    Still it’s 100.0% USAs decisions that pushed him to Russia, it’s not like he went there immediately (2013), he was on the run and in shitty conditions for years before he finally had enough and went to Russia (2022).

    USA still wanted to disappear (torture) him, not even allowing him to stay in other NATO or non-NATO countries.

    A USA hero is safer in Russia, and Putin had nothing to do with setting that situation up (safe for not deporting him to USA ofc, which otc lol).

      And how does this justify Snowden promoting russian genocidal imperialism in Ukraine?

      He did a good thing, so now he is an untouchable saint?

        I’m guessing that was a deal Russia made with him, he gets to live as long as he’s useful to Russia.

        I don’t think anyone is calling him a saint. He’s a whistleblower whose best option was to defect to Russia, after a period of trying not to do that.
