> What? Greenwald was never a Democrat. Anti-Bush isn't the same thing as Democrat.

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?

Not all Democrats are liberals; not all liberals are Democrats.

Greenwald 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?

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.

We are all, in all our information streams, rolling more dice than ever more times a day than ever, and you only need one or two snake eyes to start the process of going down an unfortunate path.
