That saying cannot be more truthful in our day.Im living in Australia and since the 911 Wtc bombings there has been an acceleration of destruction of law abiding citizens rights.Terrorists do not obey laws but the everyday citizen does.So then i have to question every terrorist attack,is my government involved?It was laid bare for me during the Sydney Lindt cafe attack in Australia.The terrorist was a government informant and was on parole/surveillance for a domestic violence attack against his spouse in which she was seriously deformed.It gets worse and worse...flinders street attack the police are clearly seen directing the attacker where to go.

You guys are all idiots. The COINTELPRO runs deep and you fools constantly fall for gaslighting Psyops such as Snowden. The disinformation runs really deep and you all bow down to their lackey. Sad. I thought people were more scrupulous than that. Food for thought. Snowden has said “chemtrails” aren’t real. Oh really Snowden?

(Over 100 patents related to weather modification methods and technologies) www.geoengineeringwatch.org/links-to-geoengineering-patents/ Or is Snowden something else? Of course you people would NEVER touch subjects like that. You haven’t even scratched the surface, so how could you conceptualize such things? Hint: he’s a gaslighting red herring Psyop plant

Most probably, if russian didn't no other country would. If so then no one would dare to whistleblow in america. They have no country to run to. Russia knows this and HAS to provide that safety. Because it sees this as an opportunity to weaken america. But in my opinion, it is a good thing for the people to know what their government is up to. Whistleblowers truly are heroes
But why Russia?? Why The US government made harder for him to leave Russian as he claimed it did ?? Because if he had left Russian to Ecuador, you know by now he would be in Guantanamo ... the Russian will never let him leave there ever , having an American talking bad about it’s own government is good for them .... feel bad for him, he will never ever be allowed to leave ...

Bernie would give him one. Snowden's response to Bernie's tweet regarding his whistleblower policy? Snowden: "Woah" It's on both their Twitter timelines, not making it up.
@@bkaley8974 Sir, the fact is that I don't actually know. However, I'm led to believe based on his intelligent discussion that the man has thought deeply and is sharing a narrative that is profound and relevant guided by what appears to be a genuine concern for humanity. This is what I get from watching his interview. Others may simply hear "Blah, blah, blah" and that's totally fine. I thought the comment section here was a place where we can share our opinion on the views presented. Others also in this section appear to like Snowden's commentary.
If only people were mature, and able to deal with the "muddied waters" of reality... the nuance of life... it can be frustrating, to always have to be deducting and thinking, but that is the only way to truly live. Being a naive sheep, seeing all in black and white, and never questioning anything, seems like a shite existence to me.
i think he meant that we're humans, not heroes. but we can act heroicly if we choose to and are brave enough to. because everyone is capable of acting heroicly, either through advocacy or other means. collectively, we became just as much of a hero as the ones we read in comic books.
There are heroes. What's with this trend of putting stupid statements in quotes and people eating ut up. THINK PEOPLE!!! There ARE HEROES. Perhaps not in Snowdens case but in life, YES!
THINK THAT'S A BIT EXTREME, U ARE LITERALLY PUTTING DOWN SO MANY PPL BY SAYING THIS. HES A MODERN DAY HERO YES BUT THINK THESE PAST 100 YRS HAVE SEEM MANY COURAGEOUS PPL MOST HAD TO DODGE BULLETS
It's one of my favorite qoutes of all time, but I don't think it's true on a macro level for society. Most people would probably feel the opposite if they were being honest. If you are someone like McKenna or Snowden than that's 100% true.

China is just becoming a developed country with a middle class that can do things, India is a developing country still.

The Laureates and the Peace Prize are somewhat separate from each other despite given by the Nobel board. They're all silly titles in the end, just as Snowden said -- they will die, their legacies will eventually die. It's a sad fact, mathematical odds would have the next Einsteins as Chinese, Indian, Pakistani -- those countries contain a majority of the global population -- but they don't have the opportunity thanks to their government.

