Opinion of Bradley Manning and Edward Snowden

[Lief 🗽]

lol, neither of them have done anything heroic, you silly paranoid fanboys. Both deserve to be in jail and both give real whistle blowers who actually care about government accountability a bad name.

My old positions on this were immature and a byproduct of spending too much time on reddit. Though at least Assange has the dashing, roguish international playboy thing going for him, as opposed to these two weirdos.

You're more willing to defend the psychotic rapist than you are Manning and Snowden

WHAT

your reading comprehension is bad bro

Lief, do you want to denounce Chavez while you continue to submit to imperialism? Might as well do it now since you started getting patronage from Obama.

You're a fool if you think Manning or Snowden have accomplished anything against American imperialism. All they've done is possibly endanger innocent people and win over hordes of paranoid middle-class white guys on the internet who have read the Wikipedia plot summary of 1984.

Maybe I recognize that there's a lot of gray area between North Korean police state and lawless maximum freedom anarchy, that the government needs to constantly balance privacy and security, and finally that the government knowing you called your friend is not really a big deal and doesn't really infringe on anyone's liberty/privacy.

But no, the correct answer must be that I just love sucking Obama's cock.

The only thing that is keep the majority of Americans like myself at bay is 1) terrorist threats 2) even given several years and two administration no one has shown even one concrete example of someone being harmed by these programs.  Not a single person.  Is your local PD even that good?  Maybe they should be shut down.

This is a great point. Of course, the local PD is roughing up poor brown people, not anyone the self-righteous, paranoid white suburbanite internet freedom fighters are interested in.
