Reasonable posts? I dont even have the power to downvote, but I would if I could, Why?
Because first its patronizing,
>I really don't get how people can be so naive on HN. Let's talk about Snowden all day and wish we were more like Russia, where it's perfectly ok to say anything you want.
No one said or implied this, simply that russian people were understanding there was something deeply wrong about the situation.
>Sorry guys, but not every one really believes the NSA should be disbanded. They have a real job to do. Certainly there needs to be limits, which we could of course discuss for years on end, but I don't see the point of doing it in a forum that really isn't suitable for the topic.
Nobody said this besides extreme and unthinking people and to suggest it is simply a strawman. Secondly, "I dont feel like talking about it", well then dont click the article and dont submit a comment.
>Ok, back to the echo chamber. 4 downvotes and this message disappears. Well, I do need to try occasionally. HN used to be a great site.
Asking for it.
I hope you can see where people would think this post adds very little to the discussion and in fact is inflammatory in some respects.
