Where did it say that? Seems like he’s mostly arguing for better onchain privacy
Bottom pull quote: “Cast a vote, but don’t join a cult. They are not our tribe. They are not your personality. They have their own interests, their own values, their own things they’re chasing. Try to get what you need from them, but don’t give yourself to them, even if you have to vote for them,” Snowden stated."
What Tribe is it that Snowden is in that he thinks who he is talking to belongs to?

All the ads really obstruct the content but he's talking about politicians afaict:
Meanwhile, Snowden ended his speech by urging the crypto community to be wary of politicians seeking to gain their support. He advised Bitcoiners to remain cautious of political figures who may be trying to win over the crypto community for their own agendas.

Yeah, but he's in f'ing Russia? I mean, if anyone has become someone's bitch, the guy that goes to hang with Putin is on up there in my book.
Edit: Especially if you are talking about TRIBES?

I think he all ready went where he thought he should. I just don't think you can talk about "tribes" after having made that decision--especially in the US. For all I know, Snowden's tribe is "Putin".

He is encouraging tribalism. "Not our tribe".
**and encouraging what kind of tribalism instead?

Guantanamo or Moscow, you decide... :-)

Well, first, if memory serves, he stopped off in China. China and Russia share a similar outlook when it comes to the US generally speaking. Both of them are rife with communism.

I don't know what his point is. I'm not even sure he knows what his point is.
