Thread by @ggreenwald

Two weeks ago, I invited any critics to have a substantive off-Twitter discussion to explore the validity of their critiques.👇

My motive was the widespread use of coward-tactics: posting out-of-context video snippets or attacking people on their YouTube shows in their absence:

Several critics volunteered. The first is now on Rumble. Steven Fritts voiced the standard left-liberal grievances: I go on Fox/Tucker, pander to the right on the "culture war," I changed my views, etc. Good discussion: judge yourself if those are valid:

There are 2 ironies to this. Before I could even post this new discussion, dreary Democrats -- led by one notorious for distorting videos -- spent today spreading out-of-context snippets of what I said: the exact coward-tactic this invitation to dialogue was designed to combat.

The other irony: my article this week documented how Dems trivialize the term "white supremacist" into a fun insult toy. @Markos - who I honestly forgot existed since he delivered 25,000 flowers to Nancy Pelosi - used this chopped clip to label me an "all-out white supremacist."

As I wrote on Friday, there is no evidentiary requirement in liberal discourse to brand someone a "white supremacist." They exploit that slogan against their enemies for fun, self-esteem or gain -- to the point nobody cares anymore, which is dangerous.

Because so many know Dems run around screeching "white supremacist" and "white nationalist" at their enemies, it's become laughable, a caricature. It's so often done with these coward-tactics: video snippets or YouTube segments where they're too afraid to invite the accused.

Also: there's an entire industry of billionaire-funded groups which monitor every word you utter, then spread distorted clips to disparage you. Fritts has emphatic views of Carlson's opinions, yet admitted he *never once* watched his show: just saw clips from Media Matters & Vox.

Hence: a standing invitation to anyone expressing these insults to come discuss them substantively, as this critic to whom I spoke on Rumble had the integrity to do. I hope you'll watch it. And: I'll be on @getcallin tonight, 8 pm ET, discussing all this.

By the way: @getcallin is now moving beyond the iPhone-only app it was when it launched and now making its shows available on the web. Here, for instance, is the podcast episode with Q&A I did a few days ago on the Rittenhouse verdict:
