(13,409 posts)What they're saying is that the ones who want to distract from the real issues are constantly bringing up Snowden, acting as if he's a hero to those of us who don't want the Government to have nearly unlimited ability to spy on us, are continuously attacking the messenger rather than focusing on anything of import. There are extremely few here who praise Snowden for anything else than bringing this information to light, yet all the distractors can do is talk about how awful a man he is and how we've all been hitching our posts to this evil man who isn't deserving of the word 'hero' (as if people have really been calling him a hero to any extent here). It's utter idiocy and the surveillance state apologists have been all over it. Either they're all extremely daft or they're extremely dishonest. Take your pick.
