jimmy dore lmao. imagine getting your politics from a shitty youtube "comedian".

It's nothing personal against you, I just feel the need to comment whenever I hear his name because I feel played, because I used to follow his writing. I think he is a genuinely nasty piece of work and a henchman for oligarchs. Peace.

Snowden exposed Palantir?

You Americans really need some heroes. Snowden might have done some good, but as soon as things got hot he folded like a cheap lawn chair and openly supported russian genocidal imperialism.

I hope Snowden and his family (his wife and kid) meet the same fate as they wish for Ukrainians in internment camps in the occupied territories.

How did Snowden openly supported Russian genocidal imperialism?

Snowden is often criticizing Russian government and has shown no signs of working for them. Him being in Russia is because he is hunted by USA. If anything russia is supporting snowden

Snowden messaging is directly aligned with russian security services and their key propaganda narratives.

Look at his messaging before the full scale invasion; until the invasion he was distributing russian propaganda about how "the invasion is not happening" and some world salad about NATO and BATO.

He routinely promotes messaging supportive of russian imprialism and spreads known falsehoods.

Snowden does not critize the russian government. Don't lie.

What messaging, what are you talking about? He has been laying low for years. His latest interview was Jan31 and the only relevant thing is him denying working for Russia

Do you have any articles to back up "folding like an lawn chair","routinely promoting messaging supportive of Russian imperialism","spreading falsehoods"

Here is how you do it: Here is an article about Snowden criticizing Russian government. https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/sheerafrenkel/is-edward-snowden-trying-to-get-vladimir-putins-attention

So show us his "messaging" that is" directly aligned with russian security services and their key propaganda narratives". If he is promoting Russian propaganda you can find at least tweet that applies, right?

I gave you a specific example. Do a search for his tweets before Feb 24 2022 regarding Ukraine. Note how he was parroting russian official channel claims that the full scale invasion is not happening and ridiculing US security services (that correctly predicted that it is happening). Now do a search for official russian statements on this issue for this period.

You can do the searching yourself or feel free to assume that I am lying in order to discredit your little angel.

Secondly do lookup on who he promotes and what kind of things they say about Ukraine. This includes individuals claiming that everyone in Ukraine are Nazis and that Russia invasion was justified by security concerns. Both messages are openly promoted but the russians.

I stand corrected, there is an example of him criticizing the russian government. Then again, this almost from 10 years ago.

I gave you examples from the last few years.

You didn't give me a specific example, you made me look it up. And when I looked it up I found a tweet with a wrong prediction that he said was wrong 10 days later.

Insulting me is not gonna change my opinion or anyone who reads this. Backing up your claims with something more than "look it up" maybe will.

Never thought I’d see conservative pundit videos posted on Lemmy with 60 upvotes but here we are.

I understand why the highly emotional response; we all have our subject that is dear to us. Mine is the Palestine genocide that is funded and fully supported by my country, the United States.

Fuck Glenn Greenwald. He is a russian shill and supports russian genocidal

I would implore you to stop only consuming Western pro-war propaganda and check out people like Professor Jeffrey Sachs.

He outlines, in simple terms, the events that led to the war between Ukraine and Russia, as well as the Western push to also antagonize Iran and China.

Self-built echo chambers and self-censorship are not healthy, nor do they help our society; we must always be critical of our governments and the politicians (paid-off lackeys of the owner class, oligarchs).

Fuck Russia and fuck you, you piece of shit
