Greenwald is a liberal, he was kicked out of liberal circles after the Hunter Biden's laptop story, the liberal elite wanted to suppress during the elections.
Bary Weiss is also a liberal, now hated by the liberal press for blasphemy on a certain subject.
Same with Matt Taibbi, he showed up on MSNBC regularly even on Maddow, now the left calls him a right winger...
See the pattern?
- rsingel 2y agoGreenwald was libertarian/right leaning. Went from supporting the Iraq War to being a Ron Paul fanboy to a useful Tankie idiot for the Silicon Valley right. Now a grievance grifter and an apologist for Putin and Assad. Bari Weiss is not a liberal. She's a culture war grievance grifter. Matt Taibbi got mad he got called out for his shitty sexist behavior in Russia in the 90s when MeToo happened and made a hard right turn. Now a grievance grifter. See the pattern?

- jordanb 2y ago> Greenwald is a liberal Greenwald was never a liberal and never would have described himself as such. Anyhow you haven't really even scratched the surface of all the lefty people who went right. And it's not even a new phenomenon. Heck even woodie guthrie swerved right during the red scare. One could say that the pastures are greener on the right side of the commentariat.
