      Snowden really proved he wasn’t a Russian spy when he… check notes… immediately fled to Russia with troves of American secrets…

        Russia wasn’t his final destiny. He was en route to somewhere else when his passport was revoked.

      I don’t like this. Everything you’re saying is true, but this argument isn’t persuasive, it’s dehumanizing. Making people feel bad for disagreeing doesn’t convince them to stop disagreeing.

      A more enlightened perspective might be “this might be true or it might not be, so I’m keeping an open mind and waiting for more evidence to arrive in the future.”

        We already have all the evidence. This isn’t some developing story, the paper is reproducible. What’s dehumanizing is assuming that Asians can’t make good software.
