(Nothing personal, Marc)
This is comical. Marc Andreesen is the least OpenGov-style person I can possibly think of. He is literally the definition of the American Oligarchy. When confronted with the Snowden revelations he said both that:
1. Everyone knew that the government was doing this.
2. That Snowden was a traitor.
Snowden's treason was only possible if the public didn't know what has been going on, so really this is code for "us guys with investments into company's that the INT organizations have contacted know what is really going on; we don't need a pesky whistle blower leaking it to the public".
OpenGov my ass.
"If you look up in the encyclopedia 'traitor' there's a picture of Ed Snowden."
That is fucking Andreesen. He's not on our side. He's the enemy, in the same group as the banks that are corrupting our governments.
I get political realism / anarchy in international relations. I really do. I get how every telegraph ever sent is recorded in some American or British INT station.
But publicly shaming someone that validated that we essentially live in 1984 as a fucking traitor / criminal is despicable.
Some of us can't be bought. Some people don't care about money so much that they'll keep silent about assholes ruining our democracies.
Andreesen is just the one we have on record. Half of fucking wall street and Washington think like him.
And if you find this comment downvoted just remember that our intelligence agencies have tools to manipulate internet discussions:
