Spying on the fact that the US spies on everybody?

Do you think people who keep their mouths shut as they and their coworkers do things like torture other human beings and build totalitarian surveillance infrastructure are good people?

Sorry to invoke Godwin, but the Nazis would have loved folks like that.

Please show me where Snowden has exposed his coworkers torturing other human beings.

Please show me where Snowden has exposed his coworkers building a totalitarian surveillance infrastructure. Justify describing it as 'totalitarian'.

And for calling me a Nazi, go fuck yourself.

If a global system to capture the digital communications of everyone on the planet does not merit the term 'totalitarian', then that term has lost all meaning.

I didn't call you a Nazi. I said the Nazis would have loved people who were ok with that kind of thing. Isn't that fairly obvious?

Do you think they would have preferred a guy like Snowden?

Snowden has not, in fact, revealed the existence of a global system to capture the digital communications of everyone on the planet. Try again.

Also, I'd still like to hear the explanation of how Snowden exposed his NSA co-workers torturing people. I had not heard that one.

Do you care to reply to the others who have replied to you regarding the Verizon calls or have you lost your voice there?
