Ok so we have to play by the rules to the absolute T. But our adversaries like China/Russia can play dirty and anyway they want, because you say justice is absolute and black and white. Great.
Whereas China/Russia has people tracking dissidents etc.
Not even in the same realm.
Im saying give a more nuanced legal approach so we can defend ourselves.
If you think the USA doesn't track dissidents you've been walking around with your eyes and ears shut.
If you hear rumblings about a heist it makes sense to monitor the conspirators even if they have not yet done the heist.
Being a dissident, not so much.
This seems like a fairly extraordinary claim that you haven’t backed with either evidence or logic.
If you want to die on the hill of a subjective concept of morality, fine. But I don’t and I don’t think most do.
