    This happens a lot of the time when you’re exposing Zionism or Carnism.

            That’s a strawman. You’re not a lion, you wear shoes for crying out loud maybe should we all go barefoot according to your logic or eat our young because that’s what the animal kingdom does.

            I think it’s more “people are more likely to be punished for trespassing when exposing farming conditions, than the farmer are likely to be charged with some form of abuse or cruelty”

            Even though I know that eating meat is immoral, it is not on the same level as genocide; no one should even pretend that it is.

                Meat is immoral as it is enslaving and murdering other animals. You wouldn’t say that if we were eating your flesh or your dog’s.

                  Shows how little you actually think about these things. There are situations where that would actually be something I would be okay with.

                  Taking a position like yours is actually detrimental due to the fact you refuse to see other possibilities

      In a place the people he exposed have a hard time silencing him. Whether it’s a good place is not the question, he did a thing and now has to hide from people who want to see him thrown in a hole.

          Why? Do you think his criticism would be any less valid if spoken from a country that has explicit censorship laws?

          Kinda weird that you are trying to discredit someone with more knowledge on the topic than you… I would say his choice of countries was rather limited, and would actually lend more credence to the words as he has more data to base it off of.

          So go piss up a rope.

              Because the answer has no bearing on the point being made.

              Life is not a movie and 99.9% of the population would have made the same choice as Snowden.

              Either rot for life in a lightless cell or go to whatever country accepts you and doesn’t extradite you.

              Turns out that this country was Russia. The choice was simple.
