He has a very funny YouTube video out there where he claims he'd rather die than delete the tweet in question.

I like how he deliberately accidentally deadnames and misgenders Elliot at the start of his video.

What a fucking drama queen.

I had no idea the WHO was so homophobic. It's like we're in the bad old days of AIDS which was totally Reagan's fault.

Please correct me if I'm off base, but is part of what melted Glenn Greenwald's brain is that he perceived in Brazil that what they did to Lula they are trying to do to Trump in the US and he just fixates on the parallels and ignores the differences? If he's right, and I don't know if he is, why should we expect US politics to be unworthy of Banana Republic level politics? Our public health authorities are sub Banana Republic par, why should we expect institutional rot to be less bad elsewhere?

The Atlantic was always garbage, but at least it was a unique brand of garbage. Kind of sad to see them reduced to generic clickbait. What happened to their tedious, pompous essays about absolutely nothing?

I love that his entire campaign for legalization of gay marriage was never really about monogamy and you were dumb to think it was. Gay marriage was about what then?

And now he's on to gay orgy culture is fine without bothering to explicitly say it.

Oh sweet peeps, how many heterosexuals do you know that are on PreP? There's a couple of reasons HIV never really became an issue in the non IV drug using heterosexual community.

i know a few bi's who are. hetero marriage is not like its about monogamy and plenty of hetero's attend orgies. the push for legalization of gay marriage has only ever been about being treated equal

agreed, you should be allowed to marry the same sex and be miserable like the rest of us.
