It's always the same strawman, conflating objecting to their disingenuous bullshit (which is frequently just outright lies), with "oh you don't think you should criticize the powerful." Because being disingenuous is all they know.
Like the "mission statement" for this extremely dumb account is literally based on an extremely (willfully) disingenuous reading of a quote, which is basically just Leftist "You Didn't Build That."

After reading that awful piece on the Roth biographer, about systematically grooming & sexually assaulting his students and just being disgusted with how much of an unbelievable creep he is, I thought to myself, 'there's no way he's gonna defend this guy'. But nope...I was wrong.
You, a hypocritical lib: This dude groomed & abused his 8th grade students. He is a monster.
Me, a consistent, principled journalist: Oh yeah? Well, what about Obama?
If there is one thing you can objectively say Glenn is 'principled' in his defense of these days, its in defense of older men preying on teens & other various sex pests. And of course it's not bc he has his own self interests involved. That would be an odious smear.
Extreme "it wasn't torture, it was actually 'enhanced interrogation'" semantic hair-splitting vibes.
Also, a pathological inability to admit he's wrong. Glad to see things haven't changed.
Oh and who could forget, 'there's a special circle in hell for people like you.' But again, he did *not* use the word dementia. So it is YOU who are owned.
TFW you react to people pointing out your bullshit in a calm and normal manner.
The 'nothing will fundamentally change' was 'you didn't build that' level dishonesty from the 'left.' It was literally saying the opposite of what they claimed; Biden telling rich donors that if taxes were raised for them, their lives would not be changed at all.
But since 'the left' never met a smear or outright lie about Dems they didn't love, they made it into a central criticism of Biden. Because lying is good, as long as it furthers the cause of Socialism...or something.
Nothing quite says 'activism' like a bunch of white people performatively dumping a bunch of shit in the street, that some (likely poc) hourly, public worker will have to clean up. Way to stick it to The Man!
