I use Snowden to test people.
What they think of him reveals their choice: do they like state power more, or individual freedom more?
It is something outside the usual left/right issues.

I think to actually deliberately off a us citizen you have to go way up high--hopefully to the President. Unless it is loose cannons like DEA guys trafficking drugs; who just do shit on their own hoping they won't get caught.
Unless the President specifically says someone is a problem and they don't want to know.
Generally political thugs don't just off famous dissidents, because that martyrs them and casts suspicion on the legitimacy of the authority of those political thugs. They always need a show trial first. This is why Snowden ran to a rival state. One president can't kidnap someone from another president's state. If he can't kidnap him he can't be put to a show trial.

This trailer looks horrible and so is Joseph Gordon-Levitt's accent not to mention he's a Bernie Bro Fem putz.

Joseph Gordon-Levitt must have allowed the entire Hollywood to fuck him in the ass, judging from all the big roles he's getting in spite of his awful acting performance.

Like the Julian Assange movie?....

Regardless of how you feel about Edward Snowden and what he did, I highly recommend "CitizenFour"

I think he was just politely notified by his hosts that he should refrain from stinking it up with his obnoxious leftist tweets around the summit.

When you are directly reliant on others. Than you're reliant on others.
Just like Assange was reliant on Ecuador, Snowden is reliant on Russia to play nice.
Yet I did recently read an article detailing how the Russian's may well have tired of their play thing & have little further need for him.
