    The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

      He doesn't toe the woke leftist line on every issue, so he is right wing in the bipolarfurcated world view of American pop cultural leftism.

      Education is extremely important.

          As is usual, if he is on your "side", his thoughts on the state of world are exactly correct, regardless if he has any knowledge on the subject and his only fame is that he is an athlete.

          If he is not on your "side", he is uneducated and has no right to speak on matters that he does not know about.

            No, it’s just that antiestablishmentarianism has become his core value, and today that puts you more often in agreement with the right than the left. I’m sure he still holds many left wing opinions, e.g. socialized medicine, etc.

            Only non-witches get due process.

                  I remember antidisestablishmentarianism being the answer to a trivia question about the longest word in the english language. Though that answer can become arbitrary with certain scientific words.

                    I think there’s a big difference in the cases. Maher is accused of being on the right simply for being anti-woke. Greenwald’s case is quite a bit broader. It’s leftist in the “blame America first” tradition, but the anti-establishment fetish aligns him quite often with the populist right.
