    Russia can keep him, he’s one of those “Long enough to be the villain” situations

      He’s still a hero, you petulant nationalist goon. Go gargle Georgie Soros balls, you absolute footstool.

          I see a nationalist lapdog right now. Time for some nuclear testing in this removed.

          What, you think Snowden went to Russia because he wanted to? EHR!! Wrong again, genius. He went to Russia because that’s about the only place extradition treaties with the US does not extend, and Putin went for it to get brownie points with the common folk of the world - because he wants people to worship him like the new Alexander the great.

          Read up about the history of the NSA, the CIA and the FBI. Learn how the Kremlin is cute in comparison and learn how the US elite has a history of subverting and persecuting whistleblowers to solidify the protection of institutionalist powers. It’s what makes Putin so jelly, because he wishes he had that kind of power and influence across the world.

          I don’t blame Snowden for not wanting to become another statistic. I blame idiots like you though for pretending you know wtf you’re talking about, when really you’re just sniffing at the crotch of soft US imperialism, because it doesn’t occur to you that all forms of imperialism - be it US, Russian, Chinese, European, etc - whether it soft or hard are all equally narcissistic, paranoid, stupid and destructive, even if it makes your microdot hard as you wave your little flag like the good boy you are.

          So go off, serf, but you’ll get no headpats here. Suckle at the feet of your masters - you treacherous little imp. I bet you/you’d vote/voted for Trump because he’s your Alexander the great.

            I’m as progressive as it come. If you’re willing to break the law because you think it’s the right thing to do you should be willing to accept the consequences, not run off to a foreign enemy state. What he exposed would have stayed in the news far longer if he went to trial got convicted and people were rallying to have him freed. I don’t believe he did what he did for altruistic reasons. He’s no hero to me.
