I couldn't believe my eyes! Edward Snowden had just tweeted a picture of me! I was holding a giant sign I'd had printed with one of his best tweets This was back in July... I felt it was especially apropos after the FBI director pardoned Hillary Clinton for something anyone else would have been put in prison for...
...and I held it outside the local FBI office one day along with other protesters and I held it again at the Hillary Clinton rally in Portsmouth, NH the next day. A pic of it got back to Snowden, who then tweeted the pic... of me holding his tweet. Ha! Totally meta...
His words—"Life is strange"—definitely rang true as I sat pondering how cool it was that because of technology, we are all still able to connect with one another, half way around the world, even in political exile. The facade of power that the ruling class wants to subject us all to is crumbling. They can't stop the free thinkers!
