Of course we're not. As a leftist currently screaming my lungs out on behalf of our IC, I find this entire political moment absurd to no end, but one can surely see the differences between US and Russian intel services without white-washing the sins of the former.

Much of what FBI does is precisely what FSB does. Far too many people treat the phrase FSB as just magic word--it's not. By treating it as such we dodge discussions about law enforcement in counterproductive ways, particularly wrt tech.

Sure, much of. But at a time when external and internal forces are pushing towards transitioning our entire society toward Russian style kleptocracy, and the FBI are on the frontlines of pushing back against that ill, I'm standing with them. Doesn't mean I'm closing my eyes.
