It’s disgusting to me how liberals will be like “whistle-blowers are heroes” then demand that Showden be brought in.
the concept of ratting on the government is admirable, but actually doing it is ratty.
Eh, the tune changed extremely quick the moment “Russiagate” hit. Just now they were making a movie about Assange and Snowden, suddenly he’s a “kremlin asset” and “useful idiot”. Liberals have never been honest about their supposed admiration for the whistleblowers.
“Liberals have never been honest” period.
Not to themselves and not to others
useful idiot
they’d know one when they see it ifykwim
@Farmer_Heck @muad_dibber you’re supposed to rat on the government but still stay somewhat adjacent to that government and just martyr yourself for it, not actually self-preserve
As soon as things may affect their hegemony, they go mask off so fast…
Seeing the president of Azerbaijan calling out the BBC on Assange and watching the “journalist” squirm was hilarious, with the BBC cutting out that part of the interview lol.
Julian Assange should have gone to Russia in the first place as well
Good point, its really unfortunate it didn’t work out like that, and the brits have been torturing him for years now.
Snowden was actually going to Ecuador but US cancelled his passport while he was flying to Russia to get a connection
Oh, I thought this happened a while ago. Apparently he was given permanent residency rights in 2020 but wasn’t considered a citizen yet
Now let’s see the libs reaction 😋
I had an interaction with a liberal who suggested he be sent to the front lines in Ukraine…yeah…
I can’t expect anything positive from libs these days
Sadly, my first thought upon hearing the news was also “Is he going to get drafted?”
The answer is no, btw. Not eligible.
