On a false equivalence

  Vladlen Tatarsky is nothing at all analogous to Evan Gerschkovich, the latter is a journalist; the former is a mostly-unlamented corpse who was a mouthpiece for terrorists. Glenn Greenwald has been saying that it is unfair for free-press oriented activists in the United States to complain about EG's imprisonment by Putin when they stay silent about Tatarsky's death. Actually, it is not mysterious at all. That GG doesn't see the difference is a problem, not an insight. He is just parroting Putinesque talking points. Argh.
