      Glenn Greenwald Retweeted Jesse Singal

      Very disappointed to see @cliomiso is angered by LGBT journalists having a platform on which to be heard and write independently. Homophobia still strong. It was only a matter of time before people started demanding Substack be censored: hate nothing more than free expression.https://twitter.com/jessesingal/status/1328356736793800707 …

      Glenn Greenwald added,

      Jesse SingalVerified account @jessesingal
      It's now the default position among most progressive journalists that companies like Substack need to do a better job protecting readers from themselves, and have a duty to censor writers they (the journalists) find too offensive to publish. pic.twitter.com/Yow1j15JFy

      That @Yascha_Mounk -- who supported the coup in Bolivia -- and I are "like minded" is one of the funniest fucking things I've ever read. But that's what happens to your brain when you try to flatten everyone into stunted groups, ignoring their diversity and differences.

      I have to say it's so infuriating when you go through life confronting prejudices, legal barriers barring you from living with your husband in your own country, various traumas and other forms of prejudice to be flattened into "another white guy" but cheap identitarians.

      People who judge and understand the worth and lives of others human beings based overwhelmingly on a tiny handful of simplistic demographic categories -- emphasizing some, erasing others, all based on the convenience of the moment -- occupy the lowest anti-intellectual sewers.

      The key point about journalism is this: Journalists on the payroll of mainstream media corporations hate most that which enables people to be heard independently & without needing to depend upon the structure & constraints of NBC, CNN, NYT, etc. That's why they want it censored.

      Support independent journalism. Don't let them convince you that things that aren't sanctioned by NBC or WPost are are unreliable: those are often the outlets that lie to you most (and then lavish themselves with awards). They're threatened by independent journalism for a reason.

      CNN and NBC and others now employ little hall monitor dweebs whose only purpose is to pressure other platforms to censor or block the voices that are most threatening to them. It's not journalism: it's quashing of dissent. That's their function: it's vital to see that clearly.pic.twitter.com/vOMhohPUpi

      At the risk of being a little hall monitor dweeb, misinformation is a huge problem and those reporters do great work covering Qanon, a growing cult that thrives on misinformation. Also this tweet was retweeted by professional misinformation purveyor Jack Posobiec.

      Glad you're such a fan of the work of NBC & CNN. I don't think QAnon is a huge threat: in fact, I think the those networks disseminate far more disinformation and propaganda (that does far more damage). Make sure not to criticize Trump because Bill Kristol might RT you!

      "Glad you're such a fan of NBC and CNN" is totally not a response to what I said. I do think it is worth noting that somebody who regularly peddles in misinformation is supportive of the idea that combating misinformation is bad. Qanon folks are in Congress now. It's not good.

      LOL: "those reporters do great work covering Qanon." "Those reporters" on whom you're heaping praise there are ones employed at CNN & NBC, which is fine, but why deny you said that? I think QAnon disseminates conspiracies. So do CNN & NBC. The latter have way more impact.

          Because saying two people do good work about something doesn't mean I'm "a big fan of CNN", Glenn. Come on. Are you serious?

          Glenn, if you care so much about disseminating conspiracies — how come you couldn't even get anyone at Fox to give your grand exposé some airtime. You go on Tucker Carlson whenever you need attention - never heard you address his conspiracy and hoax peddling. Selective, much?

          Right, Cody said “these reporters” as in the specific reporters you mentioned. He didn’t say anything about the networks they’re employed by. Your ability to make huge leaps in logic to support your bad-faith arguments is exactly why I’ve never taken you seriously.
