I didn't say there was anything wrong with it. I'm just expressing surprise that someone seemed to think that Greenwald wasn't always extremely political.
Why does it need to be deceit? People can be a bit short sighted when it comes to proponents of their own particular ideology.
I neither suggested that conistonwater was lying, nor that there's anything wrong with Greenwald being an activist, just that we should openly acknowledge the latter.
When my kids pretend to do things, they are under no illusions that anyone believes it to be true.
When we say that people pretend something is true, we're usually implying that they're choosing to believe in their own myth, not that they're trying to deceive others.
