Chelsea Manning, the former Army intelligence analyst who leaked to WikiLeaks, is letting loose about Glenn Greenwald, calling him “greedy” and “unprincipled,” saying she was “embarrassed for ever considering you a friend.” https://t.co/jC2in7ZkU6
I see Greenwald addresses my question here, sort of, as part of a long, wordy Twitter thread:
While Julian Assange is rotting in prison, @ChelseaManning recently smeared him when he couldn't defend himself, announcing that if she had to do it over again, she would not have leaked to WikiLeaks.
Maligning someone unjustly rotting in prison is not an attribute I value.
Manning had one video file of a US chopper killing a news reporter holding a video camera, and Glenn and King Julien convinced him to send them 3/4 of a million other files for which Greenwald got awards and acclamation, and Manning got a life sentence. Who was greedy..?
I don't think Greenwald has moved to the right. He still regards himself as a radical, and radicals often bash liberals. What's strange is that he's decided that the Democrats are the most serious danger, and that the alt-right are victims.
VIDEO THREAD: Today a controversial coalition of activists included libertarians, conservatives, socialists, communists, and anarchists held a #EndTheDamnWars march in Washington DC.

He's just old school libertarian with Russian trappings.

Didn't know where to plop this; they're carrying an Assange banner, so...
