      @very droll Before Snowden's leaks, we "knew" the US spied on everyone, and we were fairly sure it also spied on its own citizens, but aside from a few things here and there, there was little proof, and we didn't know the methods. Snowden leaked the actual NSA documents that proved what that organisation was doing, how it was doing it, and to what extent.
      This is the difference between knowing your neighbour is dealing drugs because you often see random people dropping by and they seem to own fancy stuff that unemployed people usually don't, and knowing what drugs they're dealing, who they're selling it to, and how they make it, because you saw into their garage and all the stuff was there.

    Snowden looks like a very chill dude. He's very smart, knows how to crack a joke every now and then, but the thing I like about Snowden is when he does crack a joke, he's very dry about it. Like he doesn't think it's gonna be funny but he knows it is, but he also doesn't go about it like an extravert does about a joke.

    • @ErnestHemingwayy
      @ErnestHemingwayy 5 років тому +43

      quick personality analysis says that's he's an highly intelligent introvert. In general these personalities are super likeable because they can crack jokes like no one else (you need to be really smart to have the smallest hint of a comedian) but they're not waving their arms around, screaming every phrase, or gesticulating too much.
      He would have been a fucking great Spider-Man :D (if you can see similarities between him and Tom Holland's version of Spidey, it's no coincidence). Also Keanu Reeves.

      About Edward, the most likeable part is how he's actually a genius (especially when you read his book) and yet soo humble about it. That's just so graceful.

      Im extravert so your essentially saying you do not like ppl that make jokes but are very passionate about them. You dont like those that think its gonna be funny but know it isnt, but also you dislike those that go about it like an extravert does about a joke....
      Theres no such thing as an extravert. do you realize if the world had people thatvwere strictly one or the other how one dimensional tethered an individual woukd be. It woukd be like you’re communicating with a robot. There’s a fakery too it. Human beings are too dynamic to be called even both.
      So you just dont like it when someone goes about it knowing its funny and feeding off the energy when telling it. You prefer that when they tell the joke you receive all of the energy of it that they constrain/reserve themselves partaking in good vibes. Something about someone going about it in this way you find to be showboaty, perhaps threatened by the charisma of a person.
      I love all walks of life the mellow types the high energy types, Sometimes I listen sometimes I speak. its an interplay of both energies.

He only denies he is a journalist the same reason Hitler denied he was the leader when Hindenburg was alive, or how the Prime Minister has to deny he's the real leader of the UK, because of credibility. I'd sure as shit say he's educated me more than any reporter has. Not to mention Comedians are the ultimate reporters and journalists because their trade shields them from the political BS that modern newscasters have shoved on them.
