I used to admire GG, especially with respect to the Snowden revelations. When he started making regular appearances on Tucker Carlson's show, I recognized how they were using each other: Tucker loved the anti-Dem stuff coming from the Left (whatever that means), Glenn loving how his Twitter followers grew with each appearance (the feeder for his lucrative Substack). So interesting how Glenn (and Matt T) are careful not to speak ill of Tucker, despite many of his ludicrous positions. (If you see a child wearing a face mask, “Call the police immediately...contact child protective services.” Or his Jan 6 "documentary").

I'll be polite...

Your attitude is narrow minded and does nothing to improve discourse in your country.

Thank you for being polite. Of course I disagree and I’m pointing to the narrow mindedness I’ve observed by GG and more recently (and to a lesser extent) by MattT. But has been a successful strategy in terms of appealing to a whole new audience.

Wow, it's like wanting to expand your audience is now fascist, or something.

I have never used that f-word with respect to Glenn or Matt. It's a bit more like "follow the money," but even that's too reductionist. Let's just say I think they've lost the plot.
