(12,482 posts)it actually makes sense now. it was ironic when he went around complaining about the loss of privacy in america while hunkering down in a totalitarian country. now it is just logical.
Fantastic Anarchist
(7,309 posts)Is the color of both the US and China in terms of NSA surveillance.
China is a totalitarian state; on this we agree.

The American public (including you) do not know what's going on with the NSA. Some want to know but apparently others dont, preferring to live in a comfortable denial bubble.

But of course you won't know this as I am sure I am on ignore by you for discussing ideas you don't like.

(12,482 posts)and when Americans reveal the details of it to those countries it is a very very serious crime. as it should be.

(50,414 posts)And, then have the gall to tell us they're doing it to "protect" us from the likes of the Chinese because they would spy on us.
okaawhatever
(9,478 posts)called John McCain to express "concern" over a letter he sent to the new President of Taiwan. Problem was, the letter was never mailed. It was only a draft copy still on McCain's campaign computer. the Chinese hacked into both McCain and Obama's campaign computers. Have you looked at some of the new military hardware China has "invented"? It looks remarkably similar to the United States'. So similar, it's as if they took the plans right off of our computers. Apple has revealed to have found worms/spyware in 20% of their computers made in China. When Israel had those F-16 engines "stolen" from their bases where do you think they went? Good money is on China. (Most thing Israel sold them). Like the kids say, "Don't hate the player, hate the game."

(20,277 posts)The fact that he's a traitor removes any hair's breadth of belief I had in him.
The damn documents here could all be bullshit, for all we know. The hero just sold us all up the damn river.

Anyway, by talking about him at all, I think you're just playing into his colossal NARCISSISM, which must always be written in capital letters to indicate the enormous signifance of this personality flaw.
What do WE deserve?

(1,096 posts)I agreed until today that Snowden had done something good, however upon finding out he has given information to China regarding our surviellance there, I no longer agree that he is a whistleblower. He is now a traitor!
