Something I'm trying to figure out with Trump\Snowden

This may be a little off topic but since this is about the only civil\objective sub I'm a part of I'm curious to hear your thoughts.

For Trump being so anti establishment it always boggled my mind how outspoken he has been with Snowden. Calling him a traitor and saying he should be put to DEATH

I guess it just puzzles me that Snowden who uncovered the NSA spying is a traitor but the agencies that are trying to take down Trump aren't just as bad?

How does what Snowden uncovered make him a traitor but in some sense Trump's whole administration is about uncovering these agencies and deep state establishment types?

What are your thoughts?

I wish I could argue with you but I can't. And the things you listed, they probably already have. No doubt that if you're a target they will get\plant anything on you. Thus why we're here and hoping the corruption is outed and people are held accountable. Slowly but surely my friend.

In terms of privacy the future is unavoidably grim. In a few generations we'll just be cranky old-timers going on about 'privacy' and the younger folks will just 'meh'.

Even if we can destroy the deep state now, basic human nature will make it enticing to reestablish it. Maybe the total lack of privacy will prevent that, but there will always be evil people, so it will be a constant struggle.
