I know there's a difference between a traitor and whistleblower. There are whistleblowers that have helped the people become deprogrammed from their brainwashing indoctrination to keep them from being easily controlled puppets for government authorities who only care about money and power. The rise of mass surveillance, censorship, heavy government regulations, people being replaced by machines in the businesses, indoctrination institutions disguised as public schools, social credit systems, gun control laws, and other things are threatening creative freedom, artistic freedom, intellectual freedom, artisans who are trying to find jobs with good wages and good employee benefits that will let them be creative with their hands in the midst of people being replaced by machines in the businesses, job opportunities, and so forth. If being a traitor means helping people not become easily brainwashed puppets for authorities, then there are whistleblowers who have been traitors. Who knows if there are whistleblowers that were willing to get hit by a bus to protect people from tyrannical governments?
