You clearly have almost no clue at all about who Greenwald is, what he does and why, despite him being one of the very few journalists who has extensively explained those things in public.

Alternatively "regressive left" is some fantasy of yours that doesn't really have much to do with anything in the real world. (Such as Greenwald.)

(And how is he a leader of anything? He's a journalist who writes verbose articles on complicated topics from unpopular angles, runs a marginal newssite and occasionally appears on TV to make comments that are often really unpopular.)

Agreed.

Greenwalds article actually talks about why the facts didn't matter. You know, beyond "because Brits are dumb racists".
