I'm not worried about this troll, I'm worried about people seeing their post, seeing no one slap it down and assume it's not a dangerous opinion to have.

- jessaustin 13y agoSomeone who hasn't seen any comments opposed to Snowden, hasn't been reading HN. Especially-prolific names like "rayiner" (as well as others) have been all over this one. These questions aren't "dangerous", they're braindead.
- flyinRyan 13y agoI meant that having the opinion that Snowden is the bad guy here is dangerous. We really need more light on this scandal, not less.
- hnal943 13y agoThere doesn't have to be a good guy in the story. You can think it is good the information is out without lionizing Snowden.
- flyinRyan 13y agoThe Snowden drama is all that's keeping this relevant. The public tends to be like a sleeping person. If you tell them the house is on fire, the first they will do is try to get rid of you because you are a nuance. If you persist they will give up on trying to be rid of you and try to find out why you won't stop and attack that instead, unless it appears harder to be rid of than you are.
- pekk 13y agoIt is "dangerous" to disagree with you? What are you gonna do about it, buddy?
