The Snowden Movie

People are truly dense. “Why does the Snowden movie spend so much time on Snowden’s completely unremarkable life before the defection?” 

Yes, why indeed. 

Because the whole point of the movie is to convince idiots that Snowden was not meeting with Russians before the data dump. The movie is based on a book written by Snowden’s FSB handler and could only be filmed after Oliver Stone proved his worth by conducting a slavish interview with Ukraine’s former president Yanukovich.  The movie is a pathetic attempt at brainwashing the more gullible among us. But after everybody saw how aggressively Putin is meddling in the US election, only the Trump supporters and the congenitally obstinate can refuse to acknowledge that the story told by Stone in his movie stinks to the skies.

  1. Is Snowden the only one of the major recent leakers who is a foreign agent (or in direct collusion/collaboration with a foreign government), or are there others, on your view?
