Quote:The difference is Snowden exposed actual serious stuff while this is like exposing basically nothing for the sole purpose of driving a false narrative that Trump is a Russian agent.  Quite a difference.

 

And no.  You guys have let Fox News indoctrinate you to the point of wanting to punish people who are telling you how the government is overstepping their constitutional authority.

 

If our government is engaged in illegal activity, the people need to know.

 

Nope.  Snowden did the very same thing that the rogue members of the intelligence community did.  It's all "serious stuff".  Snowden released and exposed highly classified information that caused our country and our government harm.  While this recent leak might not seem to be "that big of a deal" for some, it's actually a more serious breach of security.  Once again, I won't go into much detail, but it's pretty major.

 

There is a saying regarding a certain distribution of Linux.  "The more silent you become, the more that you hear".

 

Small seemingly "insignificant" details regarding something actually is very valuable information.
