    I’ve been reading Greenwald and Taibbi for ~17 and ~22 years respectively, and in that time they have remained stalwart civil libertarian liberals, which is where I was 20 years ago, having since moved radically chibi-hammer-sickle Nonetheless, I still pay attention to them for their excellent, reliable journalism.

      LMAO

      There are better journalists working that don’t have the reactionary baggage those two have. They’re just broken clocks at this point.

        I think they’re decent fact digger-uppers, but yes ultimately they’re libs and therefore sometimes have reactionary takes. I know that going in and ignore their shittier takes.
