What is it about Edward Snowden that elicits a negative reaction from some people?

34. Ah, well...

I'm not from the United States.



I think your position's understandable, I just don't share it. I'm from the UK and I want my country disconnected strategically from yours. I don't think you're good for us. The UK's name has gone through the mud along with America's what with the beating up weaker nations and everything. Bad for my emotional well-being, see. I used to like being British.

So, yeah, you're not really in any position but to oppose his taking your country's secrets to other countries, I entirely appreciate that... but as America has no business spying on me or any of the rest of its "allies" I don't give much of a shit when someone like Snowden rats on the States. It's me he's ratting to, you see?

And I like that.

You won't, of course. But it's okay. I know you're not a position to give up your country's right to spy on me. It makes you look unAmerican.
