There's really no need for the comparisons. Both versions are terrible, who cares which is worse. How we go about fixing it should be the topic of discussion.

No, one is clearly much worse than the other. Many journalists have been killed in Russia, for example.

I imagine if a Russian version of Snowden ever occurred, he wouldn't remain alive to continue leaking documents.

So the West and Russia are equally bad? Who cares which is worse? The people who live there.
