Care to provide some context? I clicked on the above link and I didn't see anything there that seems very interesting or controversial. Is he from the Anti Defamation League or some similar organization? ------------------------snip Tim Wise @timjacobwise 13h all I was saying - please make note of it -- is that people who r amazed by Snowden/Greenwald revelations are people of relative privilege Expand Tim Wise @timjacobwise 13h …and no, it is not enough to say u r shocked by the scope of the NSA operation…that is not a response to my point... Expand Tim Wise @timjacobwise 13h …but that's not a rebuttal. I agree it's a huge issue. Never denied that. But r POC actually stunned that the US govt spies on people?... Expand Tim Wise @timjacobwise 13h …even the POC who rebutted did NOT say they were shocked that US spies, but simply that they were upset by it and think it's a huge issue... Expand Tim Wise @timjacobwise 13h …or about caricatures of my argument (as in, I was "speaking for all POC")…I said no POC shocked that US spies. So far no one has refuted.. Expand Tim Wise @timjacobwise 13h …and no one has actually showed how that argument is wrong. All criticism of me has been ad hominem and about things I did not say... Expand Tim Wise @timjacobwise 13h ...That said…I have merely argued here that the SHOCK about US spying is indicative of race/class/religious privilege…. Expand Tim Wise @timjacobwise 13h The national security state is a normative condition to be attacked. No argument there. On that level, I agree with Greenwald/Snowden... Expand Tim Wise @timjacobwise 13h But y'all know that most of the libertarian "get govt off my back" jackasses making a hero of Snowden don;t give a shit about profiling... Expand
