue? -
@davidminpdx I'm sorry THIS ONE POST was not what you wanted written. You may now apologize for ignoring 1597 other ones.@xychelsea -
@emptywheel@xychelsea I apologize. I have yet to see a single Manning piece that provides any context -
@emptywheel@xychelsea The more post 9/11 community makes its heroes unique the more it exposes how essentially not radical it is. - End of conversation
