Edward Snowden cannot be trusted.
He was all high and mighty with respect to leaks in the US (arguably relevant and justified), but immediately folded when things got real and decided to collaborate with the Russians (arguably one of the most brutal fucked regimes both currently and historically).
Your comments completely lack empathy, wow. If you were in Snowden!s shoes, I bet you'd have folded to Russia at their first threat. "Visa or plane to Washington" and that would've been the and of it.
But because you are the big tough guy on the internet, Snowden is weak willed. You, the Alpha Moonchild would've resisted Russia in their prison and died like Navalni, with your head held high after they tortured your girlfriend in front of you. A true martyr baths in the glory and knowledge that their cause is just and true.
Your death would've driven all Americans and Europeans onto the streets! It would've been the flint to light the fire of a generation ♨️ like a true Scotsman, a patriot, a fearless defender of truth, morals, and internet tough guys!🫡
We all respect your hypothetical sacrifice and moral superiority. Long may it live in our memories.

You know nothing about me.
But please, feel free to keep LARPing as some sort of deep and empathetic individual.
Do I need to know much about you? You're judging Snowden as if you'd had fared better in his situation. You portray the situation as if his life were not on the line and he were on vacation in Russia.

Then why all this stuff about "A true martyr baths in the glory and knowledge that their cause is just and true."?
And the random stuff about Navalniy? What do you even mean?
I don't have the right to judge Snowden for this?

This is not promoting russian propaganda? Is he not calling for millions of my fellow citizens to be subject to yoke of russian occupation?