@Manny Santiago, if that was going to happen, it would've happened a LONG time ago. His greatest shield is his notoriety. If anything happens to Snowden, it would be obvious who did it - which is not good for publicity. At the end of the day, the CIA/NSA aren't the freaking Gestapo or the KGB. When they do things, they don't want blowback. Their agendas revolve around quiet operation, not instilling fear in the population.
@@jasonablah7702, maybe I should've clarified. Blowback =/= disruption. They meddle in all kinds of things abroad, and do many disruptive things - proxy wars, regime change, political assassinations, etc. But they don't want blowback for those things. The various alphabet agencies want to maintain some level of plausible deniability and shy away from actions that implicate them directly. This is because the United States is a mostly free society with a free press. Whereas "secret police" like the KGB always wanted people to know when they did things because it would instill fear in the population and make them easier to control.
@@jasonablah7702, oh I believe it. Especially early on. Then again, that could've totally been a psy-op attempting to manipulate compliance or get him to surrender.

I learned a long time ago, there's only two points to life.... you either live to be happy and make your friends/family happy.... or you live to make humanity better. One will leave you forgotten in 2 generations, the other will let you live on in history. Think about it... how much does anyone know about their great-great-grandparents? Their names? Their personalities? Their hobbies? Their jokes? Their great moments? Unless they were a key part of history, it's likely you know nothing about them, and they are forgotten by all of humanity.

Don't go home Mr Snowden, this world needs all the heroes like you we can get, and we need them alive and free.
I agree. I don't think he should ever come home, there is no such thing as a free trial unless we destroy the entire government system and rebuild.

You guys are all idiots. The COINTELPRO runs deep and you fools constantly fall for gaslighting Psyops such as Snowden. The disinformation runs really deep and you all bow down to their lackey. Sad. I thought people were more scrupulous than that.
Food for thought. Snowden has said “chemtrails” aren’t real. Oh really Snowden? For someone who has said they gained access to “everything” surely you should’ve stumbled across these patents when trying to confirm that for yourself?

Most probably, if russian didn't no other country would. If so then no one would dare to whistleblow in america. They have no country to run to. Russia knows this and HAS to provide that safety.

'THERE ARE NO HEROES" What a bold statement, at the same time it's this reason why fictional heroes exist.

Being a naive sheep, seeing all in black and white, and never questioning anything, seems like a shite existence to me.
i think he meant that we're humans, not heroes. but we can act heroicly if we choose to and are brave enough to. because everyone is capable of acting heroicly, either through advocacy or other means.

The Laureates and the Peace Prize are somewhat separate from each other despite given by the Nobel board.

@Manny Santiago, if that was going to happen, it would've happened a LONG time ago. His greatest shield is his notoriety. If anything happens to Snowden, it would be obvious who did it - which is not good for publicity. At the end of the day, the CIA/NSA aren't the freaking Gestapo or the KGB. When they do things, they don't want blowback. Their agendas revolve around quiet operation, not instilling fear in the population.
@@jasonablah7702, maybe I should've clarified. Blowback =/= disruption. They meddle in all kinds of things abroad, and do many disruptive things - proxy wars, regime change, political assassinations, etc. But they don't want blowback for those things. The various alphabet agencies want to maintain some level of plausible deniability and shy away from actions that implicate them directly. This is because the United States is a mostly free society with a free press. Whereas "secret police" like the KGB always wanted people to know when they did things because it would instill fear in the population and make them easier to control.
@@jasonablah7702, oh I believe it. Especially early on. Then again, that could've totally been a psy-op attempting to manipulate compliance or get him to surrender.

