Okay, I get that Mark Ames has a hard-on for anything that makes Glenn Greenwald look bad. And I get that NSFWCorp is all about "disrupting." And I've given them more money than anybody here, I think - I'm 6th from the top. But let me see if I can follow along:

Pierre Omidyar is evil because:

- he gave to/invested in companies that fund micro loans back when everyone was funding micro loans, and suspiciously stopped publicizing his participations in micro loans about the same time the AP accused them of genocide

- He gave money to DonorsChoose.org, which is evil because they partnered with "Waiting for Superman", which suggests that charter schools are a viable loophole around No Child Left Behind

- He gave money to Hernando de Soto Polar, which is evil because Polar worked for Fujimori, who was NOT A NICE MAN.

I dunno. NSFWCorp is totally willing to grade on a curve when they're talking about Assad. Give money to Glenn Greenwald, though, and suddenly you're the Koch brothers.

Full disclosure: I worked on "Waiting for Superman." My parents spent six years in Peru. I think Jeremy Scahill is a hell of a journalist. And I remember that Pierre created eBay so he could more efficiently sell his Beanie Baby collection. This all seems a little alarmist.
