This is such a ridiculous take. The fact that Snowden did not somehow martyr himself enough for you has no bearing on the important information that he leaked.

This is such a ridiculous take. The fact that Snowden did not somehow martyr himself enough for you has no bearing on the important information that he leaked. He could have easily kept his mouth shut and enjoyed his cushy job in Hawaii like so many others do. Instead he threw it all away and is now stuck in Russia. Now you’re saying that we shouldn’t look at anything he revealed because he’s not willing to speak out against Putin and get thrown in the gulag? What would be a sufficient level of martyrdom for you? Should he have set himself on fire on the steps of the Capitol?
