again, saying US doin spying isnt saying the same as "oh my god spies everywhere I must move to a country that doesnt have them and is 100% free" it's just awareness of what your government is doing behind your backs while it criticizes other governments for it vocally, year by year
the reason he left is he dont wanna be killed or jailed forever here for exposing it, hes seen it happen to too many people
sorry but you are clearly stupidIf you are a man of principle and you are against government spying and oppression then you stand up to government spying and oppression wherever it happens
Has snowden spoken out about government spying and government oppression in china, Russia and Ecuador? If he hasn't he is not a man of principle
sorry but you are clearly stupid
you have this mantra of 'just because other countries are doing it then this means its ok'
the principle in this case is exposing OUR government. chinas and russias government are known to be oppressive and spying. thats not the point. he isnt saying they arent oppressive, hes just trying to get a place where he wont be found dead
but listen to you and he shouldve stayed here as a dead martyr
for the last time, he didnt say that US government made him not want to live here. he said he did it for public awareness of the fact that what this government says publicly and does behind closed doors is discrepant.
he isn't comparing it to china or russia or any other country. he most likely doesnt care to.
And you aren't listening, nothing he has exposed has been shown to be illegal and why is he going out of his way to exposes us government spying against china and then goes to china?
The other explanation as to why he went to china and doesn't speak out about their oppression is that he's a spy and traitor
I'm on the American side and I'm making sure you can say all those things without going to jail like you would in china or Russia
why would he talk about china's oppression, again ? so china can extradict him back to the US ?
AGAIN, you seem to think that if one speaks out against US government doing stupid shyt, they have to speak out against all goverments doing stupid shyt.
do you see how retarded that sounds ?
and shyt he exposed clearly violates 4th amendment, which the last time IVe checked was constitution AKA the law here
The NSA was listening illegally and it was exposed and the system was changed to clarify and legalize procedures with the full knowledge of the courts and congress
I think that is what you guys don't get, nothing snowden has exposed has been shown to be illegal
yeah they are spying for the us, that is their job
I'm in Canada. No one is stopping me from saying anything. You aren't doing anything to protect my rights to speak. You promote Government Surveillance. Your logic is non existent. Agreeing with your masters does not protect your rights. Go read Animal Farm. You
Actually, let's set this straight. To lead is to serve. The government serves We the People. The servant, the government, is spying on its Master, the People. If Snowden is a snitch, he snitched to We the People. And look at how our servants respond.
Who are they protecting you from? An invasion from Russia? China? A "terrorist" attack?
What you so upset about though?
By we I assume you mean North Americans and not the Chinese and Russians being oppressed, languishing in jail and work camps

Ai Weiwei says blind dissident's escape will inspire Chinese
If you motherfukers are anti American that's cool, but don't say you are fighting for freedom, if you are for freedom you fight oppression wherever it it exists
our government should answer to us.
Those other governments have no obligation to us.
for example - I don't feel that women should cheat on men... I can do what I need to do to keep my relationship happy... I have no control over other guys relationships. All I can do is say,"keep ur bytch in check" And I can't even do that much.. I can't even campaign for all these other relationships- when my lady is having interracial gangbangs every other night, secretly filming it, sending my mother the sex tapes and also spitting sperm on the pillow I sleep on at night.
That is what this nation is doing to it's people.
