    The most interesting thing to me about the whole Snowden thing, is that nobody really cares. The stuff that he leaked are things that most people thought were happening already. In general, the leaks got a kind of "meh" response from the world. What that says about the world is something to talk about, but I find it interesting that there's not really anything that interesting to the public. It's not like they found proof of alien autopsies or something. Just your normal "we're a spy agency run by the United States" type of stuff.

      nobody cares because the press is afraid to do their jobs. they are spoon fed shit from the government and other Big Things(tm) and they are not going to bite the hand. this is how things have been for over 20 years, now. our press is castrated and useless.

      people are not told what is going on. how many people have read about the widespread h1b abuse? no one. every normie I talk to and tell this about, its all new to them. they act (and its real) like they never heard anything about this.

      the news does not do their job. they are like domesticated dogs. they learned that they could be wild and fight for food, or be tame and get food for just begging and being 'good' to humans. the media is called a lapdog and its not a coincidence.

      control the media and you control the message. our government learned that well and, sadly, executed well on it.

      our people are kept ignorant by 'news' and 'entertainment' (including sports and the latest R vs D distraction).

      they have it down to a science. they really do.
