You are one of our more level-headed posters here. I have made the mistake of getting bogged down in this kind of garbage. Don't make the same mistake.

You are correct...nobody on DU has said blanket NSA surveillance doesn't suck. It's like when people say Snowden was attacked for having boxes in his garage. What happened is that a reporter asked Snowden's neighbors everything they know about him. There was one sentence in the report in which a neighbor mentioned him having boxes floor-to ceiling in the garage. When the article was posted, somehow it turned into the notion that hoards of DUers attacked Snowden for having boxes in his garage.

Also, there are people who still think Evo Morales' plane was purposely grounded by Austrian authorities even though we have the cockpit voice recording where the pilot says he has to land because of fuel gauge issues. We also have pictures of Morales smiling with the Austrian president after they landed. Yet so many DUers still falsely believe the bullshit that we was grounded so they can look for Snowden.

It's hopeless. There are a number of DUers who will believe what they want to believe.
