Arch traitor speaks more lies to be soaked up by the gullible again. Don’t you people get this guy is a traitor and you are just helping spread hatred of the US and love of the new Regime?

With all the information running around here about the CCP, why are you supporting a guy who’s activities was handled by the CCP? Have you forgotten he fled to Beijing from the US with a complete set of NSA methods and means of collection as well as the names of the overseas operatives who were quickly rounded up and shot?

Who filmed and produced this slick piece of garbage? The FSB, the GRU?

He is not a traitor he is a national hero.

He exposed the illegal criminal activity the govt is doing.

A series of fine platitudes, what people “ought” to do, to avoid the choices forced upon us, which in fact are no good choices at all.

Turn on, tune in, drop out. A phrase popularized back in the 1960’s, by Timothy Leary. And the message is just as muddled today as it was back then, for the same reasons.

You can’t win, you can’t break even, and you can’t even get out of the game. But you can bust some icons along the way.

Entropy is a bitch. If you don’t have enough adversity in your life, go out and create some. People cannot stand prosperity anyway.

He definitely screwed us and outed our people to the CCP. He’s hidden among the Chinese and the Russians ever since.

He definitely screwed us...

By exposing how our government is illegally spying on its citizens and destroying our Constitutional rights?

Your definition of getting screwed is interesting...

The stands people take on “Russia Russia Russia” and on the “CCP horribles” are revealing an interesting new American political landscape, where knowing how a person aligns “red-blue” or “Dems-GOP” isn’t very helpful.

It wasn't very slick at all, except for slipping in the occasional social symbol, like the fist sign.

It does seem to mesh with the Netflix 'The Social Dilemma' trend, which I also question.

It seems to be pushing for the world to rise up/resist, but what comes in that vacuum?

He has truth in there but there's certainly an agenda behind it and it's not all for our good.

Online commerce is part of what is boxing us in, we will be controlled by what we can and can't buy.

Small business and human contact are being washed away by online commerce, is convenient it has made many insanely wealthy but in the end it's evil and it is going to destroy us. IMO.

He is not a traitor he is a national hero.

He exposed the illegal criminal activity the govt is doing.

He exposed something that had been publicly known for decades and are books available in your public library - that you and others did not know, then that is on you. NSA has been collecting ALL electronic emissions, since its inception worldwide, this includes all landline phone calls.

It was only illegal to the left wing MSN whose concocted story millions swallowed whole cloth.

Ask yourself why it is that you believe the MSN when it comes to Eddy Snowjob, but not DJT. Are these examples of propaganda, selective reporting, yellow journalism, or the unvarnished truth? In which case? And how can you tell one from the other?

The self-satisfied Eddie “Baby-face” Snowjob cost this country billions in lost and irreplaceable assets, and many overseas operatives lost their lives as a direct result. This “National Hero” has a lot of blood on his hands.

Not slick? Slick enough to see that it was produced by the FSB/GRU.

Afterwards for his Guoanbu “interviews” ... debriefing and thumb drive duplication.

It sounds like you’re the one that accepted the mainstream media and government propaganda that Snowden Is a bad guy.

He should have been protected under the whistleblower act.

And your argument that “everybody should have known” the NSC was spying on all your emails and cell phone calls is ridiculous.

“...and the ‘click’ to OK glass screens.”

What does this have to do with Snowden?

The video was an interesting effort that is a bit disturbing but not very informative... Yes, people in the United States and likely in most places of the world are huge consumers of prepackaged electronic propoganda mostly intended to sell us products and lead us in a certain direction. It is a scary situation when you discover who those in the positions that determine the content actually are. I noticed one person in the entire video at 1:57 who looked like she might be in her 40s. The rest all appeared to be younger. All the actor/models look like they are portraying pseudo-intellectual leftists that I have a difficult time taking seriously. Snowden apperantly wrote this essay and read it aloud and the video content is suppose to support what he is saying, but to me it appears to be more of a distraction.

As far as Snowden goes... I think his role raising the awareness of how the population has been illegally monitored and manipulated under the Obama administration outweighs whatever potential damage was done to our security assets.

Didn’t watch the video eh?

Every ‘click to Ok’ gives away your free agency.

I think he used the younger models because they are the most likely to simply ‘click to ok’ and not read the Terms of Service.

It appears his point is the technology is allowing people to give away their freedom/free agency and they are not even realizing they are doing it. Oh...but they ‘clicked ok’ in order to access websites etc.

Ever get that little pop-up on a website about ‘cookies?’ Ever actually stop to read what you are allowing them to track? Most younger people don’t. They just click Ok.

It’s all good, right?

When small-minded people are incapable of discussing issues band opinions logically, they resort to name-calling and ad hominem attacks.
