"Nah we're not playing your game of [responding to the point you actually made]"

The question is why US spying is treated differently than Chinese and Russian. The answer is that China and Russia behave dramatically differently than the US does. I never made any claim as to the US being some flawless benevolent entity, but I made a clear argument (that you've not refuted) as to why most of the global community views them differently.



> The answer is that China and Russia behave dramatically differently than the US does.

yes. they are open about what they do whereas we do it covertly

> why most of the global community views them differently.

"most of the global community"

you mean the west, which is not even a majority of the global community.

but even if it was a majority, again, because we do it covertly, we hide it and everyone only sees the good things until someone like snowden comes along and leaks our dirty laundry.
