In reply to the discussion: The real reason a very loud few are posting hostility toward Glenn Greenwald at DU: [View all]gcomeau
(5,764 posts)...is one of the reasons I find it so difficult to stay engaged on this site between elections.
Yeah... anyone who doesn't agree with you on Greenwald and Snowden is some kind of government operative or something deployed here because what people on DU are saying about things is of such vital importance it's keeping the national intelligence apparatus up nights.
Couldn't possibly be that any actual posters here maybe had slight issues with the fact that among their activities was the disclosure of information directed at sabotaging actual legitimate overseas intelligence activities against actual legitimate intelligence targets... like say the Chinese... or that that had exactly squat to do with any claimed concern about citizens constitutional rights or civil liberties.
Nope... the *real* explanation is it's agents of Big Brother coming to get everyone...