If u are willing to give ur rights away to the government. And if ur willing to let ur government dictate what is right or wrong. U should prob go to Cuba(where I was born) and see for ur self. And if u still agree after that, u are just a braindamaged liberal femenist that wants to destroy THE UNITED STATES.
@@gustavomrosas4758 Free education and healthcare didn't hurt anybody did it now? How is your skull so thick? And hell yeah raise the taxes on the rich, why the fuck not? Because the American dream is that you'll be rich someday? Guess what, it probably ain't gonna happen. It's not about destroying the US it's acknowledging that in certain ( A LOT OF ) areas we are NOT the best country in the World. Who was braindamaged again? Must be you since you can't afford healthcare.
@Marie Little more practice on that grammar, you'll get there. Almost proper English.
"If you just.. I don't know.. beat Jamie with the microphone stand" ... what a great example
Committed a technical breach of law ,but no moral breach at all. He’s a great American
His voice and the way he talks is really soothing. Kinda like Bob Ross.
Thank you, Mr. Snowden for your pursuit of truth, acting on your personal ideals, and for sharing your wisdom with us.
Dude 100% sounds like Eric from that 70s show.
Dillon Whittington that is an excellent observation sir!
I hear it..…...Dumb ass!!!!
He even laughs like Foreman
show was f*cking hilarious
Best show ever!
One of the bravest man in the world! The world doesn't deserve people like you.
So well spoken, this man is truly a hero
Joe: “ you think people would recognize you if you were on DMT”
LMAO
Perfect
HAHA XD
Jokes aside Rogan gets the best interviews ..access like no other
@@arunsalwan8558 no, he doesn't. Some smart people have made mistakes going on this "show."
Plot twist Snowden is actually in the room next door, Rogan keeping him hid in his studio and well fed on Elk
Plot twist Joe Rogan is a Russian national and his studio is actually in Russia where he still presumably feeds Snowden hearty elk.
I KNOW ITS A JOKE BUT STILL CUD BE TRUE LOL
@@sammiches6859 LMFAO I NEEDED A LAUGH THATS BRILLIANT BUD
Listening to this man fills me simultaneously, with joyous admiration and gut wrenching despair. The tragedy of the human condition is overwhelming.
Alexia, are you better than the NSA?
Yes: I don't need a warrant to eavesdrop!
Soda King Who’s Alexia?
Umm... neither does the NSA... That was sort of the ENTIRE point of what E.S. was trying to bring to light.
The Greatest Man That Ever Lived
Oh, well from a legal stand point, yes; but from the perspective of real like, no; they don’t.
You know it’s serious when Joe says “Is it possible” instead of “It’s entirely possible”
This is Jason Bourne of real life. Let that sink in for a second.
No disrespect CK, but why not say “this is the real life Jason Bourne.” Becausehe is without a doubt...
Although I doubt he's as physically rigorous or is as capable with firearms. He was associated with intelligence collection. Not assassinating high value targets in highly populated areas and remaining invisible. Good guy though.
This dude is articulate, relatable, has kind eyes and beat the system. Take me, Edward Snowden.
He's married.
megha singh My hopes and dreams!
I learned a long time ago, there's only two points to life.... you either live to be happy and make your friends/family happy.... or you live to make humanity better. One will leave you forgotten in 2 generations, the other will let you live on in history.
Think about it... how much does anyone know about their great-great-grandparents? Their names? Their personalities? Their hobbies? Their jokes? Their great moments? Unless they were a key part of history, it's likely you know nothing about them, and they are forgotten by all of humanity.
” they're saying face the music, face the music. I'm saying great -- let's pick the song ”
creating the ability to pick your own battle is agency, doesn't mean that the battles won't have risks involved
Snowden: i dont want to get recognised at the streets
Also Snowden: has the same haircut, glasses and beard as when he run away
Probably likes it. Did you expect him to go bald?
Have you ever been to Russia?
Hahhahah
He is looking like a stereotypical russian university student. So if I would seen him on the street, I would not distinguished him from the masses.
The thing is he did change his look until he finally felt safe enough to change it back. The US could still potentially get him though. But I think the Russian intelligence will be too much for the US to get past on Russian soil especially in their capital.
I feel so sorry for this guy, he is a real hero
Stay in Russia, just look at what they are doing to Assange.
they both CIA
@@kingjohnny7215 think you missed his point my guy
gavin richter Yeah everyone kinda just forgot about Assange after he was arrested.
Russia might be the perfect place to be cause it’s the enemy of the USA and even though it’s quite corrupt it’s usually an safe country.
@Angry Ox In court in London.
@@saosaqii5807 Especially the gays they beat up and missing journalist that had a pesky opinion. Putin is too smart to kill Snowden unless some huge change happens because of him that's worth it.
