REASON FOR ALERT

This post is disruptive, hurtful, rude, insensitive, over-the-top, or otherwise inappropriate.

ALERTER'S COMMENTS

Meta and divisive. This serves no purpose other than to divide. This isn't discussing issues, theory, news or events. Just a call to some to rip on others. "authoritarians and the professional bed-wetters wouldn't have it any other way. "

This makes DU suck.

You served on a randomly-selected Jury of DU members which reviewed this post. The review was completed at Fri May 9, 2014, 09:51 PM, and the Jury voted 3-4 to LEAVE IT.

Juror #1 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: BS, there's nothing wrong with that post. People alerting on every post they disagree with is what makes DU suck.
Juror #2 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #3 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #4 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: "Okay" is a relative term here. The post itself is rude and judgmental, immature, lazy, and shallow.

Personally I don't think it's possible to say yet what sort of person Snowden is (I suspect many people are projecting their own fantasies on him), and I have found too much fawning on DU.

That said, I still have reasonable doubt as to whether this sinks to a violation of community standards.

Juror #5 voted to LEAVE IT ALONE
Explanation: No explanation given
Juror #6 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: I agree with the alerter. Calling duers haters if they don't love the libertarian Dreamboat Glenn Greewald. Saying they need to 'get a life'. Very insulting to those who want to debate these issues. Some people don't like G or the NSA.
Juror #7 voted to HIDE IT
Explanation: No explanation given

Thank you very much for participating in our Jury system, and we hope you will be able to participate again in the future.
