Glenn Greenwald's scandal proves that tolerance is not a virtue – it is high time that conservatives are starting to act like that
The so-called “slippery slope” was not so much revealed an error that an immutable law. When a form of degeneration is authorized, the more sure it is to follow.
Do not look for further than the sexually explicit video of the journalist winner of the Pulitzer Prize, Glenn Greenwald, recently disclosed on X: images represent Greenwald, dressed in women's clothing, sitting on his knees like a Portuguese degreeds verbally. Greenwald kisses his feet. The man demands that Greenwald transferred him 10,000 Brazilian reals, the equivalent of more than $ 1,700, to which Greenwald complies. Viewers allegedly alleged that a methamphetamine pipe is visible in the images.
Greenwald complaints The videos were published without “knowledge or consent”.
“Although we do not yet know exactly who is responsible, we are about to know and the reason was maliciously political,” alleged Greenwald in a statement published at X.
“I try so much to see beyond this video, but the demonic eyes and the methamphetamine pipe really bother me more than sexual deviance”, an X user wrote. “I would love to hear recognition of your use of this dangerous drug altering the brain or why this methamphetamine pipe was present if it was not used.”
Greenwald was specifically questioned about the apparent methamphetamine pipe in the video and he did not denote it. Instead, he said he was proud of his personal life. How can we defend this?

Greenwald did not directly approach the allegation of methamphetamine pipes – at the beginning. “The point that I argued from the start is that the moral and ethical code in which I believe for my own life is the one I am satisfied wrote In response to the user. “… I do not feel any obligation to limit myself to the different moral codes that others profess to believe in terms of private behavior.” Megyn Kelly seemed to agree.

“”Love and respect [Greenwald]”Megyn Kelly wrote on X. “I can't wait to put it back soon and ignore this attempt to embarrass it like the unrelevant BS. »»
To restore what seems to be the argument of Greenwald and Kelly: “What is the total moral degeneration of society has to do with You? “”
Many, I would say. Greenwald is a public personality. Conduct as remarkable as what the sequence depicts is worthy of discussion, in particular given Greenwald, has thrown itself into the skirmishes of the cultural war as a progressive.
Greenwald is a supporter of adoption by same -sex couples. The journalist adopted three children with his spouse, David Miranda. Miranda died in 2023 following a “nine -month struggle with abdominal infection”, ” according to at the New York Times. It is not surprising that Greenwald did not adapt the criticism of the conservative commentator Matt Walsh of the same sex adoption.
“A child being with a host family, is far from being an ideal scenario, it's very, very sad,” said Walsh in an episode of The Tucker Carlson Show. “A child who goes to two gay parents, I think it's worse … It's just more messy, it's more confusing for the child.”
Greenwald replied Walsh's remarks on X: “You have to be morally disturbed – or totally ignoring the sinister reality of children who lingered without parents in orphanages, shelters and dishes with foster family, to be expelled at 18 without support – to believe that this dark hell is better for children than to be adopted by gay couples.”
Certainly, children lingering around men who seem to adopt behavior like recently disclosed images – much less during recording – is a concern. But it comes from a member of the “self-oid sexual morality”, according to Greenwald's words.
The remarkable number of lies on this video invented in the last two days and generally expressed in this thread:
I was determined not to weigh on this question after the original declaration that I published on the first day because – as I said then – I am firmly …

In another long declaration, Greenwald reprimanded those who claim “[t]Video events took place in my house where my children live and when they were present “, calling that a” set of stupid, malicious and obvious lies: this video was recorded again – at least a year ago if not more – and it was obviously taken place or near my home. “”
Not everyone is intimately familiar with the interior decoration of Greenwald. He then discussed the allegation of methamphetamine. “They also announced, for any reason, that I have consumed crack or methamphetamine and that I am now tragically overwhelmed by a crack or a dependence on a paralyzing methamphetamine which has never manifested itself to anyone during the 20 years of intensive daily work that I have done,” he wrote.
By putting his declaration aside, this whole episode should be considered a lesson for the conservatives who insist that the progressives are at the top of the management positions. An an ally occasionally useful for a curator should not be confused. Some “identities” are intrinsically incompatible with the latter.

For example, as should Be easy, transgender. BLAIRE White, a self -proclaimed conservative youtuber, has collected an audience of millions balustrade against transgender ideology. The problem is that White himself is a man who has undergone an extended “femioization” procedures. If the Conservatives must criticize the “month of pride” with any degree of authority, they cannot engage in people like white – whatever its rhetoric may seem appropriate on paper.
The tolerance of depravity is not a virtue. It is an Achilles heel.
