  • He isn’t being pursued for sharing the info but rather in directly committing crimes to get the info.

    Debatable. But even if he did, that means he helped uncover the human rights abuses of the US and it’s allies and their unbelievable collateral damage(~60% of deaths in Irak where civilians). Again maybe legally wrong, but ethically it was the right thing to do.

    He’s also now a Russian stooge so probably

    I don’t know where you get that info from, but if I had messed with the largest military industrial complex on the planet, I’d be looking for friends in other contries aswell. Snowden understadably did the same.

    probably deserves nothing other than what the US prison system will give him.

    I wouldn’t even want my worst enemy to experience US prisons. They are inhumane and they torture prisoners (extended solitary confinement) on a daily basis as a form of coercion. How could you wish this on anyone?

    Only if they think they aren’t stupid themselves. I think everybody, including me, in past and present (and most likely in the future) is stupid.

    I mean we’ve got more or less the same brain people in the stone ages had and are trying to solve problems in the microcomputing age. Of course we’re going to make mistakes and most ideas we have about the universe or society are probably wrong. And of course we’ll repeat the mistakes of our ancestors.

    So I don’t think thinking of someone as stupid is bad, just assuming you’re less stupid is.

    Sorry I get equally worked up over the assumption that people aren’t stupid.
